Saeco Talea Ring Plus Fully Automatic Espresso / Cappuccino Center

One-Touch Technology
The Talea Ring Plus will automatically grind the right amount of coffee, tamp, brew and dispense the used gounds into an internal dregdrawer, all at the touch of an icon.

Saeco Easy Clean System
The heart of the Talea Ring Plus is the patented removable brew group. This device allows the machine to tamp, brew and dispense the coffee in one cycle. The brew group can be removed at the push of a button, for convenient rinsing and chemical free cleaning. This brew group is exclusive proprietary Saeco technology and one of the unique advantages that has made Saeco the world leader in automatic espresso machines.

Patented SBS Technology
An absolutely revolutionary innovation. Saeco Brewing System (SBS) allows you to make an infinite variety of coffee drinks from just one machine at the twist of a dial. Choose from the strongest ristretto shot with a thick crema to a milder coffee with less crema. The SBS dial adjusts the amount of pressure in the brewing chamber, so you can control the strength and extraction for each cup brewed.

Hot Water Dispenser & Rapid-Steam®Technology
The Talea features 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.

Saeco Aroma System
Taste the full aroma of coffee beans in every cup. To optimize the coffee drinking experience, a special programmed step injects a small amount of hot water into the freshly ground coffee to start a pre-brewing process. This is done just before the actual brew cycle commences in order to extract the best aromas and flavors from the grounds.

Programmable Brew Settings
The Talea Ring Plus is designed with 6 fully programmable brew settings. To program, simply touch and hold one of the icons until the desired amount of espresso is reached. With each drink, you can program the quantity of espresso and milk dispensed, temperature of the espresso, the amount of ground coffee used and more.

Pump System
The Talea Ring Plus features a powerful pump, rated at 15 bars (217.6 psi) of pressure. Authenic Italian coffee requires this steady pressure to produce a premium extraction.

Ceramic Disc Grinder
The ceramic grinder also provides an even grind, allowing perfect dosing and blending, giving you more control over the density and body of your coffee. Because ceramic is inert it will not absorb the flavor of the coffee overtime, it is much more durable and grinds considerably quieter.

Pre-Ground Bypass
The pre-ground bypass doser allows you to use pre-ground decaffeinated or flavored coffee without emptying the beans in the hopper.

Touch Lift Technology
The motorized drip tray can easily be raised or lowered allowing different cup sizes. Espresso cups can easily be accommodated, it is also removable for easy cleaning. No matter what you are in the mood for, we can fit the cup that goes with it.

Aqua Prima Water Filter
With the Aqua Prima filter the number of flavor-altering substances found in your water is greatly reduced. Impurities are filtered out of your water, leaving you to enjoy the improved flavor and full aroma of your coffee.

Built-in 57 Ounce Water Tank
The 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.

Coffee Bean Storage Hopper
Keeping 1/4 pounds of coffee beans fresh and ready for grinding is the built in lidded coffee bean hopper.

Internal Dregdrawer
The internal dregdrawer is where the Talea Ring Plus deposits the coffee after the brewing process, holding up to 15 spent coffee portions. Once full the touch screen will show that it needs to be emptied. Remove the dregdrawer, empty contents, rinse and replace the container into the machine, Once these steps are completed the machine is ready to brew again.

Cup Warming Surface
Stack several porcelain or ceramic cups on this large and convenient heating surface. The cup warming surface keeps your cups and espresso at an optimal temperature while enhancing the full flavors and aromas extracted from the bean.

Removable Drip Tray
A single tray can be removed from the front of the machine containing the cup tray and drip pan. Made of durable ABS plastic, it cleans easily with soap and water. (Not dishwasher safe)

Sliding Wheel Base
Small wheels have been placed on the base of the machine to simplify general maintenance and cleaning. The entire machine will rotate with a light push for easy accessibility of all the components.

Saeco offers a two year parts and labor warranty.

Cleaning & Maintenance of Components

In 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 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.

The machine will tell you when it's time to activate the self-clean system by 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 lights 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 & Accessories Plug it in and the Talea Ring Plus 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 brew group maintenance tool, Aqua Prima water filter, water hardness test kit, grinder adjustment key, a coffee grinder cleaning brush, and a 24-month warranty on parts and labor.
