Senseo Coffee Machine

The Philips SENSEO Coffee Pod Machine is an upright narrow machine with the water container found at the rear of the unit and three buttons at the front. The massive middle button is the ON / OFF button, the left button is for one cup and the right button is for 2 cups. The head of the machine is composed of three levers in the centre, every one on top of the other. The top one is raised to open the lid. The second one is the lever for the pod holder. These are removable and there are 2 types : the one cup pod holder is shallow, the two cup is deeper. The lowest lever ( the 3rd one ) is the Coffee outflow unit which can be removed for cleaning. This is composed of the 2 nozzles from that the coffee pours out. The 1 or 2 cups are placed beneath these nozzles. Below these three levers is the surface where the cups are placed. This surface is composed of a stainless-steel cup tray and beneath this is the drip tray which catches any drips. Both of these trays are removable for cleaning. The Philips SENSEO Coffee Pod Machine incorporates two specifically designed cups that are just the proper size for the number of coffee that is poured out. Available in three colors : Blue or gray with black levers and silver buttons ; White with gray levers and silver buttons.
