Miele : CVA4075SS 24" Plumbed Whole Bean/Ground Built-In Coffee System Review

Miele : CVA4075SS 24
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

Had this coffee maker installed with my home remodel nearly seven years ago now. MORE than paid for itself MANY TIMES over (hey, nearly $5 a pop of your favorite brew adds up FAST).

Easy to care for. Only one problem since the installation was fixed with a quick call to VERY friendly and helpful Miele customer service. They walked me through fixing the problem (less than 15 minutes) and sent me a part replacement kit just in case the part needed replacing (it didn't, but I kept it just in case).

DURABLE is what surprised me; I use it at least 4-7 times daily more on the weekends without a hitch. (How many things do you use that often in a day, every day for seven years without a screw up?) It will not take "flavored" coffees (beans that have been coated in flavoring) as that will gum up the works, but then again who really wants gunk coated beans, anyway?

Of all the "toys" I bought for my new kitchen; this has been the most impressive.

Braun Tassimo TA1200 Single-Serve Hot-Beverage System Review

Braun Tassimo TA1200 Single-Serve Hot-Beverage System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I have had my Tassimo for just over a month now (received it 10/4/05) and I am in love with it!!! I have all the different T-Discs now since I can get them online from many places. I got my last order of T-Discs from Gevalia online, including the European varieties. I can have Tea, Hot Chocolate as good as any I have ever had, Cappuccinos, Lattes, Espresso, Crema Coffee (better than the "fake crema" on the senseo), Bold coffee, mild coffee. Since my wife drinks tea and I drink coffee and coffee drinks, and our nieces love hot chocolate when they visit, the Tassimo is perfect.

Contrary to what the "uninformed" may say, this machine is very, very clean. There is a cleaning disc that needs to be run twice when you first get the machine, and then monthly. You do not have to run the cleaning disc after every Cappuccino and Latte. Also, almost all of the removeable parts are machine washable!!!

The beverage selection is still limited (no flavored coffees), but I have purchased some flavored syrups and can now make flavored Cappuccinos and lattes that rival any coffee shop for a fraction of the cost!!! This is REAL, high quality coffee too, unlike the flavia which uses some powdered yuk mixed with water. Right now they have Gevalia Coffee (regular, decaf, espresso,crema,)and Tea, Twinings Tea, Suchard Hot Chocolate, Kenco coffee, Carte Noir Coffee (Regular, Espresso, Crema). The Cappuccino and Latte are packed with Gevalia espresso, but from what I have read, it sounds like they will be releasing an entire line of Maxwell House Cafe collection varieties sometime in November. I am not sure about Maxwell house, but I really like the Gevalia products!!!

The T-Discs have premium ground coffee, Tea, liquid Suchard chocolate in them. The Tassimo machine reads a bar code that tell it how long to brew, the correct temperature and bar, and the machine does the rest.

There are a few things to get used to, like the steam and water runoff that is caught by the drip tray after every brew....and the Tassimo is louder than a regular drip machine, but not nearly as loud as a foamer on an espresso machine. The water container even has a filter, so that there is no transfer of some of the off flavors that tap water can give, since after all, coffee is 99% water.

The Cappuccinos and Lattes use real milk (ultra pasteurized and shelf stable), which make an exceptionally flavorful finished product.

I am confident that since this is made and backed by Kraft and Braun, that the coffee selections are going to increase significantly in the near future to offer more varieties and flavors, even though the selection currently available now is somewhat limited, it is of a very high quality.

Bottom line, this is an incredibly versatile, dependable machine that I love and will be using for a very long time. I love it so much that I have ordered several more machines to give as Christmas gifts. There is nothing else on the market that can do what this machine does - so many different beverages - such high quality - so fast and easy. Do yourself a favor and get a Tassimo!!

Capresso 153.04 C3000 Automatic Coffee and Espresso Center, with Pump-Auto Cappuccino System Review

Capresso 153.04 C3000 Automatic Coffee and Espresso Center, with Pump-Auto Cappuccino System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

We have owned several home espresso machines and this is by far the best one ever. The ability to froth milk automatically just before or just after making coffee or espresso is unique. In most other units it's necessary to purge the water system before steaming milk and then purging it again to regain brewing temperature. In this unit you just press the button and frothed milk foams out into your cup, and is pre-programmed to stop at the right moment. The milk unit can be removed and stored in a refrigerator and the parts are easy to clean. It even tells you when to run a cleaning or decalcifying session. Programable in English and several European languages. It's also easy to make hot cocoa by frothing chocolate milk. Electronic controls dose out the amount of coffee or espresso from a short shot of espresso (single or doppio) to a mug of coffee. It turns itself on and off and pre-measures the coffee you grind and the strength of your coffee. This is an electronic wizard that does lots more than brew a great cup of coffee. This is an ideal machine for an office or a household with a big entertainment kitchen.

