De'Longhi Stilosa Ec260Bk – Barista Type Coffee Maker For Espresso, Lungo And Cappuccino, Designed In Italy

I received a faulty machine and Cart2Globe did not replace it in India. They also do not give a warranty card, which is required to repair the machine in India. I wasted INR 25,000 on it and there was no accountability from the seller. Buy it at your own risk in India, at least. Really disappointed.

Ürün voltajı 110V bu sebeple şalter attırıyor çalışmıyor. Amazon Türkiye bu ürünü kesinlikle satmıyor olmalı çünkü Türkiyede çalışabilecek bir ürün değil ben de teknik servise götürdüğümde öğrendim. Bilginize.

I have only had this purchase for about a week but so far I like it enough to keep it and write a review. I needed a size small enough for a micro unit apartment and that is what I love about this. Its light and compact, I cant take it out of the cupboard and use it in the mornings and then put it back so it doesnt take up counter space. The espresso that comes out of it so far has been perfect and very tasty. The crema on top is incredibly thick. However, the milk doesnt get very hot and it will only steam once and then wont steam again until another shot of espresso has been poured. This was dissapointing at first but it does make a perfect temperature coffee once the milk is poured with the espresso. Just have to drink it right away which is ok. For the price id say its a feature I can live with. It does make tasty coffee. Its going bad now unusable bad water leaking everywhere Update: Shortly after this review I emailed delongi and they sent me a brand new one because of the leaking. As for the milk not frothing I wasnt using it properly, they taught me how to use it through a video call. I wasnt turning the side dial on when I used it (I know silly mistake). It still works perfectly today after two years. Im loving this for the price. Still cant afford a $1000 machine if this ever breaks I will definitely buy again. Excellent customer service from delongi and they even sent me a bottle of descaller free of charge.

I'm new to making espresso myself, but an inveterate espresso snob. (Lived in Italy, now live in the SF Bay Area and have been spoiled for many years with artisan freshly roasted coffee pulled by masterful baristas.) I was excited about starting to pull my own shots, but had low expectations both of an entry level manual machine and of my own capabilities. I have to say, this machine has been absolutely delightful, and this is much easier than I thought. My first shots of espresso were delicious enough to sip straight. I have no desire to ever again drive somewhere and wait in line to pay $7 for an espresso drink. I have no complaints whatsoever about the espresso or the milk. In the weeks I've had it it's been very easy to make drinks just as good as the drinks at the top tier fancy ass roaster and cafe where I buy my beans. My sweetheart is in raptures with my lattes. I bought my own tamper (HIGHLY RECOMMEND), and a milk frothing jug as that's not included. Tamper came with a dosing funnel, which I like using (although wouldn't say it's crucial). Buying a knockbox next. Suggestions: Experiment with timing to see what tastes best to you. Taste your espresso black. Just a sip if you don't prefer straight coffee, but you need to know what the base of your drinks is really like in order to make excellent drinks. Well made espresso from good beans should be tart but not bitter, and never ashy or burned. Read the manual. If you don't read the manual, know that you need to pull all your shots before you froth milk, because you need to let the machine cool off after frothing milk or your next shot can be burned. Buy decaf beans too, so you can drink more coffee, and experiment with it more. And most importantly: always, always buy the fancy ass coffee beans. Freshly roasted ( within 3-5 days!), high quality. (I also want fair trade and organic). If you don't live by a roaster, buy beans green and toast them yourself! It's a whole hobby. Coffee starts to go stale days after it's roasted. Two weeks out is like old bread compared to fresh. And always grind your beans just before you make your drink. Another reviewer complained about crema with this machine. Not a concern if you have the right beans and the right grind! Thick and luscious. Anyway, this machine sold me on home espresso drinks! It's small enough for my tiny kitchen, makes stellar espressos and cappuccinos and lattes when fed good beans, and doesn't feel like something I need to upgrade anytime soon now that I'm into doing this.

Makes great coffee. Milk frother takes a bit of practice. I'll get there! Room for only short cups but you can remove the drip tray if necessary. Very pleased with it.

Me gusta mucho. Saca muy buen cafe. Las instrucciones no fueron suficiente completas y utilicé you tube para aprender a usarlo bien.
