How to choose your bean-to-cup machine ?
The beverage variety
Do you like to enjoy a cappuccino twice a week ? Or you are a fan of starbuck ? Then it's better to choose a cappuccino machine that will provide you with a creamy cup in just a minute, rather than a manual system that you will maybe use for fewer options.
From long and sweet coffee in the morning, to dark ristretto after lunch or fancy flat white or caffee latte in the afternoon, many beverage possibilities can be offered to satisfy all the gourmets...
The level of convenience
The milk system type
- Manual steam nozzle: Enjoy a milk-based drink every now and then, or practice your latte art skills like a barista.
- Milk access technology: Our semi-automatic cappuccino system crafts a creamy foam for you, which you can then combine with an espresso or long coffee. Infinite milk-based recipes, at your fingertips!
- Use the built-in milk pot and One Touch cappuccino function, to prepare the creamiest foam and then keep it in the fridge.
- Advanced milk technology: Insert the tube into your milk container, place your cup under the nozzle and select your choice in drink. Thanks to the One Touch cappuccino function, get a perfectly foamed beverage at the right temperature - directly in your cup.
Enjoy one or two cups, for shared moments alone or with your loved ones. The semi-automatic cleaning makes it easy to use and maintain.
The Intuitive features
The intuitive light indicator doesn't only guide you through the coffee making process, but also shows you how to clean and maintain your machine. You'll exactly know when to refill the water tank and coffee beans, or empty the coffee grounds or drip tray. Some machines can propose personalized lighting for everyday use, or even assign a color to your personnalized drinks profile.
Level of personalization
Save your and your family's favorite drinks to their own profile - and access them at the touch of a button.
Prefer a creamy cappuccino in the morning and a strong espresso at midday? Then program your favorites into your machine. Or if you're looking for a classic beverage, made the right way - choose one of our pre-programmed drinks and adjust the volume, strength and temperature to your liking. Or simply enjoy it as it is!
Design and compactness
The right capacity for your household
For intense coffee lovers or big families, make sure to consider machines with above 2L capacity water tank. It will avoid you too many refill and ensure you the best coffee experience.
Our machines are equipped with at least a 250g bean container capacity, which can be filled with a standard bag of coffee. Little advice: to keep all the aromas of your coffee, better buy tiny coffee bags.
