Drip
Drip coffee( filtration) type coffee makers are the most common and budget option for home use. These devices are inexpensive, easy to use and can please you with more than one portion of an invigorating drink.
The principle of the device is as follows:
- in the mesh( filter), which is under the bulb with water, poured ground coffee;
- water is poured into the container, which heats up to 90-95 degrees;
- hot water slowly falls on the filter;
- the drink falls into the coffee pot;
- after 1-2 minutes a cup of coffee is ready.
Such an uncomplicated system will give you a good drink, but for true connoisseurs of quality espresso or cappuccino, a drip coffee maker will not work. This option we can advise non-demanding customers, for whom the choice of goods primarily depends on the price. 
If you decide to choose a good drip coffee maker in 2016, be sure to evaluate its main parameters. Pay attention to the power, the presence of protection from transfusion, the choice of the strength of the prepared beverage and the type of filtration. All these little things will help you buy the best device:
- Power. A high-capacity coffee maker will warm the water faster, but it should be noted that the slower the drink is made, the stronger it will be.
- Filter. Standard mesh can be made of paper, ordinary nylon or nylon with a deposition of titanium nitride. Paper version is suitable for use only 1 time, nylon same - up to 60-80 times.
- Choosing a Fortress. A useful feature in which you can choose how strong coffee should be.
In addition, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the best in price and quality models, choosing one of which will be the right solution:
Melitta Optima Glass Timer .This drip coffee machine has a lot of positive reviews on the Internet. At a low cost, there are all the necessary functions. It is convenient to use, compact and has a beautiful design. The volume of the bowl is 1.1 liters, which is quite enough for the preparation of 3 cups of coffee.
Maxwell MW-1650. This device does not have a display, a manometer and other useful elements, but still at a cost of 1500 rubles this is not critical. With its main function is doing well, besides it has compact dimensions, which is especially important for a small kitchen. The quality of Maxwell's products is checked by time.
Philips HD 7457 .Another inexpensive coffee maker, which we recommend to choose because of the low cost, but at the same high quality. A capacious coffee pot and the rapid preparation of a coffee drink makes it one of the best in its price segment.
Geyser
A geyser-type coffee machine or mocha also has quite attractive price and functionality. Unlike the drip version, there is no need to periodically change the filters, the device is durable and practical. In order to brew coffee in such a device, it is necessary to pour water into the upper section. When heated, it will pour upwards to the filter with coffee, then through the holes go back. Thus, there is a multiple brewing to obtain a serving of coffee. 
A great advantage when choosing this coffee machine for home is the ability to brew a variety of herbs and teas. The device is almost universal, for which he deserved numerous positive reviews on the Internet forums and in the ratings.
How to choose the right geyser coffee machine for home and what should I look for? As in the case of drip-type, there are some nuances here:
- Material. If possible, choose the electric appliance with a metal container and a glass cover. Well, if the handle is insulated.
- Volume. Manufacturers produce products for 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 18 drinks. Here we must start from the number of family members who love coffee.
- Power. The larger the volume of the coffee machine, the greater the power( 450 to 1000 W).

Capsule
One of the best in many parameters are capsule coffee makers.

This model has recently become very popular, but it also has its own characteristics. If you decide to choose this option, you will have to constantly buy special capsules that are more expensive than regular coffee.

The operating principle of the carob is as follows:

Sometimes the kit includes a cappuccino, thanks to which you can please yourself with a delicious cappuccino.
Before buying this car type electrical appliance, you need to know some of the nuances that will help you choose the right product.
- Pump or steam
In steam coffee machines, water boils and turns into steam, which does not have a good effect on the quality of the drink( real coffee is cooked at a temperature of 85-95 degrees).In pump pumps, pressure is not created by the steam, but by a pump pump, so the water heats up to 90 degrees.
- Pressure and power
One of the most important parameters of the carob type is hot steam. The more power the device has, the greater the vapor pressure. At the same time, high pressure will ensure a fast cooking time for a perfect drink. If you value your time, the ideal choice will be a coffee maker from 1,000 W with a pressure of at least 15 bar. In addition, high power and pressure are accompanied by a large bulb volume, up to 1.5 liters!

Some carob-type appliances have an excellent function for selecting the volume of portions. You can choose how many cups of a drink you want to brew, which is very convenient for a small company of "coffee makers".
