'taste' and 'aroma' are consistently used
when describing the perfect cup.

The sweet aroma and taste of the perfect
coffee is largely due to the correct
combination of temperature and pressure
during the brewing process. The Thermoblock
heating system ensures the water is at the
correct temperature, so that the full coffee
flavour is extracted.
Secondly, the combination of the 15 BAR
pump, dual-wall filter and stabilising baffle
ensures the correct pressure at which the
liquid espresso is released from the spout.
The flow should consist of both liquid and
cream. This cream is commonly known as the
'crema'. The perfect crema should be thick
and stable and preserve the coffee flavour,
aroma and temperature.
