Espresso Made Easy
on July 29, 2024
Posted by: mrsmcgo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was chosen by Influenster to receive this
DeLonghi espresso maker in exchange for my honest review. Although I LOVE espresso I had never made it before without help and I have to say this machine made it incredibly easy. Once you take everything out there isn’t much you need to do other than clean a few parts and fill up the water tank. The easy instructions explain how to set everything up (there is also a QR code with an easy video) and once it’s set up you just have to run through a few settings and then you are on your way to making espresso, fancy lattes, machiattos and cappuccinos! I was a little intimated with the machine until I realized just how much it does for you! You put espresso beans at the top and the grinder is built in so you don’t have to grind and pack down the grounds, everything is done for you. All you need to do it fill with beans, add milk to the steamer and choose your selection and the machine takes care of the rest. It has a cleaning button so after you use the machine it rinses it out with hot water. If you are a beginner to making espresso this is the machine for you. My 13 year old son made some fancy drinks with very little effort (he doesn’t drink them he just likes making them lol). The machine has settings for hot water, coffee, espresso, cappuccino and latte macchiato. There is also 3 different coffee bean settings (I don’t like mine extremely strong so we stuck to the first setting. You can also use the x2 button to do a double shot of espresso. I can’t recommend this machine enough, especially if you are a beginner and want minimal effort to make fancy espresso drinks.

Delicious Espresso from the comfort of my home
on July 28, 2024
Posted by: ampersand
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Magnification Start Espresso Machine makes an amazing espresso or beyond to get your morning going. It comes equipped with an attached frother to enhance the perfect espresso and offer many different types of beverages at the press of a button. This machine will save me money because I can skip the coffee shop and brew the perfect cuppa from the comfort of my home. The machine takes both whole ground beans or pre-ground coffee and brews an espresso (or latte macchiato, or cappuccino, or coffee) to perfection. There’s a slight learning curve when you get the machine—lots of buttons and lights on the machine—but pretty user friendly after a quick read through the instructions. It’s easy to take apart and clean and has a self cleaning cycle at the beginning and end of each use of the machine, (but still needs a solid rinse after each use). Your beverage comes out at a nice, very warm temperature, not piping hot. I’ve removed one star because you can’t use the steamer without brewing an espresso at the same time—I’d love to be able to make a cup of steamed milk in the evening or add some steamed milk to my tea. That doesn’t take away from my enjoyment of my new DeLonghi Espresso machine. So excited to have so many professional quality brewing options on my kitchen counter!

Life’s too short for bad coffee!
on July 28, 2024
Posted by: naomir98
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received this auto latte machine courtesy of DeLonghi and Influenster in exchange for honest review. The wrong manual came, one piece of instructions is only in foreign languages, some QR codes don’t work, proofreading in quick start guide is sub par, and there are buttons referenced not on my machine. So confusing. Ultimately I know how to run one of these already, due to using a Phillips brand one at my dads. So I get it, I learned how to navigate this already. It’s pretty slick. Loved learning how to navigate the grind of the beans for optimal crema, and grateful for a milk assembly that goes in the dishwasher! To be able to make your own customized espresso drink at home is fire. You can even make a quick decaf drink with ground roast popped in the top, no problem. This is a breeze. It comes with a filter but you’re not obligated to use it. Remember tho it will enhance your coffee experience! Every home should have one of these bad boys.

Great machine for brewing of variety of drinks
on July 28, 2024
Posted by: erins10
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this espresso machine! Makes it so easy to quickly brew up a latte or cappuccino, as well as straight coffee or espresso or even hot water for tea. It took a little bit of learning with the help of the booklet with easy to follow instructions plus some YouTube videos. It holds a lot of coffee grinds so you do not have to empty it often. It is a loud machine, which is probably expected and similar to your coffee shop machine. We did find a couple challenges with it and that was that you could only use one type of bean so whereas my husband loves regular and I like decaf, we cannot both use it. But it does have an option to put ground coffee, one scoop at a time into the machine, so that is our solution to both have the type of cup we enjoy. You also cannot see how many beans are in the machine and if it’s close to running out and it does not seem to alert you until they are gone, once the beans are in the machine, not easy to get them back out. But overall really great addition to our kitchen!

It does it all!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What I did forget to mention in my video is that it grinds up whole coffee beans and if I want, I can just press the button and makes my coffee with the whole beans and it just grounded up. It also has an option to add your own grounded up coffee beans. It comes with a scoop for measurement and on the top of the machine there’s a little door where you open and put your scoop of coffee in there and press the button of whatever drink I want. In front of the machine, there’s an attachment that I can choose to have hot water for my tea. I can choose to take off that attachment and add the milk froth or attachment so I can make lattes. What I did find a little confusing was when I opened up the front part to clean it out. It’s all in one as the unused grounded coffee all the way in the back section and then the used coffee in the front so I cannot just take the dirty use coffee and rinse it. I would have to take everything off and clean it out.
Another thing to know is that it is super loud when it’s making a drink. It does take a lot of electricity as my breaker popped a few times.
