As a coffee filter is Type 4 is used, which is available to buy in any store. To clean the filter holder can be removed, in which you open the removable IR cut filter to the side. Such banalities be an ordeal for many an other manufacturer. Either can be impossible or take fiddly the portafilter. There are also machines that are filled from the top, where the lid does not close when the thermos is in the machine itself.
If there are no such problems Melitta. Even an illuminated switch is no longer a standard nowadays. Many manufacturers saves away even the light, you have to imagine this. The machine has of course drip stop that prevents the dripping of coffee. With several other brands it does not drip anyway, at Melitta.
The special feature of the machine Melitta is the so-called aroma selector. This coffee is more or less watered, so that it tastes strongly or lax. Who the same grade and in the morning and evening drinks a lot of coffee every day, this feature is greatly appreciated. Once the coffee is brewed to an end, the machine switches off, because it has an automatic shut-off.
The thermos is very thick, so the coffee for a long time and is really warm. Pouring it can be by pushing a button, or by pressing the shutter lever down. That's well done. From the rotary closure I'm not a big friend, because you fluttered now and then or turning up too far and the coffee hingießt anywhere but into the cup. To clean the Thermos, the lid can be removed completely.
For perfect coffee Melitta recommends 6g coffee per large cup. Who simply has no special teaspoon Melitta write a nice letter, then you get free such as Melitta sent lovers. That is called customer loyalty.
With the machine I am very satisfied. You met with flying colors its purpose.
