Pros and cons

According to our Fully automatic espresso machine expert

You can make 2 espressos or 2 milk specialties at the push of a button.
An espresso tastes fuller, thanks to the special brewing method which lets the water come into contact with the coffee for longer.
You can choose from 5 coffee specialties and adjust the strength, amount, and temperature yourself.
The machine doesn't have a heating plate that lets you pre-heat the cups.
You can't make a cup of decaf coffee in between without a compartment for ground coffee.

Description

With the KRUPS Evidence ECO-Design EA8968, you can easily brew a cappuccino or latte macchiato. You can brew 2 coffee specialties at the same time. This way, you and your partner can drink a warm cup of coffee at the same time. The Quattro Force technology quickly grinds the beans and gets even more flavor out of your coffee. The tamping system presses the ground coffee firmly, so the aromas are released. Choose from 5 different coffee specialties and adjust the settings. You can adjust the flavor to your preferences via the user-friendly touch buttons. This sustainable coffee machine consists of 62% recycled plastic. Thanks to the spacious 2.3L water tank, you can brew multiple cups after each other without having to refill in between. Does the machine need cleaning? You'll receive a notification.

Should have done this much sooner, super machine

Easy to set up
Low maintenance

When I first started using the Krups EA8968E0 Evidence Eco, I had one wish: a machine that delivers delicious coffee every day—especially cappuccino—without much effort on my part. That wish has largely come true.

First impression & ease of use The machine looks sleek and compact on my countertop. After setting it up and turning on the first grinder, you immediately notice how easy it all works. Fill the tank, add coffee beans, refill the water—and that's it. The interface is clear and intuitive: with a few button presses, you can choose cappuccino, espresso, or other coffee varieties.

Maintenance: hassle-free What I especially appreciate is how little maintenance the machine requires. Collect the coffee grounds, empty the water tank, and rinse it every so often—that's it. No complicated cleaning routine, no loose parts to take apart every week. That saves a lot of time and frustration.

Taste of the coffee—especially cappuccino And most importantly: the coffee. My cappuccinos are creamy, smooth, and delicious at the right temperature. The foam is consistent—not too thin, not too soggy—just the way I like them. Espressos are full-bodied, rich, and not bitter.

What struck me: even when I make coffee several times a day, the taste remains consistent. No compromise on quality, no unpleasant aftertaste, just coffee you'd expect from a good coffee shop.

Daily Use & Comfort The machine is responsive, not overly noisy, and feels solidly built. Ideal if you want to make a quick coffee before work or enjoy a quiet evening without having to worry about frothing milk or grinding coffee.

Conclusion For me, the Krups EA8968E0 Evidence Eco is a true "set-and-forget" machine: you fill it, press the button, and you get delicious coffee every time—the cappuccinos, in particular, stand out for their creaminess and consistent quality. Its low maintenance makes it perfect for daily use, hassle-free. If you love good coffee but hate cleaning and adjusting settings, this machine is an absolute must-have.

Lukewarm coffee and hardly any milk foam

One cappuccino takes about a minute and a half

I've used this coffee maker twice now, and both have exactly the same problems. The coffee is lukewarm instead of hot, and the milk froth is barely there or disappears almost immediately. With the first machine, only the first cup was fine, but after that, it didn't work. With the exchanged machine, even the first cup was lukewarm. Coolblue is offering to exchange the machine again, but since this is happening with two identical machines, I seriously doubt whether this is a defect and not simply a product characteristic. For a machine in this price range, I don't expect top-notch barista quality, but you can expect a decent cappuccino. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend this machine, regardless of Coolblue's otherwise excellent service.
