The Best Pod Coffee Machines With pod coffee machines, you simply place a sealed capsule with roasted or ground beans into the machine.

Choosing coffee machines for pods for you depends on your personal preferences and lifestyle. 1.

One downside to this machine is that it could be noisy, but it isn't a major issue. It's also small and will fit in small counters.

The machine also offers T discs for hot chocolate and tea as well. We found the coffee it made to be of a excellent quality, though slightly less than that of some of the other pod machines we have reviewed in this round-up. It also steamed the milk for the caffe latte in a short time and produced a rich taste without being too thick. It is important to remember that the milk that is frothy contains sugar which, though not a major issue it might not be to everyone's liking. The Tassimo My Way is easy to keep clean, with the drip tray, the removable components of the brewing unit, and the water tank all being dishwasher-safe.

Lavazza Lungo Pod Machine This Nespresso compatible pod coffee machine, designed in collaboration with Sage by Lavazza is among the most attractive machines on the market. The machine is constructed of sturdy and attractive materials. It has a neat steam wand that can be adjusted to make cappuccinos or lattes, as well as a stainless-steel milk jug. The machine can brew espresso double espressos, lungos, gran lungos, mugs and altos using an incredibly thick layer of frosting. As with all pod machines you load the pod via an opening on top of the machine and then drop it in place. The machine pierces the capsule and then closes it in such a way that when you press the lever, the pod falls into a specially empty pod tray underneath the drip tray. It's not the fastest machine for brewing, taking 30 seconds for a shot of espresso and 90 seconds for a lungo – however, the results are always impressive, with great crema and a rich, smooth taste. The machine will also inform you when it's time to refill the tank of water or the pod bin. This machine is a top seller due to the fact that you can use any Lavazza pod. There are seven total, including ground espresso (Qualita Rossa) and decaffeinated (Dek Cremoso), and two organic coffees. Bio). The pod coffee machine isn't cheap but if you combine it with pod delivery, the price can be similar to the cost of an ordinary bean-to-cup machine. The compact design of this machine makes it possible to fit into the tiniest kitchens. The pods are also recyclable, so you can put them in food waste bins for your council bins or garden compost. 4. Nespresso Vertuo Pod Machine Nespresso machines are among the best pod coffee makers for those who are looking for a fast, reliable, and consistent brew. They heat up fast and are easy to use. Just insert a capsule and press a button and you're good to go. They also create a rich crema that can be added to your drinks for added flavour and thickness. The official pods are not inexpensive and you'll have to buy them. The Vertuo line uses a different technology than OriginalLine machines that work with espresso capsules (and are still in existence). They scan each capsule's barcode, automatically adapting the brewing parameters to make a perfect cup. They also have a centrifusion machine which spins the capsules to get the best flavor and thickest crema. However, the machines aren't as intuitive as some of our other picks. For instance the lid is only opened when the machine is ready, and it takes about 30 minutes to heat up enough to be able to fit into a capsule. They don't include a milk frother as do other pod coffee makers on this list, so you'll need an additional PS90 or so to buy an additional Aeroccino for those who want to make lattes and cappuccinos. They also require more regular maintenance than other models—refilling the water tank, emptying the pod containers, and decaling. However, they have an application that reminds you of these duties and provides tools such as store locators and capsule recycling. If you pair your machine with an IntelliPort, you can even use voice commands to control it which is a great feature if you're making coffee in the dark at 4am, or have a weak hand. 5. SMEG Barista Pod Machine This sleek pod coffee maker is the love child of a well-known Italian brand and a renowned kitchen appliances company. It features the retro, sleek curves that SMEG are famous for, and it can brew both lungo and espresso drinks. It also has a programmable shot setting, dual-height drip trays, and a pod bin that can be removed. This coffee maker makes it simple to whip up a quick cup of single-shot or double-shot espresso in the morning, or a lungo in the break at work. Its easy-to-use control panel is sleek and doesn't distract from its function. It comes with three different baskets for different types of capsules. You can even use loose ground beans (although you'll need an additional grinder). The SMEG Barista Pod Machine doesn't include a milk pitcher however, it has an inbuilt Pannarello milk frother, which froths both soymilk and cowmilk well. It also has a 51mm portafilter, which is smaller than a standard commercial-style filter. It is pressurised so you won't have the taste of stale food that is left behind. It also comes with a Tamper that doubles as scoop. The SMEG is one of the most expensive pod machines on our list, but it's definitely worth it if you're a lover of the retro style or like the ability to make espresso-based drinks. This is a great choice for those who are new to coffee making and don't want to tackle the difficulty of grinding, measuring and tamping the beans yourself.
