Krups Intuition Preference+ EA875E10 Semi-automatic Espresso Machine with Grinder, Grey

The KRUPS EA875E10 Intuition Preference+ is a grey countertop semi-automatic espresso machine designed for preparing a range of drinks at home. Ground coffee is the main input for the brewing process. A 15-bar pump and a thermoblock heating system handle coffee extraction. The machine can brew two cups at the same time via its dual spouts. Drinks include espresso, coffee, cappuccino, latte, latte macchiato, lungo, americano, ristretto, and hot milk.

Operation is handled through a colour touchscreen that gives access to 15 drink programmes. Three coffee-strength settings, three temperature settings, and adjustable water volume let users tailor their drinks. An automatic flow stop controls the brew volume during dispensing. For milk-based drinks, the machine uses a milk pipe rather than a built-in tank, with a built-in frother for milk preparation. Maintenance includes self-cleaning and calc-clean functions, along with an anti-scale system and a water hardness selector. The plastic housing has a removable drip tray for everyday use.

• 3 L removable water tank.

• Adjustable coffee spout and cup stand height to suit different cup sizes.
