Incanto Classic Espresso Machine Silver Review

Incanto Classic Espresso Machine Silver
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

Actually I have this machine. I wrote this below review for older model.


I got this machine from ebay because for lower price was available there.

So I have used it already for one month. The espresso is coming out a fabulous, I think better, then Starbucks, even I have used Starbucks beans. I have tried three types of beans (Lavazza, Starbucks, Costco Hawaiian (yellow package) brand), so the best taste and creamy was from Costco Hawaiian brand. Lavazza in other hand was creamy but is not strong enough.

The cleaning is easy and fast. The frothing pitcher is produced good milk for cappuccino. I don't have any problems with this machine.

I have also noticed that me and my family is started consuming more coffee. I last time I have bought Starbucks coffee was just a day before I got this fabulous machine.

Also I will to suggest a follow the user manual and if you don't now something called to CS Saeco[...]

Because remembering, its European product, so it's like a German car- amazing to drive but easy to break, if you're not followed to user manual.

I gave four stars is only because the trash container need to be emptied too often, even the last one was not full and water container I wish will be bigger.

Gaggia 11300 Baby D Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

This machine could not be better. It's a Porche. Clean, efficient, easy to use and maintain, and makes great espresso. I had a Krupps and a Seco before and this machine makes those seem like toys. I'd recomend this without reservation. My only complaint is the size of the water tank (too small requiring frequent refilling, though that is very easy to do).

Product Description

Gaggia has revolutionized a classic machine for 2006. The Baby D retains the commercial quality parts you have come to expect and adds 2 programmable dosing brew buttons, which provides unparalleled flexibility and convenience when brewing espresso. Programming is easy with a simple "press and hold" method. The Baby D distinguishes itself by sporting a 3 way solenoid valve that gives the in house Barista a nice, dry espresso puck after brewing - meaning less mess and a quicker, easy clean up. To brew a commercial quality espresso you need a portafilter that is of commercial size, design and weight. The Baby D comes with a 58mm, 16 oz chrome plated brass portafilter, which provides excellent heat retention (just like the coffee shops use) and is pod capable (ESE coffee pod ready). Gaggia's Baby D features a brew group forged to commercial standards. The solid marine brass core is chrome-plated, giving maximum heat retention and durability where it matters the most. Gaggia's 55 watt water pump is one of the strongest in the industry. The Baby D has a 48 oz reservoir and recently improved on the turbo frother, producing a large amount of creamy froth without the hassle of "working the milk". The Baby D also comes with; Single/POD & double stainless steel filter baskets, coffee tamper and 7 gram coffee scoop. This is one of Gaggia's premier semi-automatics.

Technivorm KBT-741 Moccamaster polished silver Coffee Maker 1.25-L. Review

(More customer reviews)

I've been using this coffee maker since my Cuisinart Grind and Brew disappointed me for the last time. They sell this coffee maker at the local coffee shop here in Chicago, Intelligentsia... great coffee BTW. It was the only coffee maker they sold, and the one of the best recommended by Coffee Geek [...]. I've been very happy with the consistently good coffee that this machine produces. The carafe keeps the coffee warm for about eight hours, it brews fast, and is quiet. I think it happens to be beautiful to look at as well. It's about as simple as they come, no bells and whistles here... just for purists. Technivorm also has very good customer service, which is nice for a company to offer these days. I would buy it again, hands down.

Product Description

The Technivorm Moccamaster KBT-741 Clubline brewer is a simple, precise and elegant electric drip brewer. No gadgets here. This is a handmade coffeemaker built in Holland. The main asset of the Moccamaster is its ability to maintain perfect brewing temperature throughout the entire brewing cycle, an attribute that has earned it certification from at least two coffee trade associations. This is a quality product, done simply.It uses an independent energy-efficient heat exchanger that brews directly into the stainless-steel-lined ThermoJug server. That means your coffee maintains an optimal temperature between 194 and 204??F. A consistent temperature is key to preserving the flavors and aromas of coffee, and this machine does just that. It also brews a full pot in about 5-6 minutes.The Technivorm Thermal takes an exceptional machine ??? the Technivorm Clubline KB 741 ??? and improves upon it by replacing a hot plate with a thermal carafe. There???s a reason that Technivorm has created 1 of only 2 machines that meet the Specialty Coffee Association of America???s (SCAA) certification standards, and that???s because its design preserves the entire spectrum of flavors in every cup. Water is heated and passes through the coffee consistently, brewing quickly and quietly. It is also approved by the European Coffee Brewing Centre (ECBC) and Specialty Coffee Association of Europe (SCAE). Only a h

CBTL Kaldi S04 Single Cup Brewer, Blue/Silver Review

CBTL Kaldi S04 Single Cup Brewer, Blue/Silver
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

NOTE: I have the blue/silver model shown here in the photo I uploaded - the front is medium blue and the remainder is silver, with the water tank being clear plastic. It's a beautiful shade of blue.

If you are short on counter space in your kitchen and you want both a single serve coffeemaker and an espresso machine, this unit is something you may want to consider. The manufacturer-supplied pictures are deceiving and make the machine look larger, I was happy that it was much smaller in footprint when I un-boxed it.

Set-up was easy, especially if you are already familiar with machines such as the Keurig. I had no trouble inserting the screen in the bottom of the water tank. Give everything a good rinse, pour in some water up to the fill line - 40 ounces- (I prefer using filtered water), plug it in and follow the simple directions in either the manual or the quick start guide.

