Answer: 10 A

Explanation: The 3a and 5 a will blow immediately which would not allow you to use the coffee machine

The 13 a is too high and might lead to damage to the coffee machine or a fire being started

10 A is perfect because its low enough that if their was a power surge it would be blown without damaging anything else and it is high enough to let the coffee machine work without any trouble
