IF you see a red screen on your display for dumping your grounds PLEASE leave your machine on and remove the tray then dump the grounds. That way the machine will read that you dumped the grounds. I tried and tried by turning off the machine then dumping the grounds but the machine wouldn't work. I saw an Italian video on this and presto it worked by leaving the machine on for any red light display. Have fun, I hope you enjoy the machine like I do everyday.
One thing that I can't figure out is how to adjust the grinder setting because as soon as the door opens, the grinder stops. I got around it by using a small toy magnet to fool the door switch. But nothing in the manual indicates this design flaw.
Also because beans fill from one side and water from the other, a convenient spot for the machine is hard to find where both sides need access.
The brew group seems robust and appears similar to all Saeco designs. The screens have larger openings which make me wonder if there is sufficient pressure to properly extract all the coffee from the beans. And since the lower screen is not removable, I wonder about cleaning.
The large dregs hopper is great and the tray catches the drippings well but I still see some debris on the counter below the machine. Not sure what is overflowing.
The bypass chute for ground coffee is terrible. The small round opening makes it difficult to put coffee in and spillage is inevitable. Its integration into the whole bean hopper makes for potential cross contamination. And makes it less convenient for that single afternoon decaf coffee.
Good part is that it's quiet, warms up quickly and makes a nice cup of coffee as well as a good espresso that exhibits excellent body and crema.
All super automatic machines have quirks and this one has a few but overall I like the machine (for the price). Would not have paid the $999 retail price if it was not on sale.
I have a strong preference for super-automatic expresso machine as freshly-grounded coffee from coffee beans tend to bring out the full aroma of the coffee beans. Therefore this review is based on 2 prior uses; Saeco Incanto Classic and Gaggia Brera.
First, the product does not come with an intenza water filter, the same type of Intenza water filter used in Saeco Incanto Classic and Gaggia Brera. I highly recommend the installation of the Intenza water filter. There is a menu option to indicate water filter is not used. The manual does not indicate what type of changes when water filter is and is not used.
Second, this product produces awesome creamy milk frotht!!!. I was not able to obtain the same quality of froth from Saeco Incanto Classic and Gaggia Brera. The steam is much stronger so be extra watchful.
Third, this comes with a LCD screen that allows 7 options:
(1) Coffee Temperature (2) Standby (3) Display Contrast {4) Water Hardness (5) Water Filter (6) Start Calc Clean (7) Reset.
It allows more customization such as coffee temperature, water hardness adjustment.
Finally, the exterior of this product is mainly plastic, as compared to my 2010 Saeco Incanto Classic, which had metal casing.
Overall, I like this super-automatic expresso machine!
