As a passionate coffee lover, I was looking for an espresso machine that would both deliver great coffee and look stylish in my kitchen. The KRUPS Precision Piston Machine XP801T turned out to be an excellent choice that exceeded my expectations. What immediately stands out is the beautiful design: a mix of retro charm with modern elements, finished in brushed stainless steel and black accents. It looks great on my countertop and immediately gives off a professional look. In terms of coffee performance, this machine is impressive. Thanks to the built-in conical burr grinder with no less than 30 grind settings, you can really fine-tune the grind to your taste. There are three preset coffee recipes (espresso, lungo and americano), but you can also adjust the pre-infusion yourself, allowing you to fine-tune the extraction completely to your liking. The Thermoblock system ensures that the machine heats up quickly and maintains a constant temperature, which is essential for a full-bodied, aromatic espresso. The operation is surprisingly intuitive. Easy-to-use rotary knobs allow you to easily set the grind and choose your coffee. The 58mm portafilter is professional-sized and works with different filters, which is nice for those who like to experiment with different brewing methods. Although the machine does not have an automatic milk frother, the manual steam wand is powerful enough to make deliciously velvety milk foam for cappuccinos and lattes. It also gives you the chance to improve your barista skills and play with latte art. What I also like is the ease of maintenance. The machine is robustly built and easy to keep clean with cleaning tablets and an automatic descaling program. This keeps it in top condition for a long time. Some users call the finish a little less 'premium' than with other brands, but I think it is a beautiful, solid device that does what it is supposed to do. In short: this Krups machine combines beautiful coffee, smart functions and a sleek design in a way that makes both novice and experienced coffee drinkers happy. Highly recommended for anyone who wants that extra step in their coffee experience.

The KRUPS Precision XP801T is a beautiful semi-automatic espresso machine that stands out for its stylish design, precise settings and user-friendliness. The robust design and high-quality finish – from housing to accessories such as the tamper – radiate quality. This machine not only looks great on the counter, but also feels solid in use. What immediately stands out is the adjustable grinding degree, which is fine enough to feel professional even for real espresso lovers. The settings are easy to adjust, allowing you to quickly switch between different types of coffee or beans without complicated actions. This makes the XP801T particularly accessible, even for users who do not have much experience with piston machines. The strength of this machine lies in the multitude of semi-automatic functions, where you as a user retain a lot of control over the brewing process. From the amount of water to the flow time – everything can be adjusted to your personal preference. This allows you to experiment with taste and extraction until you have found your perfect cup of coffee. And that cup tastes – let's be honest – simply very good. The coffee produced by this machine is full, strong and aromatic, with a beautiful crema layer. The accessories are a nice addition. The tamper is solid and stylishly designed, and contributes to a professional experience when preparing your espresso. The steam pipe also works properly and makes frothing milk easy, so that you can also make cappuccinos and lattes like you would order from the barista around the corner. In short, the KRUPS XP801T is an excellent choice for those looking for a piston machine with many setting options, a sleek design and a great taste experience. Suitable for both the novice and the more advanced home barista.

As a coffee lover, I have wanted a real espresso machine at home for a while. The Krups Precision piston machine is exactly what I was looking for. I read up on it thoroughly beforehand and followed the Krups online training – which is highly recommended to get to know all the options of the machine. Making espresso took some practice, but that is part of it. My third espresso was surprisingly good: rich in taste and with a nice crema. What I like is that you can adjust a lot yourself: from the grind and temperature to the pre-infusion. This allows you to experiment, and that really makes a difference in the taste. The milk frothing also works well; the steam pipe makes firm foam, ideal for (cappuccinos and) iced lattes. I have had quite a few of those during the last warm days. The machine itself looks sleek and feels sturdy and professional – everything is well put together. It gives you the feeling that you are working with serious equipment, but at home. What I especially like is that making coffee becomes a kind of ritual with this. You are really busy for a while, and that makes every cup extra tasty. In short: a nice step towards real barista experience at home. If you also want to be able to optimize your coffee to your liking, then this espresso machine is recommended!
