The Breville Oracle Touch strikes the perfect balance between automation and the need to know the ropes of espresso-making. It's our top pick for a machine that makes coffee.

1. Rocket Appartamento

Rocket Appartamento is a top choice for those who wish to make espresso at home, without making big sacrifices in terms of quality. This espresso machine with a small footprint was created for those who have little counter space. It combines excellent build quality and a compact footprint. It comes equipped with an 1.8-liter copper heat exchange boiler and commercial E61 group head so you can steam milk and make espresso simultaneously.

The machine looks great as well, and has a round side panel insert with engravings of steam and hot water spouts. This is a fresh update on the classic look of Rocket that is already impressive for a machine that is so small. It also includes a black boiler pressure gauge to show when the boiler is ready for use.

One disadvantage of this tiny machine is that the drip tray and the water reservoir are smaller than those of other machines. You'll need to be careful when emptying and re-filling the machine. This is especially the case in the event that you frequently use it. This is a trade-off that results in less footprint. This isn't a problem specific to this model.

This machine is capable of handling your coffee demands. We suggest investing in a quality grinder, such as the Baratza Sette Giante to increase consistency and flavor. You can also use the machine in conjunction with an Rocket Portafilter to increase tamping.

It comes with a single dial that allows you to set the number of cups. There are two options: 2-4 cups and 5-9 cups. Its brewing method is similar to pour-over, which most coffee enthusiasts believe makes the most flavorful coffee. The water is heated to the right temperature, then evenly distributed over the coffee grounds using shower heads. The coffee is stored in the double-walled thermal carafe and can be stored for up to 60 min. The pause and pour feature lets you take out the carafe while brewing to fill your individual cup.

In our tests in our tests, the OXO Brew 9 Cup produced an excellent pot of drip coffee with a carafe full in just 7 minutes and 41 seconds. This is a bit more than the time that the Bonavita Connoisseur or the Moccamaster requires, but still within the range of time that coffee experts recommend to make a good cup.

You must also grind your own beans prior to making. You can select an manual grinder or a more automated model such as the Baratza Encore. It has multiple grind settings, and it has a hopper that can be used for whole beans.
