What we like about Beko CEG5301X

  • Compact design and small footprint, similar in size to capsule machines
  • Excellent value for money and highly affordable for a bean-to-cup machine
  • User-friendly digital touch control panel with simple one-touch functions
  • Produces high-quality espresso with rich flavor and a thick, decent crema
  • Easy to clean with an automatic rinsing cycle and accessible brewing unit
  • Customizable and programmable coffee volume for strong or mild settings
  • Relatively quiet grinding and brewing operations

What we don't like about Beko CEG5301X

  • Lacks a steam wand or integrated milk frothing system for milk-based drinks
  • The first cup of coffee can sometimes come out slightly watery or lukewarm
  • Small capacities for the water reservoir, bean hopper, and grounds bin require frequent refilling and emptying
  • The automatic rinse feature fills up the drip tray very quickly
  • Coffee grounds can occasionally get stuck in the chute above the brewing unit, needing regular manual maintenance
  • The drip tray construction feels a bit flimsy and less sturdy compared to the rest of the unit
  • No option to adjust coffee intensity or use pre-ground coffee

Verdict

The Beko CEG5301X is a super-automatic bean-to-cup coffee machine operating at 1350W with an impressive 19-bar pump pressure system, an integrated conical burr grinder featuring 5 adjustable coarseness settings, and a 125g bean hopper. It features a compact design, a 1.5-litre removable water tank, an adjustable height coffee spout, and a sleek, one-touch LCD control panel that easily programs customized shot volumes from 25ml to 250ml for single or mild/strong espressos. Main pros include its space-saving footprint, rapid pre-brewing extraction system that maximizes flavor depth, and a highly convenient automated auto-rinse and descaling program for hassle-free maintenance. However, notable cons include the lack of a built-in milk frothing steam wand, a missing bean-presence sensor that can lead to empty brewing cycles when the hopper runs dry, and a tendency for water to occasionally leak into the coffee grounds waste reservoir.
