Now for the details:
Benefits:
- Very many coffee variants possible
- Equipment generates solid milk froth is not equal to coincide
- Big water tank (even if there's visit must be not always replenished)
- Cheap pads available (per pad from about 8 ct)
- Reduced cleaning required (all removable parts can in the dishwasher!)
- Despite very hard water, the device would not yet be decalcified (it had nevertheless preventively performed 1x per year)
- 2 pad holder (small / large cup) with this
- Device automatically goes out when there is a long time not used
- Height-adjustable cup recording
- Brewing process can be interrupted at any time by turning off (very helpful when beginning times estimates the wrong cup size)
- Visually see the Kaffeespezialitätten with milk very appealing (cappuccino with a beautiful milk foam, Latte Macchiato in glass with 3 layers, etc.)
- All removable parts can be easily cleaned in the dishwasher.
Disadvantages:
- When using normal cups of coffee is cold quickly. Remedy offer thermal glasses, the coffee stays long in pleasant drinking temperature
- Due to the many plastic parts and the vibration of the pump device is relatively noisy (rattling). Since it with me but not in continuous operation runs no major shortcoming.
- For specialty coffees with milk always remains a small residual milk in the container.
- Quantity of coffee is tailored to small cups. Larger designs can be personalized but by "nachbrĂĽhen" with the same pad or brew filled with two pads easily.
- Milk container relatively small. But for all that it bothers there are now "tuning kits" with large milk container.
- Large (300ml) Latte Macchiato glasses only fit under the coffee outlet when the cup recording is completely removed.
- For me personally is the latte by foaming the milk "frothy" something. Remedy I could create by I warm milk in the cup in the microwave and then top the coffee liquor. Another advantage: The cup is also equally warm and the coffee will not soon cold.
Conclusion: Despite the listed disadvantage 5 stars because for my usage profile when used daily highly recommended. To switch from instant coffee to Padkaffee I have no regrets.
