What we like about Krups Grind Aroma XL KM842810

  • The built-in grinder brews fresh-ground coffee.
  • Three grind settings let you pick the grind.
  • 18 cups and a 1.5 L tank suit a family or office.
  • The removable water tank lifts out for filling.
  • The keep-warm time can be adjusted.
  • The display makes the timer easy to program.

What we don't like about Krups Grind Aroma XL KM842810

  • At 5.8 kg it is heavy to move.
  • At 31 cm wide and 44 cm tall, it needs a lot of counter space.
  • It needs regular cleaning, and no part goes in the dishwasher.
  • The grinder is less precise than high-end mills.
  • It uses paper filters, so you buy them as you go.

Verdict

Grinding the beans inside the machine is what sets the Krups Grind Aroma XL KM842810 apart. Fresh-ground coffee has noticeably more aroma than pre-ground, and there are three grind settings to pick from. The 1.5 L tank and 18 cups suit a family or office, and the tank comes out for filling at the sink. A warming plate with adjustable keep-warm time keeps the coffee ready, and a display makes the timer easy to set. The trade-off is size. At 31 cm wide, 44 cm tall and 5.8 kg, it needs a lot of counter space. It makes filter-style coffee rather than espresso, and the grinder needs regular cleaning. It suits a busy household or office that wants fresh coffee for many people and has room for a large machine.
