This is the Xiaomi Mijia Capsule Coffee Machine
Xiaomi is one of those brands that any gadget lover loves. Their product catalog is very extensive, so much so that even if you are used to seeing manufacturers with hundreds of different proposals, they end up surprising you. Because the Chinese giant not only has mobiles, but also external batteries, headphones, activity bracelets, smart watches, computers, monitors and many other more products than you would even imagine. For example, you can find Xiaomi pens, also screwdrivers, umbrellas and even a sofa or sneakers.
They have practically everything and lately they are betting a lot on products designed for the connected home. Hence its most recent inclusion: the Xiaomi Mijia Capsule Coffee Machine . Exactly, a capsule coffee machine that you will like for its attractive and minimalist design, its connectivity and logically also the price. It is not the first for Xiaomi, they already had some models under the Scishare brand, but it was the first for Xiaomi Mijia.
As you can see in the images, this connected coffee maker offers that striking aesthetic that the brand has accustomed us to. With a width of just eight and a half centimeters , the white plastic finish makes it attractive and perfect for virtually any type of environment. If you want to have it in the kitchen or in your office or work area, you can, because it surely will not clash.
On an aesthetic level, the tank at the back stands out, offering a plastic finish that is not transparent, allowing you to know at any time how much water is still left. An amount that reaches 600 ml maximum and that depending on the selected coffee size will allow up to 15 cups of 40 ml (small cup) to almost 6 cups of 110 ml (large cup).

You could also leave everything ready to use the various voice assistants to ask them to make you a coffee whenever you want. Although for this, according to the wizard, you will have to resort to solutions such as IFTTT or not.
Xiaomi capsule coffee maker: price and availability

Regarding the price, here it maintains that attractiveness of other proposals and the Xiaomi Mijia Capsule Coffee Machine would have an exchange price of about 45 or 50 euros . A cost similar to what other capsule proposals currently offer, but without that extra that the connectivity of the Xiaomi model provides.
