This is the basic factor we should keep in mind and also know the difference between a manual and an automatic coffee maker. As the name itself, manual coffee maker requires more time and effort of the user.

It gives the user an option to adjust the amount of water in a coffee cup whereas an automatic coffee maker does the job in a couple of seconds. Also, an automatic coffee maker does not allow the user to adjust the water levels.

Coffee makers work thanks to an internal pressure system that is what makes the whole process possible. Hence determining the pressure at which each model works is very important.

This is a value is measured in bars: not to complicate your life too much, we would recommend a pressure value equivalent to 15 bars should be sufficient for a good coffee maker.

Capacity is the size of the coffee maker’s water tank. There are various capacities in the market ranging from 1 to 3L and you should purchase the one that suits your requirement the most and the number of users of the coffee maker

Before buying a coffee maker you should also consider the cleaning of the machine. There are many products available in the market that makes excellent coffee but their cleaning process is complicated and can cause a real headache for you.

That is why you should always opt for the machine that has dishwasher friendly parts and look if the tank can be separated or not as this can facilitate the cleaning process a lot.

If you like the taste of coffee with real coffee beans, not the pre-grinded ones then you should check if the coffee maker you are buying has a grinder or not because if it lacks a grinder then you would be forced to use pre-grinded beans only.
