An automatic frother gives you hot bubbly milk, not textured microfoam, and it is the single biggest reason people find their bean-to-cup coffee disappointing after a few months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dr Coffee H1 does the fiddly part automatically — grinds, doses, tamps, extracts and cleans itself — and then hands you a proper steam wand for the milk. You texture it yourself, in a jug, the way a café does. That combination is unusual at this money and it is why we stock this machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is built for one or two people at home, or a small office. Dr Coffee rate it at 20 cups a day, with a 200g bean hopper, a 4-inch display and a separate hot water outlet for tea and long blacks. You can save six of your own drinks with your own settings, so everyone in the house gets their coffee the way they want it with one button.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManual steam wand\u003c\/strong\u003e: A real wand, not an auto-frother.

Here is the honest version.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy the H1 if you want good coffee without a learning curve, you are making a couple of drinks a day, you want an office machine that anyone can use, or you want a second machine somewhere convenient. The manual wand means your milk will be better than almost anything else automatic at this price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy a manual machine instead if you want to chase the best possible shot. An integrated grinder and automatic brew unit cannot match a dedicated grinder feeding a 58mm group head — there is less control over dose, distribution and extraction, and that ceiling is real. Something like the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/machinesandbeans.com.au\/products\/quick-mill-rubino-blu\"\u003eQuick Mill Rubino Blu\u003c\/a\u003e will out-perform any super-automatic in the cup, but it asks more of you and it costs more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCome in and try both if you are unsure.

It has a manual steam wand rather than an auto-frother, so you texture milk in a jug and pour it yourself. Your milk will only be as good as your technique, but the ceiling is much higher than any automatic frothing system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long until it is ready to steam?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAround a minute and twenty seconds from switching on, per independent testing. Considerably faster than any E61 machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it grind the beans?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, it has a built-in adjustable grinder and grinds fresh for every cup. You can also use pre-ground coffee, which is useful for decaf without emptying the hopper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many people can it serve?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDr Coffee advise 20 cups a day, with a maximum of 50 cups an hour in short bursts. That comfortably covers a household or a small office of a few people. For a busier site, talk to us about a larger machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be plumbed into a water line?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. It runs from a removable water tank, which you fill at the sink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much cleaning does it need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLess than a manual machine. It rinses itself on start-up and shutdown, empties spent pucks into a dregs box you tip out, and has wash and descale cycles built in. The brew unit comes out for a proper clean, which we would recommend doing regularly. The steam wand needs wiping and purging after every use, same as any machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it make better coffee than my current machine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat depends what you have. It will beat a pod machine or a cheap automatic comfortably. It will not beat a good grinder feeding a proper espresso machine — an integrated grinder and automatic brew unit give you less control over the shot, and that limit is real. What it will do is make consistently decent coffee with no skill and almost no effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA note on the warranty. The H1 carries a 1 year manufacturer warranty, which is shorter than the 2 year cover on the Italian machines we sell. We would rather tell you that up front than have you find out later. Your rights under Australian Consumer Law apply in addition to the manufacturer warranty regardless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupplied as genuine Australian stock and serviced by our own Illawarra-based technicians.
