Melitta 6707231 Aroma Boy Filter Coffee Machine, 500 W, Beige

Product Information

Small Spaces: The Melitta Aromaboy’s compact design makes it a great fit for small kitchens, studio apartments, dorm rooms, or office spaces with limited countertop area. The main variable I manipulate with the Aromaboy is agitation. After about 20-30 seconds, I give the coffee and water slurry a stir to make sure that all of the water is evenly distributed across the Aromaboy. However, there are other ways to manipulate your brew. You could swirl your brew head. You could even use a different brewer. I heard that you can swap out the default Melitta brewer with another small brewer, such as the Kalita Wave (in its smallest size). There is clear potential for experimentation, but the rules are different than they are with other brewers because you don't pour the water yourself. Welcome to the Redber Guide to Coffee Filter Papers! In this guide we will take you through the history of coffee filter papers, the different types of coffee filter papers and the correct method to use coffee filter papers!

Although you don't get a scoop with the AromaFresh filter coffee machine, you do get a cleaning brush for the grinder. The instruction manual is also easy to follow when it comes to setting up the machine, and parts of it are available online via a QR code, such as the cleaning and maintenance section. However, I couldn't access these as the QR code was too small to scan with my phone camera, which was a little frustrating. Getting started with the AromaFresh II Filter Coffee Machine Coffee, one of the most traded commodities, has wide range of flavours all influenced by different regions, roast, processing, grinding and even brewing. In 1954 coffee was once again revolutionised in Germany. Gottlob Widdman introduced and patented his ‘WigoMat’ instant coffee dripper and this was the birth of the filter machine. The WigoMat was so popular since it was the first coffee brewing method that introduced the idea that water temperature used for brewing should not be boiling and it dramatically improved on the previous taste. In years to follow the Wigomat’s competition increased yet it remained the most popular instant drippers for over 20 years. Enhance the Experience: Consider serving your freshly brewed coffee from the Aromaboy in a pre-warmed mug or cup. Pair your coffee with a delicious breakfast pastry or biscuit for a delightful morning treat. Aside from being capable of making excellent coffee, the Aromaboy has one more interesting design feature: the hotplate. After all of the water has been dispensed, the hotplate keeps your coffee warm. I like this feature because sometimes I do leave coffee for a little bit because I often drink coffee while I am working. Have I used this feature much? Not really. But it's nice to know it is there. And I am sure many people will make use of the hotplate. The hotplate for me sort of makes me feel like I am making and drinking diner coffee, something I am yet to do. Brewing with the AromaboyPour 100ml water in a circular motion, ensuring all grinds are wet, and leave for 1 minute to bloom Making freshly-ground coffee with the AromaFresh II Filter Coffee Machine is straightforward, and the results are fantastic. The integrated ceramic grinder offers eleven different grinding fineness settings. This feature allows you to adjust the grinding fineness based on your preference, ranging from fine to coarse, resulting in a wonderfully aromatic cup of filter coffee. In short, do not dismiss the Aromaboy for being electric. I'm glad I was able to overcome this perspective and take the leap to try out electric coffee brewing. My experience with the Aromaboy Automatic Switch-Off: The Melitta Aromaboy comes with an automatic switch-off feature, adding an extra layer of safety by ensuring the coffee maker turns off after brewing.

While it's true that the AromaFresh II comes with a higher price tag, it's important to consider the value it offers compared to other bean-to-cup filter machines. Additionally, the generous 3-year warranty and Melitta Service Competence guarantee provide peace of mind, ensuring that any potential issues can be repaired or the machine can be replaced. During my testing, I tried four different types of coffee. First, I experimented with a supermarket's brand of Colombian ground coffee. Then I moved on to Italian coffee beans, known for their full-bodied flavour and strength.

It's important to ensure that you set up your machine for either ground coffee or coffee beans. This can be easily done through the LED display. Additionally, you can fine-tune the grinding fineness of your freshly ground coffee using the convenient 'grinding fineness regulator' located at the top of the machine. How I got on with the AromaFresh II Filter Coffee Machine The Aromaboy is an engaging coffee brewer. I find myself looking at the bloom, waiting until enough water has been dispensed before I am ready to stir the brew. I like listening to the gurgle of the coffee brewer as more water is dispensed. I am still unsure how water is heated and dispensed but what I do know is the mechanisms for these features must be clever. The brewer looks simple on the outside but is well-built and, thus, sparks my curiosity. Indeed, using the Aromaboy I have a newfound appreciation for brewing coffee with electric brewers, and an interest in tasting coffees from other brewers. Let me start with the most important quality of any coffee brewing device: its ability to make coffee. I can without a doubt say the Aromaboy is capable of making a great cup of coffee. Like any coffee brewer, you will likely need to experiment at the start to find a recipe that works for you. However, you do not need to spend too much time experimenting to find a recipe that works. Also, you don't need to know too much about coffee to start brewing with the Aromaboy. As long as you have some ground coffee, some water, filter papers, and a basic recipe, you're ready to go.

Do not disregard the capabilities of an electric coffee maker

Coffee Beans: The Melitta Aromaboy works well with medium and dark roasts, which are more forgiving of the slightly lower brewing temperatures. Experiment with different coffee bean origins to find your favorite flavor profile. In addition, I had the opportunity to use artisanal coffee, which is freshly roasted locally. This particular blend consisted of ground coffee sourced from the Americas and roasted coffee beans from Ethiopia.
