De'Longhi Eletta Explore Espresso Machine with Cold Brew, Hot & Cold Milk Frother - 50+ Recipes, Built in Grinder, Smartphone Compatible with Bean Adapt Technology for Ideal Extraction, 3.8 Pounds

This coffee machine does it all, and then some. It makes delicious espresso with very little adjustment. It makes virtually foolproof drinks any way you could possibly want them. And it’s not super loud. It has some features that are incredible, and some extra features that seem superfluous. But I will tell you, I’ve had a few espresso machines over the years and this one is the best so far. Favorite Features: - Hot and cold milk drinks. There are two milk carafes that do take up fridge space, but they earn it. My favorite is the flat white. But the cold brew latte is a fantastic summer drink. The versatility is incredible. - To-go Mode: The grill at the bottom flips up so there’s room for a to-go cup, and the machine will make a larger version of the drink so you don’t have a tiny sad coffee in your huge to-go cup. It’s great. - Profiles and personalization: comes with up to four user profiles. For each drink, an individual user can choose to customize the amount of espresso and milk involved; basically, the machine makes the drink for you, and you push the “stop” button during each step when the desired amount of an ingredient has been dispensed. I like more milk in my flat white than my husband does. That’s not a problem. With the push of a button, we both have our individually-tailored perfect drink. - Some of the app features are really great, especially the bean flavor profile— super helpful when you’re first getting the machine dialed in. Is your espresso coming out too sour? Tell the app what kind of beans you’re using, and it walks you through the settings to change in order to get the right flavor out of your coffee. I was really surprised how well this worked. - Vast Variety: I have never wanted a coffee drink this thing can’t make. The list is ridiculously long! It’s fun to try new things. It even dispenses hot water for tea. Our Notes: - The “make a coffee remotely” option in the app makes zero sense because the machine does a cleaning cycle the moment you turn it on. Don’t use it. You’ll just end up with a watered-down drink. - You’ll want to use the included water test strip and adjust the coffee machine settings for your water as you’re first setting it up. Otherwise, it will assume the worst and prompt you to descale more often than you actually need to. - It self-cleans a lot, which is a good thing for flavor, but does go through a bit of water and want to be refilled after several drinks. It’s a little intimidating to set everything up at first, but the machine and app walk you through it. Overall, this thing gets daily use in our house and has made us hundreds of cups of coffee without breaking a sweat. It’s a sleek machine that fits well on our coffee bar. And it makes a wide variety of dang good coffee. We love our fancy robot barista!

This coffee maker is incredibly easy to use and worth every penny. No more standing in line, waiting for an eternity, and never knowing what I want! The cold and hot features are perfect, and the taste is fantastic. It’s also quieter than the older version, and it even self-cleans! The only downside is that I have to empty the tray often because it self-cleans, but that’s a small price to pay for such a great coffee maker.

Received and found it easy to assemble (few minutes, mostly unpacking.) So far I've tried about half of the hot menu items (none of the cold brew yet.) Dialing in the coffee beans went smoothly, the machine has a menu item that walks you through the process. Makes excellent espresso with good crema. User selectable milk dispenser from plain hot milk to extremely fine foam. Can also make hot tea and hot chocolate. (I've also made café Mocha's and salted caramel mocha.) Cleaning us very easy. You can easily dump the puck basket and the water collection tray dumped. The water container pulls out from the front and fills easy. The infuser assembly is located after removing the water container and is easily cleaned under running water. The machine fits comfortably under our overhead cabinets, but must be pulled out to refill the bean storage receptacle. I'm very satisfied with this machine and find it easy and convenient to use. (My previous machines include an Italian La Pavoni espresso machine and a semiautomatic Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine.)

I purchased this machine back in January and wanted to give some time before writing this review. I will start out by saying overall, this is a great machine. Many hot and cold drink choices. Very easy to use. The display guides you along and provides instructions on what to do next and how to do it. Very cool! The only draw back that I have experienced is milk drink serving temperature. I feel that this is a major issue with this unit. I followed the instructions as noted for a flat white and the serving temperature as measured by a calibrated digital thermometer is 125F where coffee serving temperature using the same thermometer is measured at 157F. I called DeLonghi customer service and had several discussions about this issue. I followed their instructions which included preheating the cup and also sent a video of making a flat white. They finally agreed to replace the unit. Welll………The new unit arrived and had the exact same issue!!! Flat white with medium foam (as recommended by DeLonghi) serving temperature measured at 125F I’m frustrated that I spent a lot of money on a “state of the art” expresso machine and still have to microwave my flat white after it is done brewing. My honest feeling is that DeLonghi knows about this issue and simply does not want to address it as you can see other reviews that also list cold milk drink serving temps. I hope this review helps you in making a decision to purchase or not purchase this unit. If you buy it and like milk drinks, make sure your microwave works!

This is my fourth De’Longhi super automatic espresso machine. For the last 20 years I have had one at the office and one at home. This latest one is my favorite. It makes the best tasting coffee ever. Adding beans to the hopper and cleaning the machine are improved over the older models. It has lots of bells and whistles which are nice but I do not use much. I like the responsive, color touch screen. It has wifi control which I never use. But it does remind me when to change the water filter and when to descale which are nice features. Best of all it makes the best Cappuccino- much better than I can get a most coffee shops. The texture of the frothed milk and the flavor are outstanding.

Haven’t gotten to try all the features yet but so far so good! Drinks turn out great as far as I can tell though i can’t say I have a lot to compare it to. Water lasts a few days in our house and the machine is easy to clear and refill as necessary. The only complaint I have is that I dropped the cold milk carafe and while the frothing mechanism was completely fine the part that holds the milk shattered and there is no easy way to replace it. Had to purchase an entire new apparatus (milk frother included) for $80 when it should have been less than $10 fora new plastic container without the frother. Replacement parts should be easier to obtain.

I've had this machine for nearly two years and I love it. One thing I noticed on other reviews is that the frother stops working. The fix is easy... just fill it with hot water and make 3-4 cups of hot milk. It'll clean the frother every time.

Love how easy this machine is to use. We have made several of the different drinks and they are wonderful. We no longer go to coffee shops. I can make all the coffee drinks we used to buy out.

Javais une très bonne machine a café la PHILIPS Série 5400 EP5444/50 LatteGo qui étais top mais celui-ci est carrément au dessu

ممتاز و احبه فعلا لكن وصلني بدون سائل ازاله الترسبات ومكانه بالصندوق فاضي ، ؟ هدا سبب نقص النجمه

Good quality

بجد من أجمد الاجهزه الي اشتريتها الماكينه دي بتقدر تعمل قهوه وتستخلصها بشكل مبهر من غير تسخين بفضل نظامها في استخلاص البن بدون تسخينه غير انها بتعمل مشروبات كتير وانها هي لوحدها بتطحن البن وبتعملك كل حاجه بدون تدخلك بجد من اعظم الحاجات الي اشتريتها

Está cafetera es una sultana! El expreso sale delicioso! Incluso hecho con un buen café descafeinado. Yo utilizo Illy en grano. Uno normal o el otro descafeinado. Se puede hacer el capuchino, pero no lo he probado todavía. Recomiendo sin la más pequeña duda esta cafetera que te dice los pasos a seguir, si necesitas poner agua o añadir café y también si lo quieres más o menos fuerte todo ello en una pantalla!!!
