Dolce Gusto Coffee Machine

[welshigirl]

Hey everybody,

I (or should I say we) are big coffee drinkers in our house and was thinking about getting a Dolce Gusto coffee machine for OH for his birthday in a couple of weeks.

Has anybody had any experience with this machine and is it worth the money or not?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I don't know anyone who has a single serve (pod) machine, but I must say the Dolce Gusto that you're thinking about getting looks very interesting.

It sounds like you're looking for a coffee maker that's easy and fun to use, and a traditional espresso machine may not be something you'd want to get right now.

I'm a firm believer in encouraging anyone who is interested in exploring the world of coffee, because the exploration may soon become a passion. Who knows, when you're tired of buying all of those handy coffee/milk pods, you may want to graduate to a more traditional type of espresso machine for your home use.

In the mean time, have you checked out the single serve coffee forum website? They review all of the newest coffee gadgets, and you may get more of an insight there.

Good luck with your purchasing decision. Let us know how the machine works out.

Hello Murtle 545,

Welcome to the Coffee Forums.

I was very impressed when I read that you are only 16 and you saved up your money to buy a Tassimo coffee maker. Most people your age have lots of other things they'd rather spend their money on. I hope you're enjoying your machine and that you are tasting a lot of interesting coffee beverages. It's so nice to see someone your age exploring the world of coffee. There is so much to learn and enjoy.

Best Wishes,

Rose
