Krups Nespresso EA9010 Review

The super-automatic Krups EA9010 creates stunning espresso shots and high-quality milk cafe drinks that steam at the push of one button. Its rock-star price tag and absence of manual controls are likely to disappoint home barista hobbyists though.

Its simplicity and speed make it a great option for those who wish to to quickly get up in the morning. It also has a small footprint and is affordable.

1. Easy to use

If you're looking for a coffee pod machine that is easy to use, there are plenty of options available. Krups Nespresso Inissia is one of our favorites. This compact machine is perfect for those who are single or Nespresso novices because it's easy to set up and use. It also produces a thick crema and can fill large mugs. It's also compatible with L'OR Nespresso BaristaXXL pods, which can hold more than twice the amount of coffee as the smaller capsules.

The Inissia has a small tank which can produce anywhere from four to six espressos and luongos without needing to be replenished. It's also easy to clean, and it has a convenient place to store capsules that have been used. You can also stop the process to make an instant cup of coffee prior to going to work or school. But be aware that if you skip this step, your coffee might be slightly weaker than it would be if you had waiting for the brewing cycle to complete.

Krups Nespresso Essenza Mini EA81 is another compact machine which makes delicious coffee. It's the smallest machine in the OriginalLine range, and it offers two sizes of coffee that include lungo and espresso. It's easy to operate and features an elegant modern design that's sure to look nice on your counter. It comes with a removable drip tray cake container and a water tank. It also has a steam nozzle for making cappuccinos.

The tank for water in the Essenza Mini is small, so you may have to refill it often. It also has a lower capacity for brewing hot water than other models that are in the same price range. It has a built-in conical grinder, which is a great feature for anyone who wants to avoid the cost of buying an additional coffee grinder. It's also easy to clean and maintain, and can easily be descaled with a special descaling powder. This model is available in various colors and will add style to any kitchen.

2. Easy to clean

Cleaning your Nespresso machine will ensure that you enjoy the best espresso. A build-up can affect the quality and flow of your coffee. Caffeine & Tea cleaning capsules help prevent this and ensure that the coffee maker is running smoothly. Utilizing these capsules each 30 cups or once a month will ensure you have a great cup of coffee, and keep your Nespresso machine clean and healthy.

Basic Nespresso machines, such as the Mini and Essenza are easy to clean, as they only move water or coffee through their guts. The Lattissima line, however, allows milk to be included in the equation. This can lead to lots of froth which requires cleaning. The EA9010 is an appliance that makes cleaning this process simple and quick. The front door of the machine opens to reveal a massive bucket that holds the spent grounds of espresso, also known as "pucks". This drawer is easy to take out and dispose of and another drawer is home to Krups' special cleaner.

These cleaners can be dissolving in water and then run through the machine prior to a cleaning cycle. After the cleaning cycle wash the tank and all other parts with clean water. Once the water tank is empty, a descaler may be added, following the instructions by the manual for your machine. Descaling is the process of removing mineral deposits from the thermoblock and heating element which is the primary cause of the poor performance of your machine.

After you've descaled the machine, you can start making fresh coffee. Clean the machine after each use to avoid a build-up of coffee grounds or oil. If you own separate milk containers or a steam wand, make sure to empty them and clean them after each use. It's also a good idea to run a cleaning routine once or twice a month, which will help keep your machine working efficiently and avoid the build-up of scale. Your machine will alert you if you do not perform a cleaning cycle. You don't need to begin the cycle right away when the warning appears but you should do it within a short time.

3. Easy to maintain

This is a great option if you are looking for a dishwasher that is easy to maintain. It's also among the few machines we've tested that automatically drains and rinses after every use. This reduces the accumulation of minerals and gives fresh, clean tasting. It also offers a selection of drink settings and is compatible with Nespresso's new L'OR Barista XXL capsules that contain more coffee than standard Nespresso pods. It does have some drawbacks like its high cost and inconsistent frothing.

The Pixie is one of the smallest, least expensive Nespresso models that are available. It's a great choice to anyone who is seeking a single-serve coffee machine. Its sleek design and low-profile water tank, as well as its internal drink library make it ideal for smaller spaces. It also lets you access many of the most popular cafe drinks like lattes and capspuccinos with the press of a button. Its only significant downside is that it doesn't come with milk frothers, which can be a problem for home baristas.

This machine isn't easy to maintain, but it's still an excellent option for anyone who wants an instant and delicious cup of coffee. It's compact and can store up to 19 capsules inside its internal container. It is compatible with Nespresso's recycling program, and is able to be easily refilled. It's compatible with L'OR Barista XXL capsules, which provide more coffee than regular Nespresso pods for nespresso machine.

After each use, you can maintain your Krups nespresso machine clean by cleaning the removable parts with hot water and mild detergent. It is also recommended to empty the capsule bin and drip tray frequently. You'll also have to remove the scale periodically and the user manual should include the free water hardness test strip to let you know when it's time.

Descale your capsules at the time of about 1000 capsules. You may have to descale your machine more frequently depending on the region with hard water. The machine's alarm system will let you know it's time for a descaling cycle, and the process is fast and fairly easy.

4. Easy to store

This Krups Nespresso is compact and small, making it easy to store. It also requires little maintenance, including emptying the capsule bin and rinsing the drip tray every now and then. It's an excellent choice for people who are sharing a home with others and do not want to have to worry about maintaining separate machines. It uses capsules from Nespresso and provides a limited selection of beverages, including espresso and black coffee. It is recommended to clean the machine after every 1,000 capsules. You can find a descaling solution at most retailers that sell Nespresso products, or you can purchase it from the manufacturer directly.

This Nespresso capsule machine is simple to clean due to the capsule container that is removable and the absence of a frothing brush. The compact size makes it ideal for smaller spaces. Compatible with Nespresso Original capsules. It's not as powerful as other models, but it can still make a delicious cup of espresso or coffee.

The model is easy to use, just like many other nespresso mini coffee machine models. Its minimalist design and one top-facing button control everything from powering on to brewing your beverage. It's also one of the smallest and cheapest machines available. It's only compatible with Nespresso capsules and will only make black espresso. It's not the best choice for those who prefer cappuccino, latte, or macchiato.
