Coffee machine CREMINTERNATIONAL 1002220

A coffee machine designed for ground coffee, the CREMINTERNATIONAL M1 TK brews by gravity-fed infusion. Hot water is drawn from the reservoir, heated to the optimal temperature, and then dripped through the coffee grounds in the filter basket. This method extracts the full flavour and aroma without over-extraction, producing a consistent cup every cycle. The process relies on precise water temperature and controlled contact time, ensuring the coffee does not become bitter or weak.

To operate, fill the water tank manually, place a disposable 110 mm paper filter in the basket, and add the desired amount of ground coffee. Set the brew cycle, and the machine heats the water before dispensing it evenly over the grounds. The minimum brewing time of six minutes allows for complete extraction, while the hot plate keeps the coffee warm after brewing. For larger groups, the full-pot brew option prepares the entire 1.8 litre capacity in a single cycle.

The unit is constructed with a stainless-steel housing and a glass pot. A built-in water softener reduces limescale build-up, improving water quality and extending the machine's lifespan. The filter basket, designed for 110 mm disposable paper filters, eliminates the need for cleaning reusable filters, ensuring hygienic operation. Approximately 20–25 single-use filters are included with the machine.

Controls include a power switch, brew cycle selector, and hot plate indicator. The 2.2 kW power rating requires a dedicated 230 V circuit, suitable for standard UK commercial power outlets. The compact footprint of 205 mm depth, 410 mm width, and 428 mm height fits easily on a worktop or counter, while the 8.5 kg weight allows for straightforward repositioning.

With a capacity of up to 15 litres per hour, the M1 TK is built for medium-volume use, such as offices, small cafés, or catering events. Manual water refill provides flexibility in placement, as no direct water connection is needed. The hot plate maintains coffee temperature for serving multiple cups over time, while the full-pot brew function accommodates larger groups without repeated cycles.

Cleaning involves regular descaling to maintain the water softener's effectiveness, wiping the exterior, and replacing the glass pot and filter basket as needed. The disposable paper filters simplify upkeep, as they are discarded after each use.

The catalogue places this model in the professional coffee equipment section, under countertop brewing machines for ground coffee.
