Review on Carob coffee maker Polaris PCM 1527E Adore Crema, champagne by Ada Nowakowska ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

In general, everything is not bad, but I expected more.

[! COFFEE MAKER 2 MONTHS! signs appeared from the 5th circle]. In order: 1. aluminum pallet rattles like an airplane on takeoff from vibrations; 2. on the 2nd month (due to vibrations) the handle flew off the horn, or glue, or pick out the plug on the end of the handle to screw in the bolt. Glue plug; 3. the instruction manual is the most disgusting (description in the 4th paragraph); 4. Highlight: it has a timer or a heating element relay. There is no mention of this in the instructions. The bottom line is that if you immediately insert the horn and start making coffee, as soon as the heating lamp stops flashing (top button) and you press coffee preparation (middle button), water is poured for 20 seconds, after that the top button starts flashing, press again on middle button and immediately remove the cup of delicious espresso. [20 seconds is a ristretto (even stronger), but because the pump flow is made under the timer (i. E. it is a little more than in all the others) - it turns out espresso] here there is a countdown of 20 seconds of making coffee, until the light starts flashing again (the pictures on the buttons indirectly correspond to this), but there is not a word in the instructions. if it stays on for another 10 seconds (i. E. the light is no longer blinking, but you are not making coffee yet), you will have 10 seconds left to make more or less hot coffee. because after 10 seconds the relay of the heating element will reset and the coffee will cool down in the cup in the same 10 seconds)))) There is also no description of purging the water supply path (although it is drawn on the cappuccinatore switch) - in case you aired the path (because you turned on the coffee maker without water in the tank) 5. The cappuccinatore does not have enough time and energy to beat 20 ml of milk at a time due to the same reset relay embedded under the timer. : don't do like me, don't buy Polaris, don't save money, buy a normal cezve/turk/fernch press. S.: if you have not worked with coffee makers before, I do not advise you to make 2 mugs at once. S. S.: Lavazza's universal grind is too fine for her.

Pros
  • Design, templates in a set for cappuccino.
Cons
  • 1. Noise; 2. coffee horn design; 3. instruction manual; 4. design of the coffee maker itself (electronics); 5. cappuccinatore.
