Review on Krups Preference EA875E10 coffee machine, silver by Dorota Grobla ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

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

I bought this car to replace an old Magnifica. I love coffee with milk foam, so it was important to have a cappuccinatore and the ability to prepare two cups at once. The car looks attractive outwardly, when buying I was more guided by a site with a description of the possibilities. In fact, it turned out that intuitive control is completely devoid of common sense. And so, to turn on the machine, you must press the touch button. On dark plastic, when there is no bright light in the kitchen, it is problematic to see it. The button would not hurt to keep a little illuminated. The machine is quickly ready, the screen on which all drinks are visible lights up, everything is simple and clear. You have chosen a drink for yourself, press "start" and then the car is for you, and free both trays (for drops and cake). And you have two cups, a milk jug is connected (each time you need to unhook the hose), you put together quietly known words, take off the cups, turn off the milk jug, empty the trays, insert them into the machine, and immediately, without waiting for the cups, it starts to spin coffee and prepare a drink . You quickly put the cups on, turn on the milk jug, phew - you did it. Are you seriously? A machine with a fully electronic control does not immediately see, before choosing a program, that it is necessary to clean the pallets, and only informs you at the moment the preparation starts? Another nuance, please explain how cappuccino differs from flat white? Why can you make two cups of cappuccino at once, but not flat white? When this drink is selected, there is no doubling button on the screen. I could not understand the reason for the absence :) The drinks are the same in volume and preparation process, this can be seen even on the screen of the coffee machine. In general, take a look. A small lifehack to flush the hose and system from milk, you can rearrange the tube from the milk jug to a glass of clean water and turn on the preparation of hot milk. In general, the firmware is damp, it's a pity there is no ate by air or smart application.

Pros
  • Easy to control, nice appearance. Good for drinks with milk.
Cons
  • Budget plastic, illogical behavior of the device (in the comments), plastic milk jug. Short milk hose. Lack of automatic cleaning of the milk jug hose. It splashes. There is no turn-on timer in the morning (as on other Krups machines).
