Freestanding vs. built-in

Freestanding compared to built-in coffee machine

The key factor when deciding between a freestanding or built-in coffee machine is the space it will be placed in. Freestanding machines become a design element as much as a functional appliance. Built-in machines, meanwhile, blend into the space to create a seamless look.

Which milk system is best?

A coffee machine with a milk system expands your coffee options beyond a simple Americano. It also makes preparing café-style drinks easier. Adding milk creates a creamier texture, giving you a satisfying smoothness. Milk foam also creates a textural difference, so every sip is a great one.
