Krups Intuition Experience EA877D

Finally a fully automatic Espresso machine that looks small, powerful and sleek in the kitchen! The LED induction strip, the lighting in the cup when a product is being prepared. Beautiful! Installation of the Krups espresso machine. From the moment of start-up, the machine indicates in Jip & Janneke language exactly what action you need to take to use it correctly. The touch panel. The display looks very sleek. The predecessors of the Krups generation were a button variant. By adjusting the menu yourself, you can swipe through the recipes, or show 6 recipes on the display per screen/tab. The icons and name are clear and can also be set in various languages. Multiple names can be set in the profiles function, and everyone can personalize their own drink with their own lighting colour. The first cup of coffee tasted different... And POSITIVE! Serious! The machine manages to achieve a decent degree of fineness. With some coffee machines, the grinding degree remains quite coarse. The coffee is then inhibited by means of "Flow restrictors". That is not the case with the krups. The strangles cakes are incredibly beautiful, round and dry, in the dregs container. The drip tray gives the signal to empty in time and is therefore not overflowing so that emptying becomes a messy feast. The taste is fuller and more intense! (Depends on which bean/brand) Krups has been using this technique of making coffee in their machines for a while, now they have put the combination of a nice little machine with display on the market beautifully. The same machine has also been put on the market by WMF, with a WMF price tag. Making iced coffee Frappé! How genius, finally also with ease for at home. That's going to be a great summer! The machine makes 2x coffee and then takes the cold milk at the bottom of the glass to place on top as a foam head. Some drawbacks. There is no manual coffee insert ( Difficult for Decaf friends ) To make Cappuccino, the machine takes a while. (but waiting will be rewarded) Milk system must be really clean! (if some dirt or blockage from the supply hose is not clean enough, the milk will not froth)

The Krups Experience + is easy to install, not too big and has a nice sleek design. Replenishing coffee beans and filling the water reservoir is very easy and self-explanatory. You can set the coffee to your liking and you can easily add your favorite cups of coffee to your personal profile. You can choose a color per profile and if you then make your coffee from your own profile, the coffee machine will also show your own chosen color. Not the option you need to have, but it's nice that you can. You can quickly and easily set the strength of the coffee beans and the number of milliliters of water per cup using the touchscreen. This allows you to easily vary the strength of your coffee. We had a built-in coffee machine where we couldn't get the coffee stronger, well with this machine that's no problem! Switching strength works really well and you immediately taste the difference. Emptying the water reservoir and the coffee residues is also very easy, it is also shown on the touchscreen if you can't figure it out. Milk specialities: There is a milk container with the machine and attachment hoses to connect the milk container. Not difficult to connect, but I now come to my only drawback that I have been able to discover with this machine. If you don't drink milk specialty coffees very often like I do, you use small amounts of milk (for example 200 ml). The tube then only reaches the bottom of the reservoir if you place the milk reservoir on the stand where you also put your coffee cup. If I put the milk reservoir next to the coffee machine (which seems more logical to me) then the tube does not reach the bottom. Do you use a lot of milk? Then this is not a problem because then the hose does not have to reach the bottom. Little milk like me? Then you cannot place the reservoir next to the machine. Not a big problem in itself, but the grinding of the coffee beans causes the machine to vibrate a bit and this could cause the milk reservoir to vibrate off the stand, I'm holding it now just to be sure. Furthermore, very pleased with this device and we are very happy with it. Quickly make your favorite coffee via your profile and you can vary really well with flavors. The beans come out very well with this machine.

This espresso machine from Krups can be described in one word, namely "great". It is a beautiful device to see and super user-friendly. The machine clearly indicates what needs to be done and the varying strengths and sizes of the coffee types are good and easy to set. If you have a favorite type of coffee at a certain strength, you can even easily set this in the device, even with your own color!

The use and cleaning of the device is also very easy, it is easy to clean and it also indicates this well. A small disadvantage is the water tank at the back, which is not always easy to reach. An advantage is that the tank is 3 liters, so you don't have to refill it very often.

I can only report that it is a super machine with more than enough types of coffee. There is a delicious coffee for every moment of the day! Even the iced coffees are highly recommended! Each type of coffee is clearly explained in steps how to make it.

I do know that I am very happy with the device, a very nice look, nice and quiet and nice and fast!
