Choosing a coffee maker

[Crochet]

Crochet, to the "Flea market" her, maybe, who needs it, who wants to "play" with the coffee machine

[Coffee girls!]

Coffee girls! How glad I am that you are all happy. What else is there to find to please you and your men in a not too big gap ?!

[Panevg1943]

Panevg1943 , thanks again for the enlightenment

Yes, tell us something else exciting, ours, coffee

Alexandra and Stеrn
Thank you very much for the information. But in general, is it a worthwhile thing OR ...

I think that it's just that it's just as good in a Turk ... and it's cheaper.

But this coffee is really very good!

Stеrn
I always listen to the opinions of respected people. You have convinced me.

There is a Turkish cafe not far from my house, we sometimes drop in there for coffee. This is where coffee is brewed in such a coffee maker. Until I knew what was brewed in the machine, I was sure that the coffee was from a Turk. Then I saw what kind of coffee they use and now I brew this coffee in a Turk and drink it with pleasure.
Fortunately, in Berlin, Turkish shops are at every turn and there are no problems with Turkish coffee.

And such a coffee maker in Germany costs about 150 rubles of European money.

I think that it's just that it's just as good in a Turk ... and it's cheaper.

And I would say that in a Turk it turns out not worse, but much better! And the coffee itself and the foam. But the effort expended is correspondingly greater.

If you want to drink real coffee, that's only a Turk, the rest is a pitiful parody.

In addition, in the Turk, you can "regulate" the strength of the drink (number of approaches). How can this be compared with a machine gun? In addition, it is necessary to add ingredients (different spices, etc.) to different coffee recipes (and not coffee drinks) at a certain time - the machine is deprived of this.

----
To All: Of course, there is a contingent of coffee lovers who enjoy not the drink, but the money spent and the shine of the trinkets. Decide - what do you want?

PS Regarding counterfeit coffee, another swindler was recently arrested in St. Petersburg. They loosened up the ground coffee of famous brands with everyone - even with sand.

But the APPARATUS! for real gourmets!
The Greeks are great, and have bypassed here!
I recommend JOHNY, for example JOHNY AK / 8-4

Description in Russian taken from 🔗

Description
Polished copper + brass t300C, heating D 200 mm

Weight: 7 (kg)
Dimensions: 280x300x235 (mm)
Voltage: 220 (V)
Power: 1.5 (kW)
Included: sand, 1 turk
Production: Greece
How is coffee made on the sand? We take coffee, fill it with water, heat it up, that's all. Simply? But no. There are many subtleties that must be taken into account.

First, the grinding. It should be the smallest, practically "dusty". Fine grinding will ensure good foaming, and the thick will not creak so much on your teeth

For cooking, a special dish is used - a Turk, it is also a cezve. Cezves are available in stainless steel or copper. Copper ones are more expensive, but they warm up more evenly.

It is better to use quartz sand (more quartz and mica) - it is cleaner, heats up faster and more evenly.

The coffee cannot be boiled, the taste will deteriorate. And the heating should be uniform. Therefore, they came up with special devices. They differ slightly in construction, design and dimensions, but the principle is the same, of course. The devices are connected to a 220 V network, the sand is heated by heating elements, and their power is 1-2 kW. It is highly desirable to have a relay that allows you to maintain a given temperature regime in the range from 100 to 300C and save electricity. Sand is included, so is the Turk. The most popular and most widespread machines for making coffee on the sand on the market are made by JOHNY (Greece).

Well, it's time to describe the whole process in more detail. We are pouring hot water into the Turk. It is possible and cold, this violation is not very significant. We bury the Turk in the sand. The sand is hot at the bottom, and only warm above. After a couple of minutes, coffee foam appears. We take the Turku out of the sand, let the foam settle. Again we bury the Turk in the sand, again let the coffee foam rise and so on several times. The method is time consuming and time consuming.

We pour coffee into small coffee cups with grounds, without straining. We serve cold water separately. If you want, you can add a few drops of water to the cup to help the thickening settle faster. It is customary to drink oriental coffee in small sips and wash it down with cold boiled water. Have a nice coffee
------
To my taste, water should be poured cold, into a pre-warmed Turk, on the bottom of which a little salt is poured before heating. Well, spices are different at certain times.

By the way, you can cook in cezve on a gas stove. The main thing is that there is no direct contact with fire (without sand).
A friend of mine has a special prototype filled with sand for this. the procedure is the same - first heats up the sand, then see above.

By and large, the temperature regime is very good. important

Girls, I don't know if I went there or not, but this is what I have: the Philips Senseo coffee maker broke down. Not subject to repair. But there is still a large supply of delicious Godiva "Creme brulee" coffee in pods of 6 packs of 16 pods (whoever has such a coffee maker knows how difficult it is to find pods for them). Maybe someone needs it? I bought it in bulk at the same price and will sell it. Borders are not a barrier

I am more impressed by this option. Another point in favor of coffee machines.

