Every coffee machine is as unique as the coffee beans they brew. To find the best Siemens fully automatic coffee maker for your needs, it’s important to consider your own coffee preferences as well as your kitchen. To help you make the right choice, let this buyer’s guide for coffee makers test your considerations. It covers the following key questions.

Freestanding vs built-in coffee machine: Which is best for me?

The key factor when deciding between a freestanding or built-in coffee machine is the space it will be placed in. Freestanding machines become a design element as much as a functional appliance. Built-in machines, meanwhile, blend into the space to create a seamless look.

Freestanding coffee machines

Because these models are usually displayed prominently, they’re the right choice if you’re looking for flexibility, outstanding design options and state-of-the-art engineering. Experience coffee tailored to your taste with the Siemens EQ range. Choose from entry-level to fully networked espresso/coffee machines.

Built-in coffee machines

If you want to create a personal kitchen café that seamlessly integrates with your existing appliances, go for built-in. Their compact dimensions make it easy to fit and install in your kitchen, and they suit homes with cabinet space. With its quality materials, a built-in creates a visual accent and pairs perfectly with other Siemens built-in appliances.

Which milk system is best?

A coffee machine with a milk system expands your coffee options beyond a simple Americano. It also makes preparing café-style drinks easier. Adding milk creates a creamier texture, giving you a satisfying smoothness. Milk foam also creates a textural difference, so every sip is a great one.

Milk nozzle

If you prefer a simple yet creamy milk foam to complement your coffee, the milk nozzle does the job. It can directly steam the milk in your cup. Once you have your desired foam, just add your espresso shot and create the perfect Latte Macchiato.

Integrated milk container

Your machine comes with an integrated milk container so you can make a variety of delicious coffee-based beverages. You can also detach it and place it in your refrigerator to keep the milk cool and fresh for your next flat white.

Cappuccinatore

The Cappuccinatore is an external milk solution that you can use with any milk container. Just take the tube and directly place it in your milk carton. Now you can create barista-quality mocha, cappuccino, or latte macchiato in just a few minutes.

How do I achieve the best taste for my coffee?

Every cup of coffee is different – even if they use the same coffee bean, water, and milk. But one thing you can be sure of is that with a Siemens coffee machine, your coffee will always have the best flavour and aroma.

What innovative features and services does Siemens offer?

Whichever coffee machine model you choose, you’ll always have a perfect cup of coffee. This is possible thanks to innovative features that efficiently extract all flavours and aromas from your coffee beans.

What else should I consider?

What size coffee machine fits in my kitchen?

There’s a Siemens coffee machine for every kitchen. Choose the one that fits your space perfectly. Our models start at 38.3cm x 25.1cm x 43.3cm. Siemens also has compact automatic espresso machines for smaller homes or flats. These have a smaller footprint: a bean container with a capacity of about 250 grams, and a water tank with a maximum capacity of two litres. And instead of an integrated milk container, they often have a milk tube.

How easy is it to operate the coffee machine and prepare an individualised coffee?

We designed our coffee machines to be as easy to use as possible. With our simple and convenient user interfaces, barista quality coffee is just a button away. The intuitive coffeeSelect Display gives you a selection of international coffee and milk specialties that can be accessed directly just by touching the sensor controls.

The newest models also offer a brilliant full touch display combined with a unique operating system. The 5-inch full touch iSelect Display with its touch & slide functionality makes it incredibly simple. Just swipe through your machine’s menu and choose a drink.

You can also get your favourites on demand. Save your personal preferences and find it in the “Favourites Section.” Choose your individual strength, size, temperature, and the amount of milk, and then save it as your favourite beverage. Next time, you can just select and wait.

How much energy does a coffee machine use?

Sustainability is an important aspect for all Siemens appliances. In contrast to capsule coffee systems, our coffee machines don’t generate any residual waste. And because our appliances are made to the highest standards with quality materials, their durability ensures a long and productive lifespan. The machine also comes with an automatic switch-off feature so it won’t be permanently in stand-by mode. With coffee beans, we encourage our users to support fair trade and sustainable coffee brands. And if you’re looking for milk alternatives, non-dairy options such as soy or oat milk have a much smaller CO2 footprint and can also be used with our machines.

How important is the noise level to me?

Three components in your espresso machine generate the most noise: the grinder, the milk frother, and the mater intake and flow. But because of the superSilent feature, you can enjoy the coffee preparation process in peaceful serenity. Refined engineering and soundproofing significantly reduce the noise your machine produces. Look forward to peaceful mornings with your favourite beverage.

What kind of coffee specialities can I prepare with Siemens fully automated coffee machines?

You can have up to 9 international coffee specialities available direct in your appliance. And if your model has the coffeeWorld feature, you can also get up to 21 different coffee specialities from 10 different countries through the Home Connect app. Found your favourites? Save your customised beverages and easily find them in the “Favorites Section” to make it even easier next time you want a fresh cup.

How easily can I clean a fully automated coffee machine?

Be sure to use BRITA water filter

A water filter doesn’t only help correct the mineral imbalance in your water to give you a better tasting cup of coffee. In the long run, it also decreases limescale deposits in your coffee machine for up to five times less descaling.

autoMilk Clean

Enjoying your coffee is better if you know your device is clean. The autoMilk Clean function is a fully automatic steam cleaning system that activates after every drink. This way, milk residue doesn’t get a chance to develop. This ensures you’ll always have excellent hygiene every time you use your machine.

You can also use your dishwasher

You’ll always have an easy time cleaning the components of your coffee machine. It has some components that can be cleaned in the dishwasher. These include the drip tray, drip plate, coffee ground container, measuring spoon, and the upper and lower parts of the milk system. Note that you cannot place the panel of the drip tray, the cover, the brewing unit, and the water tank and aroma cover in the dishwasher.

Removable brewing unit

For hygienic cleaning the brewing unit is easy to remove, rinse under running water and then replace. This ensures a consistent good taste, and prolongs the lifespan. So you can get back to savouring the pure aroma of the finest coffee specialities.
