I thought it would be very helpful if I included a buying guide specifically for these bean to cup types of machines. Hopefully you will find this useful. There are a lot of these on the UK market, so this should help you find the right one.<\/p>\n
Let’s Start with the Price<\/h3>\n
You will have noticed from the above information, that these are an expensive option. The main reason for that is that they include so many features.<\/p>\n
As well as the built-in grinding feature, you can also make the full range of espresso style coffees. They are also packed with features and they also include programs and memory functions.Essentially you are paying for a lot of technology, good brands and high quality machines.<\/p>\n
Multi-Cup Brewing Options<\/h3>\n
It may not seem that important when first thinking of buying a coffee machine, about the number of cups it can make. Believe me it can really make a big difference.<\/p>\n
Quite a large number of these machines will only deliver one cup at a time. If you are not in a hurry, then that is probably not a big deal. If on the other hand you have a couple of people, hurrying out to work, then it gets important.<\/p>\n
The better brands will allow you to do two cups at once. If that feature is important to you, then make sure you buy one that allows you to do that.<\/p>\n
Cleaning and Descaling<\/h3>\n
Most of the better brands of bean to cup machines will have this feature included. The cheaper ones do not and trust me, cleaning up without that feature is a pain in the butt.<\/p>\n
If you want great tasting fresh coffee, then keeping your machine clean is an essential thing to do. Getting most of that done automatically is in my opinion, well worth paying a little extra for.<\/p>\n
Coffee Machine Noise<\/h3>\n
If you have never ground coffee beans before, then you may get an initial shock. It is quite a noisy process. If you are someone who prefers to buy pre-ground coffee, then buying one of these machines would be a waste of your money.<\/p>\n
One of the key purposes of a bean to cup coffee machine, is that you buy fresh beans, grind them so as they are super fresh and then brew.<\/p>\n
First thing in the morning or later in the evening when the kids are in bed, is not the best time to grind your beans. That said, if you want fresh and an amazing taste, then you will live with the noise.<\/p>\n
Size Matters<\/h3>\n
As a general rule a bean to cup machine will be bigger than a normal coffee machine. It is certainly much bigger than any of the pod or capsule types of machine.<\/p>\n
They can quite literally dominate your kitchen. The manufacturers are always working on making these more compact. That is difficult though as hopper size and brewing capacity is difficult to minimise.<\/p>\n
Now to make any good coffee the most important thing is that the coffee has to be as fresh as you can get it. Pre-ground coffee is convenient, but nothing is better than buying the beans and grinding those just before use.<\/p>\n
That really is what “Bean to cup” machines are all about. The alternative is to buy a\u00a0blade<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0burr grinder<\/a> and am alternative coffee machine without the built-in grinder.<\/p>\nNovember 5, 2022 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

If you are looking for an affordable bean to cup machine, this one is worth investigating in more detail.<\/p>\n Check Amazon UK<\/span><\/a> Average UK Price \u00a3350<\/p>\n Most people will be familiar with the TV chef Heston Blumenthal, and this is a machine that has has put his name to. As you can see it certainly has a most distinctive look.<\/p>\n We do like the stainless steel type appearance, though it will not work for everyone. It is the ideal pick though for more contemporary kitchens.<\/p>\n With this one you are starting to move up a gear and into the higher end and better featured bean to cup coffee machines. This is for things like water controlled temperatures, low pressure pre-coffee infusion for maximum flavour and an adjustable steam wand for texturing milk.<\/p>\n This machine includes a 1.8 litre removable water tank, removable tamper, Razor dose trimming tool, Portafilter, 4 filter baskets, milk jug, water filter for the tank and a full cleaning kit.<\/p>\n You do get a lot of great features for your money, and I think a pretty classy looking machine.<\/p>\n Check Amazon UK<\/a> Average UK Price \u00a3650-700<\/p>\n When picking a product out and stating that it is the best, this is of course a matter of opinion. There are quite a few to pick from and all of the leading coffee brands will have a few models of these available.<\/p>\n We are De’Longhi fans for sure and yes this brand can be an expensive choice, but in our opinion the quality is excellent.<\/p>\n As you can see this machine looks fantastic. The one shown is the silver version but it also comes in black.<\/p>\n It depends of course where you make your purchase but the average price for this model is \u00a3225-250 and that is very good value for money, though certainly still a big purchase.<\/p>\n It also comes with a 2-year guarantee.<\/p>\n It is stylish and yet any of these machines are about how they perform.<\/p>\n This one has a built-in burr grinder, a professional standard 15 bar pressure, a dual boiler system, frothing arm, removable brewing unit, drip tray, cup warmer and you can also adjust the height of the dispenser.<\/p>\n So if you fancy yourself as a barista and want to create Espresso, or an Americano simply by touching a button then this would be the one that I would recommend for you.<\/p>\n You can then extend the range of your coffee making skills and use the milk frother to make a range of lattes, cappuccinos and lungo.<\/p>\n You do not just have to take my word for it though. I always check the number of reviews on many other websites to see how they rate a particular model.<\/p>\n I like to see consistent ratings from a large number of buyers as that gives me a lot more confidence. This product has a rating score of 90<\/strong>% buyer satisfaction rate, which is excellent. That has been confirmed by over 5000 online buyer reviews.<\/p>\n Check Amazon UK<\/a>.

