Our new DeLonghi coffee machine makes a very good impression. Commissioning is simple and intuitive and takes little time to get used to it. Purification is carried out automatically before turning off the machine and does not require periodic cleaning with Hife of tablets, like other models. The coffee tastes a lot depends on the variety of Bohnehkaffees used for preparation. Here only one rule: the taste is not debated and any coffee fan must decide for themselves what kind of coffee they prefer blend. The "Italian" from the corner presents itself its mixtures ago, consisting usually of Arrabica and mild beans, according to its own "secret" recipe. However, practice is always worthwhile. The standard mixtures of rennomierten coffee maker are also made of the above varieties. I bought an Amazon Jacobs Carismo Caffè Crema Supremo, coffee, whole beans. He is a Arrabica variety is strong and slightly bitter in taste, but after admixing milder beans and also by adjusting the coffee strength on the machine to "mild" or "very mild", entstenen other, milder flavors. The machine consumes large amounts of water and the tank needs to be refilled more often, but is very accessible. The use of filters in the tank helps that the coffee water is purified and also easily decalcified, before cooking. Thus, even the coffee - improved taste. We hardly drink cappuccino, so I can not give a review about it. It's a good machine is worth to buy and Amazon has it, as usual, delivered quickly and efficiently.
