According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
Grind your own beans and brew an espresso like a real barista with the Solis Barista Perfetta Plus 1170 + Eureka Steel. Determine the coarseness of your grind yourself and set the grinding settings from super fine to very coarse. Your filter holder collects the ground beans. With the tamper, you can push the freshly ground beans together, so that the coffee machine distributes the water well over the coffee. When the pressure of the built-in manometer is between 8 and 12, you get the best taste from the coffee. Fancy a cappuccino? Froth your favorite milk in the included milk pitcher and create a full micro foam for your espresso.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to prepare a tasty coffee with a piston machine. This isn't nearly as easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.Build quality | Mid-range | |

In use for almost 2 weeks now, the novelty has worn off a bit and an objective opinion is slowly starting to form. First of all, it is a beautiful device. Sleek design of beautifully brushed stainless steel gives it a classy look. Quality of the parts looks and feels solid. Except for the plastic drip tray and plastic handle of the coffee holder. First use as a layman in the field of espresso machines takes some getting used to. Fortunately, the clear manual helps you quickly to your first real espresso. The device gives you a lovely hot cup of coffee within 2 minutes of switching it on. You decide how you want to drink it. From temperature to quantity and from coarsely or finely ground to coffee pads, everything is possible. So fast filter grinding, ground yourself or special pads. The first and the last tested and both give a good cup of coffee. Self-ground not yet tested because a coffee grinder is not yet part of my kitchenware. The milk frother or steam function is a different story. The first time it cost me a carton of milk before I could put a real cappuccino on the table. But now I have mastered the technology and I hear something. Good foam layer and wonderfully warm. Warming up chocolate milk is also great and it also produces a nice creamy foam layer. There are of course also disadvantages. For example, the warming plate on top is something that could be better. It doesn't really warm up. The steam pipe sometimes makes a high-pitched whistle which is very irritating.

The device can be used quickly after switching on and then switches off automatically. That is very nice if you would otherwise forget. But because the device is never on for long, I haven't noticed the warming plate on top for the cups. But filling the cups in advance with hot water also works. The device is much quieter than I was used to, very nice for roommates and neighbors. It's also narrower than I'm used to, which is nice if you don't have a lot of countertops. After installing, which is a number of steps, it is quick to use. Stops automatically after 1 or 2 coffees.

No negatives, why not? First of all, when you buy an espresso machine you have to realize that you cannot provide 10 people with coffee in 5 minutes. In addition, you have to clean the filter after every cup of coffee (or 2 at the same time). For me, this is precisely the joy of making coffee. The design is beautiful, a narrow machine that can easily be placed in your kitchen. The material feels solid and sturdy. It takes some time to start using the device for the first time. I really had to use the manual to get the hang of it, but there's a manual for that and it's clear and concise. The device heats up quickly. This device has filters for beans, ground coffee and pads, so there is something for everyone. I have already tried and tasted everything. Coffee pods are quick and easy, but not my preference. For beans, a grinder is a must, even then you have to grind the beans in the right way, otherwise the coffee will run too fast or too slow, so that your coffee can taste bitter or sour. Personally, this is my preference, because that is really preparing coffee for me. I also used a lot of ground coffee. Tried different strengths and flavors. The dosing spoon and stamer are very handy. Espresso is provided with a nice foam layer. The milk frother is user-friendly and you have to learn that too. Add Youtube and you will learn quickly. The included jug is beautiful and easy to use. In short, for me a nice machine, making coffee takes some time. If you don't want that, you should go for a fully automatic machine. Highly recommended for me, on all fronts.
