    God damn it! I was in the hunt for a good, cheap Coffee Machine.

    Is this any good - anybody any experience? I have Nespresso but wouldn't mind purchasing a second coffee machine?

    I really like my Tassimo but the pods aren't widely available (Tesco and Supervalu stock Costa Americano and Cappuccino @ €4.80 right now).

    BTW, Supervalu had three types of Dolce Gusto pods toady, also @ €4.80.

    They can feck off. Mine still isn't dispatched, and expected after the 19th.

    Had mine within a couple of days. Already wrapped up under the tree.

    Maybe it's because I thought I was being smart in switching to the black and white version. :D

    Instant.

    Nothing to rave about. If you're an instant coffee drinker you'll like it.

    Genuine question, if it is instant coffee - and the Nescafe name kinda gives the game away, why do you need a machine to do what a kettle and a teaspoon will do? Am I missing something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 515 ✭✭✭daithi1970


    ..to cash in on the whole nespresso thing,i suppose..OH has it at work, the cafe au lait isnt too bad, i cant vouch for any of the other flavours though..

    It's not, but it may as well be from the taste..

    Yes they are very loud. Sounds like a drill going through a wall ok .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,390 ✭✭✭✭SteelyDanJalapeno


    Yeah they're a bit loud ok?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,313 ✭✭✭Mycroft H


    Any french press will be better than this.

    Was given one of these as a gift and quite like it for what it is. I like strong black coffee, and as such the common pods are a little light for my taste, but it's very handy. Put in a pod, and in less than a minute you have a coffee ready to go, much quicker and handier than the kettle water/instant/French press etc.
    Word of warning, pods are available in the likes of Tesco but not much of a selection available, unless you go online.

    Is your very noisy? Will be returning mine as it can't be right.

    i wouldnt say mine is loud. i have a de longhi espresso machine that is like a 747 taking off. this in comparison is much quieter. the americano coffee if made to full volume is poor but shorten the length by 1 or 2 dashes and its ok. ive tasted other stronger ones and will stock up on these. lungo intenso ?
