Krups XP5280 - Espresso Machine, Precise Tamp Programmable Reviews
| 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful  Works well after 4 months, This review is from: Krups XP5280 - Espresso Machine, Precise Tamp Programmable I purchased this machine at the recommendation of a knowledgeable salesperson at a local cooking store called Great News (Pacific Beach). I really liked the programmable feature, after returning a different model that did not have the preset for espresso pour duration. I also like the "precise tamp" feature as it saves a step and works well. I find that by using a Cuisinart Conical Burr grinder to freshly grind the beans(I use illy beans exclusively), and by following the directions for proper priming(1st use), cleaning, and operation - the resulting espresso and latte drinks are excellent. It consistently turns out great tasting espresso with generous amounts of "crema", and steams milk well(I recommend getting an instant read thermometer for steamed milk which indicates proper heating temerature between 150 and 170 degrees - mine is from a company called CDN). One minor issue is the steam nozzle. Mine did break after about 4 months - one of the clips that hold the nozzle to the...

After carefully reading reviews and checking out brands, features and prices, I chose the Krups XP5280. My son is a professional barista so I had him come and give me some lessons on making lattes. Long story short, he approved the machine & I began to use it. Everything went fine after a bit of practice, but I found the milk steamer/foamer wand awkward to use. After about 8 or 10 uses, I asked my son to check it again. I noticed the milk seemed watery and I couldn't get much foam. It seemed as though the steamer was shooting water into the milk & diluting it (?). During disassembly of the steamer/foamer wand, we discovered that a piece of plastic along the shaft had cracked & broken (disassembly was done by the book). My son suggested that the wand was likely broken before we took it apart and thus the excessive water/steam.Going back over more reviews, I see most owners complained about the wand breaking. I went ahead & ordered a new one to...

Too bad, no review ever mentioned the fact that, and this was confirmed to me by Krups Customer Service, you need to wait at least 15 minutes between successive cups of espresso, even longer if you used the steam wand! If you don't wait this long the water is diverted to the drip tray instead of the filter holder. WHAT!! Before this was confirmed by Krups itself I could only think I had a defective unit. Upon hearing that this is "normal", I promptly returned it to the seller, of course at my own expense. I didn't like that the machine couldn't be used under cabinets that don't give you enough space to fully pull out the reservoir which needs to be pulled out upwards. But I did like the Krups automatic tamping, the set amount (programmable) amount of espresso delivered, and the puck ejector in the filter holder. I only wished someone had mentioned in a review the problem... Read more |
