Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Briel ES62AF L'Expresso Automatic Cadiz Espresso MachineCustomer Review: Nice little machine, till it breaks and you need service. Summary: 1 StarsIf I had written this review 6 months ago, I would have rated this machine 5 stars, I loved it! Made excellent Latte's and was easy to operate. But then it started dripping out of the steam value, the day I discovered a plastic seal completely melted off the machine. I got in touch with the service agency Electra-Craft Inc. However when my "repaired" machine came back 3 weeks later, it was covered in ice, as they hadn't drained it properly after testing. The cover was warped, the entire pump section had exploded with ice forcing the front plate completely off hanging on only by the wires. 3 weeks of calls,emails and promises of replacement only to be changed a day later. I received my broken machine back still with the top plate broken and the front somehow magically reattached - even though all the chrome and plastic screw mounts were completely cracked...the best part, now they claim it was never really broken just wet! Nice little machine until it breaks and you need service.
Description of Briel ES62AF L'Expresso Automatic Cadiz Espresso MachineA recent addition to the Briel line of "Maxi" machines, the Cadiz espresso machine offers a sleek, stainless steel look exterior with added features such as Briel's patented Auto Espresso Flow and a warming plate for pre-heating cups. The Cadiz is an impressive machine that makes it easy for anyone to create an authentic espresso, cappuccino or latte. Other features include: constant 15 bar pump pressure that produces a savory espresso with a perfect crema topping, an ESE adapted for use with ground coffee or single-serve coffee pods with filter holder and filter basket, a Turbo Jet frother that produces a dry steam, a patented Crema Master filter, an AquaStop No-Drip System that helps prevent dripping and a stainless steel boiler. More features: lights that indicate when it's ready for brewing and frothing, two thermostats that regulate the coffee cycle and steaming process, push button switches, a large, removable water reservoir system, a removable overflow tray for easy cleanup and a built-in coffee tamper and measuring spoon included. Briel's Cadiz espresso machine is backed by the company's 30-plus years in the coffee business, and it shows--this model's designed to present caf?-quality espresso and cappuccino to the home user. To get this high quality, the Cadiz has a number of extraordinary features, starting with its Auto Espresso Flow system. This system lets you set the coffee strength according to taste, from a stronger, Italian-style short cup to a larger, less robust brew. The espresso is brewed at the required 190 degrees F, and the machine has 15 bars of pump pressure. And it's speedy, brewing two cups in about 35 seconds. It also makes good cappuccino, because of its included frothing wand. Some other nice features include a patented Cremaker filter, which provides a richer crema on each espresso, and a removable water tank. In shining stainless steel and sturdy black plastic, this machine won't shame any counter. It has 1,260 watts of power and measures 9-3/4 by 11-1/4 by 9-3/4 inches (length by height by depth). --A.J. RathbunEditor's note: This item may arrive with water inside from the manufacturer's pressure test. This is a normal occurrence and doesn't point to a problem with the machine.
