Customer Review

So, I want a few words about our relatively new "treasures" write today.

We were now sworn to Senseo few years - we tasted the coffee and really good for our purposes, the machine was sufficient, since we are not a lot of coffee drinkers. However, our Senseo had so their quirks and basically do the two of us compared machinery diesbzgl. nothing. Since we had to descale our Senseo in recent months and more often and I always had to remove the printhead, so that we again had also full cups, we decided to buy a new machine. However, it should be a latte machine this time. Here we made a point that you can work with pads and that the capacity of the water and the milk container is large enough to comfortably up to 4 big pots to conjure us coffee without a renewed effort is required is.

We went out and looked at the new Senseo Latte at, nice but expensive (179-189 euros) and the KO criterion was here but the very small milk container.

So we looked further and we came then as an alternative to the Petra Artenso bar and I have to say, but the price of 89,90 Euro here at Amazon talked to us very, quite apart from the mostly positive reviews. Since the milk container is not integrated within the machine - which also offers the advantage of faster and better cleaning, one of our requests was already fulfilled. Also, the water tank is large enough so that you can drink some coffee pots without fill. What we also particularly well-liked, the controller for an individual amount of coffee and that you can handle without problems ground coffee - a not to be underestimated advantage in the sometimes quite lush Padpreisen. So the decision was made quickly because at the price we did not find anything comparable.

Here we experienced again the incredibly fast delivery service Amazon. We had ordered the machine at night and two days later she was already in the morning with us.

I had to treat immediately unpacked (very nice design) directly Macchiato a delicious latte to me. The machine was installed in accordance with an absolute breeze and after about 20 minutes she was ready to go (and I am a woman ;-)). Milk was in the vessel next to it, I pushed two pads in the pad holder (the conveniently for both a and two pads is intended - just turn and push) and came immediately to the problems here already often described, that the controller is not all the way let move left. So I pulled the pads out again and put it, as described in detail in the instructions for use, so that in the middle of a small depression is created and the pads carefully deposits at the edge in the holder. I pushed the holder again and the regulator could be move easily. Then I tried to make my bar glass including - unfortunately non-existent, since the glass was too large. So I took a large, pot-bellied cup (though does not look nice, but the matched grip) and Los ging`s. The coffee looked as good as from our Senseo. But then came the absolutely solid and tasty milk froth - I can only say - the taste was really excited me. A little tip: You should make sure that the cups, for example, are preheated with hot water, because the coffee remains so longer nice and hot..

By now I've drunk some coffee varieties from our Petra. I've found that there are pads that fit better and then again which are not that great, but fit both Senseo, and Aldi Pads wonderful. If you insert the pads neatly into the machine, then there should be no problems. I can not imagine how it would technically fold because prerequisite is ALWAYS push the knob to the left. If the knob is all the stand (there can be solved the pod holder), then hums the machine and some water runs out, even if the controller was not pushed all the way to the left, there are problems. But that one should simply note and we had our Senseo such problems also. If there the pads were not inserted properly, the water also came out to the sides.

The milk foam unit works really great. I just wanted to write - easy - but you should not let children better because there is a danger of scalding from hot steam (but specifically mentioned), but that's with hot milk foam ;-) The foam is good and solid, also remains quite long in this state. But I can recommend to take a 3.5% milk and you should make sure that the milk is cold. The cleaning of the unit is very fast and is quite simple. Since the milk container is placed just next to the machine, you can wash it in a dishwasher this course.

Conclusion: If you make sure that the pads neatly einliegen, the slider is moved fully to the left, the cups are previously heated with hot water, the milk is nice and cold, then each day can Macchiato with a super tasty, nice warm bar, cappuccino, espresso or coffee start. I do not want to miss the Petra Artenso bar and think the little problems that I have mentioned, all the other "small" latte machine also, however, one must then pay for a good deal more.
From me thus the Petra gets the absolute recommendation!
