The machine itself is held in matt black, which I not only look like very much, but also has the advantage that you do not see every Fingertapser and the exterior is therefore easy to clean. For me an important point, because I do not want to spend half my life with brush of any devices. In addition, all removable parts washers are fixed. The Anschaltknopf is not as usual, a tilting, but a push switch, the lights after pressing in a stylish blue. Since my kettle also has this color combination, the Krups coffee maker so it will fit perfectly into my kitchen image.
Before actual use, I let the machine three times passed only with water, so that eventually solve existing small dirt particles and the new smell evaporates. Even at that moment I was pleased that the pot is completely drip-free! Outstanding! The water tank must be filled easily, because the opening is large enough to be filled from the right, left or front. No circles, no fiddling, simply tilt. Either one is based on the capacity of the glass jug, or at the level indicator, which is right in front attached to the machine. Good to see so. The fact that the capacity of the coffee machine can be read also in the pot, you can put down the machine where you want, without worrying about the display, which I really liked well.
After I turned on the machine, it took only seconds, began to flow to hot water. Although it has not been cooked, but it's still so hot that you could be scalded. In a normal volume, the water is transported through the filter into the jug. Of course, I pulled away the jug during operation and presented enthusiastically stated that the drip finally stops what it promises: a drip! With me not came out of the smallest drops! Excellent!
After this test was passed, it was time to Preserved, ie from producing the black lifeblood. The filter can be swung by a lever knob, so that the coffee powder without complications can be filled. Krups supplies at the machine a coffee scoop with, but I use my own still. But the idea I found pleasant, because this is not yet, unfortunately, with all machines on the agenda. With a handle, the filter can easily remove for cleaning.
With ten or fifteen great little cups which Proaroma is a good size and is great for everyday use. The coffee tastes great and so as ever.
On top of the machine there are four vents so that the hot steam can escape. Of course, this steam is hot, but the rest of the machine takes this heat is not on, so I did not burn the fingers when touched.
A small drawback is the Proaroma by Krups, unfortunately. This is the cover of the coffee pot. The handle is lifted and then he pulled out of the pot. On the one hand this is good, of course, because so the lid can not simply fall from the pot down, but on the other hand, I'm always on the circles, if I want to make it on it. I am aware that this will pass after a few weeks in Rutine, but at the beginning is this to me noticed just unpleasant.
My Conclusion
A great coffee with enjoyment guaranteed!
