Coffee World Corner
A Pod of Plenty Awaits

This little beauty, I guarantee you, is a real game-changer in the world of pod coffee machines, specially that it is made in partnership with Philips.
First of all, it has a double-spouted design, which allows you to make two drinks at the same time. And if you're a fan of L’OR Barista XXL capsules, this machine accepts them. These capsules contain twice the amount of coffee as the smaller ones, so you can enjoy a stronger cup without having to use two pods.
In addition, the L’OR Barista is also compatible with L’OR espresso single-shot capsules and most Nespresso Original pods.
One downside is that it doesn't have an integrated milk frother. But there are plenty of affordable milk frothers available for purchase separately.
All in all, the LOR Barista System is a fantastic investment for any coffee lover who values customization, consistency, and ease of use.
