pixiepixel 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 Hi all I am contemplating to get a coffee machine for my hb since he is a coffee lover. All I know is that there are many types of coffee machine, generally those that goes by filter (with your own grinded beans); or those that has the beans or capsules by the same manufacturer. Any recommendation for a coffee machine? I am thinking of buying grinded beans from coffeebean or starbucks etc and get a filter type of coffee machine for convenience sake. Something mid-range between $400-$800? Brand, Model# welcomed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can continuously make 10 cups (vs having to clean up the powder after every cup), no mess, no fuss, 16 different flavours packed individually (keeps it fresh too!) so you don't have to finish a packet of powder before opening another one. The aerocinno that comes with it churns out perfect milk at the perfect temperature at a press of a button. Get the Citiz (you can decide whether you want the aerocinno separately or together) coz the rest of the models can't put tall glasses for lattes. Unless you always take espresso. Haha I can go on and on about the goodness of Nespresso, but go see it for yourself! They have a counter at Taka and a boutique at ION. You can ask them for a sample (which was what totally won us over). Our Nespresso machine is our favourite buy in the entire house! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

achtung7 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2010 Saeco.. nothing beats tamping your own powder, plus you decide the type of beans u wanna use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelAng 1 Report post Posted September 16, 2010 I second that! I had Jura, Saeco and now finally Nespresso for the last 1 1/2 years. It's just so easy and can sample any one of the 16 favours without having to wait till the existing favour runs out in the machine. And cleaning is just so simple.. i love my nespresso a lot! nespresso is the best.. easy to make, easy to cleanup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
