'Makes using fresh coffee beans as simple as pods' — the 3 best coffee makers with grinders, recommended by a barista

Split image of two coffee maker bean hoppers, and a latte made using a home espresso machine.

Making coffee at home from scratch doesn't have to be difficult, or involve a lot of equipment. An espresso machine with a built-in grinder (also known as a "bean-to-cup" machines) makes using fresh coffee beans as simple as pods, with no mess or hassle.

I've tested over a dozen coffee makers in the past year here at TechRadar, including stacks of bean-to-cup machines, and here I've picked out my top three recommendations for quick and convenient home-brewing from scratch. There's an option for every price bracket — from the Philips Baristina, which is perfect if you're switching from a Nespresso machine, to the premium Siemens EQ900 Plus, which is the closest you can get to your own personal barista.
