This espresso machine is also equipped with Saeco's Brew System and removable brew group for easy cleaning and long lasting durability. With all of the preprogrammed functions of this unit you can create any espresso drink or combination you can think of, from americanos to lattes, all with the push of the touch LCD display and some quick work with your Pannarello steam wand. The Talea Touch Plus is equipped with a ceramic grinder that has 5 different adjustments and is quiet and guaranteed long lasting, but if you decide to use pre-ground coffee there is a bypass coffee doser.

The Bottom Line on the Saeco Talea Touch
This is absolutely one of Saeco's best mid price range espresso machines, it has absolutely every feature you could think of, everything from the adjustable grinder to the touch screen interface. For a coffee loving family this unit would be excellent, it would even work for a small office, but it is not meant to be used in a commercial setting. This unit is the best of the Talea line, and the next step down would be the Talea Giro Plus, the differences being that the Giro plus does not include the automatic standby, automatic cleaning cycle, or the active cup warmer. The next step above this unit is the Syntia Focus which an all metal housing versus this unit's ABS plastic housing, but the Focus does not have a cup warmer, or the automatic coffee cleaning cycle.
