Great review mate, we are waiting for our DeLonghi to arrive and we are even.more excited about this Coffee Machine after watching your review..We recently bought a Spector coffee Machine and had nothing but problems with it ,from the day it arrived.We bought it online and had to go through so much drama getting a refund.. But we finally got our dow back and we straight away bought this DeLonghi..fingers crossed it turns out to be just as good as hour DeLongi ..thanks again mate, Brett and Catt down under in Australia
Great review! This is the best demo I've watched - and I've watched many! I just bought this machine and I'm so excited to try it out! We currently have the Delonghi Dedica Deluxe, and I think this is going to be such a nice upgrade!
Thank you for the very well made video. I own the machine for some days now, and I am very happy with the coffe results. The video helped me with some fine tuning, on "how the pros do it" 👍
Hi just asking, when im trying to extract ground coffee, i noticed theres some water coming out as well, and the finished product on porta was soaked with water is this normal or it has something to do with the settings thanks
Just got my machine and when grinding using 30 with A grind setting of 2 the portafiller was full to the top With my previous Dedica machine I found an 11 second grind was adequate for a double shot. Guess I have to play around starting at say grind size 4 with a time of 15 seconds and see how that turns out. My first espresso was on the bitter side so not sure why that was. Love the video and my new machine
anyone can answer the below for me I got this model. a. I cant get crema in espresso. I am doing single shot as I am making for myself. Grind setting tried was 5 and 3 with doze level 15 b. I cant make a foamy cappucino out of it. Texture is same as tea.
Hi. Enjoyed the review. I have the delonghi dedica which is smaller than this one and I was looking to upgrade to something a little better. My budget is around 5-700 usd are there any other espresso machines that are similar in features/ price to this one that you could recommend that i could check out. Thanks.
The Sage Barista Express is another one not too far off this price. I have both the La Specialista and the Barista Express and I can say they are very similar machines, the De Longhi comes with more equipment and in my opinion a better look and better price, but the Sage offers a better grinder. I’d say that the De Longhi is more justified for being better priced, and would be a good upgrade from the Dedica. I think I bought my la specialista for 500€ and the Barista Express for 650€ for a very similar machine.
Great video, great review. I saw the productreviews and this midel has the best review of all midels that are available in AU retailers from $200 to $3500 mark. One thing that I didnt quiet catch in this video was that can you brew and steam at ghe same time make it quicker?
Why they make all coffee machines with very small room for cups not room for bigger cups i have to use two cups, one small cup for the coffee then change it to a bigger cup and put the milk all separately and the frother too short
This is a mashine for those who want to spend a lot of money thinking it can prepare good coffee. Unfortunately, it cannot. Delonghi ECP makes even better drinks for much lover price. For good coffee you need a good micrometric grinder and temperature stability.
I think you use too much water, I mean it seems an espresso you drink everywhere but in Italy. Besides, too many maneuvers. Everything should be simpler and quicker
I received an email to call customer service about my bad review. Of course the number was to someone that couldn't do anything but offer me a 20% off coupon! Why would I ever want a 20% coupon for another Delonghi product???. She asked if I had a reference number or anything. Of course the email they sent me was automated and no why to link it to my review. Why would they? They don't really care to help me in anyway or they would have left a number to talk to someone about the review I left. I asked to be transferred to a supervisor. The lady couldn't even spell my name right and of course we got disconnected. Delonghi's response to any review that is bad is fake as their customer service. I live in one of the largest cities in the USA and would had to drive or mail my unit over 3 1/2 hours from where I live to the only authorized service center in all of Florida! The customer service couldn't even give me a service provider in the county of Broward County Florida! BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE ONE!!! I tried calling every coffee place from Fort Lauderdale to Miami and nobody would work on it, or even look at it. I am done with Delonghi and all their products FOREVER! I will make sure I post it on all the media outlets I can, of my experience. WORSE PURCHASE I EVER MADE Purchased this machine in 9/2019. Had to send back to have it worked on twice. Thank God it was under warranty for 3 years. They even had to replace the tray, frother sliding plastic housing that slides up for no foam and down for foam and the grinder. Warranty just expired in 9/2022 and of course it is falling apart again. Needs gaskets replaced, the grind control knob made of cheap plastic broke off and I maybe have set the grind twice since I have owned the machine. The housing starting coming apart and this machine is never moved. I am bringing my 9 YEAR OLD BREVILLE BARISTA back home from the office in place of the LA SPECIALISTA. I have never had a problem with the Breville machine. Guess I will take the La Specialista to a small appliance repair to see if it is even worth fixing. If not, in the trash it goes. I love the look of it and was hoping it would last for more than 3 years. Quality in my opinion is really poor!
@@suew4609 i received mine about a month ago great so far, don't have anything to compare it to really but it's been working well and makes decent coffee. If you have a specific question maybe i can answer
@@KebabEater I went ahead and ordered the DeLonghi. I had seen a couple things about longevity issues with both the DeLonghi Specialita Arte and the Breville Express. Glad to know yours is working well!

