Moonlight is a pale warm grey in a matt finish – the most restrained colour in the range and the one that works in a kitchen where nothing else is trying to be a feature.
1050 W, a 1.4 litre tank and a 1.25 litre carafe that brews up to ten cups, with a keep-warm plate that holds the pot for 40 minutes and then stops. The filter is permanent stainless steel rather than paper, there is an aroma selector for a stronger or milder brew, and an auto-start timer so it can be set the night before. Anti-drip on the filter holder means the carafe can come out mid-brew without a puddle on the plate.
Worth knowing before you choose: the matt colourways are R300 dearer than the gloss ones and the machine inside is identical. Smeg lists matt at R5,199 against R4,799 for gloss – you are paying for the finish, not for anything mechanical.
