Espresso machine MELITTA SOLO E950-766, 1.2 L water tank, built-in grinder, 1400 W, silver

The Melitta SOLO E950-766 PURE SILVER is a compact fully automatic espresso machine with an integrated grinder and a 1.2 L water tank. Designed for essential performance in a minimal footprint, it delivers freshly ground coffee and a soft, velvety crema. The machine offers adjustable cup volume, coffee strength and temperature, plus a preinfusion function to release maximum flavour from whole beans. A removable brew group simplifies cleaning, and a programmable 0 watt switch disconnects the appliance from the mains while retaining personal settings.

Advantages

Small dimensions and minimalistic design make the SOLO suitable for limited counter space while housing Melitta brewing technology. The built-in grinder and preinfusion enhance flavour extraction for a richer cup. User controls allow individual adjustment of strength, temperature and portion size, and the height-adjustable spout fits cups, mugs and latte glasses. Removable brew group and programmable 0 watt switch improve hygiene and energy management.

After brewing, adjust the spout height as needed for cups or latte glasses. Remove the brew group periodically for cleaning according to the user manual.

Recommendations

Use fresh, properly roasted whole beans and follow the manufacturer’s cleaning intervals for the removable brew group. Program the 0 watt switch to disconnect automatically when the machine is not needed to reduce standby consumption.
