The three stars are awarded for the quality of coffee to the Talea outputs. And you can really! With the connected Milk Iceland can in a very short time a large amount of milk foam easily produced. The islet is simple to clean and saves one the hassle of the standard steam nozzle. The objection that milk would run through the Milk-Iceland in the machine (back?) I can not understand and I think the expression of technological ignorance. Now to the point deductions: a major shortcoming is certainly that our Talea had for repairs after only three months! After only the Milk-Iceland was no longer recognized by the control unit, the machine short time later began to grind all alone coffee beans to a fine powder and dry slot them into the waste container. They could be cast only by turning it off. Then it was off to the workshop. Unfortunately, the manufacturer needed beaten five weeks and parts for a total of 300 (!) - EUR (according to invoice, but at the warranty.) To make the machine ready for use again. In time, the old filter machine had to serve again. Hopefully the Talea is intact longer this time. A few little things bother you the full enjoyment: that the water tank is empty, you can tell by the indicator on the display and at the same time also that the machine emits only half a cup at a time ... Before was better. It's the same with the beans, even here there is only an error saying if it's already too late. With technical innovation which has nothing to do with Saeco - at the price a great pity! Nevertheless, one gets with the Talea coffee .... because sometimes one longs when Italians almost home because he tastes better there. The intensity of the crema can be continuously regulated and the milk foam is terrific! Therefore the already anticipated conclusion again: if it is not broken ...! :-))
