Since we are in possession of a fully automatic, it is for more than five years of the first ground coffee, which finds its way into our household. First Appearance: Elegant, understated elegance But coffee is not a good look, but taste! So can on and the first sick absorbed: Beguiling aroma! In the absence of a traditional espresso cooker or a Siebträgermaschine I prepared the coffee in the fully automated and, according to instructions scoop in the coffee chute of the machine. Aanschließend the first shock: The coffee is very finely ground, so that the pump obviously has problems and the difficulty dribbling coffee arrives in the cup. So the next time you try a pinch less powder and see: The lesser amount is less compressed and the water flow is noticeably better! Zwischenffazit: For fully automatic coffee this is not optimal, because some ground too fine, but the product description has also explicitly refer to the use in espresso coffee machines and espresso maker. So no deduction at this point! To taste: If I thought so far, a coffee from freshly ground beans should be topped by anything (except by Italians from the 20,000 euros Machine), has taught me this Ristretto better. Black, strong, hard acid - a treat! Next try was the preparation as Lungo, so as a regular serving of coffee. Again, the Dark Blend Ristretto, compared with our standard beans, but these are also much cheaper, fully convince Conclusion: In our bay bean coffee machines stored as before the standard coffee for everyday use, but this little gem and looking to box is right next to it recently - for special coffee moments. And who loves these moments and she divides well as those who should be willing to lie around 30 euros for a kilo of the finest coffees. Yes, and if now is a "real" espresso machine available, which is a really good thing!
