Coffee machines

[Danamy]

Nespresso machines are the mutts nuts of coffee machines imho.

I certainly recommend the Purple capsules for flavour but if you want a full on hit go for the Black ones.

Those fancy one cup things are expensive and would be just an ornament in my kitchen. At least a full pot a day in our house and can add a shot of whatever flavour I want to my cup. I'll just stick to my old filter machine.

I've tried them all including a Nespresso with the built in frother etc. These days I use this

Did you have to put an extension on your house to keep it in?

I have a percolator which I would use from time to time when staying in the house (Saturday or Sunday mornings usually if I have a hangover), and a cafetiere (well 2 actually, of differing sizes) in work, but with this new machine it's very handy in the mornings not to have to spend 10 minutes just making a cuppa, if - when I find out how to get the best out of it.
I guess it will be the 2 pod option to the end of the month and then order the stronger stuff online.
Thanks all

Just go back to the 80's and drink some good old Nescafe Gold Blend. Bollocks to coffee makers and pods

I like my coffee hot! Every machine I've tried only seem to make lukewarm coffees.

Recently got a Dolce Gusto coffee machine as a present, but so far any of the flavours I have tried all seem a bit weak for my liking.
Other than doubling up the amount of pods I use (& associated cost), making do with half a mug or getting smaller cups, any ideas of how to increase the strength (or better flavours to try)

Have you not seen the Nespresso adverts with that **** George Clooney who's holding a cup about the size of a thimble?
That tells you all you need to know about the strength of coffee pods
