The coffee is really hot after brewing and he remains a good hour.
Only then, he is getting cooler. But even after 4 hours, the coffee can still enjoy very good. For my needs, the coffee tastes good and is aromatic. But that is a matter of taste.
In the optics you can not complain really. The stainless steel elements give the Russel Hobbs a very nice and elegant touch. The plastic is dark and also a quality image.
The workmanship is impeccable. Everything moves well and smoothly. There is nothing on the machine, which gives the impression of a "do not touch me or I'll break off!". The pot is made entirely of stainless steel, because nothing can go wrong. A special plus is the handle; unlike most other providers Modelllen and it is completely closed. If the pot so times fall to the ground and come up on the handle, the handle will fail with probability bordering on certainty NOT, as happened with my old after only 2 months.
So who can not operate this coffee machine which should drinken prefer water! There are four buttons, which are self-explanatory. (Press twice) The first to start the timer (press once) or to start the engine. The second one for the hours, the minutes for the third and the fourth to set the desired start time (Timer) in communication with the second and third. Shutdown is automatic.
Cleaning is not a problem, unless you're a Reinigungsfetischist because of Brühteil can not be removed or folded up. I drove times from below with a cloth over it and then the little (!!!!) deposit was gone. If the pot does not happen again a delicious, Spühlmachinen-Tap pure, hot water on it, let stand for two hours, sometimes a little with the brush by, clean!
Clock and timer are convenient.
Macken, yes it has. That is why only 4 stars. The coffee is a small Kondeswassersuddlerin. The condensation water collects in the filter holder (s) and it is constantly on the drop and the base plate is constantly full of condensation water. In addition, coffee spout collects in the lid, which when unscrewing the lid immediately after pouring runs out again, on the hands and the table top. Not bad, but lässtig. If you know it, it's good.
The water tank has an overflow, which is designed to prevent you crowded the machine. This is just above the last mark of the scale. So you should stick to the scale and not to what fits in the pot. For that is good a cup more! If you do not stick to it, the machine gets a foot bath, which does not read otherwise as already elsewhere, is dangerous. It's just annoying, especially if you have a wooden board or bad, or damaged worktop, the swells then.
All in all, it's a great little machine and I would take it again !!!
