Sage SDC450BSS the Precision Brewer Coffee Maker, 1.8L

Product Information

The extra element means it was the biggest of the machines we tested, and not the sleekest, but is still a fairly attractive kitchen gadget. So it also serves as a useful guide, if it’s trimming loads off, you probably need to reduce the grind amount and if the razor doesn’t touch the coffee, you’ll need to dispense more. But, personally, we found the fine mesh of the filter provided was perfect for filtering our grinds. That means you won't be limited by the two buttons on top of the coffee machine, and if you don't drink much espresso, you can change the preset for both buttons to something more your liking. Be prepared to put in some time to get the settings right, but once you’ve nailed it, you’ll be impressing your friends with perfect barista coffee every time.

this isn't a coffee machine in most budgets, but it might be one to daydream about or save towards if not - thanks to just how incredibly good it is at making coffee. You’re aiming to sit the tip of the steam wand just below the surface of the revolving milk, it should make a ripping sound. A switch on the side allows you to dispense hot water for tea or steam to heat up milk in the supplied jug. They’re not small bits of kit, but are well designed, making good-looking bits of kitchen gadgetry, with all the accessories you need to get your coffee on the go. The best filter coffee machines are suitable for anyone, whether you decide you want a coffee on the spot, or like to prepare the night before so you can wake up to a cup first thing.Having Product Care ™ with your purchase means you can enjoy a range of special benefits that are exclusive to you and will help you enjoy the experience of your new product even more. Grinding beans, tamping the coffee using just the right pressure and pouring the perfect volume of espresso before manually steaming milk to create a silky microfoam is a ritual that takes time and shouldn’t be rushed, and for coffee aficionados the process is often as enjoyable as the drink itself.

Nespresso machines shouldn’t need any introduction after they rose to popularity via a few successful commercials by a certain silver haired Hollywood star as well as their ease and convenience.

Capable of making up to ten cups of coffee at one time, it can also keep your brew warm on a hot plate for when you finish the first mug off. Set up is fiddly, but only takes around 25 minutes all in, then you can get started with your brewing experimentations.
