NEW AromaFresh II Melitta Coffee Machine Review

AromaFresh II by Melitta is a new coffee maker that promises to deliver the perfect cup of coffee every time. As an avid coffee enthusiast, I couldn’t resist trying out this sleek and modern-looking machine, and I must say, I’m impressed.

First and foremost, the design of the AromaFresh II is elegant and compact, making it a great addition to any kitchen countertop. Its elegant black finish gives it a premium look, and the intuitive control panel is easy to navigate, even for those who are not tech-savvy. The water reservoir is conveniently transparent, allowing you to monitor the water level effortlessly.

Key features:

• The brewing strength of your coffee is really easy to set to your individual taste from mild, to medium and strong.
• The integrated ceramic grinder with eleven different grinding fineness settings forms the heart of the new AromaFresh filter coffee machine. You can set the grinding fineness from fine to coarse according to your personal taste – for particularly aromatic filter coffee.
• The new Melitta® AromaFresh optimally balances the contact time of water and coffee. As a result, the coffee flavour is always guaranteed regardless of the preparation quantity (from 2 to 10 cups).
• The transparent water tank has a clearly legible quantity scale at the front and is easy to fill
• The grinder can be switched off if necessary. Then you can make coffee with pre-ground coffee.
• The new AromaFresh features a practical timer function, with which you can plan your coffee enjoyment in advance. Simply set the required time, fill the water tank and insert the coffee filter. The filter coffee machine switches on at the programmed time and starts the grinding and brewing process automatically.
• To ensure that your coffee machine works perfectly, has a long life and gives you the best coffee flavour, you need to descale your coffee machine on a regular basis. The new AromaFresh filter coffee machine gives you 3-in-1 limescale protection with programmable water hardness, a limescale indicator and a practical, automatic descaling program. The practical LCD display tells you when it is time to descale the machine.

The removable filter insert, and the glass jug are dishwasher safe. The grinding fineness regulator can also be removed making it easy to clean the grinder. The QR code on the bean container lid takes you to a video that shows you how to make cleaning even easier.

One of the standout features of the AromaFresh II is its built-in grinder. This feature truly sets it apart from other coffee makers in the market. The aroma and flavour of freshly ground coffee beans are unparalleled, and the adjustable grinder settings let you choose the coarseness of your grind, catering to individual preferences. Whether you prefer a strong espresso or a smooth drip coffee, the AromaFresh II has you covered.

Using the AromaFresh II is a breeze. The instructions are clear, and the setup is hassle-free. The machine offers various brewing options, including a standard brew, bold brew, and a programmable 24-hour timer. This timer is a game-changer for early risers like me, as I can wake up to the delightful aroma of freshly brewed coffee every morning.

The coffee produced by the AromaFresh II is simply outstanding. The precise temperature control ensures that the coffee is brewed at the ideal temperature, resulting in a rich and flavourful cup. Moreover, the showerhead-style water dispersion system ensures even saturation of the coffee grounds, extracting the maximum flavour from them.

Cleaning the AromaFresh II is also effortless. The removable parts are dishwasher-safe, and the machine’s self-cleaning function is a time-saver. Additionally, the included water filter contributes to the overall cleanliness and purity of the coffee.

In conclusion, the AromaFresh II by Melitta is a top-notch coffee maker that lives up to its promises. The combination of a built-in grinder, user-friendly features, and the ability to brew a fantastic cup of coffee make it a must-have for all coffee lovers. While it may be on the higher end of the price range, the investment is worth every penny for the superior coffee experience it provides.