Once the machine has primed itself, you are ready to choose your brew. Pull the handle back all the way, drop in the pod with the top facing the front of the machine, snap the handle back down, and choose your size by pressing one of the 3 selections:

Top button: 1.5 ounces for espresso
Middle button: 3 ounces for a long espresso
Bottom button: 8 ounces for coffee, 9 ounces for tea

The next time you brew another cup, when you lift the handle backwards, that disposes of the previously brewed capsule into the storage bin behind the drip tray. This should be dumped into the trash as part of your daily maintenance, in addition to always making sure you have adequate water in the tank (you don't want to burn-up your pump).

The coffee and espresso flavors I've tried so far are very good. I'm not much of a tea drinker but I tried the Tropical Passion Tea as iced tea and it could turn me into a tea drinker; my friend says the Chai was very good, but there were some small tea particles in his cup. The vanilla and chocolate flavored powders I probably won't try as they add a considerable amount of calories when added to the coffee.

I'm concerned about availability of coffee capsules and the expense of having to order them from CBTL - I'm not on the West Coast, but if they were available at my local Wal-Mart that would be great, but I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Would an espresso snob love this? I'm not quite so sure. I'm not a snob but I still think my Breville Barista Express machine makes the best coffee drinks, and I like to grind my own beans. However, this machine is a close second as it costs considerably less than the Breville and it's convenient to use.

NOTE: This seems to need descaling much sooner than a normal coffeemaker. I use filtered water in this and I've only run through 19 pods, and I've already received my first descaling warning. I am using this descaler and it works great - takes about 45 minutes from start to finish - Urnex Dezcal Home Activated Descaler, For Home Coffee & Espresso Equipt., 4 - 1 oz Packets

Saeco Royal Coffee Bar Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver and Graphite Review

Saeco Royal Coffee Bar Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver and Graphite
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

This is a great coffee machine provided you can comprehend the instructions, which is why it did not get 5 stars.
The user instructions are, by the 800 help line guy I had to call to get mine going's own description, difficult to follow.

We just ran enough through it to get the automated message to run the de-calcification process on it. Again, the instruction manual is lacking. You must have patience.


Beyond that it is a great product and I do recommend it.

Whole bean grind or pre-ground coffee is unparalleled.

Rich flavor of fresh ground is unbeatable.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

Unlike the review below we've been lucky in that we've had no problems with our unit.

It's been exactly 3 years since we purchased our machine and we haven't looked back. The machine was bought as we were spending $40-50 a week at Starbucks. Now we use organic milk and beans and make our own latte's at home.

The machine is super easy to use. There are various settings for the grinding and dose of coffee. I just set the dose on max and change the grind depending on what beans I use. The machine gives you 3 sizes of coffee depending on what you want. The steam wand works well but can only be used after coffee dispensing is finished. It takes 15-25sec for the steam wand to really start.. steaming. The cappuchinore on my machine doesn't work but I only tried to use it after we had the machine for 2 years so I'm not bothered too much. I also have the direct water connection to my reverse osmosis system. So I haven't had to de-scale yet and might never need to.
Another useful item is the rinsing cycle where the machine runs hot water through itself for 10mins. At the end you get to see how much "dirt" was cleaned out. Quite satisfying :)
The machine also has some idiot proof features. One is when you put in pre-ground coffee but then press the coffee button instead of the pre-ground button first. The machine makes some funky noises but then dumps everything out. I'm not proud to say I've done this more than once....

Overall through it's the best $$$ I've ever spent and would highly recommend this machine. It might not be the cheapest (or most expensive!) but you get what you pay for!

p.s. the coffee is amazing!!!!!!!!!

Nespresso D120 Citiz Silver Chrome Automatic Espresso Machine with Aeroccino Milk Frother Review

Nespresso D120 Citiz Silver Chrome Automatic Espresso Machine with Aeroccino Milk Frother
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I've been with Nespresso for almost twenty years and the love relationship is still going strong. This new machine has a great look and the milk frother is a REALLY clever invention. It's so quiet you'll wonder if it's actually running. The only negative about this machine is the frother fuzziness with certain types of milk. You are going to have to figure out which local brand of milk works best for you. In my experience, organic vs. non-organic, or whole milk versus skim milk, has nothing to do with it. One whole milk in one brand will work great while in another it will not foam. But when you find the right milk, this machine makes the thickest foam known the mankind. Note that it's a different kind of foam than steamed foam. It's drier than steamed foam and perhaps a tad less creamier, but still wonderful. Also cleaning the frother is a little awkward since you can't submerge it. But easy enough to get the hang of it.

Product Description

Enjoy fine espressos with delicious flavor using Nespresso's Citiz automatic espresso machine. Designed for convenience and ultimate taste, the machine has a sleek and attractive silver chrome finish, and uses Nespresso's superior coffee capsules. These capsules are hermetically sealed in a protective aluminum casing, and provide the freshest possible coffee. The machine uses a 19 bar pressure pump, with an energy saving mode, to extract the best qualities and flavors from your coffee, creating the perfect brew. Once your espresso has finished brewing, the machine ejects the capsules into a container that holds up to ten used capsules at a time. Combined with the removable drip tray, custom volume control, and folding cup support, you simply can't beat this machine. Additionally, Nespresso's Aeroccino milk frother is included, which allows you to use steamed milk to make delicious cappuccinos, lattes, and more.
