These fully automatic machines are sort of the coffee equivalent of quartz watches - no soul. The obsessively clean Swiss like them because they contain the coffee grinds inside the machine.

I agree, I would not touch one of these autos with a 3.048metre pole ;)

I bought a VBM Levetta a couple of months back, best thing I have ever done, real easy to use compared to the thermoblock sunbeams and breville machines I used before this, now just have to go for a decent grinder upgrade, a mazzer or M4D, need to go look at few to decide.

and as for the auto machines, I still haven't come across one that can make coffee as good as the manual machines, but I guess they are ok in a busy workplace.

When the Swiss aren't making precision timepieces......

they're refining their coffee machines with similar accuracy.

many top quality kee parts are exclusively being manufactured in
Switzerland, thanks to the same top micro precision technologies as
watch parts.
