Making coffee using such a device is very simple - the grains are poured into the hopper, then the type of drink and the degree of strength are selected. The machine will do everything necessary for cooking itself. Today we’ll talk about Krups coffee machines, customer reviews about this product, and also about the features of some models.
A few words from the story
The German company was established in 1846. Initially, she released a spring-loaded balance designed by Robert Krups at his uncle's forge. The brand quickly won the hearts of the inhabitants of the country. Coffee grinders began to be produced in 1956, and only then experts began to produce coffee makers, mixers and slicers.
In 1991, Krups launched a capsule system with Nestle. And already in 2010, a special Krups Dolce Gusto coffee machine was created, reviews of which, as well as other models, you will learn from our article. The company is constantly improving, using the latest technology in the manufacture of coffee machines, is doing everything possible to predict the wishes of its fans. Due to this, she is considered the leader in the industry of small household appliances and coffee machines.
Types of coffee machines manufactured by the company
Currently, the company is engaged in the production of the following types of coffee machines:
- automatic;
- pump action;
- Nescafe Dolce Gusto;
- Nespresso.
All of them have their own characteristics and many advantages.
Automatic and pump models
According to reviews of the Krups automatic coffee machine, such devices are similar to professional ones and have features:
- Power 1450 W, which can significantly reduce the time of preparation of coffee.
- Equipped with a thermal block that raises the temperature of the water in just 40 seconds to 92 degrees. In this case, water does not need to be contacted. A high heating rate helps to reduce the likelihood of scale formation. Such technology is available in the Nescafe Dolce Gusto, Nespresso and Espresso coffee makers.
- They have an optimal indicator of water and steam pressure of 15 bar.
- Preserve the taste and shades of the coffee drink due to the presence of a coffee grinder.
- Equipped with a display that allows you to set the necessary parameters.
- They are cleaned automatically, almost without user intervention. So, for example, in the EA8010PE coffee maker, after about 300 cycles of operation, the light starts to burn, which indicates the need for cleaning. To do this, pour water into the tank, clean the container intended for coffee, and press the button.
- Equipped with a blowing agent, which is needed for making latte and cappuccino.
- They have a special function of heating cups.
Also, automatic cappuccinators can be attached to automatic coffee makers, which will facilitate the cooking process. According to reviews of Krups coffee machines, this additional feature is very convenient.
What is the basis of the operation of automatic devices?
Coffee makers of this kind work as follows:
- First, the grains are ground using metal millstones in a coffee grinder.
- Ground coffee is rammed under the influence of pressure, which varies from 9 to 15 bar.
- Excess air is removed by the Tamping Easy Serving Espresso system, which helps preserve aromas.
- Coffee is treated with water and steam.
- For the preparation of latte or cappuccino, a blowing agent is used according to the instructions.
As for the pump-action coffee maker of this manufacturer, it works similarly. The only difference is that in such a device there is an injection of pressure using a special pump. In addition, there is no coffee grinder. The user can make a drink from ground coffee. Ready espresso, latte or cappuccino is no worse than drinks made in specialized coffee houses. But if you need a Krups grain coffee machine, reviews of which indicate that it itself grinds coffee beans, it is better to opt for the first option.
