According to our Fully automatic espresso machine expert
The stainless steel Siemens EQ.6 Plus S700 TE657313RW offers various coffee specialties, such as cortado, flat white, and an americano. This means you can start your day with a double espresso and enjoy a creamy latte macchiato on the couch in the evening. Save coffee recipes for yourself and 3 other family members by setting the amount and strength. Do you have visitors? You can make 2 cappuccinos or espressos at the same time. This certainly speeds things up. The integrated Brita water filter keeps the coffee machine free of limescale. This means the machine will last longer, but also guarantees continued coffee quality. The integrated lights give this espresso machine a bit of extra luxury than other comparable Siemens machines.
Tip: to make a cappuccino you can either put the milk tube in a carton of milk or buy a separate milk reservoir.Milk frothing method | Milk tube | |

We have had all kinds of coffee machines at home; from slow filter coffee to the cup with espresso. We have been dreaming of a real coffee machine in all coffee shops for years, last month we gave it to us as a present and it is great!
In the morning the machine starts up in a few seconds, glass underneath and you get a professional barista who immediately makes 2 delicious latte macchiatos while you watch. What a treat every day, the purchase is a bit higher, but those boxes with 10 cups are a fortune every month. I'm done, we should have done this years ago. We looked at other brands, but this one is a nice size, works very well and cleans itself.

When unpacking the S700, the first thing you notice is the outside of the coffee machine. The front and top of the machine is made of brushed stainless steel, while the side is made of light gray plastic, which gives it a nice appearance. In terms of size, the device is not that bad (I expected it to be bigger) and that saves on the countertop. You will also see LED lighting at the outlet for extra lighting during brewing. This additionally illuminates the cover plate (and the cup). You will also find the milk frother there. This is integrated in the distributor. It closes well and therefore makes good quality milk foam (if you have the right milk for that). Furthermore, the beautiful control panel with the integrated LCD display with beautiful graphics stands out. Here you can see which coffee you have chosen and you can see the progress of the brewing. On the outside there is an easily removable water tank with a volume of 1.7 liters. A Brita water filter must be placed in this before use for even better coffee results. The drip tray that can be found at the front can easily be pushed towards you and is easy to empty. The drip tray also contains a separately removable container for the coffee grounds. You can also empty this in a jiffy. The device can make a reasonable number of cups before you have to empty both containers. It is, however, recommended for hygiene reasons to do this every day, although this is not necessarily necessary. The brew group and the milk foam system are easy to remove and just as easy to clean. The brew group may only be cleaned with water and not in the dishwasher. If you do this about 1 to 2 times a week, a good coffee taste is guaranteed. The milk frother has a Milk Clean function to flush the hose with clean water so that everything is cleaned immediately. That saves manual cleaning. The device itself indicates when something needs to be emptied or cleaned. But it is better to avoid this for reasons of hygiene and maintaining a good coffee taste. The display also shows the message that the water tray needs to be refilled or the drip tray needs to be emptied. Any other error or malfunction messages can also be read here. Operation is easy by touching the touch keys. The keys are clear and they respond well to touch even with cold or wet hands. Furthermore, the sound of the S700 is not too bad for me. Compared to other devices, it is significantly quieter. When you need to descale the S700, it will indicate itself. The descaling process takes about 20 minutes. The machine determines this itself based on the water hardness that you have to set in the menu before using it for the first time. A test strip is included with which you can test your tap water to determine the hardness. There are special descaling tablets from Siemens that you can use for this. Because we have a water softener, we do not have to do this, which in turn benefits the life of the device. Special cleaning tablets are also available for cleaning. When the device is due for a cleaning, it will indicate itself. The special Calc 'n Clean function is used for descaling and cleaning. When you do this, you will be an hour further before you can use the device again. The S700 can brew 1 or 2 cups at a time. You can set the grinding degree depending on the beans you have. The grinding system is made of ceramic material so that it does not get too hot and the good taste of the bean is preserved. You can also choose between espresso, espresso macchiato, cappuccino, latte macchiato, latte, milk foam and hot water. You can choose the coffee in the variations. For example, you can choose a coffee drawer for filter coffee. He also has the option of very mild, mild, normal, strong, very strong. So something for everyone. You can save your choice in the favorites so that you can set your own favorite at the touch of a button. The temperature of the water can also be adjusted. I have it on hot as standard and always preheat the cups so that the coffee stays hot for a little longer. By the way, I am impressed by the temperature of the coffee. You have to be careful not to burn your mouth with a cup of regular coffee that is not preheated. That is already less if you choose an option that uses milk. But if you preheat your cup, that problem is also solved and you have a nice warm cappuccino or latte. When using the right milk, the foam is firm. The machine can be set to your own liking due to the various options that are possible. The size of your cup can also be set to small, medium or large so that you can make more or less coffee. The coffee-milk ratio can also be set if you want more or less milk in your coffee. It has an automatic switch-off so that it always switches off and no unnecessary energy is consumed. It even has a frost protection position in case you have it somewhere cold. All in all, it is a great device that has many options, can make good coffee and is certainly worth its money.

I have recently become the proud owner of the Siemens EQ 6 plus s700. What a very beautiful device. Both to see and to use. The device is more compact than you would expect. Fits easily on the counter. Because the 230V connection cord can be tucked away in the bottom plate of the machine, you don't have such a large curl with cord behind it. I find that very convenient and hygienic. The setting options are endless and at the same time very easy to enter. The beautiful and very clear display with large icons and clear inscriptions makes operation child's play. Very intuitive. You do not need the user manual. Everything is self-evident. At least if you are able to fill the water bowl and get the beans in….. (smiley). But the average consumer does. What is immediately noticeable is that the machine is very quiet. The grinding of the beans is a soft buzz instead of a loud crack. The pump is also barely audible. You can make 12 pre-programmed drinks choices! What is very nice is that you can make 2 milk products at the same time (cap and latte, etc.). Very handy when there are two of you. The coffee taste is very good. The milk foam (via a tube that can go directly into a milk carton) is firm and creamy. The average Barista has to work very hard to get it that way. By the way, I bought the matching Siemens milk container myself. This is a kind of compact thermos flask that looks very nice and is especially intended for cold milk. Handy to use and easy to store in the fridge. The coffee strength and size can be adjusted per brew if you wish. The ratio of the milk and the amount of coffee is also adjustable. After a few days you'll be out of that and you can program 4 favorites. What you have to pay attention to is that at Cappuccino's you preheat the cups anyway. I always do, even with coffee. This is because with milk products the final temperature is always a bit lower due to the use of cold milk (which foams better). So don't leave milk drinks for too long. What I do find odd is that with milk products the time between frothing milk and the phase of filling with coffee is quite long. The coffee is really brewed I'll just say. Anyway, the end result is more than fine. Another big advantage is that the machine has a very good rinse and cleaning program. Before the machine is ready for operation (after about 40 seconds) it has thrown a good shot of water through it so that everything is up to temperature and spotless. The machine also has a special milk foam cleaning program that works very well. This is done by means of hot water and a burst of steam as a final valve. The disadvantage of all this is that the water tank quickly empties (which is not too big at 1.7 liters). I don't mind, I'd rather have a good clean and top up with water than weird tastes. In short: I am very satisfied with this machine. The device has a very luxurious appearance due to the design with the display, the stainless steel and the LED lighting on the outlet section (looks very nice in the evening). It makes near-perfect drinks in no time at all. Also has some minor drawbacks (slightly small water tank, some patience with milk drinks, preheating cups with milk products) but scores a very good pass. For me it's top notch! Four and a half stars out of five.
