After seeing how friends got into elaborate espresso machines and how much they enjoy good coffee, I decided to explore options. My wife and I are what I would call casual partakers in Cappuccino and espresso beverages. This machine received very positive reviews and is relatively inexpensive. We have it a few weeks now and love it! It makes a great espresso and cappuccino, is easy to learn, use , clean and enjoy the occasional cups. One reviewer recommended PEETS blends. We are older and Decaf is better at night, so Peets Decaf Dark Roast is perfect for us. You will need espresso cups, a stainless froth pitcher and cappuccino cups. Buy your cappuccino cups after you use the machine, there is a space constraint. To fit my cappuccino cups, the ones I bought wouldn't fit under the dispenser, I removed the floor grate and they fit fine. Otherwise it is a great machine. I bought one for my daughter after they enjoyed ours.I been using it for couple of weeks seems works greatTime will tell how well will workWill update it again in a yearThis is an awesome machine Brews just like some of the fancy coffee shops you won't be disappointed...Good quality crema comes out on top. Just wonderful..Very easy to use a very stylish on the counter. It's not overly big it's a perfect size.This espresso machine is delivered very well and scratch-proof packed in a cardboard box.The machine has a decent finish with no visible material defects.The operation is very simple, everything is explained step by step in the instructions (with pictures). The intensity can be adjusted in different levels, depending on what you want. Personally, I always run new machines through with water a few times before using them for the first time.The dosing of the coffee powder works perfectly with the enclosed spoon.I personally love the latte macciato. This works wonderfully with the steam nozzle. It might be a matter of practice at first.Cleaning is also very easy, the machine can be disassembled into many individual parts.We tried this machine out from friends and immediately bought it because it's compact and not heavy, which is perfect for our caravan. We are already looking forward to the camping holiday with fresh, delicious coffee!I have had this machine since the end of august, and I can honestly say I've used it almost every single day since. It makes single and double shots and is incredibly easy to use. I purchased a few coffee syrups and caramel and mocha sauces. I've had mochas, and pumpkin caramel lattes, and cortados, and cappuccinos. It froths even almond milk up to an absolutely ridiculous degree! This isn't fancy barista blend milk. Just plain, generic, unsweetened almond milk, frothed up all the way to the top of my oversized mug. The little milk tank is detachable. You just run a 10 second clean cycle after you're done with lattes, then slide it out and put it right in the fridge for next time. The machine takes about 2-4 minutes to warm up from completely off, and it turns itself off automatically. There's a little shelf to raise the height of your glass if you're doing just espresso shots into a little cup. The water tank is easy to refill. If you're an espresso snob, this might not be the machine for you, but if you just want to have delicious lattes and cappuccinos at home, this is absolutely perfect. Best anniversary gift ever :)I only drink espresso. The JASSY espresso machine is perfect for me: compact, heats up quickly, requires little cleaning, uses little water and much more.ConstructionThe machine is ready for use immediately after delivery: add the drip tray, fill the water tank, that's all it takes.warm-up timeLasts just over a minute. The machine will automatically shut down after a period of inactivity.coffee specialitiesThe machine can be used to prepare small/large coffee and espresso. There is also the option of frothing milk, such as latte macchiato, cappuccino & Co.What I likeThe machine has no frills.Not 30 coffee specialties from which I can/must choose, but the three mentioned above. As an espresso drinker, that's enough for me.No expensive portafilter machineI had been toying with the idea of ​​buying a "real" portafilter machine for a long time. Only, I drink a maximum of two espressos a day. The acquisition costs were too high for me.Great creamBecause I didn't feel like cleaning fully automatic machines regularly, I switched to stovetop pots. I just don't have any crema there. I finally have it again and just as little cleaning effort. Perfect.Cleaning is easyI don't have to run long rinsing programs and somehow try to get the brewing unit clean, which never works...Little water consumptionCompared to the Melitta Latticia OT F300-101 fully automatic machine, for example, I only need one liter per week instead of 2-3 liters. As I said, I only drink espresso.Takes up very little space.I live under the roof. The machine is so small and compact that it fits under the sloping roof and only takes up half the work space. Another plus for me.Also tested: milk frothingAlso works great with Barista Almond Milk. But as written, I only drink espresso, So I dont need it
