Product Details The new Saeco Odea Giro Espresso Machine is a low cost alternative to the higher-end machines Saeco offers, yet it is still packed with features. The innovation is in the control panel with the new coffee control ring that allows you to regulate the quantity of coffee poured into each cup with the simple turning of a knob to make any type of coffee. Simple, but stylish, the Odea Giro will have you conjuring up fabulous espressos, cappuccinos, mochas, lattes and all of your favorite coffeehouse drinks with the touch of a finger. All this by just pressing a button? Absolutely! Features: Fully Automatic Espresso & Coffee BrewingDo you like to start your day with an espresso, but don't want to have to clean up the mess? Just press the button and the Odea Giro will automatically grind your coffee beans, and dispense freshly brewed, rich and flavorful coffee into your cup. This machine allows you to choose the volume and strength of your coffee or espresso by simply pressing buttons on the control panel. Then it cleans up and is ready for the next order in less than 30 seconds. Press the brew button once for a single espresso or coffee. Pushing the brew button twice quickly will put a double shot of espresso or coffee in your cup. Utilize the enormous flexibility of this machine?s programming options by varying the water volume up to 7 ounces and the ability to use up to 9 grams of ground coffee per brewing cycle. By experimenting with the water volume and grams of ground coffee you can fine-tune your coffee and easily program these parameters into the memory. Ceramic Coffee GrinderThe ceramic grinder is Saeco's most recent innovation. After careful research, Saeco finally chose this material to put an end to grinding with metal components. Indeed ceramic is inert, and thus ensures the best results without altering the flavor of coffee. The new ceramic grinder also provides a more even grind, allowing perfect dosing and blending, and giving you more control over the density and body of your coffee. And that's not all: the amount of coffee residue left in the cup is sizably reduced. Long-lasting, minimum noise! Thanks to its sturdy build, the ceramic coffee-grinder will quietly go on grinding to the same high standard for a long time. Hot Water Dispenser & Rapid-Steam1® Technology We?re all steamed up about Saeco's patented Rapid-Steam® system! Turn the steam knob and have instant steam for cappuccinos or lattes. Other systems can have you waiting up to 45 seconds for the steam function to be ready but not with Rapid-Steam®; you?ll have consistent steam for repeated drinks. The special milk frothing tip delivers perfect foam every time for lattes or cappuccinos, even if you have never foamed milk before! The steam wand is located on the right front of the machine and it accommodates frothing pitchers up to 32 oz. If you need instant hot water for making tea, hot cocoa, or Americanos, the hot water feature is available at the press of a button. Special Pre-infusion Brew System Cycle Pre-infusion allows you to get maximum flavor from the brewing process. This advanced system takes the newly ground coffee beans from the internal coffee grinder and correctly tamps the coffee. Next comes ?pre-infusion?. The grounds are pre-soaked and then brewed before being discarded automatically into the internal dump box. The machine then resets itself for the next brewing cycle. Additional Features & Maintenance Information:Built-in 50 Ounce Water TankThe water reservoir can easily be refilled while it is still on the machine or by removing it with the easy-grip handle and filling it at the kitchen tap. The reservoir is made of clear ABS plastic so checking the water level is a breeze. For Perfect Coffee Extraction - a Powerful PumpDelivering a maximum pressure of 15 bars, this on board water pump pulls the maximum flavor from the coffee beans. Coffee Bean Storage Hopper & Internal Waste BoxKeeping 1/4 pound of beans fresh and ready for grinding is the built in, lidded coffee bean hopper. When the coffee grounds are spent, the machine delivers them to the internal dump box; which can hold up to 15 expended coffee portions. It?s easy to remove and clean. Stainless Steel Heating SystemOne of the reasons the Odea Giro is great for anything from small commercial settings to home or office use, is its durable 1200 watt stainless steel boiler. It provides for continuous use or a lot of servings over a short time period. Heated Cup Stacking SurfaceThere is a cup-stacking surface so you can keep your favorite espresso cups close by. Operational Lights and IndicatorsThe machine uses a system of lights and indicators to help you monitor the brewing process and signal when the machine needs to be re-supplied with water or coffee beans and when it needs to be cleaned. Rolling BaseThe Odea Giro is a little too heavy to be picking up and moving around on your counter. Saeco took care of this by adding special rollers to the bottom of the machine. Getting into your espresso machine for cleaning and maintenance is important for the long life of your machine. The rolling base makes it easy to access all sides of your machine to remove the water tank and open the side service door. Adjustable Drip TrayThe machine has an adjustable height drip tray that raises or lowers the cups below the coffee dispensing spouts. By raising the drip tray either up or down, you can select the desired height depending on the height of your espresso cups or coffee mugs. Optional Accessories Sold Separately: Cleaning & Maintenance of ComponentsIn order to keep the inside of your machine healthy; your machine must be cleaned periodically. Scale buildup from naturally occurring minerals in your water can build up on sensitive components like the inside of the boiler, which if left unchecked can cause considerable damage to the machine. By descaling your machine every two-three months, your machine will last for many trouble-free years. Saeco espresso machine cleaner can be purchased from us or by calling the support number in your user guide. The machine will tell you when it?s time to activate the self-clean system when the light comes on. After adding our cleaner, just press the clean button. The machine will take it from there. Descaling and general cleaning is important even if you have a sophisticated water filter system, and especially if you use well water. Used coffee grounds are collected in the internal dump box, which can hold up to 15 spent portions of coffee before it requires emptying. Wastewater left over from the rinsing cycles is stored in a removable drip tray. When the indicator light illuminates, simply pull out the tray, empty and reinsert in seconds. All components such as the used grounds container, drip tray, and water tank can be hand washed with regular soap and water. Installation & AccessoriesPlug it in and the Odea Giro is ready to go. No fuss, no mess, no special plumbing for water intake or discharge and no special electrical outlets are required. Detailed instructions on the optimum care and operation of your machine is included with the purchase along with a brewing group maintenance tool and a coffee grinder cleaning brush and a 24 month warranty on parts and labor. Service & SupportAll Saeco products are offered with an unlimited toll free technical support service. If you have any questions or need help, just call us at the number provided in your help guide.

