I can not quite share the joy of the machine with my Vorrezessenten, two small weaknesses bother me that later. I have a Tassimo T65 Compared yet.
First the positive: yes, it is very compact and fits the size in each kitchenette and looks very chic. The tank capacity of 1 liter is sufficient, depending on the drink several cups can be produced. The tank has to be removed easily and also to put back on it.
A nice plus (for people comfortable :)) is the tendency of the cleaning effort to zero, it must be removed or cleaned any components, such as in the Tassimo for example, because the hot water is pressed directly through the capsule and the beverage directly in the cup runs.
The height adjustment by moving the cup footprint is good for my cups, I did not need more adjustment.
The XL function is ansich beautiful, that was a Kaufgrund..allerdings there are no major or capsules with more capacity in the trade in which one the (taste) can exploit. With a normal capsule, in the case Caffe Crema Grande, the drink with the XL-quantity water tasted me too watery.
Now comes the big "but" ... unfortunately could, especially in comparison to my Tassimo, which I really wanted to replace it with the Dolce Gusto, the coffee be hot when it lands in the cup. Is tipped another shot (fridge cold) milk and mix the coffee is lukewarm quickly, even if you preheat the cup and before the Dolce Gusto has flushed without capsule with hot water. I do not personally too cold to drink. With the Tassimo beverage stays hot for much longer.
The amount of coffee, which ends up in the cup, with the line-specification of Nestle is smaller than indicated. In the Dolce Gusto capsules apparently too much water remains "hanging". This can be seen well if you just times relates water without inserting a capsule, then determines the manufacturer's specification.
Pity the little Dolce Gusto unfortunately is no longer time beautify my kitchen ... a looker she is. :)
