What we don't like about Siemens EQ.300 TI353501DE

  • The ceramic bean grinding process is quite noisy during operation
  • Lacks automatic indicators or sensors to alert users before running out of water or beans mid-brew
  • Requires frequent emptying and manual cleaning of the relatively small drip tray and coffee grounds container
  • Forces a system rinse cycle upon every startup, which takes around a minute to finish
  • Cannot accommodate two different types of beans due to its all-in-one hopper design
  • The machine does not feature an active cup warmer function
  • Lacks a dedicated bypass chute for pre-ground or decaf powder coffee
  • Some users find the brewing speed to be quite slow when making multiple drinks in a row
  • Plastic-heavy exterior housing material feels less premium to some users

Verdict

The Siemens EQ.300 TI353501DE is a 1300-watt fully automatic bean-to-cup coffee machine equipped with a 15-bar pump system, a 1.4-litre removable water tank, and a 250-gram fresh bean container. Its standout characteristics include a high-performance ceramic grinder, an intuitive coffeeDirect touch display, and the iAroma system which regulates extraction parameters for optimal flavour. The primary pros are its milkPerfect system that automatically froths milk directly inside the cup, its effortless oneTouch beverage selection for specialties like cappuccino and latte macchiato, and a removable brewing unit that simplifies under-the-tap rinsing. However, notable cons include its relatively noisy operation during grinding, a lacks of automated alert indicators when coffee beans run low, and a modest water tank capacity that requires frequent refills due to automated self-cleaning rinse cycles.
