    • perfect cup of cafe au lait
    • Super easy maintenance, I personally just fill the included carafe with half water, half vinegar pour it in boiler then close cap, run it once and then run it twice more with just plain water to remove vinegar smell and that has ensured a fresh smelling tasting cup of coffee every time since
    • The frother works with and without the the black plastic piece, but I prefer to use it without it (one less thing to clean, same result).Overall, we're enjoying our cup of espresso and/or capuccino every morning but will buy a bigger machine when this one dies because you are really limited to 2 cups if you drink double-espressos like we do, i.e. one each.

    • Also clean-up at the end while my almost perfect cafe mcoha sat in my perfect large cup helps cool it off
