Whether you’re a beginner barista or an Arabica aficionado, we’ve got the perfect coffee machine for you. With our handy guide, you’ll soon be heading to coffee heaven on a fluffy cloud of milky microfoam.
Prepping coffee can be a fine art, and the bar pressure plays its part. The higher the number, the stronger your drink will taste. We’ve got pod machines that start at 3 bars for a smooth, light latte to top-notch, 15-bar barista models that pack a punch of flavour. For the perfect espresso, 9 makes a happy medium. Now it’s time to find the perfect brew for you.
Some espresso coffee machines come with built-in grinders that take you straight from bean to cup. By using two abrasive surfaces, burr grinders are known for creating the perfect consistency to make the most of your favourite cuppa joe. You can even set the consistency to suit the type of brew you’re making, so it’s completely tailored to your taste.

All of our coffee machines are designed for home use. You can choose from different types of machine, including pod, filter, espresso and bean-to-cup.
With so many options, it’s tough to know where to begin, so here’s a few of the main benefits of different coffee machines to get you started. If you’re on the go a lot and need tasty coffee quickly, you might want to go for a pod machine. If you want to recreate a barista-quality brew, then go for a bean-to-cup. If you love espresso, rely on the technique of a specialist espresso machine. Or if you want a machine to make a big batch in one go, opt for a filter coffee machine.
We’d recommend giving your machine a quick clean after every use, but the amount you’ll need to perform a more thorough clean will depend on the type. Pod machines are typically the easiest to clean as they can be flushed out with water and sometimes need descaling. You may find advice on when and how to do this on the box or in your instructions.
Research published by Statista Research Department, tells us that the typical machine will last between 6 and 10 years when cleaned and maintained properly. That’s a lot of tasty coffee in one house!
Espresso is a classic coffee made using pressurised water to create a concentrated coffee served in small, strong shots. Ristretto and Lungo are fancy names for espresso made with either more, or less water. Ristretto is typically a condensed version using less water, while a lungo uses twice the amount. Easy.
