Highlights
Super-automatic espresso machine
Integrated milk jug & frother Mirror Stainless Steel
100% ceramic grinders
This espresso machine is equipped 100%
ceramic grinders. Saeco uses ceramic grinders
because of their consistent grind without
overheating the coffee bean for an impeccable
espresso. Ceramic also ensures long-lasting
performance and a totally silent operation.
8 step adjustable grinders
Different coffee blends require different levels of
granularity for the full flavor to unfold. The grind
granularity of this espresso machine can be
adjusted in 8 settings, from the finest grind, for a
full bodied espresso, to the coarsest, for a
lighter coffee.
6 user profiles
This Saeco espresso machine comes with 6
customizable profiles that memorize your
personal preference for different coffee drinks.
This makes it very easy to get a perfect tailor-
made cup of coffee although you are not the
only one using the machine.
Automatic dual cleaning carafe
This Saeco espresso machine comes with a fully
automated dual clean function for its milk carafe.
The dual cleaning uses two independent steam
cycles to swiftly rinse your milk carafe after each
coffee drink you prepare, for a fresh milk drink
everytime. Hygienic milk frothing was never this
easy.
Auto cleaning and descaling
Saeco designed this espresso machine to
automatically clean its coffee circuit with water
upon starting up or switching off of the machine,
this delivers a great, fresh taste with each cup of
coffee. Regular descaling prolongs your espresso
machine’s life. This machine will not only prompt
when descaling is needed, the automated
descaling process will start on your machine and
guides you with clear on-screen messages when
you have to intervene. Descaling has never been
so easy!
Professional double boiler
With 2 separate heating systems to cater for
both the optimal coffee or milk frothing
temperatures, this Saeco fully automatic
espresso machine guarantees professional
performance and speed everytime. You are able
to prepare as many latte macchiatos and
cappuccinos as you wish, one after the other and
each just as good as the previous without
waiting.
