Pros and cons

According to our Fully automatic espresso machine expert

The steam wand automatically froths milk for a cappuccino or latte macchiato.
Thanks to its small size, it takes up less space on your countertop than other fully automatic coffee machines.
With the hot water function, you can preheat a cup or make a cup of tea.
A coffee machine with a plastic casing isn't as durable as one with a stainless steel casing.

Description

With the SMEG BCC12BLMEU Black, you can make milk specialties and tap hot water for a cup of tea in no time. With a press of the intuitive touch buttons, the machine can make a hot beverage like an espresso, double espresso, or Americano. With the automatic steam wand, you can froth milk for a cappuccino or latte macchiato. You only have to hold the pitcher of milk under the steam wand. The coffee outlet is adjustable, so you can place both small and large cups under the machine. Because the coffee machine has a compact size, it doesn't take up a lot of space on the counter. And with its retro 50s appearance, the glossy profiles, and the brushed aluminum front panel, it's a true eye-catcher in the kitchen.

Compact, user-friendly and silent fully automatic machine

Compact in size
Easy to use with 5 buttons
The machine makes little noise so you don't wake anyone
Does not indicate when the coffee beans and water are running low

Let me start by saying that I am very enthusiastic about this SMEG fully automatic espresso machine. First of all, it takes up little space on my counter and is incredibly user-friendly. I explain it in detail.

Compact in size with a width of 18 centimeters With a width of 18 centimeters, the coffee maker fits anywhere in my kitchen. Not only does the machine have a nice size, but the design is also very beautiful. The machine consists of one whole and by that I mean that the bean grinder and the water reservoir are incorporated in the device. This is super handy when moving the machine, but it makes it less easy to see whether you need to top up the coffee beans or water. The coffee maker then makes a cup of coffee with all the water and coffee beans that are still in it and only gives a signal when the entire water reservoir is empty. However, this should not spoil the fun.

Easy in use The coffee maker only has 5 buttons. This makes it easy to use. I choose between 6 coffee specialties, from an espresso to a large lungo. In addition, there are functions for frothing milk and hot water for a cup of tea. You switch between 2 menus via the button at the front. One menu consists of all kinds of espressos and hot water. The other menu consists of larger coffees and a milk frothing function. The coffee spout is adjustable so it fits both a small espresso cup and a large mug. As soon as the machine starts making coffee, a light lights up, so you can see the coffee coming out of the machine and you know when the coffee is ready.

Making coffee without waking up my roommate If I want to make a cup of coffee in the morning, I don't wake up the whole house as soon as the beans are grinding. The coffee maker is relatively quiet for a fully automatic machine.

Coffee and milk quality The machine makes good quality coffee, this is largely due to the coffee beans you put in it. But anything but a weak cup of coffee comes out. The coffee tastes very good. In addition to black coffees, I make a cappuccino from a double espresso by frothing milk with the steam nozzle.

Review is 7,6 out of 10.

Nice appearance but clumsy and unreliable to use.

brew group must be cleaned often

i have been using it since July 22 and am slowly getting a bit fed up with it. At first I was very happy with the relatively quiet grinding and brewing of coffee. In use it becomes less quiet and you regularly get malfunctions, especially the brewing group must be cleaned often. Sometimes you find moldy coffee sludge near the brew group. Don't understand why because I clean everything regularly.

Beautiful but very clumsy

Looks gorgeous
Cleaning takes a really long time

If you want to drink a quick cup of coffee, you should not buy this device. There is always something that is empty or just full. Descale? Just take half an hour for it. Back to dolce gusto for me..
