Your videos are always so thorough I love it! Been a subscriber for over a year and your videos are what helped me make my decisions on my coffee journey whether it be picking my machine, dialing in, choosing the right gadgets. Just wanted to say a massive thank you!🙏🏼
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your newsletter, Kev. That's not typical of me, I usually delete everything! Thanks for keeping me up to date on all your experiments with all the different coffee machines!
I watch all your videos and trust the information you put out. After mich deliberation I decided to buy the Delonghi Rivelia as due to a bisy life I needed rhe ease of convenience. I am not dissapointed it is a great machine. I managed to get one new for £540.
Love those Italian designs. Not sure if I should go for the popular Delonghi Arte or spend a bit more on the modifiable and repairable Gaggia Classic. Love to repair and tinker , so maybe the Gaggi would be my best choice. Great reviews on this channel - thanks!
I used to be a barista many years ago and was using a whopper of a machine. Navigating home barista machinery seems really complicated as there are so many out there. found this very informative and helpful
Really useful as always, my Bambino Plus has broken 😞, repair bills may mean I opt for a new machine, your reviews are my #1 choice. Like your style Kev,, straight talking, thank you 😉
Very entertaining and informative. Has all the info you need to know when buying but can never find out. Plus made me laugh which is always good. An added bonus is I'm sure the fantastic cappuccinos I had in Sicily several years ago were made on a delonghi machine very like those three so it brought back happy memories too 😁
Great review of the De Longhi machines. Very helpful and informative. I'm still not sure which would would be my favourite but the Maestro plus looks like my type of machine
Hahaha you're overview was entertaining and thorough...I'm still confused however, despite having 2 of these machines already. Think my brain can't quite keep up with yours!!! BTW, you are wonderfully NOTHING LIKE any AI ! Yay for you.
I really am thankful to you for your contributions. A bean to cup machine is almost always a more financially sizeable investment which makes it confidence building and comforting to find your reviews.
Great review, good level of detail. Always good to know what level of operator these things are aimed at - we have a mixed ability group making the coffee in this house. 😃
I'm definitely in the "just a coffee drinker" category. Definitely found your review interesting even if I'm not in the need for a new machine (we have a built-in coffee machine which is great).
That James Hoffmann pic 🤣 Thanks a lot for the comparisons ! I feel like the Arte could be a great alternative to the Bambino which is like 50-80$ more expensive here so could be a nice recommendation to friends wanting to try espresso out. Cheers :))
I’ve got an old Delonghi. As a novice I’m going to try the bambino plus. Are there are videos instructing what to do to make a great espresso? Thanks for review
The Maestro drip tray is slightly bigger capacity but it fills faster with the auto purging after steaming, most of which is internal directly into the tray, not via the wand, which seems a bit weird.
@@Coffee_Kev Oh I know, but I was more thinking of how lots of scales don't work on the old dedica drip tray because it's so tiny. (At least they don't on mine, I tried a couple of scales)
Properly laughed out loud when you flipped the storage compartment 😁
Love the review as ever kev! The Hoff will be very pleased to see his reference haha keep up the good work!
It's about time I had a proper coffee machine and this has really helped with deciding which one.
Your videos are always so thorough I love it! Been a subscriber for over a year and your videos are what helped me make my decisions on my coffee journey whether it be picking my machine, dialing in, choosing the right gadgets. Just wanted to say a massive thank you!🙏🏼
This is so helpful I’ve been on the fence about which machine to get so it’s useful to see you walk us through without too much complicated info
Find these reviews really useful and explain everything in a way anyone can understand
Excellent. A lot of information to digest so I will watch again with lots of pauses and notes! Cheers, Kev.
Really nice comparison video, a good balance between being informative and humorous :)
Enjoying this. Some a bit over my head as I’m a simple coffee maker drinker but very informative so every day is a school day

Funny and informative! Kev's always my 1st stop for reviews and info
I already own a flair 58 and a Decent so might as well learn about the entry level Delonghi’s, but more importantly here to support Coffee Kev lol
Love those Italian designs.
Not sure if I should go for the popular Delonghi Arte or spend a bit more on the modifiable and repairable Gaggia Classic. Love to repair and tinker , so maybe the Gaggi would be my best choice. Great reviews on this channel - thanks!
Liked the comprehensive explanations of the differences 😊
I really like the structured nature of the reviews
Great reviews. Delinghi is a good brand so would always go for one of their coffee machines.

Thanks for helping me to choose a coffee machine Kev.
The reviews are well done. I've been mulling over an espresso maker vs Bean to Cup for a while now. mainly around maintenance.
Love your videos and especially your blog and site gives me loads of useful information and tips all the time 👍
Very thorough and nicely filmed review, great content!
Thanks for being so dedicated to us at home baristas!

Played with one of the Arte in Curry’s and was just a bit flimsy to me. But then it’s a budget machine. 😅
Thanks for this!
Sounds like there are pros and cons to all of the machines. But your review is really helpful.
Thanks Claire :-)
keep up the great work
amazing reviews. Thank you
Excellent reviews

Great blog. Just discovered you
Love the look of these
Excellent content
Great info. Thanks
Good work!!
The one with the biggest drip tray of course 😂 (well and a longer steam wand would also be nice I guess).
The Maestro drip tray is slightly bigger capacity but it fills faster with the auto purging after steaming, most of which is internal directly into the tray, not via the wand, which seems a bit weird.
@@Coffee_Kev Oh I know, but I was more thinking of how lots of scales don't work on the old dedica drip tray because it's so tiny. (At least they don't on mine, I tried a couple of scales)
