The cbtl americano from the coffee bean and tea leaf. Makes fast, fresh and flavorful espresso, coffee or tea.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Good drip coffe, but wonderful espresso!
I've just had my CBTL Americano for a few weeks now, but here are my thoughts so far:
It's very easy to use. Turn it on and after a minute or less to heat up, it's ready to go. Drop in a capsule, push the button for the type and size of beverage you want and wait 30-40 seconds for it to brew. Couldn't be simpler.
Yes, it has a lot of plastic parts. I wish it was made of better materials (i.e., more metal and less plastic). But I really think you would have to be very careless or wreckless in order to break it. It doesn't seem fragile to me. If this bothers you, go for the Kaldi model, which I understand uses less plastic (but you lose the ability to use larger travel mugs with the Kaldi).
If I'm honest, I have to say that the drip coffee is plenty good, but I think my mom's Kuerig makes slightly better drip coffee. If I drank mostly drip coffee, I would probably opt for a Kuerig B-70 over the CBTL.
I also think that my old Saeco...

Works as advertised
I am a novice when it comes to making coffee from a machine. However, I decided to give the CBTL Americano a try, since I like making my own "coffee drinks" at home. Up to now I have been using a coffee substitute called Kaffree Roma, which is very good, but does not have quite the flavor of coffee.
As far as aesthetics, the Americano Red machine looks very nice on our kitchen counter.
I drink a lot of tea and have boxes and boxes of teabags at home. The Americano can dispense hot water in 6 different sizes: 2 oz, 4 oz, 8 oz, 9 oz, 10 oz and 12 oz. I found that the temperature of the water is about right, but cools off very quickly if the cup is cold, so I either pre-heat the cup with hot water or heat the tea in the microwave for a few seconds. The water is more than hot enough coming out of the machine to brew a good cup of tea. It is much easier and faster than using an electric tea kettle, which is what I was previously using.
I have tried...
Absolutely Wonderful
As someone who prefers a cup of coffee that tastes like coffee and not just brown water, I must say I love this machine.
I was hesitant to purchase any sort of single cup maker after trying a competing brand, just because I do like strong coffee, but this exceeds all of my expectations.
The machine may be a little noisy, but no more so than any other machine and with a 15 bar espresso pump, I would hope that it wouldn't be silent.
I have tried every type of capsule available and while I have liked some more than others, I have not been disappointed by any of them.
