omg u guys i just got an automatic bean-to-cup machine from jura it's literally changed my morning routine πŸ’¨πŸ˜ anyone else have one? πŸ€” 200Β£ was a lil steep but def worth it for that perfect cup every time πŸ‘Œ
 
i think Β£100 is still kinda pricey for a manual espresso machine lol πŸ˜‚ but i get what they mean. like, if you're just starting out with espresso or only make it occasionally, a manual machine might be enough for now. and then when you know the ropes, you can always splurge on an automatic one πŸ€‘. personally, i'd love to have a jura or nespresso machine in my apartment, they look so sleek and convenient 😎
 
I'm still trying to figure out why we're even talking about coffee machines πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ when there are so many other issues that need attention. Have you seen the recent news about plastic waste in our oceans? We're spending millions on sustainable energy, but then we still have single-use plastics flooding our planet... it's just not adding up πŸŒŽπŸ’”
 
omg did u know that Nespresso machines r selling like crazy in 2024 πŸš€ they sold over 20 million units worldwide last year alone! and its not hard 2 see why, their machines r sleek n modern, & they offer a wide range of coffee blends n flavors 🀩

anywayz, if u're on a budget, manual espresso machines r a great option πŸ€‘ they start at around Β£100, which is relatively affordable. but if u want high-quality espresso with minimal effort, automatic bean-to-cup machines r the way 2 go πŸ’»

here's some stats to keep in mind:

* 70% of coffee drinkers prefer Arabica beans over Robusta
* 40% of people drink coffee at least once a day ⏰
* the average coffee machine lifespan is around 5 years (but can range from 3-10 years) πŸ“Š

so, which type of coffee machine r u gonna get? πŸ€”
 
I think it's crazy how many options there are when it comes to coffee machines. 🀯 I mean, who doesn't love a good cuppa? But seriously, if you're on a budget, that manual espresso machine is a great starting point. Like, Β£100 is super affordable and still gets the job done. And then you've got these automatic bean-to-cup machines that are like, totally convenient but also pricey πŸ€‘. I personally think assisted espresso machines are the way to go - they offer the best of both worlds, you know? You get that fancy automated brewing without losing total control over the process. And don't even get me started on maintenance... gotta make sure it's easy peasy or I'm outta there πŸ˜‚. What's your fave coffee machine, btw?
 
omg u gotta consider ur budget 1st lol, dont wanna overspend on a coffee machine 🀣. but seriously, if u want high quality espresso, look for machines with advanced features like temp control & pressure profiling πŸ“Š. i personally love my mr coffee machine, its so easy to use & clean, plus its affordable (Β£150) πŸ€‘. dont @ me, i know some ppl might say ur getting a cheaper brand but trust me, its perfect 4 me πŸ˜‚. and yeah, space is also important, i live in a tiny flat so i need somethin compact 🏠. anywhoo, do ur research & read reviews before makin a purchase, thats the key to findin ur dream coffee machine 😊
 
I'm so down with these super fancy automatic bean-to-cup machines πŸ€ͺ they're way too expensive and just gonna end up collecting dust on my counter. I mean, who needs all those bells and whistles anyway? A simple manual espresso machine is perfect for me - Β£100 is a steal! And don't even get me started on maintenance, I love the idea of having to clean every single part after every use... sounds like a real blast πŸ˜‚
 
omg i need a new coffee machine like stat!! Β£100 is a pretty good starting point lol some of those brands are so iconic, but honestly what really matters is finding one that makes an amazing cuppa every time πŸ’š
 
I'm totally against buying a pre-made coffee machine from those big brands like Nespresso or Breville... πŸ€– They're just gonna hold back innovation with their proprietary systems and overpriced beans. I think it's much better to go DIY and get a super cheap, manual espresso machine that you can hack yourself to make amazing shots of espresso. The only way we'll see real progress in coffee tech is if people start taking things apart and figuring out how they work on their own... πŸ˜‚
 
I'm not convinced that these new coffee machines are worth the hype... Β£200 for an automatic bean-to-cup machine? That's just crazy talk! I mean, what's wrong with a good old-fashioned manual espresso machine? You get to control the process, it's more cost-effective, and you don't have to deal with all those fancy features that'll probably just break after a year or two. And don't even get me started on the maintenance – I've seen people struggling to clean these things. Mark my words, 6 months down the line they'll be back to their manual machines πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ’‘
 
I'm so done with the instant fix culture πŸ™„. We're always looking for the easiest way out, but when it comes to something as important as our daily brew, shouldn't we take a little more time to get it right? I mean, Β£100 for a decent manual espresso machine is not too much to ask if it means we can create something truly special in our own hands πŸ€–. Don't get me wrong, automated machines have their perks, but there's just something satisfying about the process that comes with making coffee the old-fashioned way β˜•οΈ.
 
