With a single-serve coffee machine it is possible to make a hot or cold beverage by simply flipping an button. These models, unlike drip coffee makers use bags of ground coffee that are pre-measured that are designed to serve one cup.
Many are made by Keurig and use their proprietary K-Cups. But they also offer the option to grind and make your own fresh coffee.
Nespresso Vertuo Plus
VertuoPlus coffee maker is simple to use. The lid lifts mechanically and allows you to place the pod in the middle and press a single button. The machine scans the barcode on the pod and then adjusts its brewing parameters to meet. In contrast to the traditional Nespresso models, Vertuo Plus works only with special coffee pods designed by Nespresso. This could limit your options and cause an inconvenience, particularly if you're not a fan.
The machine has a sleek, compact design that can fit on most kitchen countertops. The drip tray is slim and fits into the front of the machine and is adjusted up or down to accommodate varying cups. The spout can be adjusted to meet your preference for espresso coffee or brewed. The water tank at the back of the machine is able to pivot (though not very smoothly) to make it easier for the unit to fit on counters that are narrow.
As compared to other single-serve espresso makers In comparison to other single-serve coffee makers, the Vertuo Plus scores well in most categories, including first-cup speed and repeat performance. The time it takes to brew is consistent and produces a cup of hot coffee with a smooth cream. However, its brew temperature falls short of industry standards and isn't as warm as a drip-machine coffee maker.
One of the best features of the Vertuo Plus is its automatic capsule opening mechanism, which eliminates the need to press a button. The machine can detect the size of every capsule and then open it for extraction. The machine also uses an exclusive centrifugal force to spin the capsule at 7,000 times per minute, which helps to evenly saturate it and extract its flavor. This makes it perform better than other pod machines in its kind.
The Vertuo Plus can only brew black coffee, so if you want to enjoy milk-based drinks like lattes or cappuccinos, you should consider a different model, like the Nespresso Dolce Gusto Genio S Plus or the Nescafe Dolce Gusto Piccolo XS. The latter is more expensive, but it can be used to make a greater range of drinks and includes an inbuilt Aeroccino3 milk frother.
Keurig K-Supreme

This can help you save time and energy by avoiding having to buy your preferred K-Cups at the local supermarket or online store.
Another feature that is useful is the BrewID technology. It uses a special brewing recipe that is tailored to the roast and brand of each K-Cup pod. The company collaborated with some of the most well-known roasters to develop this system, so you can be sure of an unbeatable taste every time you make use of the machine.
Connect this brewer to the Wi-Fi network and you can manage it using the Keurig App or by speaking to it using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. This allows you to prepare a cup from any location at home, and Coffeee is particularly useful when you're away on vacation or working remotely. The brewer also works with the Keurig My K-Cup Reusable Filter, which allows you to use your own ground coffee instead of buying K-Cups.
The K Mini Plus is the most compact Keurig. It lacks these smart features and comes with smaller reservoir. The K-Supreme retails for $220 but is often sold out. If you're looking for a single serve coffee maker with a high level of customization that will last many years, it's well worth the extra cost.
