Pros and cons

According to our Fully automatic espresso machine expert

Thanks to its slim size, the coffee machine takes up less space on your countertop than other fully automatic machines.
You can adjust the intensity, amount, and grind size of your coffee.
The descaling indicator light burns automatically when you have to descale the coffee machine.
You froth milk manually with the steam wand, so a cappuccino takes more time and effort to make.
The coffee machine makes more noise than other fully automatic coffee machines with 70.5dB.

Description

With the compact Krups EA8118, you can easily make 1 or 2 cups of coffee at the same time from freshly-ground coffee beans. The machine doesn't take up a lot of space on your countertop compared to other fully-automatic espresso machines. Fill the water tank and bean hopper and the machine does the work for you. It can make an espresso or lungo. You can adjust these coffees to suit your own taste. With the dial, you can adjust the amount of coffee or the grind size. Want a cappuccino? Froth the milk yourself with the steam wand. The machine automatically rinses the pipes after every brew. The descaling indicator light will burn as soon as the machine needs descaling. That way, you won't forget to do it.

Great machine but with a dangerous part

PLEASE NOTE THE CLEANING TABLETS

Coffee machine is fine to use, but beware! At cleaning moment "K" it turned out that the original cleaning tablet got stuck in the opening. When I had unscrewed everything, it turned out that there were still 3 tablets in the guide. We've had the device for almost 2 years, so who knows what happened to the previous tablets, did they end up completely in the cleaning or maybe come loose during the regular coffee process?! Check it and if you put a tablet in the guide, push it through. It then falls on the filter/compression chamber where it is included in the correct cleaning path.

A delicious cup of coffee, but technically just bad!

Very good cup of coffee
Easy operation
In 2 years already 2x return due to leakage with this specific device.

Despite a delicious cup of coffee, Krups is not recommended. The system will leak far too quickly, which is a technical problem and inherent in the coffee brewing system itself. I've had several of these Krups devices, all of which started leaking after a few months. They are always replaced within warranty, which also leaked or repaired, but which you always have problems with.

Great espresso for a decent price

Great espresso
Solid construction
Easy to set up
Complains smoothly about full waste compartment

When the alarm goes off in the early morning, I need motivation to throw my legs over the edge of the bed. As far as I'm concerned, a good espresso is what eases getting up. Nespresso has done this in recent years, and not without merit, but still: the freshly ground beans, adjust the strength yourself, more control... And the cups are not exactly cheap either. I have had this Krups at home for a week now to test whether this machine will make me stop using the Nespresso.

The installation is simple. However, keep in mind that the device will be flushed the first time. This is accompanied by a lot of water through the machine and the steam nozzle. Of course I hadn't read the manual and I was surprised by the fact that water was coming out of all its ends. Just mop up and move on...

After refilling the water, the beans in it (do yourself a favor and buy good espresso beans at a specialty store), grind setting on fine and the wheel on 30ml coffee it was a press of the "give me a strong espresso" button and go... The machine does everything else itself: heats up, grinds the beans (that does make noise, but the beans are hard), and then the water is pressed through the ground espresso and the espresso cup fills up nicely. The coffee is hot, the cream layer lies nicely and the remaining shuffleboard disc falls into the waste bin after a click. The device does what you expect and knows how to produce a powerful, beautiful espresso. As an extra feature, there is a thorough cleaning program that rinses everything nicely and of course the steam nozzle which is removable for convenient cleaning. Milk in the coffee is a shame, but it works fine. I think Krups has created an affordable fully automatic machine with this machine. No fuss, fancy displays or extreme setting options, but a great device for anyone who wants a little more than nespresso or (brrrrr) coffee pads.