Keurig B30 Mini Personal Single-Serve Brewing System, White Review

Keurig B30 Mini Personal Single-Serve Brewing System, White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I previously purchased a B40 for my office. The convenience and selection of coffees immediately made it a favorite among co-workers and myself. Of course this meant that I wanted one for home. One problem with the B40 is the noise. Not bad for an office environment but unforgivable first thing in the morning at home. When the B30 was announced and promised to be quieter, that was just what the doctor ordered. This thing is VERY quiet in comparison. I only drink one cup in the morning prior to going to work so the lack of a reservoir is not an issue. If you want multiple cups 30 seconds apart this is not the machine for you. If you don't mind the extra step of dumping a cup of water in a hole and waiting 2 1/2 minutes after you press the brew button (if you own the B40 you were already doing this when you turned the power on) then this machine is great. Oh, and the small footprint means you can be very flexible in where you decide to put it. No major concessions in the countertop usage arena. Bottom line, quiet convenience in a small package makes this a winner.

Keurig Single Serve Coffee and Tea Brewing System Review

Keurig Single Serve Coffee and Tea Brewing System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I purchased this system from Costco for Christmas. On New Years day it stopped working. I unplugged the unit and after a couple of hours, it started working again. After about 5 more days, it did the same thing. Displaying "Not Ready" and kept shutting down. I emailed Keurig's customer service dept. but did not get a reply. I called their 866 number and waited on hold for about half an hour only to be told that they would not allow me to wait on hold any longer, so I had to wait 3 days for them to call me back. The technician told me to use a paper clip and make sure the top and bottom spouts were clear and we ran through several hot water cycles on different cup settings.

I don't know if this 'fixed' the problem because at that point it had been working again. The tech. said that the hot cocoa cups could clog the spouts (although I do run a hot water cycle after each hot cocoa cup is 'brewed'). She also said there may be a problem with the separate filter that allows me to use my own coffee as opposed to their K-Cups. After her call, I stopped using the hot cocoa and the separate filter and so far have not had any problems. Hopefully it was a clogged spout and not a faulty pump or something like that.

When the machine works, it's wonderful. Quick and easy and extremely convenient. Every family member can brew what ever kind of coffee they want and there's no wasted coffee pots. There's enough of a variety of K-Cups for my family. We are very happy with it and hope it doesn't keep breaking down. If you remove the bottom tray, a travel mug fits easily under the drip spout. The blue light looks nice in a dark kitchen too :) The on / off timer is convenient and saves some energy when the unit is not in use for hours at a time. Even from the off position, it doesn't take very long for the machine to be in "Ready" mode.

Overall, I am happy with the machine. If it didn't break down, I'd have given it 5 stars.

I tried to leave an honest review (like this one) on Keurig's site, but for some reason, they have not published it. They only seem to post positive reviews on their site.

De'Longhi EN720.M Automatic Cappuccino, Latte and Espresso Machine with Capsule System Review

De'Longhi EN720.M Automatic Cappuccino, Latte and Espresso Machine with Capsule System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

We purchased this machine primarily to make cappuccinos and lattes. It is easy to use and consistently makes excellent drinks. We use bottled water for all of our coffee so we have not had to descale the maker. However, the machine comes with a water-hardness tester and the machine can be adjusted based upon water hardness. We did not have to use the tester or make any adjustments.

Having to order the coffee pods directly from Nespresso may be a problem for some users. We order all my coffee online so we do not find ordering the pods from Nespresso to be particularly inconvenient. Also, we like knowing that the pods are not sitting on the shelf of a retailer for months.

If you are looking for a machine to make espressos, cappuccinos and lattes, you will love this machine. We have not been disappointed at all with this machine and would buy it again.

At the time of this review, there is only one other review of the Nespresso Lattessimo Premium. I do not necessarily disagree with some of the points that reviewer is making. For the use he or she is describing, there are better choices (Kruig makes an excellent single cup coffee maker). In using another espresso machine, we found that low fat milk makes better foam. We also prefer using 0% or 2% milk, so that is not an issue for us.

Miele CVA4066SS 24 Built-in Whole Coffee Bean System with Plumbed-In Water Connection Review

Miele CVA4066SS 24 Built-in Whole Coffee Bean System with Plumbed-In Water Connection
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

the product ordered took a while to arrive, longer than expected. It arrived the day I left town . the delivery company supplier used was professional on the surface with email shipment notices and such but the delivery appointment took some time to schedule. They also delivered in afternoon instead of morning - driver could not handle machine alone, i had to help unload and put in my car to get to the door (long drivewaY) , they would not deliver to door.

Machine installed one week ago - instructions were a little vague in how to start up, called technical service who helped to walk me through setup. After descaling machine (did not say i had to do that, about 10 minutes) proceeded to coffee setup/hot water.

At first a couple drops of water came out. Coffee grounds were dispensed but no coffee. Tried 3 times. Nothing. Then tried hot water, Nothing - Remove machine from cabinet and found that the machine had internal leak and was leaking water internally all over the floor, kitchen flooded. Turned machine off and Miehle representative called for a service tech to come repair. Glad they have company employees instead of service agents which was a big plus. their local dispatch called on Monday (installation occurred on a Saturday) and setup appt for Wednesday .

