We have the coffee machine now for about 3 months. The machine makes very good coffee with great crema. The temperature of the coffee can be selected between three stages, as well as the strength of the coffee. The grinding is infinitely adjustable. The filling of cups is also infinitely adjustable. In addition, the milk can be sucked for the milk foam or hot milk directly from the milk carton. The coffee machine can be operated very easily and is almost self-explanatory. The coffee strength (more or less beans are ground and brewed) can be changed between the removal of several cups to taste easily. The machine makes easily a top-line milk foam which can easily keep up from the cafe with each cappuccino. So make cappuccino or cafe latte drinking fun. In addition, the machine can be cleaned very easily (the milk foam unit is easy to clean). The brewing unit can be removed with a few simple steps and cleaned manually. (There is also an automatic cleaning program at regular intervals). The volume during the grinding and brewing process is ok and normal. Known of us have a fully automatic Saeco is also far quieter. So in completely conventional noise of a coffee machine. Our conclusion is that we are with the coffee machine more than happy, would buy it again at any time and can only recommend it.