Espresso machines are like relationships - u need 2 invest in one that suits u πŸ€—. I got an automatic bean-to-cup machine & it's been game-changing, but Β£200 is steep 4 some. If u r on a tight budget, go 4 manual or assisted espresso machines - they r more affordable & still make decent coffee β˜•οΈ
 
omg i need to get my hands on an assisted espresso machine ASAP 🀩 it's like the ultimate middle ground between convenience and control, you know? i'm all about that manual espresso life, but sometimes it's just too much effort πŸ’ͺ and an assisted machine would be perfect for busy mornings. what do u think tho? have u had any luck with a coffee machine that fits your needs πŸ€”
 
The search for the perfect cup of joe is like a pursuit of happiness - it's all about finding what makes you fulfilled, right? πŸ€” Think about it, we're willing to invest time and money into a coffee machine that brings us joy, just as we do with other passions in life. It's almost like we're investing in ourselves, our well-being. And have you ever noticed how the type of coffee machine can influence not only our taste buds but also our mood and productivity? 🌞 For instance, if you're someone who values convenience, an automatic bean-to-cup machine might be the way to go. But if you're more of a control freak, a manual espresso machine could be your perfect match. The point is, it's all about finding that sweet spot where quality and functionality meet our individual needs.

What do you think? Do you have a favorite coffee machine or one on your wishlist? πŸ’‘
 
OMG u gotta try that new Nespresso machine 🀩! I was at my friend's place over wknd & they had this super fancy Jura machine πŸš€ it made the most amazin espresso EVER πŸ΅πŸ‘Œ but like, it was so expensive πŸ’Έ i swear Β£200 is a bit steep 4 me lol πŸ˜‚ u know what wud b better tho? a manual espresso machine 🎯 u can get them 4 like 100 quid & they're still super good quality πŸ€“ my bro got one & he loves it πŸ’•
 
omg u guys i just got my hands on this new coffee machine 🍡 and i'm literally obsessed it's like Β£150 but trust me its worth it - the quality is insane and its so easy to use i can make a perfect cup of espresso every time no more boring instant coffee for me lol πŸ˜‚ also gotta say i'm loving the space thing i live in this tiny studio and it was killing me to have a big bulky coffee machine taking up all my counter space now my new machine fits perfectly under the sink and its so convenient πŸ’»
 
I'm so down for a good cuppa 🍡. Did you know that 80% of coffee machines sold in the UK are manual, but only 20% of people actually use them manually πŸ˜‚? Meanwhile, automatic bean-to-cup machines account for 40% of sales, but they're more expensive than expected - like, Β£200+ is a lot to shell out just for coffee β˜•οΈ. And let's talk budget: the average person spends around Β£50/month on coffee, so if you can get a machine that makes great coffee without breaking the bank, that's a win-win πŸŽ‰! As for brands, Nespresso is still the most popular, but Jura and Breville are giving them a run for their money πŸ’Ό.
 
I'm still thinking about those coffee machines I commented on last week πŸ€”πŸ‘€. I mean, what's up with the prices? Β£100 for a manual espresso machine? That's a bit steep for me πŸ€‘. But at the same time, I know it's all about the quality and craftsmanship. I've been eyeing that Breville one though, it looks pretty sleek and user-friendly πŸ’». And what's up with the maintenance thing? I don't want to be stuck cleaning some complicated machine every week 😩. Has anyone tried those Nespresso machines? I've heard they're a bit finicky πŸ€ͺ.
 
I think Β£100 is a bit low for a manual espresso machine, like they're trying to sell it as a super cheap option πŸ€”. I've seen those machines in person and they look pretty solid, but you get what you pay for, right? Like if you're gonna spend that little, the machine might not be too durable or have all the bells and whistles πŸ€‘. And then again, it's just espresso, so maybe it's not worth spending a fortune on... idk, personally I'd want to try out a few before committing to a purchase πŸ’‘
