Good sized cup warming tray, with a fill
hatch, so that you don’t have to remove
the tray.
It’s a nice touch, but doesn’t quite work,
as well as I had hoped.
Unfortunately under standard
height kitchen cupboard,
filling via this hole is awkward
and you can’t easily see the
level of the water.
I found myself having to
move the machine out from
under the counter, and then it
was usually easier to remove
the cup tray and fill it.
A piece of perforated non-slip
matting is essential to stop
the tray getting scratched. I
would like to see the
manufacturers supply
something made for the
machine
I loved the no burn steam and water
wands, what a great idea. Also having
the wand mounted on a ball-joint, as they
should be, is much nicer.
Drawing water is good, by far the best of
any machine I have reviewed for the
steadiness and volume of flow! (probably
due to the vertically mounted boiler)
The true value is more than being able to move them. After
steaming milk, I realised how easy the milk wand is to clean!!
The milk doesn’t bake on.
The shape of the water wand could be improved as there is
only one position where the steam doesn’t burn your hand
when drawing water.
Drip tray is nicely finished and doesn’t
have the unfinished look of the
millennium, the extra steel front panel
hides any edges
In addition it’s a good size
and can be removed without
removing the cup tray above.
This makes emptying much
easier.
The magnetic water level switch in the
tank.
This is a great innovation, just much nicer than the old
platform with springs and it doesn’t rattle! A huge
improvement that has also proved very accurate.
This should be the standard on all coffee machines!
There is an overload reset switch on the
top of the boiler which is (consumer
resettable),
I am not sure whether this is a good thing or not. If it trips out,
I think it’s always advisable to return the machine to a service
centre for a proper check.
It will however prevent damage and reduce the costs of any
repair as there is no old style fuseable link to replace. The
fusable links also take a little time to heat and break the
circuit and this could allow more damage to occurr!
An access port at the bottom of the
machine so the heating element can be
removed easily.
It would have been so easy to have forgotten this, making
heating element replacement a difficult job. As it is Quick Mills
continual attention to detail with the Andreja Premium has
ensured this won’t be a problem.
