Based on a customer recommendation (who swears by this as his go-to for making his daily Americanos with his Saeco Italia), we brought in a demo to try it out with different coffee and tea cups. We didn't test how it performs with cup noodle, but it explicitly states in the user manual that it's perfect for that, so we'll take their word on that (for now). Watch Gail go through its basic features and test it for pour over, Americano, press pot and tea.
