At the moment, we're using a Tassimo machine, but the cappucino's pretty crappy, and we'd like some freedom to choose whatever coffee beans we'd like.

On the other hand, everyone in the office will be using it, so we want something easy to use, so a full blown manual espresso machine is out of the question.

So I'm looking for a machine, you can put beans, water and milk in. Choose your coffee, press a button, and it'll make it. It would need to make black coffee, or Americanos as well as cappucinos. Ideally, without having to shift the cup around.

At the moment, I'm looking at the Gaggia cappuccino X2. http://www.amazon.co.uk/GAGGIA-XTWO-TOUCH-CAPPUCCINO-MAKER/dp/B000UJJTEE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=kitchen&qid=1210779820&sr=8-2

Which looks exactly like what I'm looking for.
Has anyone here used one of these before? Are they easy to clean? Are there any other similar machines that people have used, that would be worth checking out?
