The Best Capsule Coffee Machines of 2017This machine is perfect for Nespresso lovers who wish to get rid of the tiny pods. It uses larger Vertuo capsules and reads the barcode on each capsule to automatically adjust the settings to your desired drink size.

1. Nespresso Vertuo Plus
The Nespresso Vertuo Plus was one of two new machines to join the Nespresso line in the year 2017. It is narrower than the other models and can fit into smaller spaces. It's also available in a variety of colors too.
The machine utilizes the latest version of Nespresso's pod-based system. Instead of piercing the capsule in order to pump hot water through it, the Vertuo Plus uses Centrifusion to spin the capsule around at up to 7000rpm. The brew is made by mixing ground coffee with water. The capsule dribbles out of the 18 smaller holes and into the central hole which gives your drink a thicker crema. The machine can make espresso drinks and lungo-style drinks that are longer in length.
It scans a barcode at the bottom of each capsule to adjust its blending process to suit each. You can't use capsules of other brands that use Vertuo plus because only Nespresso capsules are barcode-encoded.
It's simple to operate, with only one button at the top. Just click the silver lever on the front, and it will raise to reveal a place for your preferred pod. Place the pod in place, then press the single button for the brewing.
The machine has a 40-ounce water reservoir and it automatically releases capsules used up internally. It has a heating period of about 15 seconds, and an automatic shut-off after nine minutes. This is a great, reliable and easy-to-use machine with very little maintenance. If you want to minimize the production of waste from this kind of system, be sure to set up an efficient recycling program for the pods you have used.
2. Lavazza Vertuo Pop
This compact machine from Lavazza is a striking addition to your coffee corner. Its clever Centrifusion technology scans the barcode of the capsule you choose and then dispenses exactly the right amount water to create your perfect cup. It's available in a range of colors and comes in up to five different sizes hot or iced drinks, including gran lungo and double espresso.
This machine is a little more sophisticated than Nespresso pod machines, as it also offers the possibility of heating and dispensing milk. It's still more secure than a regular espresso machine, and is a good alternative for those who aren't confident using a manual coffeemaker. The Jolie features a large chrome lever which opens and shuts the capsule slot, while a 0.9-litre water tank slots in behind it. There's a large capsule bin too, which will hold ten used capsules at one time.
Similar to the Vertuo Plus, it's easy to use and warms up in a matter of minutes. It's also quiet and consumes only a small amount of energy, which makes it an excellent choice for energy bills.
The only drawback with this model is that it can only use Lavazza's capsules, rather than the range of Nespresso pods. This may not be an issue for the majority of people however it could be a problem for those who are interested in changing brands. If you decide to purchase this machine, be sure to buy 100 reusable capsules along with your purchase. These capsules aren't expensive, but they can save you money in the long run as they are cheaper than Nespresso pods.

Unlike some pod machines, it does not have an integrated mechanism to dispose of used T discs, however it has launched a partnership with Podback to enable you to recycle them in a local scheme.
4. Jolie
