In the modern world, there are two types of such a device: a coffee machine and a coffee maker.
a) grain.
A feature of the device is a coffee grinder, which is built into it. Thanks to this, there will be a short period of time between grinding the beans and brewing, as a result of which the qualities of espresso and drinks based on it are preserved. The popularity of models is due to the fact that they have a high functionality of use.
b) capsule.
Focused on preparing coffee from a special capsule. The model becomes more popular every year.
c) carob.
It has a long horn into which coffee beans are poured; you can put pressed tablets with ground substance.
a) geyser.
The advantage of this type is the relative cheapness of the product. It consists of three sections: at the bottom - for water, in the middle - a filter, at the top - for ready-made coffee.
b) drip.
The principle of operation is the dripping of drops into the cup from the upper compartment. Despite the prevalence, experts do not recommend for use, due to the insufficient taste component.

In the office, you can choose either a small thing or a premium class, taking into account professional features, any of which will be durable and quiet in operation.
What else should you pay attention to when choosing a coffee machine? The best products are of the highest quality. Best of all, before buying, carefully read the description of the unit. This will avoid mistakes when choosing a functional product.
