Want to see five cute animals drinking coffee? Sure you do
It’s nearly Christmas, most people are sensible enough to stay away from the office and those who have to go into work are basically clock-watching 8 hours a day until they can finally go home for a few days of lie-ins and drinking before 10am. So nobody is really in the mood for any deep [...]
Siemens TE503201RW EQ5 Bean To Cup Coffee Machine review
The Siemens TE503201RW EQ5 (and inhale…) is one of Siemens’ high-end, stand-alone coffee machines and as such is only slightly different to the existing models. However, its brushed metal finish ensures an understated look (compare the Siemens TE506209RW for contrast) and it is slightly cheaper than its coffee maker companions. The Siemens TE503201RW bean-to-cup comes [...]
DeLonghi Nespresso Lattissima EN670.B espresso machine review
The DeLonghi Nespresso Lattissima EN670.B is one of DeLonghi’s numerous espresso makers using Nespresso’s coffee capsules, and it’s a very solid machine. Similarly priced coffee machines include the DeLonghi EN660 and the DeLonghi EN720.M ), but the Lattissima EN670.B is slightly slimmer than both of them and comes in a more highbrow black design. There [...]
Krups KP250940 Dolce Gusto Creativa espresso machine
The Krups KP250940 Dolce Gusto Creativa is rather a bare bones coffee machine. It is closely related to the Krups Piccolo and the Melody Dolce Gusto model. These machines might be small, but they’re very hard workers and make an exquisite coffee quickly and are moderately quiet as well. Krups KP250940 is available in titanium, [...]
Krups introduces the EA82 Full Automatic & Espresso machine to US market
The Krups EA82 was launched in the US earlier this week, and it’s fair to say that it looks like one of the snazziest machines we’ve seen for some time. The EA82 combines a bean grinder, milk frother and a hot water function into one compact household appliance to end all household appliances – at [...]
Video: Five-year old kids use espresso machine and make professional baristas look old
Using an espresso machine is, while not rocket science, no child’s play. Coffee is too damn important to do anything without paying full attention, and today’s youth isn’t famed for its attention span or ability to concentrate on a single task. But these two kids (called Ellanie and Ethan) use a high-quality coffee machine as [...]
Miele Nespresso CVA3650STCLST coffee machine review
The Miele Nespresso CVA3650STCLST is part of Miele’s kitchen range, and as such will fit best into a household that already features other Miele appliances and compartments. It needs professional installing, meaning it’s not a coffee machine that you can move around on your kitchen top or even put away when you’re not using it. [...]

Gaggia Accademia Espresso Maker RI9702/04 review
The Gaggia Accademia RI9702/04 is one of the costlier stand-alone machines available. At this price tag you could have a coffee machine built into your kitchen. Whilst the specifications lead us to believe it was a premium coffee machine, we’re unsure about this one. Test models are always shiny and new so it’s very difficult [...]
DeLonghi Espresso One Touch review
It’s a DeLonghi coffee machine. It makes espresso with one touch. The DeLonghi Espresso One Touch is priced competitively, but its design is that of a high-end automatic espresso machine. Which one is it? The shiny, stainless steel surface gives off a luxury vibe, but not so much so that it would look incongruous in [...]
