Advantages: You need never pop out for a 'cap' again Disadvantages: Cleaning the milk steamer nozzle
As a bit of a gadget junky this was one of the best Christmas presents I could get! Forget Champagne Cocktails with breakfast this year, we had caps and expresso.
The machines is all pretty much assembled when you unpack it, and the instructions are concise and simple, although I must admit that it did take two adults and several attempts to make the first cup of cappuccino! The filter coffee maker is a breeze for those who are used to making filter ... ...water in the top, coffee in the (permanent) filter and press go, for great filter coffee.
Expresso does require that you read the instructions and even using medium and not strong coffee grounds you get a cup of pure wake up juice!
Now we get to cappuccino, this took two of us several attempts to get a hot, frothy, coffee cups of heaven - Starbucks eat your heart out; I have my own cappuccino maker and won’t be paying extortionate prices ...
