The 3 Top Instant Coffee Machines for Your Home, kitchen or business are explained below…

Having an instant coffee machine in your kitchen, breakaway area or reception room can help increase your morale and productivity, and will also give guests and visitors the right first impression. Rather than having to wait for the kettle to boil and messing about with tea bags, coffee, sugar and milk, a coffee machine will do everything for you, saving time and minimising spills. But which would be the best instant coffee machine for your home or small businesses premises? Well, that depends on a number of factors, such as how many people work here, how wide a drinks selection you want and how much space you have in your kitchen.

Here are my three personal favourites based on a number of criteria such as quality, drinks selection, features, size and design.

Best Instant Coffee Machine for Large outputs/ Kitchens: the Vision 400

This Vision coffee machine offers a choice of up to 11 drinks, including coffee, decaf coffee, cappuccino, latte, tea, hot chocolate and even soup, so should satisfy even the pickiest of staff and visitors to your home. It has a huge capacity and a rapid dispense time, making it ideal for larger offices and as a ‘front of house’ solution for hotels, bars and restaurants. It’s extremely robust and will last for years with minimal maintenance. You can either programme it for free vend or coin operated use.

Best Instant Coffee Machine for Medium-Sized outputs/ Kitchens: the Mini Rio II

The Mini Rio II is ideal for the home or for businesses with limited space that still require a good selection of high quality drinks… It makes up to eight different drinks, including coffee, cappuccino, latte, hot chocolate and espresso, with hot water also available on tap to make cups of tea. Its compact, tabletop design means that it can be sited virtually anywhere and won’t take up too much space.

Best Instant Coffee Machine for Small outputs/ Kitchens: the Nescafe Alegria A510

The Nescafe Alegria A510 is an extremely stylish coffee machine with a compact design, making it perfect for the smaller office or reception area. Despite its modest size it can still make up to five different types of drink, including Americano, cappuccino and latte macchiato. No plumbing is required – simply remove the water tank, refill and replace before use. A video demonstration can be found here.
