To thermos:
The lid is not to rotate. He has 2 snapper that you have to push. And then the lid is open. If the lid to the pot is tight. It can be poured without dripping and really completely without spilling.
The water tank:
It is located halfway around the rear engine. Is to be filled from both sides. A well-read scale on both sides helps to pour too much .. There is an overflow hole.
Filters:
There is a removable IR cut filter. It fit the size 4 filter bags clean. If you want to save, be a permanent filter sets to.
The Machine:
There are 2 buttons. On / Off switch (green light) and a Calc switch (red light).
In addition, the water hardness be set via the CALC key. The default setting is hardness. 4
About the IR cut filter is a knob for adjusting the intensity / strength of coffee. There are 7 settings. From weak to strong.
Dimensions and power numbers:
The cable measures 100cm incl. Connector. It is partially stowed in the bottom of the machine.
The overall height (with opening of the water tank) is 47cm.
Power consumption during brewing under 1000W (varies betw 960W -. 915W)
After scalding, the machine switches off immediately and the power consumption is at 0W.
But after a few minutes to permanently 0.2W and with the machine off. I pull the plug.
Brewing coffee:
At first use one should 2x at max. Let through without powder amount of water.
Then the machine can be completely filled with normal coffee. The Brühgeräusch is very quiet. The smoke coming out through the filter at the front. No rattle at the end. It runs quietly and as well as the last drop is gone, the machine switches off. The coffee is pleasantly hot.
The Melitta coffee is in my opinion almost perfectly. Only the serving temperature can not choose even one. But there is certainly limits.
For filter coffee drinkers a very nice device for fine coffee, which also still looks good in the kitchen.
