The Best Pod Coffee Machines

Some pod coffee makers have different sizes of cups and a built-in filter and milk that froths. The best pod coffee maker for you is dependent on your individual preferences and your lifestyle.

We discovered the coffee it produced to be of a high quality, albeit slightly less than the other pod machines in this round-up. It also gave a smooth mouthfeel and steamed milk to make caffe lattes in a short time. However, it should be taken into consideration that the milk with a frothy texture made from T Discs has sugar, which is, although not a major issue in itself but isn't for everyone's taste.

The machine isn't the fastest way to make espresso, it takes 30 seconds for one shot and 90 seconds for the lungo. But the results are always amazing with a rich, smooth flavor and a great crema. The machine will also inform you when it is time to refill the water tank or pod bin.
