The Zodiacs Of Coffee Machines

We all have a type. Sure? Yes… we have a type for everything you can think of. From clothes brands, to spouses, shoes, and food. Coffee is no different. It shouldn’t be. Coffee aficionados will testify gladly. Freedom of choice is such a nice thing for our livelihood. Around the globe coffee has been so popular. A inspiring and tasteful adventure in our daily lives. Nonetheless we get so many different kinds. From the normal scoop from the can and boil kettle regime to much more advanced machines to simplify our pour of joy. Some discussions suggest that the coffee industry has grown to a multi- million empire and it get better and better, simply due to the growth of variety. I’m sure the coffee shop on the corner was never a bad business decision. Let us see where our coffee machines would be if they were zodiacs…

Office coffee machines- The sweety pie

Smart, small, and versatile; yet so very different. Let us think small, not small like insignificant. Oh no, small for the purpose of effectiveness. Compact would be the synonym. Office coffee machines start from there; small to very large, but all unique. Unique in purpose as well as in style. I mean, look at Christmas trees. Small to large, green to white, yet needed in each unique way as the client’s needs. Coffee contributes to the Grinch’s evening just as much. Now passing the topic of Christmas, the office coffee machine has many faces.

Let’s dive into it! The single cup office coffee machine uses pods or packs and I would see it as the Pisces. Sweet and readily available. Having chicory at your disposal like a soft hearted Pisces knows nothing else. Choose your flavour, Thai on a Monday cold morning to spice it up or your French vanilla on a bitter Thursday. The single cup Pisces has got you covered. Made for individual cups, with different flavours for each, nice for smaller offices. These sweet things attract new talents; inspire productivity because they are so darn sweet!

The dripper of joy

The airpot Aries. Yes, definitely an Aries. These coffee machines make larger amounts of coffee. They serve one type of coffee for over eight cups and then you make a new one. You can pour as much or as little as you want, like an Aries. Take as much or as little as you want from then. They are the experts of handling it. A little more maintenance acquired, obviously.

The dedicated

The larger thermal airpot, Mixed with a grinder. This one is the more optional Virgo. These deliver larger amounts of coffee in shorter time, more work and faster. Virgo’s are hardworking and perfection deliverers. No drama and results. Compiled with a grinder they give more variety of roasts and aroma. Nice one!

The go to Taurus

The other other airpot… a thermal brewer with passion. This combination of single cup and grinder will mix it up. Like the unique Taurus, they deliver more than one product. You will be left in aw wondering what creation you are looking at. Just like meeting a Taurus. Highly artistic and dimensional. For larger offices, with more walk through traffic it’s ideal to never disappoint. Make sure it has a permanent water connection, as no Taurus will pour from an empty cup!

From Aqua to bean

Mm… the bean to cup is what you see is what you get. Aquarius. This grinder dripper combination delivers a gourmet coffee machine experience. Giving large amounts, but not effective in mixing up different sorts of beans. One gourmet at a time please! As Aquarians will note, yes very hard working but don’t overstep here. If you are looking for a fuzzy hot chocolate, sure, just wait your turn. Makes a lot of sense.

The advanced king of the jungle

Our beloved grinder dripper commercial coffee machine, with advanced touch screen. You dear, are a Leo. Giving what everybody else can with a spurt of extra. This one will shock you, it gives a French press and an espresso option on a nice digital screen. Press and drink. The comfort is yours…

A chilling revelation

The same grinder dripper, equally as cool. The difference is, this next dude is the Libra. This coffee machine can give you the same good experience, however it’s for the cold brewers. It is similar to iced coffee, but normal bean coffee brewed over a few hours, with a cool smooth taste. All is good with the world, except it is for the cold coffee lovers. Just like Libra, you expect a perfectly good quality coffee and get a total different thing.

The match maker

This is a more commercial espresso machine. A step up from smaller to bigger. This commercial espresso machine will have coffee on time every time. Coffee in perfect temperature, with a huge variety of brewery in store. Here, we introduce the Cancer and Sagittarius. Calm, reaching to high expectations with great results.

High maintenance levels though. If you don’t take care of it won’t take care of you. Not as large in servings like with professional espresso machines, but tough and durable in the correct environment. Gourmet coffee is yours to take pride in, if you maintain it correctly. This type Commercial espresso machine works magic in medium businesses or offices. These types are manufactured with matching correct measuring cups and products to be quite the pair. It’s a match!

Double delish

Wait… have you heard? The one cup and grinder two in one? This is the ever special Gemini. Do you feel you had too many espressos yesterday, that your liver is asleep? Grab a cappuccino today, no mess no fuss. No getting the Pisces… That’s the two faces of our Gemini. Both faces are equally as appealing, no Jekyll and Hide here. Best of both, it all depends on you.

The running pride

This professional espresso machine will give you the smoothest, variety of espresso and Americano. Servings of 150 cups per day is the least to say. The Capricorn, the ever popular straight talker. This is a larger more industrial coffee maker. A larger option for large workplaces with catering for clients. Straight forward, great product to have. Need a different flavour today, with Capricorn you are in the right place. Capricorn likes to give as much as they can. But high maintenance. It needs to be cleaned and specially installed. Just like these professional espresso machines you don’t get a Capricorn on every hook and corner. Special items, in high demand. How lovely!

The professional

This is exactly what it says. The largest most durable professional espresso machine. Worth the small fortune you will spend on getting it. It lasts and lasts with coffee close to a barista. Yes, Scorpio this one is you. The Rolls Royce of professional espresso machines. The everything you want. One of those where you ponder… can this machine give me Thai? Yes it can give you every type you desire.



The problem is the maintenance is top of range. Scorpios give what they get, and expect you to commit 110%. Take care of this baby and you’ll build an empire solid as a rock.
