Best coffee makers for home should be reasonably compact and easy to operate. Ideally programmable, if you have more than one cup in the morning - unless you have a plenty of time to enjoy a manual grinding & brewing process. 

"I'm a coffee addict." Is it a cool thing to say right now by any chance? I seem to encounter many people proudly say that. "I'm a blogger, mother of two toddlers, positive-thinker, I believe in reincarnation, and oh, I'm a coffee addict." Okay, do you know which ones are the best coffee makers for home? "No, I just have Starbucks's twice a day."

Nothing's wrong with that. But there are more benefits in brewing your own coffee using your own machine. You get to test a variety of coffee beans and enjoy each flavor to start with. It will be cheaper in the long run. You get to make your coffee in the way you actually want; stronger, more milk, more froth. They say a coffee temperature "should be between 155F - 175F" - but is that how you really want? You can find it out yourself!

Here is the most updated best coffee makers for home. I hope you'll find the most suitable one for you.

Espresso Machines

An espresso machine is one of my morning essentials, as I personally love a big mug of frothy latte when I wake up. Brew a coffee, then froth your milk - if it sounds like a job to do, it won't actually take more than 5 minutes in total.

Mr. Coffee's espresso/cappuccino maker is very easy to use, comes in 3 colors and is in affordable price (ranging from $169-$195, depending on the color).

The milk reservoir is removable, so leftover milk can be store in the refrigerator. So they say - although I don't personally like to reuse once-frothed, meaning already diluted by the steam, milk. That would weaken my coffee unexpectedly. 

The features including:

• Semi-automatic espresso maker, cappuccino maker, and latte maker with a touch of a button.
• 15-bar pump system, that's the standard for the best coffee makers for home.
• Automatic milk frother into cappuccino and latte selections removes the guesswork

#29 SENSEO Original XL Coffee Pod Machine

You know, we all have to do something about plastic.  Plastic was a great invention from the last 1.5 centuries, it's recyclable, but it's no longer a sustainable solution for the earth. Plastic wastes are destroying our environment. Our nature, trees, fish and animals are dying because of it.

I'm talking about the coffee pods that are made of plastic.

SENSEO Original XL Coffee pod machine takes SENSEO's own "pads" - just like teabags, so they're eco-friendly and they're cheaper.

Illy's remote-controlled coffee machine is absolutely fantastic. You can initiate brewing by using your mobile device to start with. The app enables you to schedule the time you would like your coffee to be brewed. And you'll receive a notification that your machine is ready to brew.

Also the machine can be connected to Amazon's Dash Replenishment Services (DRS), means you will receive a notification from Amazon when your coffee capsule stock is running low, and it will automatically place a reorder. Isn't that great?

It makes either a full-bodied espresso or a mug of rich, aromatic coffee.

System requirements: Android version 5.0 and higher, or IOS version 8.0 and higher. The interactivity as one of the best coffee makers for home. 

Cold Brew Coffee Makers

I prefer to have my iced coffee cold-brewed rather than pouring a hot coffee over the ice. And it makes sense because a cold brew processes produces coffee that's 67% less acidic. So not only does it taste much milder and sweeter, but it's healthier (easy on the stomach and teeth).  If you are a regular iced coffee drinker but have not owned a cold brew coffee maker, this is something you should definitely consider.

Asobu's portable cold brew coffee maker comes with a spill-proof stainless steel 18/8 mug.

Fill the fine mesh with 1.3 oz of medium course ground coffee, pour cold filtered coffee in a circular motion 3 times and leave it to steep for 12 or more hours. Once the coffee is brewed it easily gets released into the mug underneath.

The mug is insulated so you can take it anywhere with you and the iced coffee will be kept for up to 24 hours.

It comes in Black, Copper, Silver or White.

Stovetop Espresso Coffee Makers (Moka Pot)

Moka pot - stovetop espresso maker produces unexplainably rich, dense, beautifully aromatic coffee. I swear by it - as one of the best coffee makers for home. If you've never used one, just give it a try. When to use a coffee machine and when to use a moka pot...just when you feel like it! It's great as a straight espresso. It also makes a great café au lait when added to lots of hot milk in the morning. It works best with fine ground coffee. No need to tamp it.

#34 AMFOCUS Stovetop Espresso Coffee Maker

Original Moka Pots have an aluminium body with bakelite handle. But some people don't like the pots made with aluminium because they can taste it, or they don't like the tatty look.  So they go for 100% stainless steel.

But some stainless steel stovetop coffee makers have a steel handle that's not heat resistant, means you need an oven glove to lift it.

This AMFOCUS stovetop coffee maker has a food-grade stainless steel body inside and outside, with a heat-resistant handle.

French Press Coffee Maker (Cafetière)

#35 Secura Stainless Steel French Press Coffee Maker

Cafetière makes a very distinctive flavor, and many people believe it gets the best out of coffee.
