Overall, I would recommend a De'Longhi machine. Eletta explorer if you want cold brew, Magnifica Plus if not, Rivelia if you need interchangeable hoppers, and EVO Next if you are on a budget. KitchenAid is good too. Phillips, Seaco and Gaggia are good machines but dose lower and produce less intense

Any espresso machine can do ice drinks. Almost all iced drinks in coffee shops are made with hot espresso brewed over ice. You can get cold frothed milk from a handheld frother. Some machines like the Eletta Explore have an actual low temp extended extraction mode that makes cold brew coffee (not es

I really didn't like those beans, I recommend trying new beans from a local roaster/shop. I just had a Nespresso pod today for the first time in 2 months, just to see and for the ease ... Very happy with my DeLonghi Eletta Explore. 🤮

Magnifica Plus is a better machine and when dialed in produces the best espresso of any home super auto and is currently $1000. The Eletta Explore at $1700 doses slightly less but still produces espresso better than anything from other manufactures when dialed in. It has more features and can do tru

DeLonghi Eletta explore or a KF8. Jura machines are great but painful for maintenance. DeLonghi and Kitchen aid have removable brew units.

We recently tried a Delonghi Eletta Explore trying to go for the cheaper super auto route but found the temperatures for milk drinks were pretty terrible for us (not hot enough) You will not find a superauto that meets your needs then, unless you are willing to spend the money to get to semi commerc

I went with De‘Longhi Eletta Explorer because it can do a travel mug for size as well as two different frothers, one for hot and other for cold. Only negative is it only holds one bean at a time. I got it when they did a 33% off sale for all models about a month ago. Not sure if that is a preview fo

I would never buy a refurbished super auto. The only exception being factory refurbished with warranty. While Jura has a good reputation with their refurbished products I would never speed $2K on a used super auto. $2K is what the z10 should cost new. The espresso from Jura machines, while good, is
