I have had a Nespresso machine with milk frothier virtually since they came out. Touch wood it has never broke down and even if it did I have had 15+ years out of it !
These do make a nice coffee and cheap and cheerful. Our main coffee machine is an Italian Bezzera ( cost a shocking amount of £££ though) and you still need a seperate grinder
I had a cup when at a mates and was impressed. You can make it a little strong or week so takes a little to get just right for you but does a great job and for the money I can't go wrong.
Update DeLonghi arrived, cheap as chips, brews coffee fine, thats all I need £1200 pile of s*ite on way to dump later today.....my advice to all never buy a Jura
Relatively cheap. Flavoursome. Available from the Sainsbury's a few hundred metres away from my house http://www.coffeejudge.co.uk/sainsburys-taste-difference-colombian-coffee-beans
I always grind my beans fresh anyway. These are some of the best beans I have tasted, and I've tried most, even that stuff pooed out by the little cat like creatures http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rave-Coffee-Signature-Winning-Roasted/dp/B005G3T33Q
Costas' OK if you like coffee by the bucket full. We're fortunate locally to have some excellent independent coffee shops. Coopers not only have a couple of outlets they have a retail shop where you can get a coffee made from your choice of bean made by trained baristas not kids on minimum wage.
It's in our nature to obsess about everything in search of quality. Have you SEEN how many, "Which trackday / fast road tyres", threads there are on here?
