Good with the bad

published

This machine was good to begin with. Made good coffee and quickly. Flavours were nice and a good variety but over time they changed receipes and all became bitter. It was sometimes tricky to clean and often had the pods getting stuck. Went through two machines before switching to another brand.

Date PurchasedApr 2015

First coffee machine and it has exceeded all of our expectations

published

Tried a variety of coffees,Chai Latte and Chocolate.All great flavours .The machine is so easy to operate and so easy to clean.Have had coffees at friends using a variety of very expensive machines and none of them were as good as the Expressi. Wish we had purchased one years ago!

Date PurchasedFeb 2016

great product!

published

great coffee- and love the hot chocolate. Cant be a bit tricky to clean, butis generally OK. havent had any real problems with it, apart from the occasional pod jam, which hapnes when you dont empty the tray properly. The tray itself also jams sometimes as well, but one can put up with it. Would love for it to be a bigger space under the spout to put bigger mugs under

Going back to instant

published

This new machine has trouble pumping the water through the pods or the pods themselves are at fault, I have voiced my concerns to the shops with varying degrees of comebacks, like give us the bar code batch number or bring it Back if more than half fail.
The coffee is nice but lately I have removed the coffee so the plastic can be recycled if they can and the coffee grinds go on the garden, with this in mind not buying pods at all would save that effort

Great little machine for a reasonable price.. could be improved though.

published

The basic coffee flavours and range of strengths is great. Not so sure about a couple of the more 'exotic' ones. Very easy machine to use & keep clean! I disagree that the coffee is hot. I always have to nuke it for about 30-40 seconds. Reasonable design and performance for the price. Would love it if their coffee pods were authentic and biodegradable though.

Love it, so easy to use and clean.

Coffee and tea tastes great and is hot. Easy to use and clean and can go in dishwasher if needed. Plenty of choice of strength of capsules for coffee and also have tea. Usually plenty of stock when l go to purchase more capsules. Does not leave any marks on the cups like some teas do.

Great machine

published

This machine has been fantastic, it has never missed a beat so easy to use and quick. There is a fantastic range of strengths of coffee available and really nice range of hot chocolate capsules also. We also bought the milk frother at the same time. We have only used the Aldi capsules in it but I have been told others fit. I descale my machine about every 3-4 months with the Descaler and it works really well.

Date PurchasedMar 2015

I use this machine when travelling in the place of my expresso machi e.

published

Once I had mastered the use of tne machine I have found it makes a good cup of coffee. I like the size of the machine and that is easily transported in our camper van . I enjoy being able to customise the flavour intensity to individual tastes. The machine is easy to fill and takes very little effort to clean.

Disappointed with operation

published

Love the coffee, but after only one or two cups most of the coffee ends up in the used pod receptacle. Tried all options like cleaning reprogramming but still reverts to this. Very frustrating because we love the coffee and this is our second machine. First one was no problem at all.

Value & great priced capsules

published

Tried lots of machines & their capsules since the revolution @ work. Aldi's far outshines them all and they regularly have bulk but capsule deals. Easier to fill with water, easy capsule removal & the coffee is exceptional in taste. Highly recommend to anyone thinking of investing in barrista style coffee @ home.

Love this machine.

So easy to use, great range and affordable coffee capsules
Our first one we purchased (2015 model) stopped working after 12 months
We just took it back and it was replaced with the 2016 model so was very happy
The design and colours are great, fit in with any kitchen decor and doesnt take up to much room

Excellent Coffee Value

published

The Espressi has worked constantly for almost 2 years and is so simple to use and clean. The only important thing is to remember to run just water through after making hot chocolate or if leaving it without use. The capsules are good value and there is a great range of coffees.

Great coffee

published

I bought this machine last year. I am quite happy with the taste of coffee. It is great especially in the mornings. I bought it from ALDI at a good price too. It is really easy to learn and how to make a coffee you love. I just have some problems with its cleaning that is why I gave 4 star otherwise, great machine.

Love it

Coffee is great. We changed from the Woolworths brand machine to this about two years ago and love it! Easy to clean, operate and have had no problems with it. Coffee pods are a reasonable price. Coffee tastes good, the chai latte is great too.
I really can't fault this machine.

WOW. This is superbe. Wholeheartedly recommended!

published

The aroma of the coffee is only bettered by the taste. It sure tastes as good as it smells.
Together with the milk frother we are absolutely impressed. In less than a month it had paid for itself.
No more second rate coffees, or waiting on inefficient service.
The fact that it costs so much less than other models makes me want to sing.
The instructions could be improved upon.

Love the quick real coffee in the morning

published

The pods are great with a huge variety of strengths and styles. It is a stylish modern well designed compact machine which fits well in our motorhome and on kitchen bench. Very happy with the no brainer functions. Coffee comes out hot as well, not luke warm like some machines. Great value for money. Love Aldi

You get what you pay for!

I'd give Aldi 9/10 for the taste of their 'pods' but the machine is not made to last. We only use it 3 days out of 7 but the older model only lasted 10 months. The 'new' version has done better lasting 12 months but it's into the bin now. It only half fills a cup before sending the rest into the empty capsule container. Pods also get jammed and can't be extracted. We're done with the Expressi !! So much for the 2 year Guarantee, it's worthless.

If it is less than two years old it has warranty so take it back to store, if you don't have the receipt then call caffitaly .
If it's out of warranty then it's dead. Cost more to repair than new one

Expressi Machine 2015 Edition

I have an aldi expressi machine, purchased less than four months ago, the only button that works is the rinse button. I can no longer make a cup of coffee with one press of a button. I have to press the rinse button about five time to get a full cup. Anyone know a fix for this or should I just return?

The idea of these machines is for making lattes or cappuccino which is why it only dispenses a small amount of coffee, I suggest pressing the low button first, then put your pod in and press the button once again.