I have a suspicion that the same result will be obtained from AEROPRESS, with only one difference - you scald yourself.
And how do they try to withstand the famous 16 bar?

By the way, this problem is solved in this "traveling" device. Something I had a desire to show off. Nobody used this miracle? How reliable is the pump? or, like everything else among the bourgeoisie, is it all made of brittle plastic?

The site also offers ground coffee.

PS Understood. nonsense.

[Husky]

Huskyit's great that you became friends

I have a little water in the bottom tank all the time. I read somewhere that this is normal.

AND MY HUSBAND GIVEN ARIETE FOR BIRTHDAY. EVERYTHING IS ANYTHING, BUT MILK FOAM DOESN'T PRODUCE IN ANYTHING. CAN I DO WHAT ARE NOT THIS?

What model??? Write .... can we figure it out ?? !!!

I have ariete 1320

You have a super cappuccino there !!! Milk should be cold and at least 3.5% fat. Keep the cup slightly tilted.

here. I did it and tried the cream, well, nothing. I will have to try again tomorrow

It is not the fat content that matters, but the percentage of protein in milk - at least 3% (protein in whole milk is 3.2%)

Even 0% milk is perfectly knocked down, provided that the protein content is at least 3%

and I used milk, where the protein is 2.8%

[several new topics by type of coffee machine]

My dear coffee lovers !!! I tried to make the section more readable by creating several new topics by type of coffee machine... But, since I am not a great specialist in this area, I could make mistakes. If you see inaccuracies in the placement of posts, write to me in a personal, I will be very grateful!

And I decided to buy an espresso coffee maker to replace the drip, which was not as convenient to clean as I thought. It turns out that this is not so easy ...
In general, the requirements are: pressure 15 bar, cappuccinatore, not too expensive. First I stopped at the model Ariete 1330 or 1331. Found it in several stores, but no, they write "available", call, promise, call back almost immediately and say "it is not known when it will be and whether it will be." Then I chose other models. Vitek 1511 or 1508. They were almost never promised anywhere. Then they began to look for Zelmer Zelmer 13Z014 or Binaton SGE-9904 ... Some mysticism ... Again, the presence of coffee makers ends in failure. I began to look for something else.
They called about Electrolux EEA 110. I did not find any reviews about it anywhere. They promised to fulfill the order within 30 working days !! In general, this is not such a simple matter, buy a coffee maker

Alisa_t for the money that costs Electrolux EEA 110 you can buy a coffee machine in Moscow.

We can't do this. Arietas offer 75u each. That is, then Zelmer, Binaton and Electrolux ($ 96-126) go at about the same price, you can also take DeLoggi for that amount, but for some reason you don't want to. Those with coffee grinders from 200 cu e. already, and the cheapest coffee machine was tried now by a special. find, almost $ 300 That is, but this is the cheapest.

For $ 115-155 - a coffee machine? !!

Well, Tanya you confused .... for 3000 you can't buy a coffee machine .... the cheapest 15000 !!!

I looked on the Internet and he gave me that Electrolux EEA 110 costs 13,700, and we now have a Saeco Xsmall (white) stock in the Media Market at a price of 11,111 rubles. and Delonge EAM 4200 11999 rubles, that's why I wrote so.
Electrolux looked here 🔗 the store is called World of Coffee and the price starts from 13986 rubles.

Tanya !! Are they there what ?? : oy looked here

[Nat_ka]

At home there is a coffee maker with a cappuccino maker, etc., but I also want mukka.

Nat_ka
I have both, I have already played enough of mukka, now I want this:

Yeah! This is how you will make your choice. We do not drink pure coffee, only with cream or milk. So I want mucca

Good evening.
I liked the coffee maker / as a gift to my mother / Tassimo, but ... it needs Tassimov coffee disks / tablets /, but they are not in stores, order only via the Internet.
I wonder if there are coffee makers that take pills and ground coffee ??? probably, not...

[Saeko Nina Bar]

Of course there is. My Saeko Nina Bar so

I ordered just such a coffee maker. Delivery on Monday! Maybe someone has a similar one, share your impressions, please !!!!

here is her photo: called Gaggia New Baby Twin
🔗

About 3 weeks ago they brought my coffee maker, quickly enough, it could be worse. Electrolux EEA 110. I am writing my review, maybe someone will come in handy. I have Saeko at work, so there is something to compare with. Espresso foam, cappuccino too. It is convenient to add water to the container - you can simply open the lid, and not take out the entire container completely.

Rimma71 on the Prokofe and ixbt forums have good reviews about your coffee maker and share your impressions about it.

