Single-serve coffee solutions (coffee pods and capsules) have witnessed a significant rise in sales since 2016. The market growth for fresh ground coffee pods is mainly contributed to the ease of use of these products, premium quality coffee, and the wide variety of flavours available.
The increasing popularity of the capsule coffee machine means there are many brands to choose from. Our favorite is Lavazza. This is why we dedicate our shop to selling only Lavazza. Because we think they offer the best home coffee machines. Whether you’re after the best small home coffee machines, or something durable for your office, Lavazza are your best option. They are reliable, and with 125 years of experience and heritage in coffee making, it’s a brand you can trust to provide you with the best cup of coffee.
Key Coffee Trend 2020
According to Allegra World Coffee Portal research, 2020 will continue to see the coffee industry developing toward more Premiumisation and Personalisation in terms of coffee offerings.
The old days of jarred instant coffee are long gone. More and more customers are looking for the cafe style of coffee at home.
The time for a mug of black coffee for everyone is also long gone. People want individual offerings from their home coffee machine. They like to experience different types of drinks and try out new coffees. They like discover the story behind each individual blend and want to know where they were grown and how they were roasted. People are getting used to being spoiled for choice and they like having options. They want all these options created by the best coffee machine.
Plant-based milk is also continuing its growth in Ireland. One in three of us now regularly chooses a plant-based beverage at home. This means coffee shops need to make soya, coconut, almond and oat milk options readily available to capture the plant-based opportunity and satisfy consumer demand. This trend will continue with products designed to be used at home.
In 2019, ‘busy is the new black’ which means people expect their ever-changing demands to be catered for at speed, wherever they go, throughout the day.
Why Capsule Coffee Machine?
Having the best pod coffee machines means you don’t need to mess around with buying coffee beans and grinding them. Yes, that’s questionable for some in terms of the expense and waste, but on the other hand, capsule coffee is clearly convenient and time-saving.
Each pod contains exactly one dose of coffee. There is no guesswork and zero waste. There has been some controversy around the plastic waste of capsules. Lavazza capsules are fully compostable, so people can enjoy their cup of coffee guilt free.
The best coffee machines that use pods also produce consistent results that are notoriously difficult to attain using standard espresso machines and most bean-to-cup models. With a capsule machine you simply load in the pod, hit the button, and out comes a stream of crema-topped black gold every bit as good as the last one. Everyone can be a barista.
There is a large variety of blends to choose from. The new ECO CAPS range consists of 7 blends of 100% COMPOSTABLE capsules. From popular mild and creamy DOLCE, which has been a firm favorite of many Irish Coffee Drinkers for years, to the INTENSO, a rich blend with a persistent aftertaste and spicy aromas. No matter what your preference is, you will always find the one to cater for you.
Best Coffee Machine 2020
The ONE machine to watch out for in 2020 is the Lavazza Deséa. It is a game-changing coffee capsule machine with the revolutionary “One Touch Cappuccino” technology. This allows you to make all kinds of coffee drinks at the touch of a button. Deséa won the World Design Guide award in 2019 for its outstanding exterior and functional design.
One of the stark differences the Lavazza Deséa highlights over other capsule machines is the experience, which is now fully automated. Most other capsule machines all require milk to be separately frothed and poured into the espresso. Deséa offers “One-Touch Barista” technology. Pop a coffee pod in and fill the glass mug with milk to the marked level and press a button. Hey Presto!…Your favourite drink is done.
Deséa’s touch interface arranges the selections into two groups. One for coffee and one for milk.
The Coffee selection offers 4 different sizes of drink. Espresso 30ml, Long Espresso 45ml, Long Coffee 60ml and Free Dose. The last option is the easiest to facilitate an Americano sized beverage. The milk panel offers one-touch milk-based creations and this is illustrated to mirror the milk level graphics on the glass mug: Cappuccino, Large Cappuccino, Latte and a function for exclusive milk frothing (works well with powdered hot chocolates!).
The Desea milk frothing function allows you to use any PLANT-BASED MILK as well as full-fat or low-fat dairy milk. It truly creates a range of coffee drinks you can tailor to your individual tastes.
The machine also comes with the temperature and froth boost if you prefer something even hotter or frothier.
Lavazza Deséa is a great choice for a multitude of reasons and it’s the perfect addition to any kitchen and will make a great present this Christmas.
