The Best coffee machine and pods Pod Machine
The most elegant pod machine we've seen, this brushed-steel model has the signature Sage quality and ease of use. After switching on, it heats up and makes a delicious espresso or a slightly longer lungo within 30 seconds.
Models for pods are a great alternative to bean-to-cup machines. They take the clumsiest components of making coffee off your hands, such as grinding and measuring grounds.
1. Speedy
Pod machines can be set up and operated faster than espresso machines. They can typically make a cup of coffee in 30 minutes. But they come at an expense as the pre-portioned pods of coffee used in these machines are generally more expensive than freshly roasted beans, and many are also not recyclable (though some companies now offer recycling bags for free and UPS labels to return the pods coffee machines).
The Nespresso CitiZ has one of the fastest pod machines on the market, thanks to the barcode scanner that scans each compatible pod's code prior to brewing. This ensures consistently top-quality coffee every time. There is almost no chance of having a bad drink. The machine is among the tiniest and lightest available. It doesn't require an additional milk container and its compact footprint makes it easy to fit into the smallest kitchens.
The CitiZ isn't the most efficient machine to reduce the environmental impact. The CitiZ does not have an automatic descaling feature. You'll need to manually descale the machine every 300 cups for hard water and 1200 cups for soft water. Once the filter cartridge is out, you'll need to replace it with a fresh one. This can be costly for certain users.
The Tassimo Vivy 2 is another fast machine that has buttons that can be customized and the option of using either ground coffee or ESE pods that are pre-dosed, tampered and packed between filter paper. This model is also B-Corp Certified, which means it is committed to lessening its negative impact on the environment and its workforce. The only downside is the time it takes to heat up. Once it's done, it can brew one cup in around 35 seconds.
If you're after an elegant, stylish machine that can handle a variety of different drink sizes and styles, take a look at the Vertuo Creatista from Nespresso. This sleek machine, created in collaboration with Sage is not just simple to use, but also comes with an ice cream wand, an stainless steel jug and milk frother.
2. Removable parts
A pod coffee maker's ease of use is a major draw and the top models are a breeze to use. Most machines rely on the same basic mechanism to brew your cup: water is heated in an internal reservoir, and then pushed through the capsules you choose and extracted to create rich hot java. The majority of brands offer various sizes of drinks to meet different requirements. You can also save your own settings to streamline the process.
Keurig's K-Cups and Nestle's Nespresso VertuoLine series are the two major players in the market, yet both offer a variety of capsules from top roasters and brands. Some pods are able to be used just once before they are discarded however, others can be used a number of times. You'll need a strategy for the pods you've used to avoid them from being thrown away.
The SMEG we tested has a removable water reservoir that is easy to fill. It also automatically dispenses a new capsule after the previous one cools down. It can make espresso and lungo drinks and comes with eight different blends for variety. This brewer will appeal to coffee lovers who are looking to move away from drip coffee.
In our tests of the Tassimo My Way 2 proved to be the most enjoyable to use. Its sleek design is an attractive addition to your counter and it opens with a light tap to reveal a hidden compartment to store your empty pods. The machine comes with an in-built water filter system that is perfect for areas with hard water.
The machine is fast and can make standard coffee (240ml) and ristretto and lungo espresso drinks. The controls are simple to operate, using switches that resemble airplanes, which can be easily retracted and a lever which retracts to reveal the hole to place into your coffee maker. It requires a little force to close, but our testers, including those who have weak hand and mobility felt comfortable.
3. Size
The best coffee pod machines eliminate all the mess that comes with coffee making. All you have to do is put a pod in the machine, push a button and let it brew. You will still need to clean the machine from time time but not as often as you would with a bean-to-cup cup or espresso maker. The pod machines are also smaller than their bigger counterparts, so they can fit on the counter and be stored out of sight when not being used.
If a coffee pod machine is the right option for you depends on your preferences and what you're looking to get out of it. The majority of pod machines are easy to use, however some provide more options for customization. The variety of pods, brew size options and milk frothing capabilities are all important to help find the perfect coffee pod machine for your needs.
The most popular pod-based coffee machines are Nespresso, Keurig and similar brands. However there are a few more recent competitors that are worth looking at. Bruvi utilizes a unique system of pods, called B-Pods, which can only be used in its machines. These pods have a barcode on the underside that the machine scans to automatically adjust the brewing settings.
This approach means the machine removes all the guesswork the process of making a cup, and guarantees that every drink is made perfectly every time. It can save your custom drinks to a button to allow you to create them using a single button.
Other machines, like Sage's My Way, offer greater control over your coffee than most machines, allowing you to choose a specific size and temperature for each cup. It's a bit more expensive than many other models but it offers the polished stainless steel construction and top-quality customer service that's which is synonymous with the brand. It is a great choice for those who need an extra level of quality from their pod-based coffee maker.
While the majority of people will be using pod-based machines to make single-serve beverages, there are some larger models that can brew longer shots, known as lungos. The Lavazza A Modo Mio Smeg is a fantastic example of this, and it combines the retro fifties styling of SMEG with Italian coffee maker, Lavazza. It's not easy initially due to the airplane-style toggles but once you've gotten used to it, it is quick and easy to use. A lungo can be prepared in only 30 seconds.
4. Customization
One of the main reasons a pod coffee maker may not be the best choice for you is its lack of customization. If you don't purchase an additional milk frother, the only methods to add flavor or creaminess is to make use of an in-mug hot chocolate or tea option and to add milk to your coffee machine for pods manually. This won't be an issue for most people, but could be an issue for those who like a fully automatic experience in the morning.
Bosch's Intellibrew uses a barcode scanner to scan each capsule. It then automatically pre-wets and infuses, then dispensing the right amount of coffee to the particular kind of pod. It's a user-friendly and hands-off machine that does a great job but lacks options for customising drinks or varying brew strength. This will irritate some buyers but for others, the simple automation and range of cup lengths (espresso lungo, espresso and mug) it gives exactly what they need.
This coffee maker is very low maintenance. It only requires you to refill the tank with water, and decaffeinate it every so often. It is able to serve espresso-style shots and tall travel mugs with ease and, as previously mentioned, used pods are ejected to a hidden container which keeps your kitchen spotless. It also does a fantastic job of serving full-bodied, crema-topped espressos.
This machine is part of Smeg's 1950s-style collection. It's simple to use with simple buttons, and it can handle both ground coffee and ESE pods. It's only downside is the absence of a gauge that lets you know when it's time to descale, as well as the inability to set the maximum water level. You'll also need to buy the brand's capsules which can be expensive. Nevertheless, this is an excellent pod coffee maker for those looking for an attractive and convenient appliance that will provide them with a great service at an affordable cost. For those who want some variety, a large selection of third-party capsules is offered for this model. It's also compatible with the Nespresso Vertuo line.
