The Eletta Explore Fully Automatic Espresso Machine with Cold Brew is a special treat that I look forward to every morning.  My favorite feature is the self-cleaning function, and for how many different options for coffee (both hot and cold brew I might add), the machine is surprisingly user friendly.  Each option can be tweaked according to one's taste.  The hot and cold carafes are super easy to use and easy to clean.  The carafes are the only part of the machine that require hand cleaning, although it is "rinsed" after each use.  My only complaint, and it is a small one, is that the machine doesn't get the coffee super hot.  I like my coffee almost scalding, so it is no surprise that I have to put my coffee in the microwave after brewing.  No guests that have used the machine have mentioned the temperature, so it is probably a personal preference.  But this machine is a dream and such a treat!
