[Automatic Drip Coffee Maker]
These machines make the “standard” coffee you’d expect when you order one from a restaurant. If you often ask for refills at a diner, having a good drip coffee maker at home is definitely a good investment!

[Stovetop Coffee Maker]
Smaller in size and more inexpensive, these Italian moka pots use steam pressure to force hot water from a bottom chamber up through coffee grounds. Although the pressure isn’t high enough to achieve espresso extraction, the coffee they make is stronger and more complex than that brewed in a drip machine.

Also a drink on its own, espresso is the base of many coffees: americano, cappuccino, latte et cetera. If you like to have different kinds of coffees from time to time, having an espresso machine at home is probably the most versatile choice to satisfy your coffee cravings!

[Single Serve Pod Coffee Maker]
Although coffee pods aren’t seen as a sustainable choice, it is still the machine of many people’s choice due to its convenience — the smart design ensures the perfect water to coffee grounds ratio & temperature settings to make the process very fast and foolproof. Every cup is flavourful, aromatic and has a rich, silky crema. If you’d like to help with reducing waste, there are refillable pods available for corresponding brands, or choosing manufacturers with a recycling program (Nespresso for example) is an option too.

For coffee pros & enthusiasts, manual pour-over brewing devices can be more preferable since they let you control the water temperature and steeping time, both being deciding factors to customize your favourite cup!
