Bosch800 Series Fully Automatic Espresso and Coffee Machine – 36 Drinks with Coffee World, Cold Brew, Double Cup, Integrated Milk Container, Smart Features, in Stainless Steel TQU60703

The media could not be loaded. Yes, it is a bit expensive but produces great espresso and coffees. The various types of coffees offered are very distinctive and taste amazing, even cold brew. Great way to explore different coffees that you otherwise would probably not.The milk frother works amazing on whole milk products but not as well on alternatives. You may want to buy another milk container or adapter with the tube just for cleaning as the milk container has an odd shape and not so easy to clean.The touch screen is very responsive, but I worry about the longevity. I purchased an extended warranty through Bosch just in case.The drip tray fills up rather quickly and if you use milk products, you'll want to rinse daily. I place a small cup to catch the rise cycles during power on/off.My only complaint would be I wish the spout went a little higher to accommodate travel mugs. You can purchase the coffee pot to make 16/32 oz of coffee, but as you can see the price climbs a little bit after purchase for an already expensive machine.If you have guests, this is a great conversation piece and everyone loves trying out different coffees and exploring all of its offerings with the gorgeous touch screen panel.The app is very responsive and extremely useful. If you want to string together a series of coffee and/or milk selections you can. Let's say you make a milk based coffee but like extra milk, or want to add a shot of espresso, you can string those two together and save as a favorite. You can now create your favorite cup with a single press of a button.

Have had mine now for 4 months and couldn’t be happier. Great product with a variety of coffee options. Everyone who I make a cup for loves it. Only issues is that the warm milk feature doesn’t let you set milk temp. The cup warmer doesn’t really warm cups. But don’t get me wrong the macchiato and cappuccino are fantastic and it’s super easy to use. In total it was worth every penny. It’s quiet even when grinding beans, it’s consistent, and it makes several types from espresso to a standard cup of joe.

The media could not be loaded. I was nervous about purchasing this product due to the mixed reviews.The cost and the mixture of views kept me from pressing purchase.For the record, I am a coffee snob and love dark coffees mixed with low-fat low-calorie itemsAfter having the product a week, the product is amazing. A+I needed to call customer support upon receiving the product because the side, milk container, would not suck up the milk. After consultation with a quick five minute phone call to their immediately responsive customer service hotline., come to find out I installed a small piece incorrectly upon receipt of the productWithin five minutes, I had a cappuccino, a flat white, and a café con Leche phenomenal !I’m using Petes dark roast and 4% whole milkAll of the coffee varieties are amazing.As a person with a lot on my plate, you need to know the machine cleans itselfBefore each drink, the machine cleans itself, and after the last drink is made it cleans itselfI was able to purchase an open box item on Amazon for $1200 instead of the $2000 and it was a purchase that a person returned without ever trying the machine. You can do the math.I highly recommend the machine, the quality of coffee is amazing and the temperature is just right. The coffee is slightly too hot to drink when it’s first made but after a minute or two it drops to a reasonable temperature and is perfect for consumption.Another cheat code to have steamed and frothy milk for your lattes, cappuccinos or any milk based product is to leave the milk out to have it reach room temperature before you make the coffee or you can get European shelf milk, which you can leave out for multiple days without it becoming an issue this milk comes in small containers like apple juice box containers for kids lunchesBest of luck to you. I hope you find the machine that’s right for you.

The bean hopper is designed with a plastic "grill" over the grinder. When you pour in coffee beans they tend to bounce off the grill and go all over the counter. You have to pour real slow and push the beans through the grill as you go along to avoid this.The used "pucks" of coffee are deposited straight into the drip tray where they mix with water and turn into a sludge. They give you a plastic flat shovel like scooper to remove the grinds, but it is pretty much like cleaning out a cat litter box.The touch menu/buttons do not work well. I had to 'tap' to get them to work mote often than not. The real show stopper was the On/Off button. From day 1 I always had to press it several times until I could the machine to turn on or off. After about 2 weeks it simply stopped working.Maybe I got a lemon, I don't know, but I had to return the machine. I decided not to exchange for a new one but instead went the Jura Z10 (which I'm super happy with)

I think this machine is fantastic. Im no coffee expert but everyone who comes over loves the coffee and i think its great. The milk frother works well. Its easy to clean and maintain without shipping the machine back to the manufacturer for service and or cleaning.Im totally satisfied with the machine after aprox 500 double shot coffee drinks. It still works and looks great.
