We have the Krups EA8258 now 2 weeks and had to ask about 30 cups of coffee for the first time Refill beans (250g beans - 30 cups). We are very excited about the coffee, it tastes well balanced and aromatic, like coffee must be our opinion. All parameters such as brewing temperature and degree of grinding can be adjusted, of course, where we are at the middle positions once very satisfied. The instrument declares always graphically, what to do, how to empty about the various containers. Some things she asks for even if one has it actually done) The unit heats up quickly and also supplies rapidly the desired coffee. Here, the amount in ml can be set, I have this course not measured it .... why ?! The adjusted amount is retained and is still set next time, so the cup is always the same full. The amount can change yet, so that the cup does not overflow during running of the coffee. The remaining cups up to next cleaning (350) are displayed in the menu, even when the next filter change or the next descaling is off. The filter must not be installed by the way, the machine asks the well off. It is important that the drip tray is inserted always in your device correctly. This has behind an opening where the water when cleaning the brewing unit into evaporated after coffee preparation, or else past it and runs on the device) We have had the first coffee a very nice shock :) The current model also has a twisted aluminum dot, not as the predecessor of plastic. The machine looks very valuable and fits great in our kitchen. The small size of the base area was incidentally one of the main reasons why we chose this Krups. The right decision - as we could find so far. And who wants a coffee machines without graphic display in the kitchen)
Update 06/14:
After one year, the coffee is still great as the first day. One or the other filter changes we've been through (the low-cost replacement filter 5Stk. For 25EUR) and also cleaning was there. The Tab easily into the small hole under the cover up and off you go, everything is always on display yes displayed. Every now and then it's good all with a small Aufwaschbürste (eg Ikea 99ct.) To clean so that no coffee residues remain. In our Moving Phase I even 5min-sterols cooked with the machine * *;) We would buy the device at any time again, highly recommended! The amount of coffee is true even as the first day, so also because no fatigue or "blockages".
