Best coffee maker

That is hardly going to be quicker than dicking about with the stove-top pot even if there is one right outside. I don't think there is a Costa or equivalent within 5 miles of me...

Yeah I prefer a proper mug though if I can make it whenever I want this might change to a cup. Will the original Nespresso not do long coffees then, I hadn't realised the Vertuo uses a different pod size. It was one I had noticed.

You can make a longer coffee with a normal Nespresso by adding hot water to make an Americano. Size wise it does ristreto, espresso and lungo.

The Vertuo does an espresso, gran lungo, full cup and alto. It used a barcode system to figure out the brewing parameters.

The alto looks ridiculous but not having to boil the kettle would be a boon. Not sure if I'm bothered by frothy milk gadgets and steamers. If it uses silly barcodes does that mean 3rd-party ones aren't around, I saw on Which they recommended some at 1/3 the price the proper ones.

No third party Vertuo pods.