Ingenuity became the company's hallmark, and in 1985 Saeco unveiled the world's first fully automated espresso maker. The product was a smash success. Saeco took off in the 1980s and 1990s, winning the devotion of espresso drinkers the world over with its innovative, reliable espresso makers.

From espresso machines to air conditioners, vacuums, and other home products, today's Saeco continues to reflect its founders' insistence on technological excellence, quality, and durability.

All this by just pressing a button? Absolutely! Just add your favorite coffee beans to the hopper and fresh water to the reservoir. Start up begins with pressing the coffee button on the control panel. The automatic coffee grinder starts grinding to your specifications and transfers the fresh grounds to the built-in brewing system where your coffee or espresso is brewed at the right temperature, volume and strength, just like you programmed it from the control panel.

The steam wand is conveniently located and swivels to accommodate frothing pitchers ranging from 12 oz. to 20 oz. in size. Within 35 seconds of turning on the steam knob, the Go will be steaming at full power, and continue to produce steam as long as the water tank is full thanks to its advanced continuous steam boiler.

Love it!

"After going through two of the cheapest Gaggia's by having the boiler go out, I decided to spring for a more pricey machine. The only thing I can't rate is the durability of the Saeco. I have only had it for a week, but I absolutely love it. It is fast, and unbelievably easy to use. You can adjust the grind to change the strength of the shot, and additional shots are as simple as pressing the button again--n..." Read Full Review »

"It was great for 3 and a half weeks. Then it broke. It would not grind or brew. Sent it for repair and came back worst. Now it doesn't even heat the water. Construction is also cheap plastic outside. SAECO USA would not honor warranty. They reffered to inporter. Do not buy this product...." Read Full Review »
