Last year, I decided to really get to know my coffee, and in the process, I sure learned a thing or two. Out of all the ways I tried to make my coffee, one that stuck with me and became a morning ritual was the use of my coffee machine every morning. There are quite a few factors you should look for; grind size, water capacity, size and other features. To make your life simpler and put all of my research to use, here's a list of the best coffee machines for your home that you can buy online!

The Nespresso Mini is a good coffee machine for your home if you're looking for a coffee machine sans the hassle of grounding, filling, and tamping your coffee in the portafilter. All you have to do is insert a prefilled pod (comes in a variety of flavours) and press one of the two buttons on the top of the machine. The first button is for an espresso shot (40ml), and the second is for a lungo (110ml). To maintain, all you have to do is descale the machine every 300 pods or so, and clear the used capsule container every week (it can hold up to 6 used pods). It's a simple machine that's compact yet effective, and in all honestly looks quite nice as well.
