Disgusting, you call that espresso? That's more like coffee flavored water. You pulled that shot in like 15 seconds. Maybe the engineering is German but if that's how they prepare their espresso I'll stick to my counter top machine. A proper shot takes 22 to 28 seconds, has a nice deep color, and crema should be more orange in color. Not shoddy foam on top! If anything, at least change the display so as not to soil the idea of what espresso really is.

^Unfortunately, that's the problem with fully automatic machines. Hand tamping and being able to continuously adjust the grind are the keys to a good shot. A machine just can't replace a good Barrista - go to Dunkin Donuts and see it first hand!
