Capsule machine:
On the build quality of the device is nothing wrong in my view. All items will fit well in the machine, but are also no problems for flushing removed. The receptacle for the capsules offers enough space u. Right below that is a small drip tray, which ensures that the capsules u. U. not swim in a coffee grounds if you want to carry it in the yellow bag.
The large drip tray at the bottom is absolutely sufficient! With me never swims something because the machine hardly drips. The foldout Tassenhalterng I use only for espresso or small coffee cups. This keeps well and can be folded for large cups upwards.
The outlet head is firmly installed - no wobbling. The capsule lever is made of metal and. Looks very solid. The capsules can be clamped perfectly. NOTE: For the first 3 to 5 capsules I had the feeling that the machine had to pump strongly and formally dropped out of coffee - this has but then given by itself and since then everything works perfectly in the cup... The volume I feel as normal. Depending on the substrate / Sound this is felt probably more or less bad.
The water tank is slightly lower than the machine itself u. Thus be a little more space to the overlying kitchen cabinets (at least for me), so you can easily top up water without removing the tank!
The body can keep clean u. U can look very sophisticated. Despite stable plastic. The pedestal or base is also made of plastic, but also acts as a solid.
With regard to the operation of the device: The buttons respond well, everything is simple to use and also you start programming the amount of water could not be easier.!
NOTE: The switch-off is good, but what I would have liked would be a simple "on / off switch" on the side of the machine. The older devices, this had yet - here is probably for design reasons no longer exist.
Aeroccino:
First of all: The milk frother is of course in the base plate of the machine integrated, ie it is not separately usable. Who wants this nevertheless, both devices need to purchase separately ...
The Aeroccino is just great! It has two different panels for airy foam u. Dense foam which is depending on the protein content of the milk almost to the consistency of egg whites zoom. Perfect! Also burning here at nothing I've seen in other devices already rudimentary. No ground brownish greasy residues remain etc. Just rinse briefly wipe dry u. Finished. Thanks to the magnetic technique of soil has no hygienic vulnerability u. Is thus even easier to clean. Where other milk frother a lid need mandatory, because it so much injected, it is not absolutely necessary. With the lid closed you can hear it then actually not more. Whisper quiet! Here one has thought what in the design u. Each owner will have his true joy it! This is probably the reason why he is so popular and. The price continues to put on.
Price / quality and decision support:
If you consider that the Aeroccino separately here currently about 100, - costs and you, for 70 -. Gets capsules to be inserted now for the machine just yet 10, - on top of it. Of course this is related, on the one hand, the competition is not sleeping and. On the other hand the large turnover is already made in the subsequent capsule sale. A Nespresso capsule there are from 0.35 and has about 5 grams of coffee in it. 1kg or 200 capsules costs thus 70, -.
This is of course a proud coffee price! From accounting point of view, this convenient way of caffeine enjoyment hardly or at best for homes with a few coffee drinkers actually worth (I am the only one, for example). At 2-3 cups a day, one could at cost after one year actually already buy a fully automatic ...
=> But why one decides but for a Nespresso machine? You really want to belong to this lifestyle? The taste is really so much better? Questions, questions ...
For me, there were many reasons for a purchase:
19 bar pressure in a great design with small footprint; A far superior taste in a good recyclable capsule; faster and perfect milk froth. an incomparable service with plenty of choice and always new creations. I had the pad machines with the more durchnittlichen taste just so tired; A fully automatic machine would be for me alone to oversized u. I do not want to constantly brushing him. And after I had previously tested by almost all the competition, I can say for myself that I finally arrived.
CONCLUSION: So far I have not regretted my decision. On the contrary, I had to step only been more daring! Those who do not follow-up costs, the great machine must not miss, really. The refillable capsules are to work well, according to other reviewers u. Thus offer a cheaper alternative.
PS: If my review was helpful to you, I would be glad about answering "yes" at the end of a lot!
