Krups Nespresso EA9010 Review

The Krups EA9010 is a super-automatic machine that can make excellent shots of espresso and top quality milk cafe drinks that steam at the push of an button. The high cost and absence of manual controls might disappoint home barista enthusiasts.

Its speed and simplicity make it the ideal option for those who wish to be able to get up quickly in the morning. It is also small and affordable.

1. Easy to use

There are a variety of options when you're looking for a coffee machine that is user-friendly. Krups nespresso pod coffee machines Inissia is one of our top picks. This compact machine is ideal for those who are single or Nespresso novices because it's easy to set up and use. It also produces a dense crema that can fill large mugs. Another advantage is that it's compatible with L'OR Barista XXL capsules. These can hold up to two times the amount of coffee as the smaller capsules.

The Inissia comes with small tanks that can make four to six espressos and luongos without having to be filled. It is also easy to clean and has a handy location for the used capsules. You can also stop the process of brewing, which can be ideal if you need to grab a cup of coffee before work or school. You should be aware that when this step is not taken the coffee will be weaker than if it's been brewed properly.

Another alternative is the Krups Nespresso Essenza Mini EA81 which is a smaller machine that makes delicious coffee. It's the smallest machine in the OriginalLine range and comes with two drink sizes that include lungo and espresso. It's easy to operate and has sleek, modern design that will look nice on your counter. It has a removable drip tray, cake container and water tank. It also has steam nozzles to make cappuccinos.

The tank for water in the Essenza Mini is small, which means you'll need to refill it frequently. It also has a lower capacity for brewing hot water than other models in the same price range. It is equipped with a conical grinder, which is a great option for those who don't want to buy a separate one. It is also easy to maintain and clean, and is able to be descaled with the use of a special powder. This model is available in several colors and is a fashionable feature for any kitchen.

2. Easy to clean

A clean Nespresso machine is a vital element to enjoying the most delicious cup of coffee that you can. Sludge buildup can seriously affect the quality and flow of your coffee. Regular cleaning using a Caffeine & Tea Cleaning Capsule helps prevent this and ensures that your coffee machine is running smoothly. Use these capsules once a month or every 30 cups to ensure you get a perfect cup and keep your Nespresso machine healthy.

Nespresso machines that use only coffee or water like the Mini or Essenza, are easy to clean. However, the Lattissima range invites milk into the equation, and this can lead to lots of residue and froth that requires cleaning. The EA9010 is an appliance that makes this process simple and quick. The front door of the machine opens up to reveal a large, oversized bucket which holds the unused espresso grounds (also known as "pucks"). It's simple to open and throw this away, while a different drawer houses bottles of a special cleaner produced by Krups.

The cleaners can be dissolved in water, and then put through the machine before undergoing a cleaning process. After the cleaning cycle, rinse the tank and other parts with fresh water. As per the instructions in your machine's manual, you can add a descaler to your water tank once it is empty. Descaling removes mineral deposits from the thermo block and heating element which are a big cause of low performance.

After you've descaled the machine, it's time to start making fresh coffee again. It is essential to clean the machine after each use to prevent the build-up of coffee grounds and oil. If you own a separate milk container or steam wand, empty them and clean them after each use. It's also a good idea to run a cleaning routine every month or once to keep your machine working efficiently and prevent scale build-up. If you do not follow this, your machine will alert you to run a cleaning cycle. The cleaning cycle doesn't have to be executed immediately following the warning, but it must be completed within a brief period of time.

3. Easy to maintain

This is a great option when you're looking for a dishwasher that is easy to maintain. It's also one of the few machines that we tested that drains and rinses itself automatically after every use. This reduces mineral accumulation and ensures a fresh, clean taste. It also comes with a selection of drink settings and is compatible with Nespresso's new L'OR Barista XXL capsules which have more coffee than standard Nespresso pods. However, it has several drawbacks, like its pricey pricing and erratic frothing performance.

The Pixie is the smallest and least expensive Nespresso model on the market and is a great choice for anyone who wants an affordable single-serve coffee maker. Its compact design and low-profile water tank, as well as its internal drink library make it perfect for small spaces. You can also access the majority of popular cafe drinks like lattes and capspuccinos with one button press. The only drawback is that it does not include a frother. This could be an issue for some baristas at home.

Although this machine isn't the easiest to maintain however, it's a great option for anyone looking to enjoy a quick and delicious coffee. It's compact and can hold up to 19 capsules inside the container it is built into. This makes it simple to refill, and the machine is compatible with Nespresso's recycling program. It also works with L'OR Barista XXL single-serve capsules, which offer more coffee than standard Nespresso pods.

The simplest method to keep your Krups nespresso coffee machine clean is to wipe off the removable parts with hot water and a mild detergent after every use. Then, empty the drip tray and capsule bin regularly. It is also necessary to remove the scale periodically and the user manual should include an easy water hardness test strip to let you know when it's time to empty.

Generally speaking, you'll need to descale after around 1000 capsules. You may have to descale your machine more frequently if you live in a zone with hard water. The machine's automated alarm will notify you when it's time to begin the descaling cycle. It's fast and relatively simple.

4. Easy to store

This Krups Nespresso machine is small and compact, which makes it easy to store. It also requires little maintenance, such as emptying the capsule bin and rinsing the drip tray every now and then. It's an excellent choice for people who are sharing the same home with other people and don't want have to worry about maintaining separate machines. It's made with Nespresso capsules, and has a limited number of beverage options, such as black coffee and espresso. It is recommended to descale the machine every 1,000 capsules. You can buy descaling agents from the manufacturer or most retailers who sell Nespresso.

This Nespresso capsule machine is easy to clean due to the removable capsule container and the absence of a frothing wand. Its small size makes it an ideal choice for small spaces and it's compatible with the Nespresso Original Capsules. It's not as powerful as other models, but it can make delicious espressos or coffee.

The model is easy to use, much like the majority of Nespresso models. Its minimalist design and one top-facing button control everything from powering on to brewing your drink. It's also one of the smallest and least expensive machines available. It's only compatible with Nespresso capsules and can only make black espresso. It's not suitable for people who like cappuccino or latte.

The Krups Vertuo Plus machine is an excellent option if want a Nespresso machine that is simple yet elegantly constructed. It is compatible with Nespresso Barista XXL Capsules. These are larger than regular capsules and can be used to create larger mugs. It's easy to use and set up, making it a good option for those who are new to the world of coffee.

The machine has a large library of drink choices that include popular choices like espresso, americano and a cappuccino. You can even tell it to make a "Red Eye" (regular coffee boosted by two additional espresso shots). The capsules that are used have a slight smell that you can eliminate by placing them in a water bowl. The machine comes with a free recycling bag that can be discarded at participating stores, such as Williams Sonoma and Nespresso boutiques.
