When I first moved into my flat, I didn't have a coffee machine. That meant I became quite accustomed to a cup of instant each morning (I know, I know, the former barista in me is appalled). Well, I now have four machines on my counter — all being trialed and tested — and I've really learned just how much your machine can impact the flavor, quality, and enjoyment you get from the milky morning ritual.
Well, one of those four machines is KitchenAid's Semi-Automatic Coffee Machine (currently discounted by £130 on Amazon), and it just might be one of the best espresso machines I've tested so far. What works for you all depends on what you want from your coffee. Do you value flavor freshness? The ability to steam milk? An easily customizable routine?
