No complicated operations are required, you can brew freshly ground coffee at home!

For friends who work hard every day, they will make themselves a cup of coffee or drink in their spare time to relax themselves. I believe that many friends generally choose instant drinks on the market in order to drink quickly. The advantage is that the price is relatively cheap, but the disadvantage is that this instant drink made through extraction, filtration, concentration, vacuum drying and other processes does not give us a very good feeling in taste and taste. Especially for friends who have high taste requirements, they can't stand this tasteless coffee. The only solution is to buy it in a coffee shop. In order to enable us to enjoy the fragrant and mellow coffee without going to a coffee shop, Korbel launched a "smart single-cup beverage machine". Just match it with capsules and add purified water. Through the simple operation of the APP, you can immediately make a cup of fragrant and mellow coffee for us. After a brief understanding, let's see if this single-cup beverage machine is really as simple and convenient as described.

The outer packaging uses a more portable handheld packaging design. The front simply indicates that the Korbel smart single-cup beverage machine is suitable for K-cup capsules. Two capsules of different beverages are also included with the product, so you can choose your favorite beverage at will. In addition, you can also purchase capsules through the APP mall. It is understood that it currently supports more than one hundred types of capsules, so there is no need to worry about not being able to use it.

The product comes with a quick guide, instruction manual and certificate, but no other accessories. After all, this is a beverage machine and the basic accessories are all on the body of the machine.

My first impression of the Kobel smart single-cup beverage machine is that it is not as big as I expected. With a size of 25.9cm*13.8cm*27.4cm and a weight of only 1.36kg, it can be said to be a portable single-cup beverage machine. It can be placed directly on an objective side table or in the office without taking up too much space. The overall combination of black and green makes the appearance not only simple but also generous.

The green top is the front cover of the machine. First, you need to gently lift it up and then open the black cover. You can place capsules and add purified water inside. Brewing is even simpler. You can start brewing with one button. Of course, the power on and off are all located in this button. In addition, it will use three flashing lights in blue, green and red to prompt you of the current status. The blue light is always on when Bluetooth is connected, the green light flashes when the drink is being heated, the red light flashes when the machine has a problem, etc., allowing you to quickly identify the current working status of the machine.

There is a metal needle in the middle of the machine cover. It is mainly used to open the plastic seal of the single-cup capsule directly without opening it by hand. This is more hygienic.

The machine body contains a water tank, a filter and a capsule slot. You can see that the filter and the capsule slot are made of metal mesh, which is conducive to leaving debris during the filtering process and can effectively prevent the machine from being blocked during the brewing process. The operation process is very simple. Just put in the capsule and add an appropriate amount of pure water to brew the drink with one click. It is worth mentioning that it also has a one-click cleaning function. After brewing a drink, add pure water and start cleaning to brew the next drink. The whole process is very simple. In addition to being able to brew by pressing buttons, it can also be controlled by APP.

A movable drip tray is added under the Kobel smart single-cup beverage machine, which can be taken out and cleaned at will, and can effectively prevent occasional dripping of water when the cup is taken away during the water dispensing process.

It comes with two capsule tasting packs, one for special coffee capsules, and the other for juice drinks, including K-cup and classic coffee, and juice drinks including lemon tea, peach, Assam milk tea, etc. You can also buy capsules through Korbel's official mall to choose your favorite flavor.

In order to satisfy friends who like DIY brewing, a master cup is also included, in which you can put freshly ground coffee or tea, etc., and brew according to your own preferences. However, what I am a little dissatisfied with is that the position of the master cup for putting capsules cannot be covered by the lid of the beverage machine.

In addition to brewing through the buttons on the machine itself, the Korbel smart single-cup beverage machine can also be brewed by downloading an APP to achieve Bluetooth connection. The cleaning part is also done through the APP. It currently supports the two major systems on the market, Android and IOS. Including operation tutorials and capsule purchases, everything can be done through the APP.

The connection is quite simple. Just turn on the Bluetooth of your mobile phone and then turn on the Korbel smart single-cup beverage machine to automatically connect. There are prompts during the process. Before brewing the beverage, you must first clean the beverage machine. Just import pure water, long-press and click to brew for three seconds, and the cleaning and reservation will automatically pop up, and you can start the cleaning process. The overall operation interface is relatively clear and will not make people feel that the operation interface is too complicated. There are also graphic instructions for the operation tutorial below.

Under the brewing button, you can select the currently brewed coffee or drink, and it will automatically set the current temperature, including the amount of water poured in, etc. In terms of brewing support, in addition to coffee and tea, it also supports cocoa and milk powder. It can be seen that this single beverage machine is still a multi-purpose product.

There is also an introduction to each type of capsule in the single cup drink, and you can directly buy the ones you like. The firmware supports online upgrades, but you have to find the firmware update location yourself. I personally think it can be added with a reminder for firmware upgrades, which is more convenient.

This is the first time I tried brewing with the Korbel smart single-cup beverage machine. The whole process did not require too many tedious operations. However, one thing is that you have to control the amount of water yourself, which is a bit troublesome. According to their customer service, you can use a cup to hold water, so that you can drink as much as I want. This solves the problem of water capacity.

It was the first time for Lao Hu to try this capsule beverage machine. The first time he brewed it, he could smell the aroma. Especially in this winter, having a cup of freshly brewed coffee or beverage is much more convenient than buying it outside. In addition, the portable design does not take up too much space whether it is placed at home or in the office. More importantly, you can drink your favorite coffee or beverage anytime and anywhere, and it is still hot. Why not?
