'Built-In Milk Frother' denotes whether the coffee maker has a special device for heating and frothing milk, usually by way of a hot steam pipe.

Milk foam is a key ingredient for several Italian espresso-based drinks, such as cappuccinos and macchiatos.

'Dishwasher-Proof Parts' denotes whether parts of the coffee maker are designed to be easily removed and cleaned in the dishwasher.

Dishwasher-proof parts make it far easier to clean your coffee maker and keep it in peak working order.

'Milk Tank' indicates whether the coffee maker has an attached milk tank or not.

Milk tanks are helpful for automatically heating and foaming milk to add to Italian espresso drinks such as lattes and cappuccinos. Otherwise you'll have to heat the milk and add it yourself.

'Built-In Grinder' denotes whether the coffee maker has a built in grinder to automatically grind a fresh batch of coffee grounds as needed.

Coffee is best when freshly ground, before it's had a chance to dry out and lose flavour - a built in grinder means you'll always be using the freshest grinds for your drinks.

'Water Tank Capacity' is a measurement of how much water the coffee maker can hold at once.

A bigger water capacity means that the coffee maker will need refilling less frequently.

'Adjustable Coffee Strength' indicates whether the you can modify the strength of the coffee produced by the machine, making it stronger or weaker. This is normally done by adding or subtracting 'shots' of espresso from the drink.

Adjustable strength means you can tailor the coffee to personal preferences - not everyone wants their coffee to be rocket fuel!

'Built-In Display' denotes whether the coffee maker has a screen displaying the coffee choices, current coffee brewing, any errors, etc.

A display allows you to quickly see the status of the coffee machine, choose drinks, etc.
