Best Value Bean to Cup Coffee Machines

This is the machine for those who desire a completely customizable, hands-free, one-press latte. Read our Beem Espresso Grind Profession review for more information.

Its swappable bean hoppers allow you to try different blends on the fly and its profiles mean you can pick up exactly where you left off. It's also cheaper than capsule machines, and makes use of real beans instead of pre-ground.

1. Smeg BCC02

The design was created by Milan-based company Deep Design, this sleek, compact and striking machine combines the distinctive retro style of the brand with modern technology. It is able to handle every step of the coffee-making process - from grinding beans and then tamping them into a puck, to texturing milk and dispensing the right amount - so you can create barista-quality hot drinks by pressing the button.

The machine also sports an elegant brushed aluminium front and comes in black, red or taupe, which means it'll easily fit into most kitchen designs. The machine does not come without flaws however. Many reviewers felt that it was expensive for a cup-to- bean maker (and does not come with the milk pitcher).

There were also plenty of glowing reviews about the quality of the coffee as well as the ease of use of this machine. The user-friendly digital display offers an easy-to-follow guideline and feedback throughout the making process, allowing you to perfect your drink every time. The machine will even tell you to alter the size of your grind if that's not what you want. It's like having a personal barista at home (minus Elon Musk's rocket building abilities and Harry Potter's invisibility cape).

If you prefer milky drinks this model comes with an adjustable steam wand up and down to accommodate all drinking vessels, but not a Viking's drinking horn. We were impressed by the speed and effectiveness of the frothing process, too. It also produces an amazing espresso with great crema and a full flavor despite its compact size.

The BCC02 is an excellent all-rounder. It's quiet and efficient, and offers great value for money at the current price of PS499. The only problem is that it does not provide the same level of customisation as other bean-to-cup machines that we have tested. It comes with a 15 bar pump instead of the usual 19 bars, which isn't as good to make high-quality espressos. Other than that it's a fantastic bean to cup filter coffee machine (click) to cup machine for those who prefer their coffee machine beans strong and dark.

2. Melitta Barista TS Smart

The Barista TS Smart has a number of features that set it apart from the rest of the competitors. The most distinctive feature could be the fact that it is able to be controlled by your smartphone with the Melitta Connect App. This lets you alter settings and even dispense various coffee recipes that are stored within the machine itself.

This makes the machine extremely flexible and adaptable to your tastes. There are a variety of options to alter the strength of your drinks, as well as different sizes of cups and whether or not to add milk. The machine is equipped with two airtight bottles of beans that are automatically selected to suit different specialities. The machine defaults to using standard espresso beans to coffee machine and cafe creme, a German variation of flat white or long black. But, you can select any beans you'd like. There's also a convenient chute for pre-ground coffee if you'd like to make your own (for example, if that pesky dinner guest brings their own).

Users have also reported being impressed by the speed of the machine. They've said that it is able to produce their drinks far quicker than other machines they have used. The machine also alerts you when one of its hoppers are almost empty. This means that you won't be able to drink your favorite drink.

The only thing that may be a negative for some people is the price. This machine is priced at PS999. It's still less expensive than comparable Jura machines that have similar features.

The Barista TS Smart is backed up by an extensive warranty that provides two years of coverage. This is a longer warranty than the typical one-year warranty. It's a mark of confidence from the manufacturer. It also includes a cleaning tablet and a descaler, making it easy to keep on top of the machine's maintenance requirements. This is a great machine for those who are looking for a top-quality and flexible bean to cup machine that is affordable.

3. Jura GIGA 6

The Giga 6 also has a great feature that lets you duplicate and personalize your favorite coffees. This is especially beneficial for those who like having the same beverage in the morning and in the evening. You can, for instance, create flat whites using regular beans, and then a duplicate with decaf. You can alter the ingredients, such as the type of milk used or the amount sugar or cocoa.

Both the Giga6 and Z10 offer a broad range of options for customization. For starters, you can choose from a variety of specialty drinks that are one-touch. You can also adjust the strength of the coffee and select from a variety of levels for milk foam.

The GIGA 6 and Z10 have a 4.3 inch full-colour touchscreen display and rotary switch that makes it easy to navigate through the many features of the machines. The GIGA 6 is able to connect to your smartphone using WiFi. This will allow you to download a number of apps to customize your favorite drinks from home.
