With a maximum pressure of 15 bars, it ensures optimal extraction of flavors, thus offering a rich and tasty coffee. Its removable water tank and the water quantity adjustment contribute to a simplified user experience, making drink preparation quick and enjoyable. However, there are some drawbacks to note. The lack of a built-in grinder limits the use of fresh coffee beans, which may disappoint purists.
