We drink daily Expresso from an Italian fully automatic coffee machine that grinds fresh and prepared a strong good coffee. Our glass Expresso cups are - filled with coffee - opaque. When Senseo coffee you can look through the cups, even if you press the stop button, so that less water flows into the cup. If we want to prepare 2 cups of coffee Expresso, we put a 2 pads, but only press the 1-cup button. In this way, determines the amount of water. The coffee tastes acceptable, but can not be compared with the mentioned fully automatic. We will try different coffees and hope to find a strong. Very positive we evaluate the quick and easy preparation of the coffee, since we purchased the machine for our campers. The machine is likely to be even more compact for this purpose.
