Saeco Talea Giro/Ring

[AlanD]

Hi,

does anyone here own a Saeco coffee machine? In particular the Talea Giro or Ring versions?

They look good, but since it''s a brand I have never hear of here in Ireland, I wanted to do some research on it before taking the plunge. It looks good, but reviews are thin on the ground and so cold hard reviews are hard to find.

Your help would be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Alan.

I have the Giro. It is a nice machine, easy to use and relatively fast. I would suggest that you use one of the stronger \"aroma\" settings (2 or 3). Essentially this is the amount of coffee that is ground, slightly more than 7 grams, more like 8.5 or 10. For whatever reason, the 1 setting just delivers a weak shot. Otherwise, very nice!