This is one of their best selling models.<\/p>\n There are a few subtle difference in this model when compared to the one above, and we will note them just below.<\/p>\n This one has a very clever design and it is a compact unit, that self cleans. That is always a very good start. It has a twin boiler so it makes coffee real fast.<\/p>\n It can also froth milk quickly and that allows you to make your cappuccinos and lattes, or any other coffee drink that you prefer. \u00a0This one also has a ceramic grinder which is the best for retaining the aroma and flavour of the beans.<\/p>\n The grain can of course be adjusted using a simple knob.

The higher end models in this price range have all got a particular design, and that of course is always a matter of personal choice.<\/p>\n You use the small dispensing buttons on the front of the machine to suit your own particular coffee tastes. This machine uses a ceramic burr grinder to grind the beans. It also has a removable brewing unit for quick and easy cleaning.<\/p>\n It has a hot water and steam nozzle and is Brita filter compatible. It can hold up to 250 grams of coffee beans, and has a 1.2 litre water tank. The really good news is that this machine has automatic cleaning and descaling.<\/p>\n 80% buyer satisfaction based on 200+ online buyer reviews<\/p>\n This is another option from the De’Longhi brand. With this one you are talking state of the art technology and high quality.<\/p>\n I have done a very detailed review on this ESAM6700<\/a> model from DeLonghi as this one is very expensive, but right up there for those who can afford the luxury of this model.<\/p>\n It is made from stainless steel, has 1,350 watts of power and measures 42\u00a0x 28.5 x 38 cm and weighs around 5 Kg.\u00a0There are 7 grind settings from course to fine which is ideal for stronger or milder coffee choices.<\/p>\n 76% buyer satisfaction based on 100+ online buyer reviews<\/p>\n Below you can find summary reviews of the very high end expensive bean to cup coffee machines.<\/p>\n This high end coffee machine is the first from the Jura brand to introduce a world first – pulse extracting process for outstanding barista quality espresso and ristretto<\/p>\n It comes with an integrated Aroma G3 burr grinder<\/p>\n The machine itself is a 15 bar pump using thermo-block heating technology for consistent quality coffee<\/p>\n It has 7 individually programmable speciality coffees<\/p>\n Can only be used with fresh coffee beans<\/p>\n It has very simple operating controls on the front of machine, using the modern TFT display allows you to easily create your personal coffee experience at the touch of a button.<\/p>\n It has an integrated fine foam milk frother which crowns milky specialities with feather light milk foam.<\/p>\n Check Amazon UK<\/a>. Average UK Price \u00a31,700<\/p>\n This is again from the popular chef brand and one that automatically grinds and tamps. It also has their trademark low pressure infusion system for a balanced extraction.<\/p>\n This high end machine also has automatic milk texturing and uses a triple Heat System.<\/p>\n It includes an an over pressure valve usually only found in commercial coffee machines. This valve limits the maximum pressure throughout the extraction, helping to prevent bitter flavours in the shot.<\/p>\n It grinds, doses and tamps your beans before getting to work on making your brew. It has a dual stainless steel boiler triple heat system. and an espresso boiler.<\/p>\n The espresso is extracted and milk is textured simultaneously so that both are ready at the same time and the delicate aromatics are captured and preserved for optimum results.<\/p>\n Check Amazon UK<\/a>. Average UK Price \u00a32,000<\/p>\n This is another high end machine with dedicated stainless steel boilers for steam and for espresso. It allows milk texturing and extraction consistently at 93 degrees Celsius.<\/p>\n The brew temperature, pre-infusion pressure and duration are all programmable to set to your taste at the press of a button.<\/p>\n Extraction is driven from a 15 bar Italian made pump and it comes with 480 ml stainless steel jug and cleaning tools.<\/p>\n Like the model above, this one also comes with a commercial grade over pressure valve prevents bitter flavours in the shot.<\/p>\n Check Amazon UK<\/a>. Average UK Price \u00a31250<\/p>\n I thought it would be very helpful if I included a buying guide specifically for these bean to cup types of machines. Hopefully you will find this useful. There are a lot of these on the UK market, so this should help you find the right one.