Thank you to all supporters, liker’s and subscribers.
Any questions, just comment, always happy to help.
Thanks for the review I just ordered mine via the link, good luck with the channel.
Thanks Adam - confident you will be happy with this machine - I’m just enjoying a lunchtime coffee right now.
@@lorabuddyandrob2290 Arrived yesterday and we love it so thanks again guys have a great weekend.☕
At last an honest review.
Very few and far between.
Thank you.
As someone else says it's a rebranded beko.and Cheaper.cannot go far wrong.
Good luck with your channel.
Thanks for the positive comment.
I hope, if you go for it, you’re happy.
I still love mine.
Thanks, I have same machine but didn’t know how to use it!😊
Your machine looks exactly like the one I’ve just ordered but the one I ordered is a Dualit. I like this one because of the simplicity. I was going to buy an all singing all dancing De’longhi but I just want a decent cup of coffee.
Would have ordered through the link had I not watched this as a guide video after already having bought it. Great video Rob, thank you!
Thanks for the super-positive comment. It is appreciated.
Great video
Thanks David. Really appreciated
Fantastic video..
Thanks mark.
thank you Scott from new zealand
Very welcome.
Hi, we've just come across your video! Just wanted to say thank you very much for your positive review! We're happy to hear you're enjoying your Scott Simplissimo & Milk coffee machine. Would it be ok if we shared your review on our social media channels? Thank you! 😁
Hi there. Huge thank to you for making this machine. I really am so happy with my purchase. You guys have done a great job.
Not issue at all sharing the review. Hope it helps you.
Rob.
@@lorabuddyandrob2290 Thank you so much, that's great to hear! 😁
Hi Rob, The Scott Slassimo looks like a rebranded Beco CEG5311X £350.00+ and Smeg Lavazza £600.00+, some companies do this to increase there revenues etc and is a common practice with TV's, like LG and Sony but much harder to tell the difference so for me the Slassimo is a no brainer because given its similarity its more than likely that the electronics and heating element etc will be the same as the more expensive options with just the branding and hight adjustable dispenser cover thats different to throw people off the sent so thanks for the review and good luck with the channel
Wasn't particularly looking but found another rebranded version: Espressione Concierge so i am guessing that there could also be more
Hey there Tav, Sorry for the slow response. Copy or not, Scott have done a good job, I now have two of these. Home and work. I couldn’t be happier with the machine to be honest. Thanks for the best wishes. Rob
Hi Rob, thank you for your reply and your review because i am also now a proud owner of a Scott Slassimo, happy as Larry and saved a few quid as well.
Hi mate, thanks for the great video. Mine didn’t come with a milk jug. Noting your comments regarding the jug. What is the height of the jug please so I can buy the same sized one?
Really sorry for the slow reply, missed this comment. It’s, 125mm tall. Hope this helps.
Interested to know if the steam wand expels any water before the steam comes out? My experience with other machines is that about 25-30ml of water comes out and ruins the flavor of the milk.
Hey there, When you press the steam button the machine runs a initial priming cycle where 20ml-ish of water is ejected, this takes a few seconds. The machine will then beep indicating it’s ready, you can lower the nozzle into your milk and press the button again. This will start the steam and no water comes out.
Hi nice video thanks it’s the first one I’ve watched I think on the Scott brand, it looks nice I’m too looking for a bean to cup machine and also no coffee expert. I like the look and colour of the smeg ones and their size but they seem overly priced. Then looked at the Beko ones and then came across your video 👍. Could you advise how deep it is from back to front? Thanks again.
Thank you for the compliment - the machine is 39.5cm deep. This was the smallest bean-to-cup machine that I could find.
@@lorabuddyandrob2290 Hi sorry I forgot to ask, does that machine let you program/set how much water is used for the coffee and hot water buttons? Cheers
@@beaniemac83 Good Afternoon, sadly it doesn't allow you to program the amount of water used. The only two options are large or small. Rob
I took a look at the manual and they mention:
The desired volume of Espresso, Lungo and hot water can be memorised, ranging from 25ml to 250ml.
1. To make your coffee (either Espresso or Lungo) or dispense hot water, press and hold the corresponding button. Hold the button while the appliance is making the drink.
2. When the drink reaches your desired volume, release the button. Two beep sounds will be heard, indicating that the volume is memorised. You can get the exact volume of coffee every time during future use.
3. Reset the volume to factory settings by selecting default settings (see FURTHER SETTINGS - III. MODE SELECTION)
I was almost going to disregard this machine completely after hearing the water was a set amount :O
We have one of these machines and love the way it works BUT the espresso is very watery as the amount of coffee it uses per shot is too little in our opinion.
Thanks for the comment. You should contact Scott. I am sure they will help with this.
I don’t have any issues like this. I hope you manage to get this sorted.
Anyone know if theres anyway to clean the grinder section without taking this thing apart? 😅
I’ll be honest. I haven’t found a way. I clean from the underside and on top.
I bought one of these and it's great. Very happy with it.
BUT...
The instructions miss out a step in the descaling process. On page 26 under Descaling after step 6 where you press the Power and Espresso button together and they both flash you THEN have to press the Espresso button to actually start the process. First time I tried descaling both the descaling light and the Espresso light sat there for an hour flashing without anything happening!
There should be a Step 6 and a half: Press the Espresso button.
Thanks for detail Karl. I do love this machine.
Never noticed the descaled issue. Will look at for this.
How can I make the coffee taste more like coffee instead of water? Halfway making the coffee, it's like water is coming out instead of coffee.
Hey there Cathy. Try adjusting the grind settings slightly. If this doesn’t work for you reach out to the team at Scott. I have asked them a couple of questions and they have been great.
@@lorabuddyandrob2290 thank you for responding. I have set the grinding to both finest and coarsest, no difference, still very watery. Have changed the volume of the water as well, the coffee is still watery.
Have reached out to Scott team UK since over here in Belgium, there is no response at all and no manual in Dutch.
How can you make the machine turn itself off after the coffee is made?
Unfortunately since this is a bean to cup, it cannot make that mouthful thick syrup espresso, like a pure espresso machine. The best you can do is set the grind to finest and accept that.
@@svenabend360 thank you. We have now changed to lungo volume to 110 ml and we add an espresso to the lungo. That gets us the desired amount and feel we like. We have set the grinding to the finest setting.
The factory kicks out this generic machine and then badges up as Beko, Tchibo, Smeg, Scott and more probably.
Thanks. I did not suspect this until recently when I saw a similar looking beko.
I'm not a coffee expert either, but I can tell you that is NOT a decent crema.
I can’t argue. I’ve had varying success with altering the grinding. Feel I’m getting a much better crema now. For me all that matters is the great improvement over nespresso at this price point.
milk in coffee is like milk in wine....
Fair comment. But in the mornings, this is the way for me.
