Product Description
The fully removable water tank and bean container are just some of the most desirable features packed into the coffee team Pro plus line. It is widely known that fresh grinding your beans is the optimal way to prepare drip- style coffee, but for the first time ever, The Coffee team Pro plus allows for complete access to the solid steel conical burr. The intricate design of the conical steel burrs provides for a higher gear Reduction to slow down the grinding speed below 500 rpm. The slower the speed, the less heat that is imparted to the ground Coffee thus preserving maximum aroma. The two-step grind and clean process ensures no beans and minimal ground Coffee are left in the grinder after use. Fully adjustable grind and cup settings make it easy to craft the perfect brew no matter your strength preference, and the all new "oily" Bean setting, and the redesigned, low friction bean container automatically compensates for slower feeding Dark roasts.Freshness seal bean container lid preserves coffee flavor

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

"...I enjoy taking things apart, so I find this machine relatively easy to clean and it appears that some thought went into the design to allow for this...." Read more
"...- Cleaning is awkward at best. One must use the supplied brush to clean out a chute that you cannot see without considerable effort...." Read more
"...The Capresso grinder does not need daily cleaning; just clean the filter and pot, then fill the water tank and check the bean supply...." Read more
"...We've only had it a few days but so far I am impressed. Easy to clean (we've not had to clear the chute yet) and makes a good pot of coffee...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the appearance of the coffee maker. Some mention it looks impressive, has a better design, and the glass carafe is nicer than previous model. However, others say it's impossible to keep clean and the carafer design is crazy stupid.
"...I like the display and the glass carafe is nicer/bigger than previous model...." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the lid of the coffee maker. They mention that it comes loose, the carafe lid seal breaks, and the lid to the bean hopper does not secure. Some say that the machine stops when the top cover is jarred loose. Overall, customers are not happy with the quality and functionality of the lid.
"...After two or three days of use, the rubber lid on the hopper loosened up to the point where it would not stay down and the machine would not work...." Read more
"...one minor annoyance that I've learned to overcome: The bean hopper lid must be fully seated to activate the safety switch, or the coffee maker wo..." Read more
"...malfunctioned and the unit quit brewing all together because the switch was broken leaving the circuit open which prevents the unit from operating...." Read more
"...Finally, as others have pointed out, the coffee hopper has a brown lid which keeps you from being able to see how much coffee is in the hopper...." Read more
Customers find the coffee maker to be too finicky and complex to use. They also say the directions are unclear and the machine is bulky and heavy. Customers also mention that the product is not worth the mess and trouble, and takes a fair amount of time each day.
"...thin sheets tacked on over lots of cheap plastic and some of the assembly was done incorrectly..." Read more

"...It seems they develop a leak after 3 years that is hard to fix. Also you cannot get replacement parts for them. Which is a shame...." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the noise produced by the coffee maker. They mention that it makes extremely loud beeps when using any button on the panel and when brew is on. The burr grinder starts making a horrible noise and would no longer grind. Some say that the grinder makes a weird humming and clicking noise then shuts. Over time, the grinder becomes louder, making the water heating process progressively louder. Some customers also report that the grind volume is inconsistent.
"...Burr grinders are not quiet. this one is not as loud as the Cuisnart and does a better job of making good coffee." Read more
"...Put beans in, filter in and water. It set to grinding. Yes it's noisy but they all are. We had it set on 4 cups, fine grind for a full pot...." Read more
"...Since my bedroom is a good distance from the kitchen, the noise is not a problem." Read more
"...The water heating process has gotten progressively louder over time and results in excessive condensation and occasional small puddles of coffee..." Read more

