Review: Finally, really really good coffee! - I have been looking for a coffee machine with grinder function ever since our previous machine died a couple of months ago. The previous one was a Krupps fully automatic machine, made really good coffee but like all machines do at some point, it decided to die. There are quite a few machines in the $1200+ range and a few in the $600-1200 range, which is the price range I was looking at. I had short-listed to Gaggia vs Philips, leaning more towards Gaggia but reports of their poor customer service was disconcerting. Both of these are fully automatic. De'Longhi had the semi-automatic Magnifica but it didn't look pleasing aesthetically as far as matching the rest of my kitchen goes. Breville seemed a little too much work with manual tamping - as in, you actually take the tamper and press into the portafilter to tamp. Almost as I was finally ready to buy, I see this De'Longhi - la specialista. I have had this machine for about two weeks now. It is a semi-automatic machine. Its not a press-one-button-and-get-coffee machine, you will have to do some, a little, bit of work. Meaning, attach the portafilter to the grind unit and then the brew unit. Not a lot of work, and it actually feels good to be doing that!! Build quality is really really good. I am hard pressed to tell plastic from steel parts. Sides have the brushed steel look and chrome trims and I have no idea what is plastic. A very solid, well built machine. It looks really really good sitting on the counter, especially with that black 'dashboard' with the pressure gauge dominating the facade. The portafilter is solid and surprisingly heavy - you could easily use it for defense in case of burglary or something !! Same solid build is seen also in the included frothing mug and the filters, as well as the steel drip tray grill. Rest of the drip tray is plastic - the one place where plastic is obviously plastic. Power button turns it on of course - there's a master on/off switch in the back. Also in the back is a water reservoir which is surprisingly large. Attaching the portafilter to the grinder starts the grinding automatically. The machine will grind coffee for one or two shots if you press the 2x button. This is where my only frustration with the machine arose - frustration that has since been resolved. Start with factory default settings - fineness at 3 and amount of coffee dial at about 10 o'clock position. I was too impatient and started playing with the dials causing the machine to grind EXCESSIVE amounts of coffee and essentially malfunction. Ground coffee would back up the discharge chute from the grinder resulting in unhappy sounds from the machine and unhappy time for me. De'Longhi uses an "exclusive" new technology / sensor to determine how much coffee to grind. I think the common method is to grind for a certain amount of time. This machine detects the actual amount ground - I think. Anyway, I think this sensor is located in the chute which can be accessed by popping up a small flap located right at the base of the bean hopper. Using the provided brush tool, and a thin plastic stick, I unclogged this chute and cleaned out as much coffee grounds as I could. Problem solved. But it did take about half a bag of beans before getting that resolved. I blame the above on the fact that this is our first semi-automatic machine. There is a learning curve. Now that the vulnerable part is identified and addressed, the machine has been working without any issues whatsoever. I am actually coffee-making, barista style, on this thing. Coffee tastes really really good. Unlike the Breville, this one has a built in tamper - handle on the left side of the machine in the product photos. Once you attach the portafilter, the machine will automatically grind the dosed amount of coffee. Pull the handle down to tamp - there's a mark to tell you how much to pull. Remove the portafilter, attach it to the brewing station and press OK button. And you have your coffee. The built in milk frother / steam wand works really well too. The frother has a dedicated heating unit, separate from the brew unity. It has a 'flat' and 'foam' function. I tried both and really enjoy the foamed steamed milk. After watching a few YouTube videos, I learned to hold the included frothing mug at a certain angle and move it in circular motion etc but then discovered that the machine does a really fine job without those shenanigans. Just set the mug on the corner of the drip tray, stick the want in there and turn the dial for steaming. You get a luxurious micro froth without doing the dance I described. And the steam stops automatically. If you like your coffee actually hot though, you will have to do the steam twice. There is a function to increase the temperature of the coffee but I have not played with that setting so far. The cons are very few. Coming from a fully automatic machine, I had a to learn to use a semi-automatic one but that should be expected of any new tool / machine. The machine is full enclosed and does NOT have the easily removable brew unit that some manufacturers highlight, including DeLonghi. That might be an issue further down the road, but DeLonghi Magnifica and Breville don't have that feature as well and don't seem to be suffering as a result. Overall, I am really pleased with the machine. Great build quality, great coffee. Happy with the purchase.
Review: As quick and easy as a pod machine - I read several online magazine reviews of different espresso machines, and this one ranked as one of the best. I ended up choosing this over a similar Breville machine because of the additional hot water spout. I was initially apprehensive about the price, but now I don't know how I waited so long to get one of these. The only problem now is that I want to drink coffee all day! The machine is super easy to use, yet it's fun to operate and you feel like a professional barista. You get your coffee as fast as you would from a pod machine, but it tastes like you got it at a coffee shop. Once the machine is set up (not difficult), brewing a coffee is as simple as: 1. Attach the filter to the grinder. The correct amount of beans will grind automatically. 2. Tamp the grounds with the lever. 3. Attach the filter to the brewer and place a cup underneath. 4. Select your drink and hit OK. There are some great features that make it easy to create the full range of coffee shop drinks: * You can easily grind and brew 1 or 2 shots. Filters are provided for both sizes. * You can select espresso, Americano (espresso + hot water), or "coffee" (AKA a lungo), and the machine applies the correct amount of water and brewing time. * A separate button will provide hot water only, making this the easiest way to brew tea. * There is a wand that can froth or steam milk so you can make cappuccinos and lattes. I initially thought the coffee was not hot enough, but I checked the manual and found a setting to use a higher water temperature. There is also a bit of trial and error to set the grinder to get exactly the right "dosage" of grounds per shot, but once you have that dialed in, you don't have to worry about it again for a long time. In conclusion, this is a great machine and I'm so glad I bought it. I can think of very few purchases where I was just as excited to use the thing weeks after I got it, and this is one of them. PS. If you ever see "desertcart Warehouse" selling one at a deep discount, go for it. I got a $300 markdown because one corner of the shipping box was slightly dented. The machine itself was pristine!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am looking for really good tasting coffee beans for this machine. Which can you recommend?**
A: Currently using lavazza super crema... really good taste and  crema. As for dark I use monkey and sons fook. Really comes down to preference try some different types/roasts.

