The big difference to most coffee machines is that a classic nozzle is used here, which has no "bonnet". This means that you cannot just hold the nozzle in the milk, as it works there. Specifically, you have to keep the opening of the nozzle on the surface of the milk at all times, so that air is drawn down with it and you hear a hiss. Over time, the milk level rises, so you have to keep pulling the nozzle up too slowly to stay on the surface of the milk. As soon as the milk is hot and you can almost no longer hold the cup in your hand, turn off the steam and pull the nozzle out of the cup. Then you can tap the cup on the table and swirl the milk a bit to get rid of the big bubbles. Of course, the whole thing is an art that takes practice and not everyone does it the same way, but this is how it works for me. Above all, the final temperature at which you stop makes a noticeable difference: if you froth too early, the milk is still quite liquid and has little firmness. If you foam for too long, the foam becomes firm and flows poorly out of the cup. I hope I have helped you and enjoy your latte ;-)

Hello, if you want to become a professional barista, don't buy this machine. Go for a machine with a 58 mm filter holder. And double tanks so that you can make coffees and steamer milk at the same time. I advise you to visit Carasso in Geneva. They offer very professional machines and courses. Rocket machines are a good place to start. James Hoffman's YouTube channel is another. Have a good day.

We work with daily prices, which can be influenced by various factors such as purchasing conditions, stock levels and supply and demand. It is therefore possible that different colour variations may differ in price.

The bean container is attached/connected directly to the grinder. When removing the container, any beans still inside would fall out. The container is therefore only really removed for cleaning. So if I understand the question correctly, "simply" changing the second bean in this way is not really possible spontaneously. Furthermore, different beans also require different grinds, which means you have to keep changing the grinder. The only really sensible way to use two different coffee beans is to use an additional grinder. Of course, you can brew ground coffee in this machine. You can therefore fill the portafilter with ground coffee outside and then even use the integrated tamping system before clamping the portafilter for the actual coffee brewing. In this case, you only have to make the correct dosage on your external grinder yourself. The machine can then no longer help you with the dosing. In short: No, you cannot change the bean container when it is full. Yes, you can use externally ground coffee.

Thanks for the answer! I imagine that I would use the pre-programmed amount of water for 2 cups in the morning for the crème or lungo (with a coarser grind) and the pre-programmed amount of water for 1 cup during the day for the espressos (with a finer grind). This means that I would only have to manually change the grind and the filter insert between the two types of coffee (unless I was making a double espresso). It is particularly important to me that the programmed amount of water on button 1 remains stored even if the grind level for button 2 is changed and vice versa.
