Solis Master 5000 SuperAuto Espresso Machine with Built-in Solis Burr Mill
(pitctured above: Black-Silver Model)
The
Simplicity of the Master 5000 Control Panel. Anyone can make perfect coffee with
this machine! Press one button, and a single, freshly-ground, freshly brewed cup
of coffee is made. This machine excels at brewing single cups of coffee
between 5-8 oz. The cup has extraordinary body, a rich tan crema on the surface,
called a Cafe Suisse or Cafe Crema in Northern Europe. The machine will inform
you by a light on the front panel if the 3 bins are full or need filling: the
water resevoir, the bean hopper, or the used coffee cake collector. But we have
found for using the Master 5000 in our shop that all the bins are of adequate
size that they do not demand much attention. This machine is made to turn on in
the morning, make cup after cup of excellent espresso or coffee all day long,
and turn off at night... | The
Master 5000 grinds your fresh roasted whole beans, doses, tamps, and extracts
perfect espresso, complete with an excellent crema. And it does it all with the
push of a single button. For this reason, the master 5000 is the ultimate shared/office/company-kitchen
machine. The front panel dial allows the user to select the coffee strength for
each cup. A fully adjustable steam wand froths and steams milk for a perfect cappuccino,
latte or hot chocolate.
The simplicity of the control panel makes it
easy - select the strength from espresso to coffee, push the button and the Master
5000 makes the perfect Espresso, Cafe Crema or Coffee. All the guesswork is taken
out. It's no wonder this machine is appreciated by so many espresso and coffee
lovers, especially those too groggy in the morning to sit over a boiling kettle!
This fully automatic espresso machine also incorporates a number of very practical
advantages: half gallon water reservoir is accessible from above; the height adjustable
dispensing head is ideal for large and small cups; and the quiet and adjustable
grinder ensures the retention of the aroma and flavor of the freshly ground
beans.
We tested this machine at our warehouse, and we have found that it was especially good at making full-bodied coffee with a crema on the top, called
Cafe Suisse or Cafe Crema. The espresso is good, especially the tall
(lungo) espresso. But it is this slightly larger drink, 6 oz. in size
with a think tan crema on the surface and rich buttery body, that has
won us over, especially brewed with fresh-roasted Ethiopian Harar, or
Indonesians like Sumatra, Sulwesi and Java. This machine will not make a very short espresso, and if you really want to control the drink, you need to use a semi-auto machine, not a fully automatic one. But for one button convenience, this machine is hard to beat. One
