According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
The Solis Caffespresso Pro 117 is an espresso machine for real coffee lovers, because you can brew an espresso exactly to your liking. Use the integrated manometer to make a cup of coffee using exactly the right pressure. The pressure especially determines the strength of the coffee and the thickness of the crema layer. For making a cup of tea, use the hot water function. Or preheat a cup, ensuring your espresso cools down less quickly. Fancy a cappuccino? Use the steam pipe to froth some milk in the included stainless steel milk can. The 'CLEAN ME' light will light up whenever the machine needs descaling. Thanks to the fully stainless-steel casing, you get yourself a sturdy specimen.
Note: don't forget to buy a separate coffee grinder for making coffee with freshly ground beans.Built-in coffee grinder | ||

Design
Owned the Solis Caffespresso Pro 117 for a few weeks now. A robust machine and a beautiful eye-catcher on the counter with the illuminated keys. I was looking for something a bit more hip than the more traditional machines like the Gaggia Classic or the Rancillio Silvia. This machine succeeded. The machine comes complete, with a tamper, milk frother and no fewer than 4 filters (2 with a double-walled bottom and 2 with a single-walled bottom - respectively for pre-ground coffee and for self-ground coffee). Furthermore, a needle and some tools for the coffee spout and steam pipe. I find it useful that the machine heats up quickly, you can also tap hot water and you can easily switch between frothing milk and making coffee (the machine flushes itself to quickly get the right temperature). The price is quite hefty, I don't dare to say anything about durability yet, but there seems to be no cutbacks.

The coffee only heats up to 53 degrees, which affects the taste. Coolblue then asked how many degrees the coffee should have. This should be 95 degrees. Sent the machine back on advice. Got the machine back after 2 weeks with the manufacturer's comment that the coffee of this machine simply does not get warmer. So bad for me.

Great device, looks nice (eye also wants something) very quickly on temperature. Coffee taste/strength adjustable ........ very special, is therefore already special.
