Features & Functionality of the Saeco Talea Touch Plus
- Brainy: Intuitive in nature, the Talea Touch Plus is a smart machine, with programmable options, a touch screen and specific notifications letting you know exactly what it needs.
- Ceramic Grinder: Quieter and more consistent, we love that Saeco uses these ceramic disc grinders in the Talea Touch Plus.
- Quick Steaming: With Saeco's Rapid-Steam technology, the wait time between brewing and frothing is drastically reduced, preventing delays between brewing and the latte hitting your lips.
- Options For Everyone: With the Saeco Brewing System, there is a seemingly endless list of options as to how to make your drink. But if you're anything like us, the more caffeine, the better.
- Adjustable Drip Tray: Big cups, little cups -- they (mostly) all fit! This automatic drip tray raises and lowers with a unique one-touch feature. Make sure the machine is on when you try to make it work though.
- Easy To Clean: One of the best things about Saeco is how easy they are to clean, with removable water tanks and brewgroups.
- Cup Warmer: Using the heat of the machine, the top of the Talea Touch Plus acts as an installed cup warmer, ensuring your espresso isn't negatively affected.

I'm enjoying my machine
Review by ColoradoConnection -
Price Value Quality After reading numerous reviews on numerous machines on many websites, I decided to visit SCG when I visited my son in December. Dori helped me choose my machine after much discussion. It was very easy to set up and so far I've had no problems. Primarily experimenting with the different strengths to find the perfect cup, although the ones I have made I have enjoyed. Great buy for my first machine. Arrived at my home in a short period of time, with great packaging. No leaks or breakage. Thanks Dori for your help!!

Love this machine
Review by Cappuccinomama -
Quality Value Price Daily user, multiple cups per day. Really like this machine. Quick and easy to use, allows you to individualize the coffee to personal taste. Do wish it had an outer access to add water, but I knew it didn't at the time I bought it, however, it is easy to fill and doesn't slow me down. Like that it lets me know when to empty the dregs and waste water, and keeps memory when it does so in the process of brewing, I can continue on as if no interruption. I researched before buying, and always knew I would come back and purchase from the ladies at Seattle Coffee Gear. Thanks for all the great instructive videos, enjoy them, and you, immensely. You're very intertaining.
Pros:
Can pick the strength, Can pick the temperature, Easy To Clean, Great Taste, Easy To Use, Quick Brewing, Can pick the Aroma
Cons:
Small Water Container, No outer access to water(Posted on 5/24/12)
