Our top 10 coffee makers and machines for a stylish caffeine hit

Ah, coffee. Bringer of energy, enthusiasm, productivity… And, yes, a shaky, tear-filled meltdown mid-afternoon if you have too much. But that’s all the more reason to make your morning cup of caffeinated nectar one to savour. With all the coffee makers and machines on offer, there’s sure to be something that fits your taste and budget. Here are some of our new favourites to encourage you to take the plunge(r). 

Hey Joe

Sometimes you need a drink on the go and don’t want to spend all your money at you-know-who-Bucks or kid yourself that a flask is actually going to keep coffee at optimal temperature for hours. The Hey Joe mug makes sure your coffee is always warm, because you can actually brew coffee inside it, wherever you are, thanks to its integrated rechargeable battery and copper coil heating plate. Unsurprisingly, it’s another Kickstarter invention, and equally unsurprisingly, it’s raised more than triple its $20,000 goal with a couple of weeks still to go.

Pledge $69 (inc postage to the UK) to get your hands on one as soon as they ship.

  • Using modern or latest coffee machine may sometimes give us headache in the operation and maintenance. Sometimes also the tastes are affected that’s why some coffee shops are using the traditional way or the old coffee machine to avoid problem in the operation and maintain customer to keep on coming back.

  • “Stylish” is just shorthand for “looks count for more than how well it works”. I’ve been able to test most of these machines over the past few years, and other than as a kitchen design centerpiece they will all end up in landfills in two years.
