How to choose the best capsule coffee machine
Main functions and types of coffee machines
A coffee machine helps you prepare various types of coffee drink at home. Depending on the model, the coffee machine has different functions; it prepares hot drinks automatically, which is the main difference from coffee makers.
Main functions:
- grinding grains;
- determination of cup volume;
- preparing cappuccino, espresso, Americano and other types of coffee;
- automatic cleaning;
- automatic shutdown after preparing a drink.
The basic principle of operation of the machine is to pass steam or a stream of hot water through ground coffee to brew an aromatic drink.
There are several main types of coffee machines, which differ in their design and operation.
Carob
There is no coffee grinding function in the carob type. The principle of operation is to pour the finished coffee powder into a special container, through which a stream of hot water then passes.
The main disadvantage of this type is the inability to control the strength of the drink. The process of turning it on and off is carried out manually, which is not very convenient, since you can forget to turn off the device in time, and the coffee will flow by.
Capsule
For this type of coffee machine, special capsules are used in which coffee or milk powder is sealed. There are capsules for each type of drink: latte, Americano, cappuccino. This type of machine can make tea and hot chocolate, as well as iced coffee.
The principle of operation is to pierce the capsule and pass hot water through it. The inconvenience of such machines is that the amount of drink has to be adjusted manually. This machine is perfect for home use, since it can be used to prepare several different drinks, while the cost of the coffee machine is low.
pods
To prepare coffee, this type of coffee machine uses special pods that contain powder to prepare an aromatic drink. Unlike capsules, pods are covered with paper, which makes the coffee preparation process very fast. The strength of the drink is regulated by the amount of water.
Automatic
The automatic coffee machine is distinguished by its high cost and versatility. This type of device is well suited for office use. All that is required is to add water, milk and beans, the coffee machine does the rest on its own. The programs are installed automatically; the main thing is to select the drink that should be obtained as a result of preparation.
Nivona CafeRomatica 520
Easy to use coffee machine with 2.2 liter water container and touch control panel. For 30 thousand rubles you get all the same possibilities for adjusting coffee preparation as in the previous several options. Manufacturers also took care of the enhanced aroma of the finished drink and provided a manual cappuccino maker.
Advantages:
- the coffee maker is designed for two cups at a time;
- you can adjust the degree of grinding;
- Serving volume sizes are chosen independently;
- control of the strength of the coffee drink;
- self-cleaning after cooking;
- the temperature of the finished drink is adjusted;
- AROMATICA system for an even better coffee smell;
- anti-drip system;
- auto descaling;
- energy saving function;
- The water level is controlled automatically.
Flaws:
- sometimes requires more thorough manual cleaning;
- dimensions: 460x340x240.
The functionality of the model justifies its price. Drinks can be prepared from both beans and ground coffee without excessive noise from the equipment.

Nivona CafeRomatica 520 and its differences
This automatic device is in many ways similar to the previous version. Although, as far as the basic functions are concerned, all good devices have them similar. This means that it is worth looking for features that are distinctive from other coffee machines in this price category.

Melitta Caffeo Passione: model tested by Roskachestvo test
When passing the Quality Test, Melitta Caffeo Passione received good marks. The average score was 4.203 out of 5 possible. The high power consumption let us down a bit, but it can be reduced by simply turning down the brightness of the display backlight. Separately, the test drew attention to the quality of the espresso being prepared. The coffee machine completes this task in 98 seconds. Periodic cleaning of the container is natural, but the manufacturer recommends doing a complete rinse only once every 3 months.
Melitta Caffeo Passione entered the top ten according to Roskachestvo PHOTO: ram.by Bonuses include an automatic cappuccino maker that prepares coffee with very thick foam, as well as descaling, which the machine performs independently, without additional commands.

And another machine, Philips EP3519 3100 Series
Compared to previous models, the Philips EP3519 3100 Series can be called simpler. However, the main (for many) criterion for determining simplicity is an automatic cappuccino maker. But this approach to choosing a household appliance is not entirely correct. Still, cappuccino foam can be prepared manually. And what sets the Philips EP3519 3100 Series apart from the rest, besides its low cost, is the number of grinding levels. There are 5 of them here, not 3, as in most models of coffee machines. It is also possible to brew coffee in 5 different strengths.
Philips EP3519 3100 Series with five grinding modes PHOTO: mama.md
Another difference between the model is the method of heating water. Here, not the usual thermoblock is installed, but a boiler, which significantly reduces energy costs. But the lack of a timer can be considered a disadvantage, although not critical.
