Should I buy a coffee machine or a moka pot?

Should I buy a coffee machine or a moka pot? Just read my article

As someone who has owned a moka pot for two years + just bought a coffee machine

I can come and analyze it for you who are confused about which one to buy.

So that you can make a better choice~

This article is suitable for people who have a low budget but love to drink coffee and are not too lazy.

(Not too lazy means you are willing to make coffee)

In terms of convenience, of course it is fully automatic or capsule

We won't discuss them today

☕️Budget issues

Moka pots are certainly cheaper

I bought the second generation Yumtu 3480 and got it complete with accessories.

The Moka pot only costs a few hundred, and the bean grinder only costs around 500.

If you like milk foam, add a milk frother

No more than 1k will be allocated

If you don’t drink coffee often

But I want to experience the fun of making coffee at home

I recommend the moka pot

☕️Convenience

Actually, I think the two are pretty much the same.

If we have to compare, the Moka pot is still more convenient.

After cooking, rinse and dry.

After all, the coffee machine has to clean the bean bin water tank regularly.

But personally I think both are fine

☕️Coffee variety preference

It’s true that if you don’t use the Moka pot properly, it’s easy to overextract it.

And the liquid extracted from the Moka pot is not Expresso.

It is a slightly waterier coffee liquid than Expresso.

So the overall taste will be a little lighter

But the coffee machine is different, it extracts Expresso

Great for making all kinds of coffee drinks~

A coffee machine is more suitable for making milk coffee

The milky coffee made with a Moka pot has a slightly bland taste.

If you like black coffee, American style or something like that

A coffee machine is not particularly necessary for you

If you want to make latte art, it is recommended to buy a coffee machine~

☕️Portability

The Moka pot has an absolute advantage in this regard haha

We often go camping with our moka pots

I once made coffee on the top of Wugong Mountain.

Just have a small stove~

You can drink coffee outdoors

.

☕️Space problem

The Moka pot can be placed anywhere and takes up little space.

The coffee machine is about the same size as an oven

There are also various accessories

I just "customized" the cabinet specifically for the coffee machine.

Only then do I dare to place an order and buy it~

The above are all the comparison questions I can think of.

If you still have any questions, you can tell me in the comments

Or if there is anything else I haven't thought of, please feel free to add it.
