5 stars – By Ed Santos (Orlando, FL United States)

I have (now you can say had!!) the Saeco Primea Touch Plus. I mainly make cappucinos. With the Primea, I had issues with the milk temperature (too cold) and no milk foam. Also, the cleanup was a pain. I decided to try the Xelsis and I am glad that I did. So far I have had the machine for about two weeks and it is a winner. The milk comes out hot and the foam is perfect (looks like micro-foam done by a wand). It is easy to maintain and has worked flawless. The only negative is that the drip tray is kind of small but is it very quick and easy to empty. If you are looking for a quick and easy cappucino this machine is for you.

I’ve had this machine for a few months and I now look forward to waking up everyday. Before drab boring dark coffee please pull the trigger.. But now Every Time I see it do its thing ,I’m amazed by its engineering. I just changed the setting to the lowest milk, strongest coffee w/ longest pour and its nice and strong. I got mine for a killer deal on eBay try to look around although good luck trying to pay under 2k. Is it worth it 2k to change your life I think so. Everyday I’m sipping the perfect cappuccino thinking to myself life is good.

This machine is terrific. Expensive, but terrific. The features are convenient and very well thought out. It can be customized for 6 different users – each with 9 drinks. Most importantly, it makes great, very hot coffee. I have had this now for 4 months and I could not be happier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful – By Allard This review is for the Gaggia Accademia Espresso Machine

Got this unit today and totally fell in love Like the other reviewer said, it’s great how the milk system runs seperately. There are settings you can tweak for every type of coffee it makes. For example, you can change the amount of milk you want in your Latte, the temperature of the coffee, how strong it is, how much coffee you want, etc. You can also set how fine it should grind the beans. But don’t let all these options and tweakability put you off. In fact, once you plugin the power cord and turn it on and fill it with water and beans, all you need to do is push a single button to make a cup of coffee of your choice, using the factory settings !

Of course the coffee tastes delicious, but a Jura can make delicious coffee as well. Although one big difference is that the Jura doesn’t make very hot cappucino. Like said, with the Gaggia you can raise the temperature for the coffee, when you make cappucino, so the cappucino is hotter than the Jura (which is in my opinion too cold), although it’s still not *really* hot, but I guess there’s no espresso machine out there that makes real hot cappucino. Anyway, in short, the main advantages of this machine are the tweakability and ease of use. Love it !

Just bought this and really enjoy it. Very easy to use and maintain and whats cool is that the milk runs seperately through the machine so it has a self cleaner so you dont have to mess with it. Looks good as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this machine, wish the milk was hotter – By A. Fischer (Sunnyvale, CA) – This review is for the Gaggia Accademia Espresso Machine

I have had this machine almost 3 months now, and it has gotten twice daily use (some days 3-4) since then. I think it’s likely the best super-auto out there. My complaints are the same as other reviewers:

* The milk doesn’t get quite hot enough using the automatic steaming/frothing carafe. I find if I use hot water (from the machine) and warm my cup for at least a couple minutes before making my drink, it does help the drink stay warmer longer. I purchased this from another website, and their sales guy recommended heating the milk slightly (to take the chill off) before making the drink, but I just don’t have the patience to do that.
* I have to empty the internal drip tray at least once a day, sometimes more. The machine’s auto-rinse features when it starts up and goes to sleep fills this container easily. It would have been nice to have a larger drip tray for this purpose.

One feature I wish I had is the ability to make a drink on the fly, using the cappuccino setting, without changing my programming. There are days I want my caps a little drier, but if I go through the on-the-fly programming option, it changes my drink to default to the new settings. I would like to be able to brew my coffee and froth the milk using the auto settings without it affecting any programming. I haven’t seen that this is possible in the manual, though I suppose it’s possible I’m missing that option.

Things I love:

* I can froth my own milk! I don’t often want to, but sometimes I do get a wild hair and want to practice making the perfect froth. Most super-autos don’t have a separate frothing wand, I love that this has that option.
* It’s so very adjustable, from the amount of coffee ground to the length of the pull to the amount of milk and temperature of both the shot and the milk.
* The milk carafe makes a great foam – better than I can do myself! Most auto-frothing devices I’ve tried in the past give me a lot of bubbles and not much of the good micro-foam. This does a pretty great job.
* The carafe is pretty easy to clean. I don’t take mine all the way apart, but when I need to clean it well (every 2 days, I’d say), I just put some water and dish soap in there, shake it around, scrub gently and then run clear water through the ‘straw’ and upper portion. It cleans out well without fussing with it much.
* Unlike another reviewer, I do find the machine pretty sturdy in both appearance and feel. It doesn’t feel plastic-y to me at all, and it’s very easy to keep looking clean and shiny.

All in all, I’m really pleased with my purchase. When you spend this kind of money for a piece of equipment you hope for the best, but I was still skeptical it would be all I wanted. But it is! I love it and I have no regrets. Here’s hoping it lasts for years to come.
