The TQU60703 is the broader VeroCafe in the 800 Series, 13 6/7 inches across, with a stainless finish and Home Connect. Compared with the narrower TPU machines, the extra width goes to a bigger water tank and milk container. Households making several milk drinks each morning feel that difference most.
A larger milk container has a quiet drawback, though. Milk spends longer inside the machine, so the automatic rinse after each drink matters more here, not less. Milk left warm turns sour and leaves a film that clings to the tubes far more stubbornly than fresh milk does.
Two age-related issues show up on this model. The seal on the water tank can perish and begin to drip inside the machine, and the grinder burrs wear after years of daily use. Burr wear has a recognizable sign: the grind gradually turns coarser and the coffee thins out. We check the rinse routine, the tank seal and the burrs on a visit.
Yes, as Bosch specifies. Warm milk spoils and leaves a deposit that is much harder to clear from the tubes than fresh milk.
It can be, on most Bosch bean-to-cup models. A grind that slowly turns coarser while the coffee tastes weaker is how you notice they have worn.
Switch it off, remove the tank and look at its seal for cracks or hardening. A perished seal is a cheap part, and we can fit one.