Help me please! I am choosing an inexpensive espresso machine, while I settled on Delonghi EC410.B and Delonghi EC 155, I could not comment on my choice. Which is better. And in general, maybe I'm looking at the wrong models, where to look. I really, really look forward to hearing !!!!

[ksanka76]

ksanka76You have made, in my opinion, a wonderful choice, both coffee makers are good.
I have been using the Delonghi EC 410.B coffee maker for 5 years and am very happy with it (you can say I love it dearly). About the Delonghi EC 155 model I can only judge by the reviews on the sites, they seem to be praised too, but I would recommend the 410 model. And not only because I have one, I just very often met laudatory reviews about her on various sites, they often write that this is one of the best models in its class and I can agree with this, since in 5 years not a single problem with her did not arise. t. t. t. Coffee brews great, with good froth, the cappuccinatore is the most common, but I practically do not use it, as I prefer espresso. And what I also like about this model is that it is possible to use coffee in pods (monodoses), sometimes there is no time or desire to fill, and then clean the horn and this function is very helpful. The design is also very nice for the 410 model, but I must warn you that it is quite voluminous in size, since it has a large water tank, not so much as 2 times more than 155, but rather big.
I also often meet good reviews about Saeco and Gaggia coffee makers, look also at their models.
Good choice and delicious coffee.

Thanks for the quick and detailed answer!

Girls who understand coffee makers need to choose from the Zelmers. Given the model:
ZELMER 13Z013 Espresso
ZELMER 13Z014 red
ZELMER 13Z015 Espresso
ZELMER 13Z016 Espresso

What to choose? I read reviews on the internet, each has some minor minuses or misunderstandings. And what to do? Help with advice. What to look for when choosing?

Can anyone say anything about the Russell hobbs coffee makers? I want to buy as a gift, but I haven't found any reviews anywhere (

It’s harmful to read you here. Now I also decided to buy a coffee maker for my husband (he drinks coffee, but I will not refuse cappuccino once a week). I don't need scary coffee machines, I need something simpler, not very big, to make espresso. As I understand it, almost everyone is equipped with a cappuccinator now.Initially, the choice fell on the Bosch TCA 4101,

but there are many reviews that it looks more like a plastic toy. So I decided to look at Kenwood ES020


and here also about the De'Longhi EC 410 I was interested in the review.

I have enough time to think, the deadline is mid-August (you can do it earlier).

How do you like this machine?

I bought a De'Longhi EC 410 after all, we have been using the coffee maker for the third month and my husband and I are delighted. the espresso is delicious, cappuccino is always obtained with very good froth, practically no noise. so on my own example, I would advise delongi.

Hello everybody! Such a favorite topic: coffee ...

I bought a bread machine and I am happy every day, now I want a coffee maker

Found something similar: Electric Turkish coffee maker Kromax ENDEVER KR-220
Has anyone used it? Please share your impression.

How do you like this machine?



Reviews: 🔗

Did you buy it? like?
Our Zelmer broke down and we went crazy for two weeks without coffee and decided to buy a new coffee maker. Considered the same Zelmer with a display, but after reading you decided to take the saeco. After reading reviews on ixbt, you can choose via venetto de luxe and lo and behold! found it on sale. We are waiting on Tuesday.
So we are again in the ranks of coffee lovers.
I read the reviews, I came across information about Zelmer and its restart after the lack of water - now I think, maybe I should have just restarted it?

I finally bought myself a BEKO coffee maker for 1 Turk. Here is this: I use only the 2nd day. So far, I'm just very happy. The main motive when buying was not to wash the stove after every coffee brew. A can of Turkish coffee, promised to those who would pick up the coffee maker by self-pickup from the office, was given, and not one, but as much as 4 (my husband received, something went wrong there, he had to wait a long time, and additional cans of coffee were provided as compensation - a huge surprise for me). I tried Turkish coffee - I liked it, but my daughter grimaced and did not drink (well, from my point of view, she drinks not coffee at all, but swill ...). I tried to brew the coffee (ground in an ordinary knife coffee grinder) that I usually drink. The result was also quite satisfactory for me. So for now I'm quite happy!

Please advise! I looked after myself an Ariete 1329 Cafe Roma Deluxe coffee maker. But I found only 2 reviews on Yandex Market. And the firm doesn't tell me much. Before that there was Saeco - a carob with a coffee grinder and heated cups. I loved her SO !!! I would like to have similar functions, but almost all carob ones work on ground coffee. And I need a coffee grinder in it. And warming cups (preferably).
Does anyone know what this model is? Or maybe there is an alternative (but I couldn't find it)?

Coffee lovers, tell me.
Bought Saeco Via Veneto. A month later, the coffee stopped flowing from the horn. Without the horn, everything flows normally and the pressure is good. We put an empty horn - everything is also ok. And we pour in coffee (the same all the time) and it flows through time. What's the matter?
