From the Manufacturer

models of fully automatic machines. Call us to find out which model will better

Caffe Charisma is the crème de la creme of the Saeco fully automatic family of
machines. It is packed with features making it the most advanced machine
available on the market today, in a small and compact footprint.
Add water, whole beans, push the button, and you have true perfection.
Espresso and coffee with a thick, creamy, golden crema, and a flavor that will
make you feel like you are floating in the clouds. The Caffe Charisma grinds
whole beans, doses, tamps, and extracts espresso, then the used coffee grounds
are ejected into an internal waste box. Fantastic espresso without the fuss and
mess of the old-style, traditional models.
Easy Clean System
The brew group is where your coffee is tamped, brewed, and dispensed. The
patented brew group can be taken out for convenient rinsing. The brew group
compartment is completely separated from the electrical compartment, fully
accessible, and can easily be kept hygienically clean. That is proprietary Saeco
technology and one of the things that has made Saeco world leader in
superautomatic coffee machines.
Saeco Aroma System
To optimize the flavor extraction, a special program step injects a little
hot water into the freshly ground coffee, in order to soak it and let it swell
up. This is done just before the actual brew cycle commences.
Opti-Dose
Here you will find a lever that will allow you to adjust the amount of coffee
to be ground for each individual cup. Adjust it from 6 grams (- sign) to 9 grams
(+ sign) to change the strength of the coffee.
Rapid-Steam
The Rapid-Steam feature allows you to froth and brew without waiting or
changing the temperature. Make cappuccinos and lattes in an instant!
