After too many trips to Starbucks, I unfortunately have become too choosy about my java. The basic cup of coffee just won't do. Thus began the search for the least expensive espresso machine that made a decent shot of espresso.
.... when I happened upon the Krups Espremio mismarked at a local retailer .... I couldn't resist trying it.
The first 3 cups were no better than coffee. I later realized that was because I was using basic grocery store brand coffee. Once I tried using genuine, properly ground espresso beans, Starbucks had met their match. If you purchase coffee beans from Starbucks, they will ground them for you at no charge, as well. The Starbucks brand is a bit bitter in my opinion, so I am eager to branch out to other brands of espresso.As for the Krups Espremio itself... I'm happy with it. It doesn't leak. It is easy to keep clean. It heats quickly. The frother is great. It makes a nice head of crema.
HOWEVER, as you'll already know, it only makes one single serving at a time. It does complicate making a double latte, but I've made four singles in a decent amount of time.
.... BUT REMEMBER TO USE THE RIGHT COFFEE.

There is a clear echo here, so to simply quote the experience of another reviewer, "after two months the steamer ceased to function properly and steam came out of the espresso head instead."Rather than paying to ship the unit to Krups myself---clearly, the company cannot afford to pay shipping on the thousands of these cheaply made units---I hauled the Krups FNP112-42 down to my workshop and found that the hose to the steamer had detached.Well, fixing that problem did not render the FNP112-42 usable, for now it simply exhaled steam in great plumes like a bull in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Cleaning the unit per the directions from Krups did nothing whatsoever. Nor did shaking it robustly or inserting various instruments into the nonworking nozzles serve any purpose, but at least I felt a bit better.Turns out the only thing getting steamed was me. . .I'm going to buy a good espresso maker this year for Christmas and I can promise you that it will not have the word Krups emblazoned on it.

As a Starbucks employee of almost 2 years at my college... I know how to brew espresso and properly make drinks. My roommates got this for me as a Christmas present at the Field Days Sale so I could make coffee drinks for all of our late night study sessions. After about 2 months of use... the steamer ceased to function properly and steam came out of the espresso head instead. I contacted a service advisor at Krups' website and it turns out that I would have to ship the machine to the nearest service center in Illinois on my own dime. No thank you! I'll find something better.
