The aldi coffee machine has to be the best value going. Easy to set up and the capsules at $5.99
Per Packet of 16 is value. Over 10 variety of blends + cha latte and chocolate.

So quick &easy to use

published

Good range of available coffee & hot chocolate. Love the white chocolate.
Quick to set up, easy to clean (inside & out). You can set your default cup size (water level) with standard & small cup settings.
A little noisy but doesn’t last long.
Great size, doesn’t take up a lot of room.
Would definitely recommend

excellent

published

This is a cracking little machine for the money. can't believe the quality of coffee from this cheap little machine, all my friends ask what machine it is then when we tell them its a Aldi one they cant believe it, coffee pods are so cheap too, nearly bought another brand much more expensive but didn't like the sample taste.. we actually bought this just to use while we decided to buy a more expensive brand and have never looked back.

Coffee machine ok, capsules regularly broke

published

It’s easy to use however the capsules sometimes became stuck making it difficult to get them out, I started getting trouble with some capsules leaking coffee granules into the coffee, the machine has since stopped working and based on my experience with it I wouldn’t buy it again, all those pods aren’t good for the environment either and I felt bad with all that wastage, the taste of the coffee was good though

You get what you pay for...

published

Poor to average coffee taste, see also Magazine Choice test.
Malfunctions very often, Coffee runs into "capsule bin" and you therefore waste a capsule.
We look after our machine and regularly descale, besides we are on tank water (rain water).
Now the heating element is burned out with a 2 person household and therefor limited use.
We also have a DeLunghi capsule machine that makes much better tasting coffee and is still going strong after 6 years. As it tuned out our choice to switch to a cheaper capsule did turn out to be an expensive move.

good, realible and cheap

published

My trusty Expressi Machine has been used regularly since 2016 and for the most part has been great. Can be temperamental sometimes in delivery but the coffee is fine and cheaper per pod than nescafe's pods. Overall a good investment. Maybe not for the connoisseurs as it hasn't got enough bragging value!

Perfect and works like an industrial grade machine

published

- Great price including the actual machine, the frother, and the pods
- Good selection of coffee pods
- Good customer care (exchange it if item breaks)
- Good quality coffee
The latest machine is also good looking - very sleek and looks like a designer machine.

Like it very much.

Expressi Coffee Machine

published

Coffee tastes fine there are different strengths of coffee, I like the No5 Tauro & No6 Valleta, only sold at Aldi as far as I know, there are other brand capsules that fit the Expressi machine, but not sure which ones
It is easy to use, but occasionally a capsule blows the end out & the coarse granules go into your cup, not sure why it happens as it only happens randomly lol, even when the machine has been cleaned

Great little machine

published

Great machine, a tad noisy and the water container can be a bit of a pain to clip in. But does the job, coffee tastes great and is easy to use. Never had an issue with it. Great purchase without spending hundreds of dollars on one of the expensive brand names

LOVE THIS

published

I was given my Aldi Expressi coffee machine as a gift for Christmas 2015. I don't drink a lot of coffee but it's now a ritual to have my 3 o'clock coffee each day which I really enjoy. It's so easy to use and the coffee from Aldi is really good. Along with the frother, it does make a delicious latté.

Great machine for the price

published

. Coffee tastes good some time better than what you but in a coffee shop
. Easy to clean and no mess like the sunbeam expeesso machines but then t was not a capsule machine
. Easy to use even my husband make great coffee with it
. Capsules can cost a bit 37.5 cents per capsule but then this is how they make their money back on the inexpensive machine
.Milk frothier very good also

Love the expressi machine

published

Happy with the taste of the coffee and chocolate. It's very easy to clean. We have had it for 2 years. The taste of the coffee and chocolate hot drink is so nice on a winter's day. It's easy to store in your pantry cupboard. Love the different capsules you can buy from the store.

Love it! Works with Caffitaly pods

published

Have had my Expressi for some years now and it has never let me down. Ultra reliable and have never had an issue with it. Very easy to use and clean. I have been experimenting with the Caffitaly pods from Woolworths / Coles lately and they have been working without an issue. No jamming. No leaking. Perfectly brewed coffee each time. The Gloria Jeans Special Intense Roast will give you a wonderful dark coffee with kick.

The best I have owned.

published

This coffee machine is the best I have owned, I have tried 3 different types and the Aldi machine leaves the others for dead. And I like the Aldi pod coffee the best as well. There is a good variety of pods and flavours to go with the coffee machine.

Love this.

published

Easy to use, quick and easy to clean. Over time pods can get stuck but I've used mine so much I feel like I've had good value. I like the variety of coffee and easy to get. Better than my previous machines which cost me hundreds. Would recommend and have bought another for my business.

dissapointed for the second time

published

love the coffee, that's why I have persisted, however every 3rd or 4th capsule stops extracting half way through.
we have advised Aldi online and were told we could get a refund. it's not a refund we are looking for but a machine that delivers coffee. this our 2nd Aldi machine, but now need to consider Nespresso, much to our disappointment.

My aldi coffee machine suddenly won't wrk. Button switch not coming on. Any suggestions?

If it is less than two years old it has warranty so take it back to store, if you don't have the receipt then call caffitaly .
If it's out of warranty then it's dead. Cost more to repair than new one

Expressi Machine 2015 Edition

I have an aldi expressi machine, purchased less than four months ago, the only button that works is the rinse button. I can no longer make a cup of coffee with one press of a button. I have to press the rinse button about five time to get a full cup. Anyone know a fix for this or should I just return?

The idea of these machines is for making lattes or cappuccino which is why it only dispenses a small amount of coffee, I suggest pressing the low button first, then put your pod in and press the button once again.
