The Krups Sensation is a good fit if you want fresh bean coffee every morning but do not have much counter space. It is only 24 cm wide, and everything is controlled from a touch panel on the front, so there are no dials to fiddle with.

The conical metal burr grinder has five settings, and the 260 g bean container holds enough for several days of regular use in most homes. Choose from espresso, ristretto, lungo or a longer filter style coffee, and it can brew two cups at the same time. Coffee temperature can be set to one of three levels, and you can save two favourite drinks. For milk drinks there is a manual steam wand, which takes a little practice but gives you full control over the texture of your foam. The machine reminds you when it is time to clean or descale, which is helpful in areas with hard water.
