When it comes to coffee machines, the Krups EA9010 is undeniably superior. With superiority comes a rather large price tag, ranging from between $1500 and $2000. However, the EA9010 is not like your average coffee machine. The word average isn’t a part of its vocabulary. This coffee machine boasts fantastic features to bring you barista style coffee into your own home. It weighs in at around 25 lbs, and the dimensions are 22.76 x 14.92 x 19.53 inches, so it can sit proudly on your countertop and impress your guests. The best coffee machines are designed with precision and excellence, so it’s no surprise the Krups EA9010 is manufactured in France, one of the most coffee-appreciative countries in the world.

As far as appearance goes, the Krups EA9010 coffee machine is relatively simple but radiates quality.  This coffee machine has a silver finish with a black top and is exceptionally well designed. The first-class exterior is complemented by a color LCD touchscreen, meaning it’s easy to use but also oozes style. You can tell by the look of it that the EA9010 is a stylish coffee machine. Although the proof is in the pudding, Krups are one of the top manufacturers of small kitchen appliances and have created an exceptional looking coffee machine in the EA9010. While it’s not gold-plated or decorated with diamonds, the overall design for this classy coffee machine has been created to present a stylish, high-quality, durable and extremely versatile model.

The LCD color touchscreen is also a great feature on the Krups EA9010, as you can efficiently operate it and see the different functions, and it’s not something that not all coffee machines have. This again highlights the top-quality manufacturing that has gone into the EA9010 coffee machine that has been made with the customer in mind.

There are so many features included on the Krups EA9010 coffee machine, so it’s difficult to know where to start! Firstly, the EA9010 doesn’t just make one type of coffee. From grinding the coffee beans, itself to creating the perfect cappuccino or latte thanks to its two-step milk frothing technology, it’s worth exploring the options the EA9010 gives you. There are 17 pre-programmed choices of coffee, so there’s bound to be one to suit you, a different one for morning, afternoon and evening if you wish! Some further drink selections you could make from the easy-use touchscreen are espresso, long black, flat white and a café au lait. This coffee machine also has the added benefit of adding your usual drinks to the favorites option, so it remembers your preferred drink strength. As you can see, the Krups EA9010 is extremely versatile and gives the user so much customization to create that perfect cup of coffee. What’s more, the EA9010 coffee machine also offers the option to provide hot water without the coffee bit so that you can make tea and hot cocoa or any other drink of your choice.

The great thing about the Krups EA9010 coffee machine is that it’s fully automatic, so all you have to do is make sure the coffee and milk are in the machine, push the button, and the coffee machine does the rest. Although it can take a couple of minutes to make the coffee for you, it’s coffee shop quality and saves you going to the coffee shop to wait in line for a coffee when you can get on that tastes as good in quality right in your own home.

In addition to all the coffee choices available to you, the Krups EA9010 coffee machine also includes a state-of-the-art metal conical burr grinder, meaning it grinds coffee beans to the fineness needed for high-quality coffees. The only minor point to make about the grinder is that it’s relatively noisy, but this is to be expected and is relatively insignificant, given the fact that you would own a coffee machine that grinds coffee beans itself!

Regarding water heat quality, the Krups EA9010 coffee machine benefits from Krups’ own Compact Thermoblock System, meaning the water is heated efficiently and maintained at that temperature, so you’ll always have a hot coffee waiting for you that’s rich in flavor. Finally, EA9010 can accommodate different size mugs up to about 6 inches in height, so while it’s adaptable, it won’t necessarily fit things like travel mugs underneath. This coffee machine's primary purpose is to create great tasting coffee, so why not enjoy the variety of options from the comfort of your kitchen. The Krups EA9010 coffee machine is jam-packed with features and is unlike many coffee machines on the market in that it automatically creates different types of coffee for you in just one click.

As would be expected with the Krups EA9010 coffee machine, it’s effortless to clean. This coffee machine comes with an automatic cleaning system, so will never have to worry about cleaning the inside of this machine, thanks to Krups’ advanced cleaning procedure. Once you have used the Krups EA9010 coffee machine for a milk-based drink, the machine uses an automatic steam nozzle for easy cleaning. The EA9010 displays when it needs to be cleaned, and it does show this function quite regularly. While this procedure does take a little time to complete, you will have peace of mind knowing that the coffee machine is perfectly clean ready for its next use. There also lots of additional accessories available to boost the cleaning of the Krups EA9010, for example cleaning tablets and descale powder. This can help maintain the quality cleaning already implemented by Krups, as the EA9010 has been made with durability in mind, so it’s built to last for a long time.

One of the many benefits of the Krups EA9010 is how easy it is to use. Don’t be put off by the technical features of this coffee machine, they are simple to navigate, and everything you need to function is displayed right at the front of the machine. The water tank can take a 56 oz capacity and the coffee bean container can hold nearly 9 oz of coffee, so these will last a decent amount of time before having to be replaced and are perfect for large coffee orders.

The LCD touchscreen feature is also a massive benefit of the EA9010 to aid in its ease of use, as anyone can easily see the display and understand how to use it. Although this coffee machine doesn’t come with the ability to pre-program a coffee to be made up to 24 hours in advance, the sheer amount of coffee options you have to choose from makes up for lack of this feature. Quite simply, the Krups EA9010 coffee machine is so easy to use because once you have decided on the type of coffee you want, you press a button and it’s made for you, just like that.

Overall, the Krups EA9010 coffee machine is a fantastic machine that brings barista style coffee into your own home. The hefty price tag might put some people off, but if you’re a coffee connoisseur, or you appreciate high-quality coffee and want to forgo those trips to the coffee shop to get it, this is the machine for you. The Krups EA9010 is fantastically versatile and gives you the power of customization. If you’re willing to buy this coffee machine as an investment, its magnificence won’t let you down.