This is best demo on the Arte I've seen so far. Great job and thank you!

The best video on RUclips for the demo of the ARTE THANK YOU!
Really solid review. Highly influenced my decision, thank you!
Thank you for the very well made video. I own the machine for some days now, and I am very happy with the coffe results. The video helped me with some fine tuning, on "how the pros do it" 👍
by far the best guide ive seen for this machine
I recently bought one of these and I love it
Hi, do you still love this machine, is it worth to be it?
Really enjoyed this demonstration, learned heaps, thank you!
Great review - I'm battling between this one and the Breville Barista express, I'm really starting to lean towards this one!
Same with me 😢
@@khawlita6036 I got the DeLonghi and no regrets - it's been fantastic!
Can we use this as well in a small business coffee bar?
Great review straight to the point. Thank you

Nice video and great review! But can you please place the camera on a tripod, because I got seasick from all the movement! 🙂
great review ! thanks
Thank you! What machine would you like to see next?
Awesome mate
OMG ... that loud scream when you steam the milk ... HOLY MOLY ... lololol
Hi see how you put the knob on 30 for double shot, would that mean you put it on 15 for single shot?
Thanks
Thank you, Really enjoyed this demonstration,,, learned heaps 💐⚘️💐 30//09/2024
thanks for the review. is the filter for this model pressurised or none pressurised ?
I believe it's non-pressurised.
Are the grinder parts made from metal or plastic??
Hi , what dosing setting do you use for the single basket lavazza super crema ?
Can you explain the dosing part? How do I find the right dosing?
Has a great guideline when you read a little leaflet coming with a new machine
My timed dispenser doesn’t automatically turn off
Hi
where did you buy the cup to throw the coffee grounds?
Thank you ! 🤗🤗
What is the difference between this one and barista pro 878, which one would you recommend
I can’t get my portafilter to click into place to grind :/
Mines is making me hold it the whole time (manually)
Anyone have this problem?

Shot needs a finer grind, but looks good
Why did you discard the first 2 baskets of coffee ?
anyone can answer the below for me
I got this model.
a. I cant get crema in espresso. I am doing single shot as I am making for myself. Grind setting tried was 5 and 3 with doze level 15

@James Thanks for the recommendations.
@@james3634how do you feel now about both machines, I'm trying to decide between those two
Great video, great review. I saw the productreviews and this midel has the best review of all midels that are available in AU retailers from $200 to $3500 mark.
One thing that I didnt quiet catch in this video was that can you brew and steam at ghe same time make it quicker?
maybe it's too late but for other people, you cannot brew and steam at the same time.
@@ProDVIet93 but the process after is very fast after the brewing
Hello, can I ask what machine is at 1:00 in right down corner ?
Why they make all coffee machines with very small room for cups not room for bigger cups i have to use two cups, one small cup for the coffee then change it to a bigger cup and put the milk all separately and the frother too short
Bc it’s probably aiming to fit under a cabinet on top so needs to be less than 1.5’ roughly
You cannot clean the grinder properly - it’s the only model you can’t remove the burrs or clean it at all for the lifetime of the machine! 🤮
This is the only thing I don’t like about mine so far.
can you tell me how to clean the grinder in this machine?
ruclips.net/video/YSsJlhCzSvc/видео.html
With this useless brush. You can not take off the grinder
What number for old beans
This is a mashine for those who want to spend a lot of money thinking it can prepare good coffee. Unfortunately, it cannot.
Delonghi ECP makes even better drinks for much lover price.
For good coffee you need a good micrometric grinder and temperature stability.
the first 3 months the machine very good after that what ever I do continues to be always under extract, don't recommend 😔
same hire I will returned 3 months perfect after that RUBBISH don't buy, you will very desapoint :(
You just have to clean it
this machine is not good, fresh coffee, and is always under extraction what ever I do, I returned 2morrow :(
Returning mine today. Leaking underneath. “Optimal zone” pressure gauge is fake gimmick, there’s no pressure lol
Sounds like you both just can't accept you're not very good at making coffee haha
This machine very easy to broke. Im changed Machine 2times finally can’t change water or coffee…. Mechanical design very weak
I think you use too much water, I mean it seems an espresso you drink everywhere but in Italy. Besides, too many maneuvers. Everything should be simpler and quicker

Another crap coffee machine from Delonghi
When I make Americana it's not hot enough. what could be the problem please?
