Aptliton Bean to Cup Coffee Machine - Coffee Maker with Grinder and Milk Frother, 15 Bar Italian Pump - Barista Express with 2 Capacity Options for Espresso, Cappuccino & Latte

A gem of a machine!I rarely write reviews but this machine deserves one.We were looking at so many bean to cup set ups, but realised the ones we picked were going to be way out of our budget.Then I found this one and at under £300 we thought we’d give it a go- if it was rubbish we could always return it.So glad we did! It looks great quality and everyone comments on it. It’s the perfect size as you can see from the picture.But the best and most essential thing is that it makes fantastic coffee.Read the instructions well, buy good quality beans, experiment a few times, and you’re good to go.The milk frother is perfect and it also delivers hot water (for those who can’t handle full on espresso).It’s easy to clean, easy to fill the bean and water hoppers, and easy to use in general.For the money, we don’t think you can get a better machine!

I usually dont write reviews but felt like I had to on this because previously I was buying cheap coffee machines and was very reluctant spending more than £100 and bought this because it seemed very well priced for an all in one.Best decision I made, works exactly how it should, easy set up, easy grind option, comes with all the tools you need, coffee just tastes amazing out of this thing and simple to use.

I’ve had a sage barista express for 5 years, great machine but a valve failed and despite buying 2 replacements I couldn’t fix it so looked at this as a possible interim until I got the sage fixed or maybe a replacement. Have had this 2 weeks and it’s basically at least as good as the Sage.It is a little different , the controls are more simple, the grind selection is actually better but to fill the filter you have to press down and hold unlike the set time for the Sage, personally I’m now converted to this method. The coffee seems to come out hotter and the milk frothing is push button and has a timer. I have experimented and now get frothed milk for one cup bang on the timer. One big difference is the latte or capo you get is much hotter, the same as a high street shop. Overall I think I get better coffee from this than from the big high street chains but I do use good beans.One other difference is it doesn’t have a filter but I have a filtered water tap so no big issue and of course that saves on replacement filters.As I said I loved my sage but this was £209 with coupon so a lot less. Will it last 5 years? Don’t know but as of today I give it a big thumbs up.

Does what it supposed to do , make a great coffee , for the price, the quality is good, could do with a temperature light , but I tested the brewing, and it’s hot , at over 75, degrees, in the cup ,Noise levels are average, when making a coffee, with grinding the coffee beans to making a coffee,Steaming milk , is quite straightforward, with the push button function, press once to start steaming, press again to stop, you can then concentrate on steaming the milk , and getting it perfect, ~ my grandson loves steamed hot chocolate, ~ yeah I am very pleased with this machine , hope this helps

I am very happy with this coffee maker. My previous machine was a branded make and I’d say that this makes better coffee albeit it takes a little longer but it is worth it. The temperature of the coffee is perfect with this machine whereas with my last coffee maker l often had to stick it in the microwave which l felt impaired the taste of the coffee.

Don't waste your money had coffee machine one week broken had to send back for refund

Absolutely love this machine it does everything you need for a perfect fresh coffee

We wanted a machine that is easy to use but also a gateway into the more technical side of espresso making, and this ticks all the boxes. From left to right you go through the grinding process, espresso pulling, and finally the option of milk frothing - each step is easy to use and intuitive, and the built-in pressure/temperature control takes away the more technical elements that might be a step too far for a beginner like me! Highly recommended machine.
