The modern world dictates an extremely high pace of life, in order to always remain active and vigorous, many people drink coffee. Others love this drink for its taste. This is what made coffee the most popular drink in the world, of which there are a whole variety, as well as its preparation methods. One of them is the use of coffee machines that are in great demand among coffee lovers. Manufacturer Krups and its devices called Dolce gusto For a long time already they have a strong position in the market of household appliances.

Aggregates Dolce gusto produced by a swiss transnational firm Nestle, which began its own activities in 1866, and soon the products of this company began to be actively sold throughout Europe, which gave a broad basis for the expansion of production. Already since the 1900s Nestle Several divisions appeared in the USA, Great Britain, Spain, thanks to which goods began to be sold all over the world. This predetermined the success of the brand, which was associated with the subsequent boom in production that had begun. After the Second World War, in the history of the brand, a systematic expansion of both its product range and its production in the form of construction of new factories and plants can be traced, including in such countries as: Brazil, Singapore and Russia.

Since some time Nestle has a subsidiary Krupswhich became involved in the direct production of capsule coffee machines Nescafe Dolce Gusto. To popularize this line of household appliances, the company has repeatedly attracted American stars and Hollywood actors to advertise products, which led to a sharp rise in sales of products.

Devices Nescafe Dolce Gusto for a couple of years, gained high popularity among coffee lovers, the reason for this was a whole set of indisputable advantages that a coffee machine has. For a start it is worth noting that the manufacturer took care of customers and created a completely automated assembly. Special modes of making coffee are provided with ease of use of the device, you can easily understand its management by reading the instructions or watching a couple of themed videos.

The device is distinguished by a high level of security - using it, getting burned is simply unrealistic, since the section where the capsule is located is removable, and it became easy to remove the capsule from the coffee machine without the risk of getting a burn. As you can see, practicality is the main characteristic of the units of this brand, because the cupboard is also a container for dripping.

However, the most important and, one might say, the key feature of the coffee machine is the fact that it is not necessary to carry out periodic cleaning and cleaning equipment from coffee residues and household waste. This is due to the fact that in the preparation of the drink used one-time air-tight capsules. After serving the drink, it is thrown away. Thanks to this quality, the coffee machine will be convenient for both office and home.

A pleasant impression is made by a neat, modern and stylish design of the device.that will allow to enter it in any kitchen interior.Moreover, it is very compact, so it will not take up much space in the dining area, but will appeal to all coffee lovers due to the small size, quality of coffee produced, speed and quiet operation.

The great news is that household appliances Dolce gusto supports not only the preparation of coffee, but also other drinks - cocoa and tea. In addition, their fortress can be easily adjusted. Along with multiple advantages in terms of ease of operation, speed of work, fashionable design, there is another criterion that plays a large role in the selection of household appliances - price. It is very democratic and starts from 5,000 rubles, which is not so much for a coffee machine, especially comparing it with counterparts from other brands.

However, there are also negative features of this technique.. They are not so numerous, but very significant, so it is impossible not to illuminate them. Since Dolce Gusto is not a professional unit for the preparation of beverages, but is aimed at the so-called mass market.

• Hence the first obvious minus of the device.: the quality of coffee is slightly lower than that of a professional coffee machine. It can be said that this is a taste, but many users have noted this.

• The inability to make coffee from other manufacturers This is perhaps the main complaint of buyers, because by buying only what the Nescafe Dolce Gusto brand offers, people become limited in their choice of drinks. Such a characteristic trick of marketers, aimed at actually making people buy products of a certain company, has long gained popularity among manufacturers and is specific to most of them.
• Here you can also add a considerable cost of capsules. For the sake of fairness, we note that all these capsules provide decent taste.

• The last significant drawback is a small volume., allowing for one to prepare a couple of small cups. Of course, it is inconvenient, you can try to solve it in one way - pour more water, but this will lead to the coffee being diluted. It is hardly tasty, so there are big doubts that such a coffee machine will suit lovers of strong drink.

Taking care of maximum automation, the manufacturer has created a line of coffee machines, working on the basis of capsular action. In order to prepare a drink, you need to buy a special capsule, which will be discussed below. So, first cold purified water is poured into the container, preferably bottled. The coffee capsule must be placed in a special socket that clamps the impermeable capsule with a lever. After selecting the cooking program, the coating is punctured with a needle, after which boiling water passes through the film.

In all Dolce Gusto units, the principle of operation is the same., but depending on the model, additional individual modes may appear, which significantly expand the functionality of the device. Coffee machines can easily cope with a variety of tasks, for example, if you need to add milk or cream to a drink, you just need to remove the capsule with coffee and replace it with dairy. After a minimum time, the coffee will be ready,and the owner will only need to remove and discard the used packaging. It is important that you do not need to clean and wash the device.

The line of vehicles from Krups Dolce Gusto has the following models:

• Piccolo and Dolce Gusto Genio combined into one category, because they have similar characteristics, such as small dimensions and a wide range of colors, which will allow the coffee machine to easily fit into any interior. It is important to understand that because of its compactness, this model is more suitable for a family of two or three people than a large family. Despite the size, the quality of work does not get any worse - on the contrary, the unit can make a cup of coffee in a couple of moments, which will delight its owners with a pleasant and rich taste.

• Oblo is a wide functional and set of modesin, thanks to which it is possible to prepare both cold and hot drinks, which distinguishes this device from its analogs, both within the line itself Dolce gustoand among competing products.

• Circolo stands out for its futuristic design, representing a circle, which is already stated in the name of the model. Also compactness, and the presence of the function of controlling the strength of the drink are the indisputable advantages of this type of coffee machines.

These devices are more advanced than the above models. Each unit of this type of household appliances is equipped with many additional functions that are not provided in the basic versions of equipment.
