Single Cup Coffee Maker

A coffee pod machine makes one cup of coffee, and is a popular home appliance. Brewing coffee at home, one cup at a time, lets you have the real coffee taste without a pricey setup. Nowadays, coffee makers are priced affordably and are available in a variety of styles.

The popularity of single cup machines is also due to the fact that they are very low maintenance. These coffee machines are also very user friendly for first time users. These coffee machines are closed system machines and you can only use the coffee that is made for that particular machine. If you like the coffee available, or are not very fussy, then this will not be an issue.

Douwe Egberts and Nespresso both manufacture a popular single cup coffee maker. A Nespesso machine will require that you use Nespresso coffee in it, and the same goes for a Douwe Egberts machine.

Being so easy to use is undoubtedly the top reason for these single serve machines' popularity. Being limited to one brand of coffee doesn't bother most people.

But if you want to work around that limitation, some manufacturers have instructions you can get on making your own pods. At first this was considered to be piracy, so the industry didn't like it, but now they realize that it just increases their sales and ability to compete. Senseo are the top manufacturers for custom pods. In their brewer, you can use any kind of coffee you like, thanks to pod makers and coffee ducks.

A beginner can brew amazing coffee with a single cup coffee maker. You'll get excellent gourmet taste, no fuss, low maintenance and no mess. Above all, you'll save money in the long run by making your own coffee at home instead of paying significantly more at a coffee shop.
