Not quite as good as ‘proper’ machines but that’s the payoff for the massive reduction in hassle. Not one for snobs but a good option for normal people
Can someone explain to me the “massive hassle” in making proper coffee?
For day-to-day use I use ground (Lavazza) coffee.
I have to:
~ switch machine on (same as Nespresso)
~ wait for machine to warm machine up (same as Nespresso)
~ remove coffee basket (Nespresso users open the machine)
~ put two measured spoons of coffee in and tamp down, takes ~5 seconds (Nespresso users just pop a capsule in)
~ replace coffee basket (Nespresso users close the machine)
~ switch pump on (same as Nespresso)
~ switch pump off (automatic for Nespresso?)
~ remove coffee basket and knock contents into bin (Nespresso users only have to empty used capsules periodically)
So, the massive difference amounts to spooning coffee in, switching the pump off and binning the old grounds after every cup?
