Anyone had any experience of pod coffee makers? I was thinking of buying one because they make making coffee simple, and the one I had my eye own makes lots of different drinks (various types of coffee, hot chocolate and tea), but someone on another forum said pod coffee makers are crap.

Other options that was suggested are a cafetire, or a espresso maker, but I've never used either of those.

Someone also suggested one of these

Bearing in mind I'm the only one that drinks coffee here, so it would one mug at a time.

Might be out of your price range.

I had the original "instant" style coffee systems, the Philips Senseo. It pretty much had things in mini teabags which the water went through. While they were ok, they are nothing compared to what is out now and I and everyone that comes round asks for one of my "special hot drinks" from my Tassimo. The quality and flavours are amazing and it is very hard to tell the difference between top grade traditional coffee makers.

Out of the range available, you really can't beat Tassimo!

My friend has that, and it is a good system too!

Couldn´t be more happy with it, there´s nothing better than hearing the grrrrrrrrr jzzzzzjzzzzzjzzzzz in the morning when a new cup of coffee get´s grinded and brewed

This is the one I have, but I got it at half price from Argos. At present they have deals on their Tassimo systems, and most are at half price for a heads up [yes]

I have two coffee "makers." One is an AeroPress and the other is a Bodum French Press. I use a Baratza Maestro Plus grinder.

I think it's very hard to beat an AeroPress for the price. It delivers a very smooth, strong coffee with zero acidity caused by over-extraction and very rich body comparable to a Clover machine. The paper filters are very dense and they eliminate almost all grounds in the cup so the coffee can sit for a long time without souring.

The French Press delivers an oily, rich, extremely bold cup of coffee. You have to be careful about your grind and timing or you'll either get a pot of piss or a pot of torture.

People in my office make terrible cheap coffee. Darker than sin too. They make it so dark that it smells like burnt cigarettes. One sip and you have instant painful diarrhea.

After a week of living in our restroom, I moved on to tea.

Those are pretty pricey, but I bet they make great coffee!

Actually, it was a Tassimo I had my eye on, but a different model. The model you suggested appears to be out of stock for delivery, but when I put in my postcode it says it IS available for delivery.

*cough* ground *cough*

:P

in my opinion its like a drink.... you only get what you put in. put a drop of tanqueray with lidl tonic and it isnt going to taste good but your fancy beans through a £10 tesco boil in the bag job it isnt going to work so buy yourself a decent cafetiere and be done - as long as you have the time be damned with the £400 machines!!

[jelena-nanana]

Agreed with Marilyn_Manson. Bungle do you want GOOD coffee or do you want adequate EASY coffee?

If you want easy, just get a decent instant like Dowe Egberts.
Otherwise get a cafetiere and some decent ground dark roast.

[Pataacculako]

that's a very nice unit,

out of my league tho..

Just like my Penis !!!

Meep Meep

[HaroldMY]

What about this gadget, which was also suggested on the other forum?

[constanyiskancho]

Í´d like to add a little something,

After working and owning a Cafe´ for 4 years and being an avid coffee drinker
I don´t think i´ve ever drank a better coffee than made with a simple Bodum Coffee maker

Funnily enough I was just this minute looking at one of their cafetieres on Amazon.

[HaroldMY]

The thing is though, if I bought a cafetiere I could only make bog standard coffee, but if I got the Morphy Richads thing or the Tassimo contraption I could make lattes and cappuccinos as well.

[tooratrack]

Aeropress(google it), will be my next coffee maker contraption.

[uneniaPhenits]

Philips Senseo are great and you can get all sorts of pods. Look around online and you'll get them pretty cheap as well.

If you want easy and drinkable coffee get a pod machine, if you want the best you'll need a proper espresso machine.

[MpbY5dkR]

Nespresso, because it makes the best coffee/espresso of all systems

[steansathtpos]

i agree with u.

I moved from French Presses to 2 keurig's. One at home and one in my office. the reusable filter was the selling point for me. I have a great grinder but didn't want to be limited to what k-cups were sold, I've had the same beans in my press and in the Keurig, Keurig wins hands down. To me the Tassimo is like the Apple of the coffee world, you'll take it how we want you to. The Keurig with the filter gives me way more flexibilty. Love it. Now my press is only used for tea.
