New to coffee - find me a machine!
Hi All,
I never used to be a fan of coffee, not one bit. I used to think it tasted like earth and wouldn't go near it. Caffine used to make me feel jittery and wierd so i would avoid it like the plague.
Then i started drinking mochas...
Then i started putting more coffee in them
Then i started drinking normal coffee from coffee shops
Then (at my parents) i started experimenting by blending coffee types
... so its safe to say im pretty hooked
So now i need a coffee machine of some sort for my flat, i know there is some pretty serious coffee fans here on Hexus so im hoping you can give me some solid recomendations. Unfortunately i don't have gas stoves so i cant just use a pecolator. I do quite like espresso though.
Ideally i would like a machine than can make both espresso style and filter coffee in one, although perhaps this is a bit adventurous?
Another useful feature would be to have freshly made coffee prepared for me when i get up in the morning. It doesnt have to have a massive capacity, if that makes sense, it will only ever be used to make up to say 3 cups in one go.
Budget is say £100 with wiggle room.
I have my grumpy mule coffee waiting for a machine to use it on :)
