Siemens EQ700 iAroma wins coffee machine test amid rising consumer costs

In a recent test of 26 coffee machines, the Siemens EQ700 iAroma emerged as the winner with a grade of 1.75. The premium device features 37 different coffee specialties and includes smart connectivity via the Home Connect app.

Regarding consumer trends in Germany, coffee consumption remains high, with individuals drinking approximately 163 liters per year. However, rising energy and transport costs have driven up coffee prices significantly.

Market analysis highlights several consumer pitfalls, particularly the high cost of coffee capsules, which can reach 92.26 euros per kilogram. Additionally, the use of capsules contributes to approximately 9,700 tons of packaging waste annually in Germany. While aluminum capsules offer high recyclability rates of 84 to 94 percent, plastic alternatives perform significantly worse.