<\/p>\n You will have noticed from the above information, that these are an expensive option. The main reason for that is that they include so many features.<\/p>\n As well as the built-in grinding feature, you can also make the full range of espresso style coffees. They are also packed with features and they also include programs and memory functions.Essentially you are paying for a lot of technology, good brands and high quality machines.<\/p>\n It may not seem that important when first thinking of buying a coffee machine, about the number of cups it can make. Believe me it can really make a big difference.<\/p>\n Quite a large number of these machines will only deliver one cup at a time. If you are not in a hurry, then that is probably not a big deal. If on the other hand you have a couple of people, hurrying out to work, then it gets important.<\/p>\n The better brands will allow you to do two cups at once. If that feature is important to you, then make sure you buy one that allows you to do that.<\/p>\n Most of the better brands of bean to cup machines will have this feature included. The cheaper ones do not and trust me, cleaning up without that feature is a pain in the butt.<\/p>\n If you want great tasting fresh coffee, then keeping your machine clean is an essential thing to do. Getting most of that done automatically is in my opinion, well worth paying a little extra for.<\/p>\n If you have never ground coffee beans before, then you may get an initial shock. It is quite a noisy process. If you are someone who prefers to buy pre-ground coffee, then buying one of these machines would be a waste of your money.<\/p>\n One of the key purposes of a bean to cup coffee machine, is that you buy fresh beans, grind them so as they are super fresh and then brew.<\/p>\n First thing in the morning or later in the evening when the kids are in bed, is not the best time to grind your beans. That said, if you want fresh and an amazing taste, then you will live with the noise.<\/p>\n As a general rule a bean to cup machine will be bigger than a normal coffee machine. It is certainly much bigger than any of the pod or capsule types of machine.<\/p>\n They can quite literally dominate your kitchen. The manufacturers are always working on making these more compact. That is difficult though as hopper size and brewing capacity is difficult to minimise.<\/p>\n Now to make any good coffee the most important thing is that the coffee has to be as fresh as you can get it. Pre-ground coffee is convenient, but nothing is better than buying the beans and grinding those just before use.<\/p>\n That really is what “Bean to cup” machines are all about. The alternative is to buy a\u00a0blade<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0burr grinder<\/a> and am alternative coffee machine without the built-in grinder.<\/p>\n November 5, 2022 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 0<\/span> \u00a0comments<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thanks for taking your time to read our reviews of the De\u2019longhi Specialista Prestigio …<\/a><\/p>\n Read More<\/a><\/p>\n February 15, 2021 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 0<\/span> \u00a0comments<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This particular model is one of the highest selling models or bean to cup …<\/a><\/p>\n Read More<\/a><\/p>\n February 14, 2021 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 0<\/span> \u00a0comments<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is our UK review of the popular Krups Arabica Digital bean to cup …<\/a><\/p>\n Read More<\/a><\/p>\n January 2, 2021 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 0<\/span> \u00a0comments<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thanks for taking your time to read our review of the popular Delonghi Autentica …<\/a><\/p>\n Read More<\/a><\/p>\n January 17, 2020 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 0<\/span> \u00a0comments<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thanks for taking the time to check out our UK review of the De’Longhi …<\/a><\/p>\n Read More<\/a><\/p>\n May 13, 2019 <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n 0<\/span> \u00a0comments<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is our UK review of the Krups EA8150 Bean to cup coffee machine. …<\/a><\/p>\n\n
