Capresso CoffeeTEC Coffee Maker with Milk Frother
|
The Capresso CoffeeTEC knows your deep, dark secret. Sure, you claim to only like it 'black, straight up, with no fancy business,' but you secretly sneak in the occasional latte or cappuccino from your local chain coffee shop all the same. Break the habit and give into your occasional creamy coffee sin with the help of this innovative little machine. Combining a high-yield drip brewer with Capresso's patented frothXpress technology means you can make that latte or hot cocoa with the same silky foam you crave from time-to-time. But don't worry, this baby is a drip brewer at heart and its programmable system is designed to churn out 10 cups of coffee in under 10 minutes - straight and black, just like you like 'em.

Pros
- Big Boy - This large capacity machine brews up to 10 cups of coffee without breaking a sweat
- Frothing at the Mouth - This is one of the very few drip brewers that includes a milk frother
- Programmable - Punch in your settings and the CoffeeTEC does the rest
|
Cons
- No Manual Froth - The built-in frothXpress is fairly basic, so you won't be getting the same type of frothing that you might expect from your coffeehouse experiences
- Heat Loss - Some have reported a loss of heat from similar stainless steel carafe units that lack a heating element
- Features vs. Cost - For the price, this unit relies an awful lot on plastic in its housing and design, and lacks a grinder found in other Capresso drip brewers
