So, the preparation of the beverage is easy, the drinks (we tried everything) are excellent and meet our criteria ssowie those of our guests.
The Cappucino, coffee ... tastes just as good.
The coffee is hot enough, the milk foam firm and absolutely warm enough (we use 1.5% milk, others may work as well). The noise level is acceptable in business, other machines were not silent.
Very nice is the correct sequence of milk and coffee, depending on the beverage. The milk is in preparation of pure milk, however, warm rather than hot, the water is in preparation of "only" water just enough hot. Since we bought a KVA and no egg-laying Wollmichsau, does not bother us.
Class is the custom programmability of drinks, hereby everyone gets in the family (provided that no more than 4 different requests are made) his individual coffee, cappucino ... During preparation, the mixture can still be changed, the change does not take on the respective programming station stored.
Also, prior to the preparation nor the number of cups on two (standard is a) increased and moment during the preparation the coffee strength are changed (at the very beginning).
The cleaning is very simple, especially the removable brewing unit seems very useful because during the weekly cleaning always neat coffee residues adhere (where are the in the other, with what pressure are the rinsed?). After enjoying cappuccino or other preparations with milk asks the machine for Easy Cleaning (short-cleaning with hot water and steam) to, thereby coming into contact with milk parts are rinsed.
A word about the drip tray while the flushing we an old cup under the beverage outlet and catch the emerging flushing water on. An empty the drip tray after 4 Cappucino (I read in a review) has never happened to me. I do not count the events, but we empty the drip tray in heavy use at weekends usually max. once per day (about 10 covers).
From me therefore 5 star.
Edit 26/06/2013
Even after more than 2,500 references has not changed our impression that the coffee machine is really good and works with appropriate care in accordance with operating instructions continue to perfect. Strong buy recommendation.
