Senseo HD7820 Deluxe Single-Serve Gourmet Coffeemaker, Black and Silver Grey with $30... at Chef2Chef

After filling the reservoir with water, insert a pod and lock the lid into place. A simple push of the on/off button and either of the one- or two-cup buttons starts the brewing process. Up to five 4-ounce cups can be brewed on one reservoir of water. Cups are not included, but almost any 4-ounce cup or 8-ounce mug will do the trick. Other highlights include a removable 32-ounce water reservoir, an adjustable spout that can be raised and lowered to accommodate different mug sizes, and dishwasher-safe parts for quick cleanup. A variety of coffee pods are available separately. Shaped like a curved cylinder with a round base, the coffeemaker measures 13-1/2 by 12 by 8-1/2 inches and carries a two-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

Manufacturer Description

The Senseo Deluxe single-serve gourmet coffeemaker has all of the benefits of the original Senseo, while adding helpful new features, such as an adjustable spout and 33 percent larger water reservoir. The Senseo coffeemaker combines an integrated brewing system from Philips Electronics with high-quality coffee pods from Sara Lee’s Douwe Egberts brand, one of Europe’s premiere coffee brands for more than 250 years, to create a perfect cup of coffee. The result of more than seven years of research and development, this coffeemaker brews a consistent, balanced cup of coffee each time with a unique frothy coffee layer. Brewing a sensational cup of fresh, gourmet coffee every time, at the touch of a button, the Senseo Deluxe is perfect for coffee lovers of all varieties. The Senseo's mild pressure system heats water in a boiler to 205 degrees F consistently every time. Via the mild pressure system, the heated water is forced through the machine and is evenly distributed over the premeasured coffee pod. Exiting through a pinhole in the pod tray, the newly brewed Senseo coffee is projected into the base of the patented "frothing chamber," where it is lightly aerated to produce the frothy coffee layer. The machine brews at 1.2 bars. (Espresso machines typically brew at 9 bars or higher and drip brewers do not use pressure.) The machine then distributes either individual or double servings of gourmet Senseo coffee simultaneously--the whole process taking on average only 45 seconds.

Easy to Use, Flavorful Results

The Senseo is simple to use--start by filling the handy removable reservoir up to the "max" line. Then insert the pod, and lock the lid into place. Adjust the spout to the correct height for the coffee mug being used. Next, push the "on/off" button and the brewing process begins with either one or two cups. To make cleanup easy, the removable parts, including pod holders, reservoir, coffee spout, plastic drip tray, and metal cup tray, are dishwasher-safe. Senseo offers a varied selection of blends and flavors. In addition to the first four original blends, Mild, Medium, Dark, and Decaffeinated, you can also choose from Paris Vanilla Bistro, Killarney Irish Creamery, Vienna Hazelnut Waltz, Senseo Sumatra, and Senseo Cappuccino. Senseo Cappuccino‘s specially designed pod contains premium coffee with a separate layer of creamer housed in an innovative "honeycomb" to ensure it blends evenly with the coffee. The result is an extra-luxurious cappuccino, at the touch of a button, with no extra steps involved.
