Coffee machine Siemens EQ.6 PLUS
 

 

Updated Siemens EQ.6 PLUS series?

In 2017, SIEMENS presented an update for the most used group of EQ coffee machines. The novelties have received a brand new term for the Siemens EQ.6 plus series. All changes are hidden behind the term "Plus ".Externally, the EQ and EQ Plus series are difficult to distinguish.

In the off state, the differences between the 2 number of coffee machines are just the grill of the pallet. In the Siemens EQ6 plus series, the grille of the drip tray with frequent longitudinal slots rather than the rare perpendicular ones.
On the control panel, the amount of drinks for cooking remained exactly the same 8, but in the series "Plus" they changed their combination:

  • Espresso
  • Espresso macchiato (new item)
  • Coffee cream (lungo)
  • Cappuccino
  • Latte macchiato (by just how, this is actually the largest recipe in this machine, it may pour as much as 400 ml)
  • Latte
  • Whipped milk
  • Special (additional) drinks - this item has replaced the "heated water ".Behind him lies a different group of drinks, with respect to the particular type of the series. And this is the main difference involving the modifications within the Siemens EQ.6 Plus line between them.

Added key "favorites", which enables you to save and operate on the preparation of several individual drinks.

You can program as much as 4 of your personal recipes. The recipe is created on the foundation of among the standard drinks.

Differences modifications Siemens EQ 6 Plus

S100 and S300:

  • Siemens TE651209RW EQ.6 plus s100. The fundamental model of the series.
    Pump 15 bar, there's no function of cooking two milk and coffee drinks at exactly the same time. In special drinks only hot water. One drink in the "favorites" menu.
    Objectively, s100 is the absolute most senseless model when comparing to the old EQ.6 series.
  • Siemens TE653311RW EQ.6 plus s300.
    Added additional recipes for special drinks - Hot milk, Flat White and Americano. Preparation Flat White first brewed a part of espresso, and it added whipped milk

S400 and S500:

  • Siemens TE654319RW EQ.6 plus s400. OneTouch DoubleCup function is added - two milk drinks at exactly the same time.
  • Siemens TE655203RW EQ.6 plus s500. New pump as in older versions at 19-bar. Added another recipe for special drinks - Cortados Cafe. Another point in the "elected ".

S700:

  • Siemens TE657313RW EQ.6 plus s700 This model is the cornerstone of the s500 with the addition of two recipes in special drinks - Kleiner Brauner and a coffee pot. You are able to choose just how many servings of coffee cream can make the machine one after another in a line, 4 or 6. Added backlighting cups. The big event of warning concerning the use of grains and water is added.

AutoMilk Clean - automatic quick cleaning of the milk circuit with steam impact after every cooking.

Another noteworthy improvement is the introduction of a fast flushing of the milk circuit. The coffee maker does flushing it yourself after every milk drink.
But this feature is never as effective while the quick cleanings from Delonghi, Saeco, Jura or Melitta.

Technically, the updated plus versions of Siemens are no different from the previous number of coffee machines.

Ceramic coffee grinder with 6 examples of grinding adjustment, 1500 W flow-through thermoblock, removable brewing device with pre-wetting function for additional disclosure of aroma of grains, 15 or 19 bar pump. The amount of tanks also didn't change: water by 1.7 liters, grains by 300 grams, cakes by 10-12 servings.

Adjusting the brewing temperature (3 degrees), adjusting the dispenser for glasses as much as 15 cm high, working together with ground coffee, washing the coffee path when switched on / off, built-in cleaning programs.

Known nuances

• Heated water comes from exactly the same nozzles as milk.

• The setting of the ratio of milk and coffee is realized not obvious in Siemens, the quantity of milk is indicated as a portion of the full total share of the drink, while the total volume of the drink is adjusted by a separate item.

• Siemens EQ 6 Plus is blocked if you may not spend quite a long time removing the scale after the equipment has highlighted this requirement on the screen.

• Automatic rinse program when switching off, on

Summary of review

The Siemens EQ.6 Plus coffee machines certainly are a medium German class that received the correct cappuccino program in the shape of Flat White. But younger version of s100 is devoid of it, so I believe.

Of the additional improvements - quick automatic cleaning of the cappuccinator with steam and a selection of selected drinks, including from 1 to 4, with respect to the modification.
