The best best friend in college got married. For half a year, the couple has been adding various gadgets and equipment to their small home, because they both like to drink coffee and usually play with various capsule French presses, so In compliance with their wishes, we decided to give them a coffee machine as a wedding gift.
After deciding on a coffee machine, what to give became a question. After all, coffee machines have big pitfalls. Considering the problem of grinding beans, fully automatic seems to be better. The purchase price of De'Longhi ESAM3000 is only 2K+, which is good value for money, but the appearance is not very fashionable. , the most important thing is that the fully automatic is a little less interesting
Well, the price of the National Bank is really scary
After that, I switched to semi-automatic.
To make a cup of coffee that can beat Starbucks, the machine requirements are still very high. Although we can use fresh coffee beans, the standard of Star Daddy’s 20W machine is very stressful for ordinary toy machines.
The domestic imitation S is a good choice, and the price/performance ratio is quite high. However, as a gift, the workmanship seems not very good, and the appearance is not good enough.
The imitation S is not good, so let’s take a look at the real S. The price is still affordable. The purchasing agent is about 3800, which is very expensive. The bean machine is... You can solve it yourself, classmate
To be honest, the appearance of the real S is pretty good, but the 300ML small boiler is not very convenient, and the operation of the double boiler is more complicated... So I looked at this again, this one is gentle It’s an entry-level choice ~ Apart from the 34-pound weight and huge size, I feel like I’ve gone overboard and my budget has doubled.
My best friend said that since the one-bedroom apartment is so small and the coffee pit is so deep, I’d better choose a more ordinary one. , it’s good for my good-looking wife to be happy
So I went back to De’Longhi, this one comes with a De’Longhi bean grinder, it looks like a set, full of style, OK, a toy machine is a toy machine, my best friend In fact, the requirements are not high.
is still purchased on behalf of others. It is 1,000+ lower than the official price. In order to increase the quality, I also bought a small powder hammer and pressing pad.
ECO311 is a product of Delonghi's retro series, and it also has a matching toaster. As for the electric kettle, I saw six colors in the series. Black, white and red are ordinary colors and the price is lower. Light blue, olive green and off-white are retro colors, which look good and the price is slightly higher. The machine is positioned as a household 15BAR espresso machine. Of course it is not a boiler machine. The water temperature control is not very good and the pressure is relatively unstable. It is a good-looking toy machine. However, we are not professional in drinking coffee. Star Dad I just think it's pretty good, and I probably won't appreciate high-end products. I just buy one and put it at home. It looks good and tastes passable when I drink it. That's fine.
After waiting for a while, the machine came and was sent directly to the classmate's home. We unboxed it together
When we opened the box, we saw that the powder hammer and pressing pad were also stuffed in the box~
took out the accessories and found a powder spoon and a thick book inside. There is not much content in the manual, but it comes with multiple languages... Then, when I saw the main body, I chose olive green. This color is the most popular, and it is also the most expensive
optional accessories. Powder hammer, powder press, and a small milk jug given by the boss, but I don’t know how to draw flowers...
Family portrait, there are two cups of powder bowls on the brewing head, and there are one cup and 1.5 cups in the box You can choose the
machine body, which has a small nameplate with the word "retro" on it. There are three buttons on the front, which are power, coffee filling switch, and steam switch. The ball on the top is a knob for adjusting the size of the steam, and there is a warm cup on the top. The small platform has a steam nozzle on the right side. It feels fully equipped and made of all metal. It looks like that~
Since the poor grinder is still wandering on the road, in order to make things more beautiful, I had to give away an extra can of coffee powder. , I chose LAVAZZA. My best friend said that he had never heard of it and only knew about ILLY. I said that ILLY’s packaging is too cute and LAVAZZA is more manly.
Although the machine is not professional and my skills are better, I still demonstrate it to them and start the whole process.
My classmate was the one who pressed the powder, eh, the pressing was really bad~
The first cup of ESP was completed. I quoted my classmate’s wife, wow, there is grease, it’s just like the real thing... It seems that I was too disparaging about the toy machine before. More...
For milk frothing, the steam of this machine is quite sufficient, and the milk frothing is very fast and the effect is good. It is much easier than the Delonghi EC410 I have at home, and then the combination is completed, and the latte art... Of course I can't. The finished product of
looks pretty good, "just like the real thing." After drinking it, my classmates said that it is almost the same as Dad Xing~ Well, our appreciation of coffee is just like this, so the machine is quite suitable.
call it a day, my classmate has successfully jumped into the pit, and maybe he will use tens of thousands of dollars to upgrade the equipment in the future~ But of course this is not my fault.
Overall, this machine is quite good as a small household appliance, and the product is not bad. , the appearance is good, and the price is indeed a bit more expensive than Tsann Kun and other domestic products with the same performance. However, as a fashionable home appliance, friends who like this style may wish to buy it. It is also quite interesting.
