The Best Capsule coffee machine Capsule Coffee Machines of 2017

This machine is ideal for Nespresso fans who want to get rid of the tiny capsules. It utilizes larger Vertuo capsules and scans the barcodes of each capsule to automatically adjust the settings to the desired size of drink.

It comes with espresso and ristretto options and the option of saving drinks you've made. It also comes with an adjustable height dripping tray as well as an energy-saving sleep setting.

1. Nespresso Vertuo Plus

The Nespresso Vertuo Plus is one of two new models to join the Nespresso range in the year 2017. It's smaller than the other models, which allows it to fit in more space. And it comes in a wider choice of colors, too.

The machine uses the latest incarnation of Nespresso's pod-based coffee system. Vertuo Plus spins the capsule at up to 7000rpm instead of puncturing it to pump hot water into it. The brew is created by mixing ground coffee machine with capsules with water. The capsule then drips out of an opening in the middle and through 18 smaller holes, resulting in a rich crema on your drink. The machine can make both espresso and lungo-style drinks.

It reads the barcode at the bottom of each capsule to customize the method of blending for each. You can't use capsules of other brands that use Vertuo plus, as only Nespresso pods have a barcode.

It's easy to use, by pressing a single button across the top. Simply press the silver lever at the front, and it will raise to reveal a place for your chosen pod. Then, drop it in the right spot and press the single button to start the brewing.

The machine comes with a 40-ounce water reservoir and it automatically releases capsules used up internally. It has a heating period of 15-20 seconds, and an automatic shut-off after nine minutes. This is a great device that is reliable and simple to use with low maintenance. If you're looking to eliminate an abundance of waste, be sure you have a reliable recycling system for used pods.

2. Lavazza Vertuo Pop

This compact machine from Lavazza is a striking addition to your coffee bar. The clever Centrifusion Technology scans the barcode of your chosen capsule to give you the precise amount of water for the perfect cup. It comes in a variety of colors and can make up to five different sizes including double espresso.

The machine is a bit more sophisticated than Nespresso machines, since it can heat and dispense milk. It's still more reliable than a home espresso machine and is a great alternative for those who don't feel comfortable using a manual coffeemaker. The Jolie comes with a huge chrome lever which opens and shuts the capsule slot, and a 0.9-litre water tank is positioned behind it. There's a large capsule bin too, which will hold ten of your used capsules at one time.

Similar to the Vertuo Plus, it's easy to use and can be heated within a matter of minutes. It's also quiet in operation and requires very little energy, making it an excellent choice for electric bills.

This model comes with one disadvantage: it only works with Lavazza capsules and not the Nespresso range. This may not be a problem for most people but it could be a problem for those who want to switch between brands. If you decide to purchase this machine, make sure to get 100 capsules that can be reused with the purchase. These capsules are not cheap, but they will save you money in the long run as they are less expensive than Nespresso pods.

3. Tassimo My Way

Fully automatic machine with a very simple operation. It features a broad platform that can be adjusted to different heights for tall glasses or small espresso cups. The numbered buttons make it easy to pick the settings you want. This machine allows you to keep four different options. It's an excellent choice for couples or families with different tastes. The machine is energy-efficient and has an easy-to-read indicator that lets you know when the tank is full or when descaling is needed (which requires the use of a service disc, which is placed in a slot with the instructions).

Like the other Tassimo system machines it's designed to work with the company's branded barcoded T-Discs which include everything from coffee, tea and hot chocolate to cold drinks and frothy milk. Intellibrew technology detects the type and adjusts the brewing time and temperature as well as the strength to suit. This stops you from accidentally changing settings that aren't logical, such as the strength of coffee with milk. It also ensures your drink tastes consistently good.

The My Way 2 offers a wide range of flavours including Costa favorites Kenco, L'OR, and Cadbury's. You can make lattes, cappuccinos and even frothy Americanos.

The My Way 2 has an energy-saving standby mode, and it's easy to clean. The water tank can be easily removed and filled with fresh water. In contrast to other pod machines it doesn't have a built-in method for disposing of the old T discs, however it has launched a partnership with Podback to let you recycle them in a local scheme.

4. Jolie

A diminutive pod coffee machine that's been available for a few years, Jolie stands up well against the latest models. Its slimline design occupies less counter space than larger machines, and its controls are easy to operate. You can select lungo or espresso by pressing a button and a cup holder lets you use regular cups or mugs, too.

It's not expensive however the Jolie is a good choice for anyone after a basic capsule coffee maker that produces excellent espresso with minimum effort. A handy steam wand is included too, making it possible to add milk to a cappuccino or latte. It's also one of the quietest we've tested which means it won't interfere with sleep-ins for the family in the early morning.

SMEG is renowned for its beautiful kitchen equipment, and this retro-looking coffee pod machine isn't different (choose between cream, black or red). It's compact enough to be able to fit in between other appliances on your counter top but doesn't skimp on functionality. One press makes a short or long lungo. The energy saving mode is activated after two minutes and seven days without use.

The Jolie is a great choice for those who love the retro style of SMEG or you want to personalize your coffee more than the big brands can offer. It includes an app that has more barista recipes as well as a Bloom & Brew setting that prepares the capsule to be wet and infuses it to make a better cup and other settings let you control the amount of water used and also adjust the coffee's temperature and pressure.

5. Infinissima

Whether you're in the market for a quick cup of coffee to kick start your day or an indulgent morning espresso, the Infinissima has you covered. It's a capsule machine that is automatic with a sleek appearance that is easy to use. It's a distinctive design inspired by the infinity sign and also includes a triangular water tank and an globular pod and bean coffee machine holder.

The Infinissima has a unique exterior, but it does not compromise on quality. It uses an advanced system of high-pressure to extract the most flavor from each coffee capsule, and produces a professional-quality cafe-style crema. It also has a rapid heat-up time so that your drinks are ready in minutes. It also comes with a large, removable water tank that measures 1.2L so you can prepare several cups without having to refill.

The Infinissima can also brew cold and hot drinks. The adjustable temperature settings allow you to select from a variety of beverages, including iced coffee and macarchiato latte. It has an in-cup heating plate that keeps your drink warm, preventing it from cooling too quickly. The Infinissima comes with a timer that will turn off the machine after an amount of time. This helps to improve energy efficiency.

The Infinissima is simple to use, featuring simple controls and a clear LCD screen that lets you choose your beverage options. It also comes with an auto-rising pod coffee machines holder which makes it easier to put the capsules in and fill the water tank. It also comes with a convenient filter and cleaning kit that allow you to reuse used capsules. If you're in search of a high-quality capsule coffee maker in Qatar, the Infinissima is a great option.
