• • Pros
    • Stoked On Sliders: Maybe Our Coffee Love Has Us Biased, But Dialing In Your Drink Parameters By The Milliliter Is An Experience We Won’T Soon Forget. Control Like This Is Usually Reserved For Semi-Automatic Setups.
    • Milk, Mastered: Hygiesteam Is Convenient And Addresses A Lot Of Our Cleaning Concerns, But What We’Re Most Excited For Is The Silky Microfoam The Xelsis Makes. Arguably, This Is The Best Superautomatic Milk We’Ve Seen Yet.
    • Premium Feel: Small Details Like Etched Buttons, An Illuminated Water Tank, And A Fitted Gasket At The Bean Hopper Showcase The Careful Development The Xelsis Has Been Through.
    • Saeco Specs: While The Xelsis Is A Big Departure From Saeco’S Other Espresso Machines, Certain Features Like Aquaclean Filtration And User-Accessible Internals Keep It In The Family.
  • Cons
    • Full-Sized: The Xelsis Is Big For A Superautomatic, Make Sure To Check Your Kitchen For Space Requirements.
    • Long Shot: Our Xelsis’ Flow Sensor Was A Little Short Of Actual In-Cup Volume.
    • Sacrificing Simplicity: Touchscreens And Programming Isn’T For Everyone—Especially Early In The Morning.
• How Does It Compare?
  While The Xelsis Shares Its Name With An Older Saeco Model, They Share Very Little In Common. Think Of The Name Like Car Badging, The Xelsis Is Saeco’S ‘M’ Or ‘Amg’ Model Line.
