This Siemens EQ6 plus is the successor to our Siemens EQ6 that we have owned for 3 years. So we have already had the privilege of serving coffee with the EQ 6 series from Siemens. Actually, our opinion has also remained unchanged: It is and remains a great device! The EQ6 plus is quieter than the EQ6, has a different (quieter) grinder, a slightly modified brew group and has more programs and drink choices. Compared to its predecessor, it can make 2 milk drinks at the same time, you can set user profiles and you have a much larger range of milk drinks available! In addition, it is just a little nicer finished.
I would recommend a water filter from Brita, we are careful with this machine and this will certainly improve the lifespan (less lime).
Whether you like a nice latte macchiato or a strong espresso, he can do it all. And important: without annoying milk jugs where the milk will eventually cake and hygiene is compromised. In addition, you do not have to move the glass to prepare a milk drink, simply place the glass and at the touch of a button it prepares a delicious coffee drink with a thick, firm milk foam layer. Tip for birthdays, for which we have been known for years in the circle of family and friends: A pump of caramel syrup in the glass, then prepare the latte macchiato and finish with a large dollop of whipped cream and caramel fudge cubes! Guaranteed success! Then the espresso, which I am a big fan of. Set the grinder to a finer setting (note: only do this while the grinder is running, never adjust a stationary grinder to prevent damage). Choose a tasty coffee bean, my preference being the freshly roasted beans from brandzaak.nl. No more frozen beans for us where highly paid actors for two words "What else" are paid.
Cleaning is also a big plus, the milk&clean cleaning system is automatically activated when a milk drink has been prepared and the machine is switched off. It rinses first with hot water and finishes the cleaning with steam, killing all bacteria. Very safe with milk. It is best to rinse the brew group once a week (do not use soap) with lukewarm water. The only downside I can think of is that sometimes some coffee grounds remain on the inside, behind the brew group. So get a cloth over this too! But this is all very user-friendly!

Very nice device with more than enough possibilities. You can make any coffee you can think of. The device is extremely user-friendly and looks stylish. The touchscreen provides a luxurious look. The possibility to make 2 drinks at the same time is also very nice. Another positive point is that cleaning the milk tube is very easy! In addition, the device itself is very easy to clean. Personally, I prefer the s500 (instead of the s700) because of the use of plastic material behind the coffee outlet. The plastic is very easy to clean. The s700 has a (more) luxurious look due to the stainless steel used, but that means that you have to polish it more often. In addition to the stainless steel, the s500 lacks the option to use 4 preferred settings. For us, the 2 preference settings of the s500 are more than sufficient. As for the price; this is relatively high, but you also get a lot in return. Price-wise in my opinion a real must.
I sometimes find the temperature of the milk a small disadvantage when using cold milk (directly from the fridge). Because you use cold milk, the machine does not get the milk/milk froth as hot as I would like. So you have to drink the cappucino or latté quickly!
