Translation: machine translated
According to Tchibo, the "Esperto mini" is the world's smallest fully automatic coffee machine. At just 16 centimetres wide, the machine should fit into any kitchen.
Compact coffee machines have so far mostly relied on capsules. The «Esperto mini» from Tchibo grinds fresh beans instead.
Despite its dimensions of 16 × 30.5 × 40 centimetres (W × D × H), the «Esperto mini» incorporates the technology from larger appliances. A stainless steel cone grinder grinds the beans directly before preparation. It works more slowly than grinding disc models, generating less heat and preserving the flavour. Tchibo specifies a pump pressure of 19 bar. The transparent bean container holds 130 to 150 grammes. The water tank holds 1.1 litres and can be removed from the side so that the machine also fits under wall cabinets. (Pretty clever, especially for small kitchens.)
Touch operation and three coffee variants
Use the touch display to choose between Espresso, Caffè Crema and «XL Caffè Crema». You can adjust the coffee strength and quantity for all variants. The dispensed quantity ranges from 25 to 250 millilitres. The spout is height-adjustable. The cup is illuminated while the coffee is flowing. If you want to drink cappuccino or latte macchiato, you will need a separate device for frothing the milk (alternatives).
Tchibo keeps cleaning uncomplicated: You simply remove the brew group and drip tray. An automatic descaling programme takes care of maintenance.
