The T8 Krups I know on my first cup of coffee. She was already at my parents' home and was also later with their delicious strong drink beans always another reason to look forward to the visit to the family home. Later in their own household, the model had to be there to ... well to the pressure cell then it came after decades of work in the years and the coffee was already cooled in the pot before it was all gone. Good to Pass came the free trial month of Amazon Prime: yesterday disposed of the old machine - again today delicious coffee from the new T8 / Mark2 ;-) The machine feels lighter as the old, looks delicate and makes the same (contrary to other opinions here) a significantly higher quality impression. The shutter mechanism struck by hissing leaks from time to time in the old machine, has now been improved from the ground up. The pot can be inserted in one position and the connection stays tight. I want to make friends not quite myself only with the new permanent filter. Since I am also old school and swear to the round filter of Melitta. But the coffee tastes just me and ... oh, I think I'm making a direct or jug.
