The best capsule Coffee machine Capsule Coffee Machines of 2017

If you're a lover of Nespresso but want to step away from their tiny pods look no further than this machine. It is compatible with larger Vertuo capsules, reading the barcode to automatically adjust settings to suit your desired drink size.

It comes with espresso and ristretto options and an option to save drinks you've made. It also has a height-adjustable dripping tray and an energy-saving sleep setting.

1. Nespresso Vertuo Plus

The Nespresso Vertuo Plus was one of two new machines that came into the Nespresso line in the year 2017. It's a bit smaller than other models, allowing it to fit in more space. It's also available with a broader selection of colors too.

The machine utilizes the latest version of Nespresso's pod-based system. Vertuo Plus spins the capsule at up to 7000rpm, instead of puncturing it to pump hot water into it. This brew is made by mixing ground coffee pod machines and water. The capsule drips from the 18 smaller holes and through the central hole, giving your drink a more dense crema. The machine can make coffee and lungo-style drinks.

It reads the barcode located at the bottom of each capsule to customize its blending method for each. This is why you cannot use capsules from other brands using the Vertuo Plus Nespresso's capsules - only Nespresso's own contain the barcode.

There's just one button to press across the top of the machine and it's simple to use. Press the silver lever on the front to raise it up and reveal the space for your chosen pod. Drop it in place and press the single button to start making.

The machine comes with a 40 ounce reservoir of water. It also automatically removes capsules that are used from the inside. It has a heating time of about 15 seconds and an automatic shut-off after nine minutes. This machine is easy to operate and reliable, and requires minimum maintenance. If you're looking to eliminate the waste that is generated, make sure you have a reliable recycling system for your used pods.

2. Lavazza Vertuo Pop

This compact machine from Lavazza is a stunning addition to your coffee area. The innovative Centrifusion Technology scans the barcode on your chosen capsule to dispense the exact amount of water you need for the perfect cup. It comes in a variety colors and comes in up to five different sizes including double espresso.

The machine is more sophisticated than Nespresso pod machines, as it also offers the option of heating and dispensing milk. It's still more secure than a traditional home espresso machine, and is a good alternative for those who aren't at ease using a manual espresso maker. The Jolie is equipped with a large lever that can be opened and closed by the capsule slot. A 0.9-litre tank can be inserted behind it. There's a large capsule bin that can hold ten capsules that you've used up.

It is easy to use and heats up within minutes. It's also extremely quiet and consumes very little energy, making it a good choice for your electric bills.

The model has one drawback: it only works with Lavazza capsules and not the Nespresso range. This might not be a problem for most people, but it could be a concern for those who prefer to switch between brands. If you do choose to purchase this machine, be sure you purchase a set of 100 reusable capsules with your purchase. These capsules are not inexpensive, but they'll save you money in the long run as they are less expensive than Nespresso pods.

3. Tassimo My Way

A fully automatic machine that's very easy to use. It has a large cup platform that can be set at different heights, to fit tall glasses and little espresso cups, and it's easy to choose your preferred settings thanks to numerals on the buttons. You can also save four different variations of your own which makes it a great choice for families and couples with differing preferences. The machine is energy efficient and comes with an indicator that lets you know when it's time for descaling (which requires an instruction disc that is tucked into a slot).

Like all Tassimo system machines, it's designed to work with the company's branded barcoded T-Discs, which contain everything from coffee, tea and hot chocolate to cold drinks and frothy milk. It's equipped with Intellibrew technology that automatically detects the type of drink and adjusts the brewing time, temperature, and strength accordingly. This helps you avoid accidentally changing settings that are not sensible like the strength of coffee brewed with milk. It also ensures that your drink tastes consistently good.

The My Way 2 has a wide selection of flavours to choose from, featuring more than 50 famous brands including Costa favourites, Kenco, L'OR and Cadbury's. You can make cappuccinos, lattes and even frothy Americanos.

It is easy to clean and features a standby mode that saves energy. The water tank can be easily removed and filled with fresh tap water. It does not have a built-in mechanism to dispose of used T Discs. Instead, it has partnered with Podback, a recycling company that allows you to recycle the discs with an online program.

4. Jolie

Jolie is a tiny pod coffee maker that has been on market since only a few years. It holds its own against more modern models. Its small, slimline body takes up less space on countertops than many larger machines, while its simple controls make it easy to use. You can choose from espresso or lungo at the push of the button and a movable cup holder allows you to use standard cups and mugs as well.

It's not expensive however the Jolie is a great option for anyone looking for an affordable capsule coffee maker that produces excellent espresso with minimum effort. The Jolie includes an excellent steam wand which allows you to add milk to make a cappuccino. It's also among the quietest we've tested which means it won't disturb family sleep-ins in the early morning.

SMEG is known for its fashionable kitchen appliances and this retro-styled pod coffee machine is no exception (choose from red, cream or black). It's small enough to be able to fit between other appliances on your counter top but doesn't compromise on features. One press makes a short or long lungo. The energy saving mode is activated after two minutes and seven days of no usage.

If you're a lover of SMEG's 1950s design aesthetic or want the ability to tailor your coffee more than the top brands, the Jolie is worth considering. It comes with a Bloom & Brew feature that pre-wettes the capsule before it infuses it for a better cup. Other settings let you control the amount water used, adjust the coffee temperature and also adjust the pressure.

It's a capsule machine that is automatic with a sleek design that is easy to use. It's got a unique design inspired by the infinity symbol and includes an oblong pod holder and triangular water tank that looks like modern art.

Although the Infinissima's unique exterior is cool however, it doesn't compromise on quality. It makes use of an advanced system of high-pressure to extract the maximum flavor from each coffee capsule and produces a professional-quality cafe-style crema. It's got a quick heating time, so your coffee will be ready in a matter of minutes. It also has a huge removable 1.2L water tank, which means you can make several cups before having to refill.
