black, slim, fast: Saeco HD8768 / 21 Moltio Kaffeevollautomat

First of all, the coffee machine is just over 9 kg One heavy equipment, which also claimed its place in the kitchen. Near hot appliances (stoves, heaters, etc.) should not be placed there. Also you have to set it up so that the on / off switch on the back can still be operated if one (for power saving reasons but recommended) after every use would remove the power plug does not.

If the coffee machine is, but once set up, then you can admire next be very attractive design and feel like an Italian expresso expert immediately. The first start-up is quite simple and is shown in word and image in Quick operating instructions.

The high quality of the device is already in the test phase, if you familiarize yourself with the various parts of the machine. The removal of the water tank works well, it is filled, but then spills also the safety equipment before water through.

I drink Arabica and each variety can be adjusted via the menu, where Arabica is already set by default and you the grinding / brewing so may restart without going into the menu. The grinding and brewing the coffee mill is quick and works quietly.

After coffee brewing, the machine is flushed automatically when you press the standby button, so it is always advisable to provide here a cup under the coffee spout.

My overall verdict is very good: The well-made machine operates cleanly and quietly, has an attractive and functional design and even ground Arabica tastes terrific.

Very positive of course is also the possibility to by the removable coffee bean container simply change the type of coffee, so that in the morning, for example. The full roar and evenings can prepare the decaffeinated coffee.

As all automatic coffee machines also has this Saeco Moltio a care / cleaning claim, which is significantly higher than in a normal coffee. This is a necessary evil and already demands the coffee from some friend of patience, and affinity for technology. It will be rewarded with a cup of coffee, which belongs to the best. My tip: BellaCrema Speciale, strength 2, Melitta.
