Dedica Maestro is Magnificent!
The Dedica Maestro Plus is super compact and lightweight, compared to some of the larger espresso machines that take up a lot of counter space. This sleek machine also comes with a quick start guide and there are many tutorials on Delonghi.com to get you started, especially if this is your first espresso machine. I was happy to see that this comes with single and double wall filter baskets, single for those expert, or more seasoned baristas and the double baskets which are perfect for beginners and when using pre-ground coffee. I did appreciate the tip to warm up your cups before making your drinks. I let some hot water sit in my cup for about 30-45 seconds prior to making my latte and it kept my drink at the desired temperature.Now the really good stuffâ¦ this device also has a top compartment to store your accessories and an auto steam wand with 3 preset milk temperatures and 3 selections for desired milk texture (microfoam, fine, and dense textures) so you can get creative with the steamed milk in your espresso beverages. The milk comes out sweet, light, and frothy. It also has a removable water tank and the compact design makes for easy clean up.This is my first espresso machine, and I could not be more pleased with the quality and beverage outcomes! This will save me a lot of money frequenting the coffee shops! I am excited to continue to craft different drinks and show off my new barista skills when we have company over and for the holidays. Well done Deâlonghi!

Great Tasting Espresso Fast!
My older De’Longhi Espresso Bar Pump machine decided its time on my countertop had ended, so I upgraded to the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus machine. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.So far, this is where the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus has stood out above other machines:Simple Interface: The De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus has a simple, user-friendly interface with easy-to-use controls, making it a great machine for both beginner and experienced espresso drinkers. The many buttons and easy-to-turn dials are well-placed and responsive, allowing for precise customization of one and two shots of espresso.Design: The silver metal brushed stainless steel finish gives the machine a sleek and modern look that complements my other countertop appliances. Its small and compact size makes it perfect for having its own space on the countertop without sacrificing other appliances.Maintenance: Cleaning and maintenance of the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus has been easy compared to the prior machine. The steam wand automatically purges after each use, and the removable drip tray and water tank make it easy to keep the machine clean and well-maintained. It is also top-shelf dishwasher safe.Heating Times: With its innovative heating system, the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus reaches the perfect brewing temperature in just 3 seconds every time, allowing me to enjoy my favorite espresso drinks without the wait!Consistency: One of the best points of the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus is its ability to consistently deliver high-quality espresso with every cup. The heating and temperature function of this machine ensures the perfect temp and flavor, while the automatic steam wand creates a velvety micro-foam for perfect lattes and cappuccinos every time. I am a big fan of consistency and that is something I know I will get with every cup of espresso from the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus.I highly recommend the De’Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus machine to anyone who is looking for great-tasting espresso fast!

Two Strikes
I purchased two of these machines. The first one stopped warming the milk within the first week in use. The second began leaking water from the tank two days after I began using it. A very easy to use machine, however, I just had bad luck I guess. The refund process is fast and easy.

This is going to be a long review. But quick overview – if you have never used espresso machines and have the budget for this machine, there will be no regrets. Just go ahead and buy it. This machine is a “semi-automatic” espresso machine due to its amazing auto-frothing wand. I was stuck between purchasing the more expensive, more prone to breaking automatic machine (you also have to do more maintenance to keep them healthy) as I was a beginner and was afraid I won’t be able to brew a good cup with manual machine. But this machine hits just the right spot. It gives you enough control to make you feel like a barista and it takes away just enough control so that you can never make bad coffee. :)Background:I’m not at all an expert in brewing coffee. So far, anytime I had coffee at home, I was using instant coffee. Eventually I got tired of the lack of richness in instant coffee, and I wanted to brew lattes, cappuccinos and anything coffee – right at home. With the real beans. This little machine helps me do just that – all while taking very little space and time. I have used the machine for past 5 days and I have never used one before. The quick start guide that came along helped me setup and brew the first cup in 15 minutes. That’s it! The guide is so simple and machine is so easy to use you won’t ever need to read the manual again probably.Looks and build quality:Beautiful metal finish. Very little plastic. Both metal and plastic are high quality. The black and metallic finish and the sleek build takes little space on your counter top. The number of components included are basically everything you will ever need to brew any kind of coffee at home. This is why I spent $100 more and bought this over purchasing other machines by competitors as they did not have everything I needed to brew a cup, so you would have to buy expensive third party parts causing you to end up spending even more than this machine. You get a scoop to measure ground coffee shot, a tamper, a tiny jug for frothing milk, portafilter (one and two shot, single and double walled) and even a tiny platform for smaller glasses that would cause splatters from dripping espresso. The water dispenser of the machine is big enough so you won’t have to worry about refilling for a week or two if you make 1-2 cups everyday.Usage:Now lets talk about ease of use. To brew a cup – you get ground coffee (or grind it yourself like I do), and get some milk in the jug provided with machine, filled half-way. Now put the grounds in portafilter (with your desired filter plugged in), press it firmly with the tamper until you can see the 3 marks on portafilter, put it on the machine and hit the espresso button. That’s it!Now for the frothing part (my favourite). Just put the jug under the frothing wand in the auto position. And twist the side knob to steam position. Based on the selected texture/temperature on the machine, you end up with the perfectly hot, perfectly frothed milk. Quickly wipe the steaming wand with damp cloth right after removing the jug after frothing (careful, it’s a little hot). Otherwise the milk dries up and sticks to the wand, slightly messier to clean.Maintenance:If you clean frothing wand after each use, clean the water jug every time you fill it up again and also clean the drip tray once a week, this machine will not disappoint you. The only other part is desalination, which you usually perform at frequent intervals depending on the water hardness in your region. But these 4 maintenance activities are the only ones you need to perform to keep the machine healthy.Thanks for reading the review, I hope it helps you make good decisions. Cheers! 🙂

It product top quality and very strong and proper espresso also the automatic froth maker is also working good. The only thing to notice is that it uses US pin and the power requirement is completely different from india, so u must use a stepdown transformer or else it will burn the machine

Soy principante en la preparaciÃ³n de espressos y esta cafetera lo hace todo sencillo. Vean los videos “how to” de la marca en youtube para que la sepan usar. SÃ³lo una observaciÃ³n: el portafiltro ya viene con un filtro puesto (no me di cuenta y estuve intentando meter otro por 30 min jajajaja). El papel para medir la dureza del agua viene en el manual. El espumador es sÃºper prÃ¡ctico y espuma adecuadamente. CÃ³mprenla sin dudar.
