As the topic title says, Ive given up trying to make a decent coffee with the EM4800.
The coffee is inconsistent in flavour (we use it mainly for cappucinos). I cant say Ive managed to make a decent coffee with it in over 12 months of playing around with it. Thats why my wife wants a Saeco automatic. At least the coffee will be consistently mediocre without the hassle of cleaning a portafilter, etc.
Currently, we make most coffee with a press (plunger) - the wife has it white, I prefer black. Occasionally I use a Moka pot for myself but the coffee made with it needs sugar (I dont usually have sugar in my coffee).
Perhaps I just dont have the patience to learn to make coffee by trial and error. I thought of doing a course but thought it may be a waste of time when one only has a Sunbeam machine.
We go out for coffee every day - its easier to get someone else to make it and it usually tastes better. Cripes, even the McDonalds auto machine coffee is better (their McCafe stuff is usually bad).
