Super automatic coffee makers take care of the grinding, tamping, and brewing process for you, but they offer you a variety of features and control options to customize your coffee settings. The best super automatic coffee makers include:
1. Varied programming options
2. Intuitive controls and a display screen
4. Easy-to-clean parts and automatic cleaning cycles
5. Quick heat-up and steam
6. Relatively quiet grinding
7. One-touch controls for espressos, lattes, cappuccinos, macchiatos, etc.
Which type of machine you select depends on how much of the coffee-making process you want to be automatic and how much you want to manually control.