Tech arrived promptly, found a hose had disconnected internally during the first descaling process (miehle rep had said that was probably the problem) and sure enough he was right. I guess it happened before. Tech was very professional, wore booties over his shoes into house which was appreciated! he had all the proper equipment to service and find the loose hose.

He proceeded also to help setup machine for all specifics like coffee amounts, grind type, lighting, timer and so on. He was GREAT!
Also he told me about a 5 year service plan fully covers everything $249.00 which I think is a good investment of for a complex machine like this. I plan to use it. Had DACOR machine previous to this one and it was nothing but headaches. It looked good, built out of all metal but went through 3 under warranty and after warranty continuos service calls . That machine should be delegated to junk pile out of the box!
Miehle was much more plastic inside, not as attractive due to black plastic and a somewhat fake stainless steel look but after having it work for one day seems to offer all the features i need, the automatic milk cleaning / dispenser for capuccino is much easier to use and would like to offer an update in a month to let you know further details

Cuisinart SS-780PC Single Serve Brewing System, Includes 54 K-Cups & 6 water filters
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I cannot believe how good this product is in combination with Keurig's K-cup system. We've owned the Bosch Tassimo and loved that for the last year until we couldn't get the descale light to go away, plus the selection was quite limited to Starbucks and Gevalia. Both good brews (not great), but in comparison to the variety of the K-cup system they look and taste paltry in comparison. Caribou Coffee is a mirror image (tastewise) of what you buy in stores and the Donut Shop blend from the Coffee People is incredible as well. For a bigger kick Emeril's Bold and Easy is fantastic, or you can brew your own blend of whatever you like in the reusable cup which Cuisinart nailed. Coarse ground coffees fresh from Dunkin Donuts come out very weak and are not advisable, but their Turbo Hot blend sold in grocery stores brews FANTASTIC as it has a finer grind. I think you can re-grind coarse coffee in a burr grinder to get a deeper brew.

Again, if you love coffee and you love the idea of the single brew system then this Cuisinart is for you. It's a solid machine that brews a very impressive cup of joe from a variety of vendors.

Keurig Platinum Gourmet Single Cup Coffee & Tea Brewing System 60 K-Cups & My K-Cup Reusable Filter Review

Keurig Platinum Gourmet Single Cup Coffee & Tea Brewing System 60 K-Cups & My K-Cup Reusable Filter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I recently asked for a cup of joe at a friend's house and they showed me their Keurig B60. They let me pick my own flavor and showed me how easy it was to make a cup of coffee with it. I was amazed at how fast this gourmet coffee was ready and how little there was to do for clean up. When I got home I researched it.

The only differences between the B60 and B66 is the color of the machine and quantity of sample K-Cups. The B60 is almost all black with a chrome handle while this B66 has a black body, silver top and chrome handle. The B60 gives you the standard 18 pack K-Cup sample, while the B66 gives you an additional 4 18-packs of samples AND a reusable "My K-Cup". The My K-Cup is a reusable filter you can put your own coffee in if you really want to (kind of defeats the purpose).

After using both the B60 and B66 I can tell you they both work EXACTLY the same. Any review you see for B60 has the same features, benefits, and shortfalls as the B66.

I'm the only coffee drinker in my house so it became a big pain to measure out beans, grind them, empty them from the grinder into the coffee maker, add the water, then wait for the coffee. Plus when you're done you have to discard the used filter / grounds and any left over coffee and clean the carafe and maybe the drip mechanism as well.

THE KEURIG IS ALMOST 100% MAINTENANCE / CLEANING FREE. It has a 48 oz water reservoir so you don't need to refill daily. The cleanup is just taking the used K-Cup and throwing it out. There's no grinding of beans or cleaning necessary and I don't have to spend 1/2 an hour to make 2 cups of coffee.

Some other nice benefits are that it also makes tea, hot cocoa and plain ole hot water (for Ramen or other uses). It also has a cool blue LED and blue lit water tank. The auto-on and off features help you save time and money. The 90 K-Cups the B66 gives you should last a long time and help you decide which blend of coffee(s) you prefer most. The water reservoir is also dishwasher safe.

The cons are few and far between. It is noisy when it starts and finishes making a cup of coffee. The water intake makes a loud vibrating noise when it pumps water in or out of the internal reservoir. This doesn't bother me, my wife, or my infant son. The strength of the 9.25 oz versus the 5.25 ounce cup is diminished. It's just the amount of water being used on the same amount of grounds. So if you want a regular 9.25 oz coffee you should probably use a strong K-Cup. Refill K-Cups are somewhat expensive, but it's WAY less then a gourmet coffee shop. If you look around and use coupons it's a great way to save.

I've had the coffee maker for 3 days now and I couldn't be prouder of my purchase. I look forward to my daily coffee finally!

One last note, if you're going through a carafe or more of coffee a day, you may want to think about whether or not it's a cost savings or worth the time savings for you. But for me, this is the best product I've come across in a while.
