Capresso 455 Best Price Coffee Maker

Hi and welcome this review of the Capresso 455 coffee maker. What I want to achieve with this review is the informing of the reader as to all the key features and issues with this machine and hopefully allow the reader to reach the point where they can confidently decide if this is the machine for them or not.
The grinder on this machine is truly fantastic, and goes a long way to simplifying the coffee brewing process. While there have been plenty of coffee makers with grinders in the past, there have not been any that also have the thermal carafe.
I’d like to get into a few of the issues with the grinder first. The grinder has one issue that really does let the machine down a little bit, and that’s the fact that when you use dark roasted oily coffee beans you will occasionally see the machine be unable to automatically push the beans from the bean chamber into the grinder. This can only be overcome by either using light roasted or medium roasted beans. You will have to place dark roasted beans directly into the grinder yourself.
That said however this coffee maker really does produce some of the finest coffee that you will have ever tasted. This is very important to bear in mind when we look at the price, (that of course and the grinder + thermal carafe) this machine is definitely on the upper end of the price scale and that could well put off first time buyers, not to mention second, third and fourth time buyers as well. The taste of the coffee is equivalent to what you might find in the coffee shop and so we are seeing a saving of anywhere from 3 dollars for every cup of coffee that we drink. If you drink just 3 cups of coffee a day you will make back the cost of the machine and more in less than 2 months of usage.
