It’s quite a staggering statistic to take in but a survey across Australia asked how many drank a cup of coffee each day. 75% of the replies said that they did. It sort of makes sense, with towns and cities having an abundance of coffee shops, all with happy and contented customers inside them.

Then there are the pop-up stands in transport hubs or at the roadside. An awful lot of coffee is being consumed. And there is good reason for that, with so many different styles and varieties to choose from to satisfy personal tastes, whether enjoyed hot or over ice. With leading brands such as DeLonghi selling espresso machines, here are some great reasons to buy one for the home.

• There is every chance that a visit to a café or coffee shop heightens the enthusiasm to have a machine like the Barista uses in the home. There are versions that can offer amazing tasting coffee in minutes without having to leave home early to head to an establishment and pay money, while waiting for a drink. Instead, an espresso machine can be fitted around the routine of getting ready to head out, while saving time and money.
• Suddenly trips to the supermarket become more fun doing the weekly shop, checking out the many different blends of coffee available, or maybe also popping into a specialist shop or taking the convenient option of buying online. Tastes can be engineered to suit with experimentation so that the perfect coffee can be enjoyed each morning. Having friends around becomes far more enjoyable when showing off the new appliance, while coffee mornings suddenly take on a whole new concept.
• Making coffee in an espresso machine is likely to awaken unknown thirst, pardon the pun, to learn all about it and expand a knowledge base. It can even be turned into fun and be educational for kids in the house as they learn about the origins of the coffee and the country from where it is sourced. There are clubs that can be joined to add to the enjoyment and will give tips about different roasters to try.
• There are some wonderful bargains to be had too, making coffee far more affordable than paying the prices in a café. And there is the advantage of choosing which environment to enjoy it in, be it outdoors while reading a book, or around a table with friends. Making the coffee can turn into a highlight of the day, creating quality time and the opportunity to unwind.
• As well as taking control of the flavours and which coffee is available, an espresso machine also makes the experience sustainable as no plastic cups will be used to serve the coffee and then thrown away like those that are obtained on the go, meaning a home appliance helps the environment.

Buying an espresso machine for the home manufactured by a leading brand ensures coffee of the highest quality can be enjoyed conveniently while saving time and money.
