Today's prices
Nespresso Vertuo Pop (cena w trakcie zbierania) is today's cheapest entry into capsules; Jura E8 Piano Black (cena w trakcie zbierania) is an automatic at the other end. delonghi-kg89 (cena w trakcie zbierania) is a grinder if you stay with a lever machine.
Totals include shipping; coffee machines often ship free above 1,000 CZK.
Cups count
A capsule costs 9 to 14 CZK; beans 2 to 4 CZK per cup. At two cups a day the gap is about 5,000 CZK a year.
A 30,000 CZK automatic therefore pays back against capsules in 5 to 6 years; a 12,000 CZK one in 2 years.
Advice
One cup a day: capsules. A family and guests: an automatic. Capsules and filters never enter the machine comparison; they are consumables in Kapsułki do kawy.
Watch the drops on coffee machines: before Christmas they fall by thousands.