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Second, I consider myself to be extremely handy and capable of fixing almost anything that is user-serviceable, that is, things that don't require total destruction of the outer case in order to gain access to the broken parts. I do not, however, own a fully stocked electronics workshop or a home-hardware-store.
The Pros:
When it works, the machine actually makes great coffee. It felt odd that while giving it a one-star review I also gave high marks for taste, ease of use and easy to clean. While pausing to reflect on this, I realized that the occasional success of a good cup of coffee from a machine built for the sole purpose of making coffee is no success at all. If I wanted the "occasional" win I would have purchased a roulette wheel.
I enjoy taking things apart, so I find this machine relatively easy to clean and it appears that some thought went into the design to allow for this. Others may not feel the same.
It has very few features and definitely no unneeded bells or whistles. This is a plus in my opinion as I don't need to work my way around features that I'll never use. Given that the few functions this machine is tasked with barely ever work, adding bells and whistles would have just added more things to fail so I am grateful they spared everyone that anguish.
The Cons:
After a single use of the machine (yes, use number 1) the drip-stop valve, which is nothing more than a spring-loaded plastic shaft with a rubber washer on it, popped off upon cleaning and the rubber washer went down the drain. I will be generous and write this off as user error despite feeling that it could have been designed not to allow this to happen. My wife actually did this the first time but it happened a second time when I was using machine number 2 so apparently this part must be handled with kid gloves unless you enjoy repairing things yourself.....which I did both times.
You will find other reviews about the safety switch on the bean hopper failing after very little use. Believe every one of them. After two or three days of use, the rubber lid on the hopper loosened up to the point where it would not stay down and the machine would not work. Again, this is an easy fix for anyone capable of troubleshooting the problem…..but can someone please tell me why I was troubleshooting problems and modifying the machine after less than a week of use?
I encountered another problem with the water tank needing to be reseated prior to each use if I wanted to increase my chances of brew success. Sadly, I now suffer from coffee-anxiety, wondering if my machine will actually brew coffee or require a toss out the window upon failure. Initially I wasn't removing the tank to fill it, so sometimes it would brew, others it would simply beep twice at the programmed time which is both annoying and not particularly helpful in terms of troubleshooting the failure and subsequent lack of coffee in my cup. I wonder how much time I will waste trying to prevent the failure of what would normally be a time-saving machine. After all, if I wanted to spend 20 minutes making coffee every morning I would have stuck with my pour-over which requires a separate grinder, a separate kettle, time spent boiling, time spent pouring, time spent waiting for it to pass thru and time spent cleaning.....which in retrospect still seems less stressful than this machine. Do yourself a favor and reseat the water tank every time if you do buy this machine.
At the end of week one, the machine delivered its coup de grace, with the water heater burning out and the glorious smell of roasted electronics.
Since the company that makes this nightmare was closed due to the pandemic and most likely sitting on a pile of customer inquiries the size of Everest, I decided to contact Amazon customer service which, as usual, was excellent.....quickly issuing a return mailing label and subsequent refund. No complaints there.
I suppose the story should have ended here but, without digressing into an explanation of autoimmune diseases and the sleep requirements of one in particular, let's just say that laziness is not the reason my wife was so excited to NOT have to go thru the 20 minute manual brewing process described above, so I decided to replace the machine with a new one.....believing that perhaps I just got a lemon. Clearly I would have had more success actually trying to brew coffee with a lemon than I would with this machine.
After a couple uses and the same water tank, drip-stop valve and bean hopper lid problems described above, the replacement machine started (occasionally) shutting off after grinding the beans and showing a blinking clock as if the power went out in the house. The only problem is that in addition to the unlikelihood of multiple power-outages at the exact moment of brewing, every other appliance in the house would be working, so the problem is not with the power the outlet. I did switch outlets to test this and it should be noted that other high-draw appliances such as the aforementioned water kettle work fine in the same outlets without blowing a circuit breaker or shutting off. Apparently the problem lies with my coffee maker purchase decision making...…
Even if you consider yourself very handy and capable of fixing things, I recommend not purchasing this machine unless you also hold a degree in electrical engineering and you own a really sweet set of tools.
During my initial warranty period, the machine developed a problem. THE COMPANY SENT WE A LABEL VIA EMAIL, i HAD THE ORIGINAL PACKAGING TO SHIP IT BACK. I SENT IT WITH THEIR LABEL AND IT WAS IN THEIR FACILITY FOR 2 DAYS AND RETURNED TO ME IN LESS THAN A WEEK. LOVE, LOVE LOVE THIS COMPANY. TOTAL 5* RATING BECAUSE OF SERVICE AFTER THE SALE. .First, there is a difference in price. cappresso is a BETTER value for the money; while I have had a number of Cuisinart Grind and Brews, they all broke down way too quickly for me. Yes, I purchase the extended warranty because Cuisinart is almost guaranteed to break down after a year and a half to 2 years. Unbeknownst to me, It is dependent on the beans you grind (or so says Capresso). I prefer a dark roast like French Roast as it is lower in caffeine but has a more robust flavor. If you grind dark/French Roast beans you will need to replace Cuisinart sooner than if you grind a lighter roast with less oily beans. Capresso allows you to choose a coarse, medium or fine grind BUT DOESN'T RECOMMEND FINE WITH OILY BEANS. THERE IS ALSO A CLEANING CYCLE ON THE CAPRESSO TO PREVENT PROBLEMS AS WELL AS AN OILY SETTING TO PROVIDE AN EXTRA CLEANING CYCLE WITH OILY BEANS. It doesn't appear to be effective. Not only does the bean grinder go out but there are times when the timer i properly set and the machine grinds the beans but doesn't start the brewing process at all. It matters when you get up at 4 am and expect coffee to be ready.
The Capresso has an OILY setting which I keep on for oily beans. The oily setting means the grinder runs a tad longer to make sure the hopper doesn't get jammed up with beans. There are settings (Coarse, medium, fine) for grind and an additional OILY button if you choose to use oily beans. The Capresso does not recommend a fine grind with oily beans as it could wear out the grinder faster. I use the coarse setting. Save your receipt, provide simple information and they just refund your purchase price, the price of the warranty right on Amazon and you can use the credit for anything you want, not just what you purchased. I have collected 5 times on Square Trade.
Capresso: the pour spout is impressive. It is wider, sloping so that you can pour into a cup or mug flawlessly. The basket for the grinder involves a push button to open, pop out the basket, dump the grounds, replace it. I rinse it lightly but assembling for morning went from 7 minutes on Cuisinart to about 2 minutes, including checking to be sure the bean hopper has enough beans. Coffee stays hot for up to 2 hours on the plate without burning but it is drinkable hot. Not drinkable warm, rather hotter than the Cuisinart, which delivered burnt flavored coffee after an hour.
NOISE: The Capresso does not wake me in the morning like the Cuisinart used to. Burr grinders are not quiet. this one is not as loud as the Cuisnart and does a better job of making good coffee.

Sad to say you should look elsewhere for your coffee fix
