milk for various coffee based drinks such as mochas.

but these machines also have automated elements. One example is that the water container can
be connected to the boiler and the boiler can be disconnected at will.

the user must fill the boiler with water, turn on the machine and then turn off the machine when the water in the boiler is full.

it easy to pour milk into the machine. This machine also makes it easy to keep the cup of cappuccino at a constant temperature.

but in return you get convenience and ease of use. These models are not programmable so
the user must prepare the coffee beans into the machine. The user just turns on the machine when
they want to make coffee and then when the machine is turned off, the beans go with it.
The use of a stovetop machine is great for camping because they do not take up much space,
and it also saves on the effort of getting the machine wet when making cappuccos.
