The Saeco S-TG-ST Talea Giro is a fantastic machine drawing rave reviews from dozens of pleased customers!
Here is what one user wrote: Have been using this machine for a week now, and, most importantly, it makes outstanding coffee. I am not a coffee expert, but as a (now former) Starbucks regular, I can testify that I’d prefer coffee from this machine over Starbucks brew any day.
The machine is easy to install and simple to operate, it is very fast, and a great cup of coffee is always just a minute away
The Saeco S-TG-ST offers the patented technology of the Saeco Brewing System (SBS) which adds an extra level of control by letting you increase or decrease the flow rate of your espresso. A decreased (restricted) flow will give you a stronger, more robust flavor, since the water and grounds are infusing for a longer period of time. If you have a very robust bean, but want a mild brew, you simply turn the dial counterclockwise so the water flows faster.

Seems expensive, but please add up your Starbucks expenditures for the past year and then buy this with no hesitation!
Many espresso purists turn their noses up at superauto machines, but as someone who has owned a high-end non-auto machine, this Saeco will reliably produce a high-quality espresso shot with virtually no effort! With my manual machines the shots would vary in quality, and while at times I could produce a better shot on my own, it would require a lot of effort. This superauto produces espresso that is 100% reliably better than most but not all of the shots I could produce manually, and it does so with almost no effort on my part (add water, beans, empty dreg drawer, that’s about it).
Oh, and definitely get the [optional] Milk Island, which produces a phenomenal microfoam, to the point that you can do some basic latte art with it; again not better than some I could produce manually, but consistently better than most I produce manually, and with no work at all!
This machine looks great, heats up INSTANTANEOUSLY (that’s right, no waiting at all for a boiler to heat up), is fairly quiet (thanks to ceramic grinder), and produces espresso that is superior to anything you could ever get a Starbucks.
I also looked at just about every other superauto in the $500 to $1,500 price range, and in fact tried a number of them out in person. This particular unit was my favorite by a wide margin!
BUY THIS AND THE OPTIONAL MILK ISLAND AND NEVER GO TO STARBUCKS AGAIN! I’m serious.

We got this coffee maker for my husband, who likes to drink a lot of coffee and expend practically no effort to prepare it / clean up afterwards. He already knew drip machines were not for him – clean up after every use… So he had switched to a French press and got to like the bold flavor but that ended up being too much work still. After that he was only drinking “Turkish coffee” (i.e. dump the grounds in a cup and pour water over them) – that was about the right amount of effort but just didn’t taste that great. Especially compared to his favorite “Americanos” at the neighborhood coffee shop.
SOO, when I saw this machine I knew we had to get it. We found it almost 50% off at an unnamed dept. store – so I have absolutely no reason to justify an expensive purchase by writing a positive review
.
I would not say it’s cheaply made at all. The parts where it matters most use high-quality materials. I don’t care if my water tank is plastic – it seems to be crack resistant all right.
The maintenance could not be easier – it cleans itself by running a bit of water through the system before every use (so the coffee never tastes stale) and all you have to do is empty out the grounds drawer and rinse the “brew group” about every week. Very easy.
My husband can make his americanos just by a touch of a button – the dispensing of extra water could not be easier. The switch to steam, just as easy. He loves the coffee and so did our guests – all major coffee fans.
And here’s my favorite part. I didn’t even drink coffee before we got this thing but now I will actually make a super light latte now and then. What won me over? The high-pressured, super-effective milk frothing system and the option to reduce the amount and strength of the coffee you brew. I can’t think of a better investment and I’m glad I listened to my coffee-fanatic sister about going for the proven Saeco brand.
