If you like the Elektra Belle Epoque[^] in the post below don't fret, there are cheaper[^] ones around.
But if you don't like the Belle Epoque you can always have a look at Alessi Aerodinamica[^] if Art Deco is your cup of tea coffee.
There is also help to get for the technology[^] freak. (actually not, but it looks like it)
Enough with this automized stuff, if you find the Japanese to be a bit sloppy in their ceremonies you should take a look at Tom Metcalfe[^]. (Sorry about the quality of the video, I couldn't find the link I was looking for)
Personally I prefer this[^], as it's a good compromise between easy to use and good coffee.

I have caved and bought this[^] for the office.
I think it says a great deal about the state of coffee over here that these are the depths to which I plunge.

What a sh*t selection for the coffee. It only goes up to 11, I get the 12 over here for mine.

Please don't rub it in.
Just made the first cuppa and it's...OK. My Uncle in Melbourne has one (I know - why on Earth would you have a coffee machine in Melbourne unless there was a zombie plague and you were unable to leave the house to travel the 5m to the nearest cafe) and the coffee is actually pretty good.
I think we get "American Style" coffee over here.

C'mon, it only number ten on the list[^].
But if I sell the cars I could get an Elektra Belle Epoque.

Awesome.

Their other machines[^] are just as awesome.
It's not just Italians that make outstanding design. (save some of their cars)
Whenever I've paid off my house and bought my '59 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz[^] cabriolet, one of those machines are next on my list.

But where's the bin? Where's the fruggin' bin?
I swear, an espresso machine that doesn't come with a matching, integrated, clean & tidy bin for banging the used grounds into ain't worth even looking at.

My dear chap!
Coffee grounds go in the "food waste" bin for recycling into fertilizer.
Or don't you separate your rubbish for recycling in the Netherlands?
Bin for kitchen[^]
The council also provide free Biodegradable liner / bags which when full go in the Bin for outside[^] so the kitchen bin remains clean.

Nuh-uh.
If I did that, the missus would be more than a little upset -- she uses it for her own compost.
A comparatively minor second point would be that I don't want a food-waste bin sitting next to to coffee machine.

“By farting louder the man is using passive aggressive violence to position himself as dominant, this intimidates the woman to subconsciously not release as much flatulence and thus the woman fearing for her safety doesn’t fart as loud as a sign of submissiveness, this in turn contributes to ... women being oppressed.” - Ashleigh Ingle (University of Toronto)

Preferably, take it to the Soapbox of a totally different website...

Why? Is it because you don't want to think about how every fart fits into the grand scheme of things?

I believe to have heard that cats usually don't fart, and that it's not a good sign if they do repeatedly.

When he was a kitten, he did. Often. Pervasively. And usually just as you'd settled down in bed...
The size of the smell outdid the size of the cat by several orders of magnitude!

Eat meat exclusively for a few days and then let a jury vote on the quality of the smells you produce.
