SUGGESTIONS FOR A CAPPUCCINO MACHINE...

[ Edited ]

I'm looking for a cappuccino machine, preferably on the small side.  Hubby loves it so a one or 2 cup size would be fine...thanks for any suggestions.   I really don't want the ones with pods...I prefer to use my own espresso ground coffee.

Re: SUGGESTIONS FOR A CAPPUCCINO MACHINE...

If you buy a cappucciano machine from Amazon, my suggestion is to buy the 3 year extended coverage. I had purchased a machine for $199 and it broke w/in one year. It made great cappuccinos. sigh. But I got a full refund w/ not much of a hassle. I also recommend buying the metal tamper and a stainless steamer pitcher. Lastly, if you are going to grind your own beans and can buy a grinder that has numbers/designations for how fine you grind, play around a but to get the grind where it produces the best shot, then mark the grind designation that works for you. 

 

For my current machine, I spent a bit more and purchased at COSTCO as their return policy is awesome. It's an awesome machine and my goodness, do I look forward to the first cup each morning.

 

Good luck w/ your new machine. Once you get your system down, you will be so spoiled for your own cup, you won't like anyone elses. Smiley Happy
