Every morning we
wake up with an espresso and today the machine hit 6000 brews. We bought
the Bosch benvenuto B30 in 2006 and it still works like a champ.
One of the best features is that one doesn’t have to clean the grinder all the time like in other models. It really allows the owner to enjoy what you bought the machine for, a good hot nice shot of espresso. All you need to do is to once in a while drop a cleaning tablet into a hole and let the machine do the "tough" job. If you want to buy an espresso maker for the sake of cleaning it, then this machine is not for you.
This brings me to another topic. Even though the initial expense for this machine was higher than other models, the cost per shot which it the 1299.- / 6000 = 0.22, which is negligible and beats a shot at Starbucks anytime.
I can't wait until tomorrow morning.
