Well we finally — 1 year ago
Worth doing!
picked out the machine we wanted (and could afford!) and collected it last night.
I am now the proud owner of a Krups XP7240 Compact Espreseria. For a machine that is fully automatic, it is very compact (important seeing as how my kitchen isn’t that large!). P and I had a play around with it last night to work out how to make a good coffee and after the 4th or 5th attempt I think we had it right.
It’s so wonderful – you just push a button and there is your coffee! No grinds to clean up, no milk to froth yourself (it even does that!) – totally amazing!
