Saeco HD8763 / 01 Minuto coffee machine, ceramic grinder, milk jug, black (household goods)

Customer Review

I, too, have long thrown in as a coffee machine an eye.
Always have ever looked again here and there.
For me, the following points were important.

- Grinder for coffee beans
- Height-adjustable spout
- Removable brewing unit
- Easy cleaning
- Milk frother with milk container

At coffee types of normal coffee, espresso and cappuccino are important to me.
And now came for me but after a long search for an unbeatable offer me.
Have this Saeco Minuto HD8763 / 01 get in for 333 MM euros,
I could not say no, and quite honestly, until now I'm down to a
Trifle top satisfied.

Equal first to all who want to buy the machine, you should be equal to the right
Download operating at Philips. The included Quick Step Instructions
is kind of confusing and especially not for the vain nearsighted because you get
even with glasses eye cancer. The PDF of the Internet is definitely there much
understandable.

In addition to the coffee machine I have the Saeco CA6706 / 00 all-Care "
bought. Whether you really must have, or not, each is left to itself.
The Brita water filter Intenza + you should already have, for the simple reason that no lime
Is guaranteed basic. Anders is the case when one uses already softened water.

The installation of the Brita water filter Intenza + "is very simple. One should before installing
adjust the firmness of the filter, and pay particular attention to the seal during installation,
that this does not slip. Since this filter has to be replaced after a certain time,
you should activate the filter replacement in the machine menu, so that you through the filter change
will be notified. Once, in my view, I have very simple structure once
made a complete idle, so that all lines and containers once completely
were rinsed, but you need to have more than one 1 liter collecting container under
the water nozzle fits underneath.

After everything has been purged, you can refill the water tank to either remove
or one filled him directly. Since the water reservoir is extremely fit, creating
I do not, without the water running next to it, so I befülle this rather directly, without
refer this. When the bean container Filling should precaution the
Cover of the water tank are closed, otherwise it can happen that
Beans fall into the water tank, as happened with me.

It does not fit many beans purely because the container is relatively flat, which also certainly the
is due to the compact size. By the beans grind adjustment is concealed.
with this you can adjust the grinder in 5 steps, from the factory, the center position
set. One should adjust the grind but only when the ceramic grinder in
Operation is. I still have it on in the middle position, as I said the coffee
tastes best.

I now times for menu navigation and key layout. This is very simple.
Links are the buttons for the types of coffee and the right of the settings.
The Special button is either for or frothed milk for tea water there.
With the aroma button does one determine how much beans ground or whether pre-ground
Wants to take coffee. And the menu you can see the coffee temperature, the standby timer,
Display contrast, water hardness, adjust water filter, in addition there's the
Descaling mode and reset to factory settings.
With the keys of the coffee types, which simultaneously have a memo function, allows the
Define capacity. Unfortunately, this memo function is only possible once for each type of coffee,
which I now do not feel as disturbing.

In daily use has been shown that just the drip tray is very fast.
Actually, I empty it almost daily. If you have this one out, you can sit right
the coffee grounds container empty, while it is better if the coffee machine is on, as this
so only learns that the grounds container is also emptied. Should this once
forget just the drip for about 5 sec. Pull out. But pull out the
it sure that the coffee outlet is located at the top, since the, I'd say, bulkhead
is related to it. The drip tray is a red float, which indicates when the tray is full.
I always notice this when the cup do not push yourself right under the coffee spout
leaves. The machine does so each time a cleaning and after each use,
when it is turned off thereafter, but no later than when the power goes off, a
Cleaning. The water can absorb more than a cup, so the drip tray is not
quite as quickly.

Regarding the milk container, this should be really no further than up "filling.,
otherwise the milk runs out, despite sealing the container.
When you have 2 things Cappuccino note all you have to think about it, the
Push out frother up to the stop, otherwise the whole water vapor goes into
the container and you should position the cup under the frother so that the milk
then actually runs into the cup. For me it has been found that the bulge in
the middle of the milk container the optimum position for the cup is what size matter.
With coffee or espresso cup can confidently push up against the wall / make.

With regard to the storage and cleaning of the milk container and the frother!
I place the container generally closed frother after almost every use in
the refrigerator. Since I use milk with 3.5%, which is in itself not a problem.
But in the manual also is that you can take it with milk more than 3%
should. In less it may happen that the foaming process is not functioning properly.
The one can operate with a pre-heated cup counter. Good for where Instant hot
Water from the tap comes. But as I said, for me there are no problems.
On average, I clean the container and the foamer every 2 days a dishwasher.
For this purpose, the creamer can milk container incl. Very easy and especially non-violent
disassemble. Actually, all this is self-explanatory, but it is also in the
Manual (PDF from p.43). And if I'm going again, comes the
Drip tray incl. Cup tray and the previously empty coffee grounds container in the
Dishwasher. Small parts in the cutlery basket and off you go in the Eco wash cycle.

As can be seen from the brewing unit yes, I clean them with a wet rag and
the rest I rinse off under a tap. Now I have already read desöfteren
that this should be a sticky issue, that is true to the extent that here because
the many moving parts much grease is present. I see this not as a problem,
if you keep the brew group correctly, the hands are virtually fat-free.
Cleaning the brewing unit Doing min. once a month and lasts max. 10min.

My previous conclusion, the coffee machine is absolutely great for the price. This coffee machine
is very compact, not much bigger than my coffee. That there is no
Are stainless steel veneer, the appearance bothers very little. I like the design.
So far, he is reliable and the most important, all 3 types of coffee taste good.
The only complaint, if it is because of that the drip fairly quickly
(6-8 cups) is full.
