Does it have automatic pump or requires manual pumping? What I meant is if you need to keep pressing the dispense button to fill the mug ?

No "pumping" required...all you do is push an unlock button and then push and HOLD a dispense button until the mug, teapot or whatever you want to fill with hot water is full then release. Very easy to use.

What you are really asking is how do you control the quantity of water that goes in each cup of coffee. You can do it by pressing the button once and again when you want the water to stop flowing. And you can also maintain the button pressed until you have the correct amount of coffee and the release it, and the machine will remember the water volume, allowing you to just press the start button once next time and will automatically stop at the right moment.

Yes, You will have to keep pressing the button. Once you let go, its the amount of water you dispense.

When you hit the brew button it will dispense espresso until you press the button again for it to stop. The unit shuts itself off automatically when you haven't used it for about 20 minutes.

You have to press the button to start and stop the flow of water. It's actually kind of nice because if you're low on capsules and waiting for a delivery, you can stretch them a little farther. Or, if you're needing a really nice little shot of caffeine, you can run it short. The only issue I've had is that it doesn't seem to have the same pressure power as the big Citiz (yes, I have one at home and one at the office), so sometimes it takes 4-5 tries to get the steam to pierce the capsule, which is annoying if you're running out to a meeting and need your espresso fix!

you have to press the unlock button, then hold down the dispense button. this has been plugged into my wall for 3 years now... non stop. we love our machine.

You need to press (and hold) the "button" (lever) while dispensing. I love mine and they last for years!

The pump is automatic, onceIt fills up, it automatically pumps it out. Or u can do it manually..

You have to hold the button down while the espresso is pouring for you desired level.

It only dispenses froth out of its automatic frother. There is an option to froth as much as you can hold in the milk container on the unit. Or as little as you want.

I have both and I believe the manual pump is quieter. Also, the manual one works great.

You have to manually stop the flow versus the more expensive machine that has a premeasure depending on if u r making a cup of coffee vs espresso.

It does not have a reservoir, you pour in the amount for each cup of coffee, there are oz markers. I have a little plastic pouring cup I keep next to it, and just fill it up, I thought it would be irritating then it actually is.

No, it does not. BTW, the water is hand-pumped by pressing the middle part. It does not have the button as water dispenser where you simply push down for the hot water.

There is a large button at the top, I don't know about other model, however this one is manual pumping where you press, release and then press, release until you get the amount you need. For a 12 fl.oz. cup, it's usually 3 or 4 pumps.

I would not know, but an automatic pump is just not to use a switch. I suggest you use a hand pump with a normal switch.Luis

You fill the water from the TOP.... I'm not sure about auto-clean I will have to check for you. I will tell you this is the best coffee maker that I've had to date. I bought a second one for the upstairs. It takes 15 minutes to brew and it is worth the wait. you get a very hot cup of coffee when it is done. I highly recommend it (auto clean or self clean) well worth it.
