Understood on the milk thing guys. The ones I'm looking at have a cleaning cycle for the milk tubes after every use. Thats sort of a must have if you're going to have one.

Heck - even my steam wand would get some goo on it on my Francis - but part of htat was because I liked to sweeten the milk before steaming. Made really nice sweet foam in the cappuccinos....

I know the milk bit seems frivoulous - but I really don't want to be frothing milk while I am half asleep in the morning. Too many motor skills and the screechy sound makes me grumpy.
