Who Brews the Best? Miele vs. Bosch

Mmmmm…nothing like a fresh cup of coffee to get your day going. I’m sure you’d have an even better day if it were a fancy cappuccino or latte, but sometimes you just don’t have the time to wait in an overpriced coffee shop line. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to not have to step out of your house for a cup of coffee? With a built-in coffee machine, you CAN have a gourmet brew within minutes in the comfort of your own home!

Before we start, let’s get one question out of the way.
You may be thinking, “I have my pod coffee machine that makes a perfectly fine cup of coffee, why do I need this?”
Pod systems are great, but you can totally customize your cup with your own preferred freshly ground coffee with a Miele and Bosch coffee system.
Today, we’ll explore & compare both the Bosch and Miele built-in coffee machines, and let you decide which you’d prefer in your home!

Bosch vs. Miele Coffee Systems

Bosch BCM8450UC

Bosch-Coffee-System-BCM8450UC-1

Beverages – Café Latte, Cappuccino, Coffee, Espresso, Espresso Macchiato, Latte Macchiato, Ristretto, Hot Water, and Warm Milk

Home Connect App – allows you to prepare coffee from anywhere in the home

My Favorites – Stores up to 8 of Your Favorite Coffee Preferences

Brews – One or two cups at a time

Reservoir – Stores water in refillable tank

We love the choices of coffee offered by Bosch, as well as the Home Connect feature. Automation and voice control is being incorporated into almost everything electronic nowadays, so it’s great that Bosch is staying ahead of the pack by giving you the ability to connect the coffee system to your Wi-Fi. 

Home Connect enables you to remotely control the machine and load your favorite recipes. It’s even compatible with Amazon’s “Alexa!” So easy, you don’t even have to press a button.

Miele 6805

Miele-Coffee-Maker-6805

Beverages – Espresso, Coffee, Long Coffee, Cappuccino, Caffe Latte, Latte Macchiato, Hot Water, Hot Milk & Milk Froth

Cup Sensor – Recognizes the height of the cup being used and automatically adjusts the spout

Up to 10 user profiles – tailored coffee menu to each user in the housing hood
Nothing like not having to fight over what type of beverage you want.

Brews – 1 or two cups at a time.

Coffee pot option – Produces 8 cups

Plumbed – Direct water connection. A reservoir model is also available.

The best feature of the Miele? Having the ability to a run a direct water line to the unit. Being plumbed means there is no need to refill the reservoir or worry about how long the water has been sitting in it. This ensures new water is being used every time for the perfect cup!

Their milk containment system on the Miele is a lot easier to use as well. Just take the pre-filled bottle from the fridge and click into the machine when you’re ready to use it. Bosch, on the other hand, has a straw type system requiring set up.

In reality, the only comparison is the Wi-Fi voice-driven ability of Bosch versus the straightforward simplicity of the Miele.

 

Long story short, it’s always up to you and your preference! Both are amazing products, but there’s a right one for you! Head over to our showroom, where you can actually try out the Miele built-in right in our fully functioning Miele kitchen display.
