Jura is used here very rarely, these devices must be returned to clean the brewing unit regularly to service, the self-cleaning with tablets is not enough after a certain duration of which is annoying and expensive, also the equipment, too are not exactly cheap.
Saeco is a big name but also a brand devices with quite high repair portion.
Siemens, Krupp, AEG, Bosch ..... here I did not have time and again some detail what was important to me, but consistently good equipment.
Melitta is known to me as a very good manufacturer of commercial kitchen coffee machines with high reliability and very good service.
This did I not have to use.
This machine has a friend of mine and I can often see the quality of this machine.
But never imagined the slightly stripped down version Caffeo Bistro II bought because me the additional features of the lounge More price were not worth it.
Caffeo Lounge II:
+ Simple and easy-to-use
+ 2x 130gr. Coffee bean container and additional compartment for supply of ground coffee
so you can choose 3 coffees. I prefer coffee beans from a private roasting in Hamburg (1x vigorously; 1x special mix) and ground espresso from this roaster.
+ Milchaufschäumquirl - (Heat whorls simultaneously and with steam) extremely well and quickly without splashing
Super easy to clean + Milchaufschäumquirl, turn off and running water rinse, completed, or give in the dishwasher!
+ Heiswasserzufuhr for tea
+ Vorwärmmöglichkeit for cups
+ Sleep mode (and more important at the present time)
+ Very smooth height adjustment for coffee inflow
+ Use of up to 14cm high Latte Macchiato glasses, as well as small espresso cups
+ Lowered for Latte Macchiato glasses
+ Rinse at the switching on and off (very hygienic)
+ Easily removable and to clean the brewing unit
+ Self-explanatory icon display for all conditions
+ Elegant design, here on one can of course argue
- Quite a large device, nothing for small kitchens
- If you like a lot of presets and automatics is out of place, equipment is simple and easy to operate with no frills
These are the differences to Caffeo Bistro II:
# Retractable glasses stand by exactly 1cm over Caffeo Bistro II (14 instead of 13cm)
# Mirrored display
# Chrome Equipment details (spout)
# Latte macchiato drip tray
# Other display LED colors
# More price 200, - according to the manufacturer's instructions
Conclusion:
* This coffee machine is highly recommended for the elegant details like.
* Price - performance a bit too high for the minimal differences compared to Caffeo Bistro II.
* Coffee enjoyment at its best, taste, temperature cooking ... everything is perfect and can be individually manually on rotary control.
* The best Milchaufschäumeinrichtung market
