Sleek Espresso

This built in espresso maker looks very nice. I wonder how well it makes espresso and froths milk, though…

Zanussi’s built-in coffee maker

Kitchens were once such simple places; a cooker, a sink and a fridge. What else did you need? Well, following on from the flip down TV, you can now fit an integrated coffee maker into your ever-shrinking space. Zanussi’s ZCOF636 certainly looks the part with its modern brushed steel finish, it has a hot water dispenser for long coffee drinks or tea making and steam spout for frothy milk drinks, a built-in bean grinder and an accessory drawer for your cups and supplies underneath. And unusually for these machines, it can make two cups at a time. So no-one has to have the cold one. If you desire an endless supply of espresso or cappuccino, it might appeal. But before you dash down to the kitchen showroom, ask yourself when was the last time you used your existing coffee machine? Exactly.
