grounds in the tray and not he hopper if any make it it is not compact but

This is actually the Saeco Minuto Focus (HD877x), i believe. The Saeco
Minuto (HD876x) does not have the coffee features, it’s espresso only.

TXS for a great channel, your videos are great consumer information. Any
plans of putting a video of Philips Saeco Moltio HD8769/01? I got a Saeco
Talea Ring where the electronics messed up. Had plans to switch to
Delonghi, but after a visit to Norway’s largest consumer electronics
warehouse I changed my mind. I honestly didn’t expect to find people who
knew what they were selling, but got great info there. They told me the
quality had greatly improved after Phillips bought Saeco, soo….

machine… …purple monkey dishwasher

Pretty awesome, but not as awesome as the Saeco Menudo that has Ricky
Martin hop out of the dregs box to sing Livin La Vida Loca while brewing.

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

We don’t have access to that machine in the US yet, so I can’t do a review
… we’ll definitely do so if/when it comes to the US! I agree that there
have been some QA improvements to the machines since Philips got involved,
although they’re still designed / manufactured by Saeco at their factory in
Italy. – Kat

I am wanting to invest in an espresso machine. My preferred price range
would be $500-600 total for a machine and grinder. How would that money be
best spent? And is a super automatic an option at this price point? p.s.
specific products would be awesome!!

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Of course! – Kat

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

I say say-co, some people say sah-ayco and still others say see-ay-co. I
suspect the middle one may be more true to the Italian pronunciation. – Kat

theoharis2000 says:

Yeah it’s cool,but Gail,15 bars of pressure is a lot of pressure.It’s about
5 to 8 bars.I think.But the 15 bar thing is fake.

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Nope, it’s not fake; they are usually 15 – 19 BAR pressure pumps that will
settle down into the 9 BAR of pressure ideal for espresso. – Kat

Cody Marshall says:

So I’m sure this has been asked before, but how are you supposed to
pronounce Saeco? I’ve heard you guys say it both ways.

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

You could do something like the Saeco Xsmall or Vienna Plus for the
superautos; for a nice combo setup, the Breville Barista Express is good;
finally, for separate units, check out the Breville Infuser and Smart
Grinder. – Kat

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

For a purple monkey dishwasher? I’m not sure; I’ve yet to meet one 😉 – Kat

Andrew Dickinson says:

This looks awesome. Thanks for posting this.

Seattle Coffee Gear says:

Agreed. – Kat
