The version 2 of Philips coffee pad machine has compared to "old" two distinct advantages:
1. You can now make higher topsy cups because the orifice is 1.5 cm fitted higher.
2. The date for Version 1 squeaky already factory opening mechanism has been fundamentally improved.
However, the amount of finished coffee regulates the machine. So you press either the "1 Cup" or "2", specifies a corresponding number of pads and then get the appropriate amount of drink. Since the unit can not impress the way also from a big cup.
The "Senseo" is working with coffee pods, which in this country of Douwe Egberts in four varieties are (Vivid, Mild, Normal, decaffeinated). In the home country of the machine and the coffee (the Netherlands), there are four varieties MORE: "Mocca Gourmet" should try that tastes creamy delicious. New are three towns named after varieties, two of them easily flavored. Also in this country is obtained (partly in "bargain markets") other third-party pads.
