I was so excited to try my new Magnifica Evo Espresso Machine. I have a houseful of coffee/expresso lovers, so I new it would be a big hit. At first, I was a little intimidated about setting it up and using it for the first time, but the directions were very clear and easy to follow. I especially appreciate the labeled icons on the top that allow you to quickly choose the type of brew you want. It really is as easy as pushing a few buttons to get a perfect cup of expresso every time. It even has a steam frother that allows you to make both water and milk based coffee drinks as desired. It is such a step up from the usual drip coffee machine I was currently using. Now, everyone in the house can have the coffee drink they want right on the spot. It is like having a specialty coffee shop right in your own kitchen!