**Q: Is the height specs from the bottom of the machine to the top of the grinder?**
A: Fits closely under my cabinets which have an 18 inch space. Need to pull it out when filling the beens or water. We put sliders on the bottom of the machine. Fits perfectly for us.

**Q: Is this machine Made in China?**
A: Like I said I still believe its a really good machine. Its been six months and every cup of coffe capucino or any type of coffe i make is great. Its made with stainless steel, except the water container. Maintenance is easy. And considering the prince. Its the closest to comercial grade for the price. However if you want full comercial grade make sure you have the counter space and a few thousand to invest for a coffee and espresso maker/tea maker. This one cost less than $900 so for the money your paying its a great product regardless of where it was made. Once you learn to use this machine you wont want another. I stand by it and for me it works great. If anyone is worried I believe they offer a warrenty you can purchase.

**Q: Is this a 51mm portafilter basket?**
A: It is designed specifically for this machine and is narrower and deeper than my old Rancillio.  I measure the portafilter basket opening at 52 mm.

### ⭐ Some good ideas... poor implementation
*by C***M on February 24, 2021*

What initially attracted me to this device was it's Italian made and they take their coffee seriously along with the integrated grinder and tamper. I know a few people who have machines and the grounds make a mess on the counter top. Purchased in August 2019 with three repairs so far so just not a very reliable product. The good: When it works it brews a really nice coffee with nice crema. The integrated grinder and tamper work well. The bad: It breaks quite frequently. The first two times it was under warranty so we got to send it back for free. The first break was a loss of pressure in the device when making a coffee. This decreased the volume output and removed the nice crema from the top. The second time we got a refurbished machine which lasted another six months. Broken thankfully just before the warranty period ended. Most recently the steamer has malfunctioned so instead of frothing milk it only heats the milk. The other major issue with the steamer is instead of a wand they give you a nozzle which lets you change the amount of air allowed to mix with the steam. Well milk gets up the nozzle and really requires taking it off daily and cleaning it. Consider that vs a wand where you only need to turn on the steam function and it clears the line from any milk. I have forgotten to on some days in a hurry and the next find curdled milk rising to the top of my coffee the next.
