I've been using my saeco talea machine happily now for 4.5 years but it has a water leak from the steaming wand which is annoying the heck out of me so I think it's time for a new shiny machine !
i like the convenience of an auto machine which grinds and makes the coffee for me, mainly because the grinding and war up is just too much hassle for a mum with a 10 month old bub. However I'm happy (in fact prefer) to steam my own milk and pour. Mainly because my experience of auto for others is that they have a million little parts that have to be taken apart and then washed which takes ages when I can quickly jet a steam nozzle and wash out a mug. I will make anywhere between 3 and 6 coffees a day for me and hubby so it gets a fair workout and washing the milk carafe bits and bobs each time is too time consuming.
So any recommendations ? I'm happy to spend a bit to get a good machine as I want it to last and make as good a coffee as possible in an auto machine.
