Housed in an impressive, stainless steel case, the Dama makes programming your favorite drinks easy with a bright and clear LCD screen. All of this, combined with a smaller-than-average footprint, demonstrates the power, grace and quality of this top of the line superautomatic machine.

Pros
- Power Steam - Push-button simplicity makes frothing a snap
- Cut the Waste - This machine's most unique feature is that it only heats the milk for the drink you're brewing. This means you can easily put the remaining milk (in the container) back into the fridge. No waste!
- Gran Dama, Indeed - Despite the smaller footprint, this machine still features a 60oz water tank for up to seven and a half cups of coffee at a time.
|
Cons
- No Manual Steam - Users can use the automatic frothing container, but there is no standard steam wand on
- Oil-Free- Like most superautomatics, the grinder is not oily bean friendly. Try a medium espresso roast for optimum results.

Components & Functionality
- Automatic For the People: The 6700's efficient brewing system grinds and brews espresso while the automatic milk frother dispenses creamy, hot milk into your cup. With four programmable coffee drink sizes and 3 programmable milk drink buttons, allowing you complete, consistent control of your coffee and milk volume.The self-cleaning milk system takes that unnecessary hassle out of your latte or cappuccino!
- Get With the Program: Through the LCD display, users can access the detailed programming menu, set coffee and milk volume, adjust temperature, access cleaning cycles, and much more. The display leads you through every operation, brewing, cleaning, programming on the Gran Dama, and is easily navigable and brightly lit.
- Push-Button Foam Party: The Perfecta has mastered automatic beverages with their integrated milk frothing system. The 25 oz. milk container froths or steams and then pours directly into your cup. After your drink, press the "clean" button on the milk container, and the machine automatically flushes the milk system with hot water. Dishwasher safe, the milk container can also be stored in the refrigerator between drinks!
- Grind Like a Pro: The Perfecta employs a heavy-duty burr grinder built to last the life of the unit. Inside the 7 oz. bean hopper, you will find an adjustment knob which allows you to fine-tune your grind settings.
- Get Into Hot Water: The 6700 comes complete with the ability to dispense hot water right from the boiler. Simply remove the milk container and snap the hot water spout into place, and you are ready.
- Dose Me: Need it stronger? Maybe it's time to dial it back to decaf? The 6700's bypass doser allows you to bypass the grinder with pre-ground coffee, making it easy to make the shift from one bean to another.
- Warm It Up: Did you know you lose as much as 15 degrees from your drink when you use a cold cup? Take the edge off of your shot glasses or cups with the cup warming surface.
