De'Longhi All-In-One Pump Espresso & 10-Cup Drip Coffee Machine with Advanced Cappuccino System

Here’s my honest review of my new Delonghi coffee/espresso machine. The machine is very easy to use. Brewing a pot of coffee is a little noisy but it’s got a built in filter, though I still use a cone filter as well because it’s easier to clean it out. The water for the coffee gets poured into right next to the filter then you close it up and push on for it to start brewing. You can program this to start at a specific time but I’ve not done that yet. The espresso side, there’s a water compartment in the back left side that easily comes out for cleaning or filling up. There are two buttons in the front on the espresso side. The top is pressed to have the heated water to come down through the espresso. I’m learning how to put the gadget/handle into the machine that has the espresso in it. It has to go in a specific way and tightens just so. With time I’ll better figure the correct way to do it. The second button underneath the first is for the steaming wand at the side. You push that button and there’s a turn dial on the side you use to steam your milk. So I’m happy with it and in time it’ll be easier to do my espresso drinks. 😁👍

Makes a great cup of hot coffee. Espresso machine leaks quite a bit of water into the drain tub, so be sure to empty it with each use. It has a little red indicator that floats up to warn you when it is time to empty. Easy to clean...handwash all the parts
