The $89 Kmart coffee machine sending shoppers into a frenzy
Kmart has gone and done it again – this time with an $89 espresso coffee machine and mums around the country can’t get enough of it.
Complete with a milk frother, adjustable steam knob and the option of producing single or double shot espressos, it’s no wonder so many people on Kmart Mums Australia are going crazy for this new machine.
After one woman took to the Facebook page to share a video of the nifty machine, she received an overwhelming response from members saying they were going to order the item online.
One barista even shared her expert advice on how to get the perfect cup of coffee from the $89 machine.
“Only put the group handle into the machine RIGHT BEFORE you press the button, as leaving it in there will burn the coffee and it may taste quite bitter,” the woman stated.
She also suggested to froth the milk first, because leaving “the coffee shot sitting there too long it splits and you lose the crema.”
The woman also said that this machine would be a better option than instant coffee.
“Totally understand this isn’t a top quality machine but it looks great and you will get a good cup of coffee that’s better than instant,” she said.
But while it seems like a top deal, one woman offered some “constructive feedback” on the coffee machine.
“Set it up at home immediately and major design flaw … it doesn’t fit a coffee mug or my coffee glasses under it; even if I remove the catch/overflow tray,” she explained.
However, customers were quick to point out that the product is marked as an “espresso coffee machine.”
And for $89, it’s a pretty good deal.
