Krups XP 3440 Home Espresso Machine - Cappuccino

It`s my usual morning routing.
*
This is not an advertisement. I don`t sell anything. I like to take pictures, shoot videos and make coffee with my home espresso machine. I try latte art, but the result is not so good so far.

Video was taken with Pentax K1 II + Pentax SMC FA 43mm f/ 1.9

[@YevgeniiKondratiuk]

Cat looks pissed lol so cute

Cat doesn't quite understand this bizarre hooman ritual. Add some mackerel and it'll be fine.

Quisiera saber si al terminar la preparación, donde colocamos el café molido este queda con mucha agua

[@YevgeniiKondratiuk]

lo más probable es que la molienda fuera demasiado fina

What do your espresso grounds look like after (I use the large filter and let the espresso run til the end. I like an Americano-style espresso drink)? I just got this machine and mine are really watery. Cute cat, btw.

[@YevgeniiKondratiuk]

Pregrinded coffee often too coarse, it works well for many home espresso machine, but not for krups xp 3440. I buy coffee beans from local coffee shop and ask to grind like for pro espresso machine (maybe a little bit coarser), so level of grind is much finer. Last thing in that case - not to tamper too hard, because water won`t be able to pass through coffee. Thanks, btw :-)

[@pc-sound-legacy]

Are you satisfied with the machine? I just buy one as I got a good deal (118€).

[@YevgeniiKondratiuk]

I have been using it for over 4 years. No problem. Slow but flexible and powerful enough for the home.

Hi, thnx for the video! 👍🏻 I have the same machine for a week or two now, but I have difficulty to get the right foam structure while frotting the milk. Do you have tips?

[@YevgeniiKondratiuk]

Hi, thanks you! I hope it will help: - pour milk into the glass (or something like that for frothing) about half the volume of the glass - turn on the coffee machine for steam heating after heating the coffee machine, lower the steamer a little into the milk and turn on the steam - keep the steamer slightly submerged in the milk in such a way that foam will form, but there would not be too large bubbles - if the steamer is correctly positioned in milk - milk will begin to grow in size, try to keep the steamer in the same position relative to milk by gradually lowering the container down - control the temperature of the milk by hand - it should not burn - if the milk seems to be not warm enough - you can lower the steamer below into the milk and heat it

@@YevgeniiKondratiuk thank you for the fast reply👏🏻 I think my method is about the same as yours, but maybe I need some more practice 😉😄 Thanks for the helpful instructions, I'm going to buy loads of milk tomorrow for practicing 🥴💪🏻😄

Hi I bought this machine a few days ago And after brewing when I processed to take the Portafilter out it just explodes Did this ever happened to you If so, how did you fix it?

[@YevgeniiKondratiuk]

Hi, try less fine grind or do not tamper so hard or both

[@youniskhan14]

Hello, I could be more helpful if you ask more specific question, making coffee is complex process. You also can watch another videos on this channel, maybe find your answers.
