Saeco Vienna Plus Super Automatic 4038 and 4045
This popular, feature rich espresso machine uses a high power 1250w motor, plus it has a built in grinder for coffee beans so you are not limited to only using pre-ground coffee. Finding a coffee bean grinder in a machine in the Vienna’s price band (well under $1000) is really good since they are normally only found in much more pricey automatic expresso machines.
The Vienna Super’s bean holder gives you 12 ounces (300 gram) bean holding capacity and…and this is very good, lets you program how fine you’d like it to ground the beans, a feature generally only offered by much more expensive machines. Having a bean grinder that you can set the grind level on means you will get perfect fresh ground coffee to match your personal taste. Plus you can set it to produce different espresso size shots meaning you get to control how much is made each time.
The result is that with the Vienna Plus Super Automatic you get total digital control! A often quoted favorite feature of this Saeco Expresso machine is it’s looks and design. It is stainless steel with an extremely stylish and modern look that fits in very well with both modern and rustic kitchens.
Saeco Xelsis SS Automatic
The Xelsis SS, like the Vienna is a stainless steel Saeco espresso machine but one of their more highly priced models. As with the Vienna Super Plus model, it allows you to grind fresh beans and brew them fresh right away for a perfect cup. Plus, the Xelsis has many professional features, for instance, you can set the strength level at a per cup basis when making several at a time, this means it is a great family or dinner party expresso machine.
You can define settings for upto 6 different drinks, meaning the brewing process for fresh espresso is very quick, professional cafe like in fact. An example of how useful this can be is that you may program 6 drink options and save them, that’s great for a family or regular social group. Overall the Xelsis is a beautiful, sleek, top of the range model, it looks great yet functions even better. If you have budget, well worth your consideration.
Saeco Via Venezia Traditional
If you do not feel ready the automatic Saeco espresso machine experience yet then the classical model which uses a pump is one to consider. The Via Venezia has a digital display that’s easy to use and see your settings on. It is a popular model for lower budgets to but keep in mind that it does not come with a grinder so you can only use pre-ground coffee.
The Saeco coffee makers you look at depend on what you want from such a machine and of course, your budget. Machines such as the Xelsis SS basically offer you true luxury, delicious top restaurant espresso and cappuccino in your own kitchen whereas traditional machines such as the Via Venezia give you great quality expresso with simple brewing, while a machine like the Vienna sits in the middle and is ideal for those needing or wanting the power of an automatic with great quality coffee but without the cost of the Xelsis.
