De'Longhi EC885M Dedica Art Espresso Machine

No one brews the perfect espresso quite like these Italians!

Uzun arayış sonunda bir bilenden yardım alarak bu makineyi seçtik. İyi ki bunu almışım. Fazla para vermenize gerek yok iyi kahve ile iyi espresso. Üzerine düşeni layıkıyla yapıyor. Süt köpürtme fonksiyonu açısından bakarsanız kalın uçlular ile karşılaştırmayacaksınız zaten bu ince uçlu uzun versiyonu diğerine fark atmış durumda. Severek kullanıyorum.

Excelente calidad. No incluye jarra para espumar ni vasitos o jarra para almacenar el café. Eso no me gustó y por eso le pondré 4 estrellas, anuncian algo que no es completo. La compré en el hot sale y creo que vale la pena. Tiene potencia, calidad en los productos. Anteriormente, tuve una cafetera koblenz de espresso sencilla y nada que ver con el café. He estado blasón robusto espress Gourmet y me va de maravilla. Recomiendo

I really love this espresso machine. It's nice and compact, not taking too much room on my counter. The espresso it produces is quite nice, although my old Breville Cafe Roma gave better creme. I will continue to try different beans and grind sizes to get better creme. The portafilter is tight to engage at first, but I think mine is breaking in now, so it is a little easier. People have complained about it being tippy because it is so light, when engaging the portafilter, but some trial and error and I figured out the best way to hold it is on the machine just above where you put the portafilter in when you twist it. After some practice I have worked out how to get nice foam for my lattes. I'm really happy with it. The machine isn't overly loud. The steaming for lattes is much quieter than my old Cafe Roma which sounded like dying banshees. I don't feel so guilty about using it when other members of the family are sleeping in the morning. People complaining about it not producing froth should watch some Youtube videos and keep trying. You will get it, and the froth will happen. Now I just have to figure out how to make art. Despite the lack of art on my lattes they still taste awesome, and the texture is really nice as well. Another thing Is full fat milk makes nicer froth, and add your syrups to your cup and not the milk. An americano has become part of my morning routine. I like to put the hot water in my cup first and pull the espresso shot on top. It leaves the creme more intact. Speaking of straight into the cup, it is nice to be able to remove the catch tray and fit a regular sized cup under the portafilter, so no need to transfer espresso shots to other cups. The baskets that comes with it comes apart for cleaning. I didn't see how often it is recommended that you take apart the baskets, but I would recommend once a day. I read other reviews that say after a few uses that their machines wouldn't pull a shot. I had this same issue, but I noticed that when I took apart the basket, it had dried espresso covering the little hole. Since then, I take it apart after I use it and either rinse or wash it off. I use a spoon to grip the little rubber tab to help it pull apart easier. I found that the double shot was too small, only about an ounce of fluid and I read it should be 2 ounces. I was able to easily program the machine to pull a longer shot. I really do love this machine and recommend it to those looking for an affordable espresso machine. Apparently you can buy a bottomless portafilter to upgrade and fine tune your espresso experience. I may one day do this. Edit to add that I tried grinding my beans slightly finer ans now have better creme. The Ethical Beans, Sweet Espresso are delicious and so smooth tasting.

I had a 3-in-one machine and knew it was time to upgrade when I saw the Delonghi Dedica Arte. Even though the Delonghi doesn't have a grinder, I bought one that didn't break the bank and the coffee is A1. First things first, the ease of use is truly there. It is straightforward to use. The steam wand has a great feel and I always steam twice after the milk for a cleaner wand. Other than the feel, the pressure is strong! Obviously, not to the level of a coffee shop machine but this is for the home and it is more than enough power. It is capable of pulling great-looking latte art. I am no barista, but even with my rookie skills, I can create art without it looking like polyps. The portafilter it comes with is good but I had to go with a bottomless. In my opinion, shots taste and look better with the bottomless portafilter. In my past machine, shots tasted way too bitter and no cream ever came from it. I can taste sweetness and body in my coffee. There is one minor problem I have with it, but I think I'm nitpicking. When I pull the shot and steam my milk, If I were to do another latte or cappuccino, I have to lower the temperature of the machine. This is done by releasing water through the steam wand, and it tends to be annoying when you have guests over. It takes about 1 to 2 minutes extra until you can pull another shot. Other than that, this machine is very very good and puts a smile on my face every morning.
