I don't normally have milk in my coffee, but wanted this one so we have that option for guests etc. So far, apart from a setup problem, which we managed to fix, it looks good, and it's not that noisy.

Hey dude! Im looking at this product for my partner who works as a barista and this looks perfect for what she would need. I dont suppose theres a way to pre grind the beans, rather than needing to grind them as and when you want a coffee? I know you mention that grinding can be quite loud and we're sometimes making coffees at the time of morning or night where you might not want all that noise. This could be ideal if you can process the beans when you want rather than before each cup
@AverageScotConsumer

Hi, thanks for the q. There's not a function to pre grind the beans so I tried this... When you press the button to make the coffee & press it again it cancels it so I tried to see if you could cancel the cup after the beans have been ground which it did, if that makes sense. I pressed to make a cup again after 10 mins thinking that because the beans were ground the last time it might skip this stage, but unfortunately it ground them again. There is a function to use pre ground instant coffee which I didn't really cover in the video 😬 Next to the bean container there is a built in funnel with a plastic spoon where you can add instant coffee. This skips the griding stage altogether but obviously you won't have fresh bean to cup coffee which is the main attraction to this machine. To be honest though even after the beans have been ground, it still makes some noise when actually dispensing the coffee. Hope this long answer helps haha 👍

@@AverageScotConsumer Amazing, thank you for taking time to reply! I did a bit of digging and the ability to use instant is a nice feature that'll come in handy even if its just from time to time. I've actually pre-ordered one but had to keep it at a relatives house so she doesn't see it in the net week. Am i right in thinking that the bean to cup idea cuts out the need for a tamp and a knockbox? I think she's used to manual machines so hopefully she'll enjoy the change Also, what do beans taste like when theyve been ground twice? hahaha

According the instructions it say 3 flashing lights at the top means the machine has been switched on with the steam knob open, have you tried switching it on with it in the other position?..
@AverageScotConsumer
4 жыл бұрын
After looking further, in the instruction manual there's a section about using the machine for the very first time. You need to follow steps to prime the water system. You have to fill the water tank, place a container under the steam wand, then switch on at the main switch at back of machine, withing 30 seconds switch 'on' at the front & turn the steam knob clockwise and water will purge through the wand until it stops. 3 FLASHING LIGHTS indicate you should turn the knob clockwise to close and the machine then turns off automatically. It can then be turned back on and used as normal thereafter. This could be why you have these light if you've not performed this sequence as it must be completed before first use?... Hope it helps.

Strange about the milk spout not being able to be put on a angle like most of their other machines, I bet it's a design flaw so they couldn't do it with the design they went with, I have one of their smaller machines where you can move it on angles and up and down When you hear the Froth the milk do you do it all in 1 go, machine I have it's a bit odd as I wait for green light to say it's ready but then it does not heat it up as hot as it should so I have do to it few times and sometimes even make it all hotter when mixed with the coffee in the cup lol

Had mine for 5 years now it it's only just let me down. The knob for the steam control broke. I spare was easily obtained and only cost £2.50 + (p&p) and was just a push fit. I cannot rate this machine highly enough. Recently bought Nescafe Dolce Gusto a pod machine to try, don't bother. It taste horrible to me, I think the stuff that makes the milk in them gives it a taste and I have tried different styles. Flat white is the best so far but still tastes artifical.

@AverageScotConsumer
3 жыл бұрын
According to the instructions you can make it more creamy by turning the Grinding Adjustment Knob in the bean compartment. Turn it ONE click anti-clockwise towards '1' then see if it's made a difference after a FEW of cups. If it still needs to be more creamy then repeat the steps but don't adjust more than one click at a time.
