Coffee specialities from the SMEG 50's Retro portafilter machine become something very special. The look of the 50s really comes into its own with this machine. The three filter inserts allow you to decide whether you prefer a single espresso or a double espresso. Of course, you can also make coffee with the popular pods. With the descaling indicator, you always know when it's time to descale your portafilter machine. This is essential for unadulterated coffee enjoyment. If the machine is not used for a certain period of time, it switches off automatically. Coffee pods have been on the market for more than 10 years and have many satisfied fans. They consist of two layers of cellulose. A portion of approx. 7 g of coffee powder is embedded between them. Coffee pods made from filter paper can usually be completely composted. The only exceptions are the rather rare versions with a plastic chamber. To use coffee pods, you need a coffee pod machine designed for this purpose. The powerful milk frothing nozzle with its steam makes it particularly easy to prepare wonderfully airy milk froth. So you can make the perfect cappuccino, latte macchiato or one of the many other coffee specialities.

Source: Digitec GalaxusDie Maschine im Fifties-Style lässt sich intuitiv und einfach bedienen. Sie braucht gut 40 Sekunden zum Aufheizen. Die dreistufige Temperatureinstellung zeigt keinen Effekt. Immerhin hat der Espresso in allen Stufen eine angenehme Temperatur. Produziert schnell viel Schaum, der etwas feiner sein könnte. Mitgeliefert sind: Mess?löffel mit Tamper, zwei Siebe.
Retro-Design aus den 50ern mit Dampfhebel und eine einfache Nutzung mit normalen Tassen sind die Besonderheiten des insgesamt besten Mittelklassemodells. Kleine Tücken zeigen sich beim Einsetzen der Filter in den Siebträger.
Auch das Modell ECF01RDEU von Smeg bietet solche Möglichkeiten zur Individualisierung des Espresso. Mit einer Dauer von lediglich 40 s ist diese Kompakt-Siebträgermaschine zudem am schnellsten für die Zubereitung eines Espressos bereit.
