The coffee strength can be set only on freeness and water quantity. The amount of coffee is always the same. This is a limitation with which one can live.
The grind is adjusted manually using the setting wheel. Who wants to often change the place perhaps too cumbersome.
I myself like very strong / intense coffee / espresso and always take the finest freeness.
To start a double espresso (strong coffee) by double-Tip on the wheel is quite handy; two passes last but unfortunately also correspondingly long.
The usability of the menu leaves something to be desired. Why can not I choose already heating up at what I want to have coffee afterwards?
I also wonder why it is not technically hinzubekommen that coffee before preparation know that the water is running out or a collecting tank must be emptied. The constant message in between and the unnecessary interruption of coffee preparation because something rinsed, empty or needs to be refilled nerves sometimes.
It would be nice if we could see this amount of water remaining at a glance (but container is tinted and back anyway poorly visible). The coffee cake container must often be emptied even though he is not even half full.
And even though this all sounds very critical: I do not regret the purchase. It is whining at a high level. The coffee is good and for the money you get a very solid fully automatic machines of goes on and improve safe in many little things, but basically does what he should.
