I Don't Want to Buy Coffee Out Anymore and the Machine Responsible Is on Sale Now

I would consider myself quite the coffee savant. One doesn't simply drink four to five cups a day and have a Lorelai Gilmore-esque need for coffee without becoming a savant. When I was an undergraduate student, I bought coffee at the on-campus cafe literally daily. And whenever I travel, discovering the best coffee house around is top of my to-do list. Needless to say, I've had my fair share of coffee shop experiences - and yet, I now prefer to drink coffee at home.

The main reason for this change in behavior is all thanks to the L'OR BARISTA Coffee and Espresso System , which is currently $50 off and includes a free tasting box of capsules.

Every morning, I wake up giddy to make my morning coffee. This time of year, I've been enjoying the Pumpkin Spice coffee capsules, but the Onyx Espresso capsules are my consistent go-to. I use these to make my favorite salted maple hot lattes, which are perfect for the crisp autumn mornings. Since I've perfected my morning caffeine routine with the L'OR BARISTA, I no longer feel any need to buy coffee out. In fact, I prefer making my coffee and espresso drinks at home since I can use my machine to tailor them to my mood that given morning.

I also love how quickly the machine heats up - a flat 25 seconds to be exact. Nothing feels worse than waiting and waiting for a coffee machine to turn on, heat up and brew up a batch of java. Mere minutes can feel like an eternity when I'm exhausted and desperate for the energy that first cup of caffeine brings me.

What comes with the system?

The L'OR BARISTA is a single-serve machine that uses high-pressure brewing to make both coffee and espresso beverages at home. The system can brew six different sizes of hot or iced coffee, as well as espresso.

In addition to the sleek machine that's compact enough to fit on my small apartment kitchen counter, you can receive a free Capsule Assortment, giving you a taste of a variety of capsule flavors. I've tried the Caramel , Hazelnut and Le Tigre coffee capsules and numerous espresso options - and it's genuinely hard to pick a favorite.

At its $139 price tag, the L'OR BARISTA would also be a fitting gift for any coffee connoisseur in your life. In fact, my mom is already asking for her own machine since she's tried mine, and this sale has provided the perfect opportunity to get some key holiday shopping done (wink, wink).

Basically, this system comes with everything you need for a complete at-home barista experience, while taking any hassle out of that process.
