5.0 out of 5 stars DeLonghi does not disappoint!

It makes a great cup of espresso with the crema (the lighter color of coffee on top of the dark) as it should be, and the milk steamer works really well (see the dollop of foam on top of the crema in the 2nd picture which turned my regular espresso into a macchiato). It's not overly fancy so it's easy to use, and the price is great. Sure, the drip pan shakes a little when the machine is getting ready to work it's magic so I had to hold the glass until the machine got going, but that's certainly not a deal breaker, nor is the fact that it's kind of loud too because that's just how espresso machines are. Also, keep an eye on how much you want to drip in your cup because it won't stop on its own. I'm also working on perfecting how finely to grind the espresso beans & how firmly to press the tamper. The first cup I made dripped pretty slowly & when I removed the boiler outlet (the part that holds the coffee) there was some water on top of the grounds that spilled off, but that was because (& the instructions cover this) I'd ground the coffee too finely, filled the bowl too high & pressed the tamper down too firmly. I brewed my next cup doing none of those things & it came out much better. I'm having fun experimenting with it. Overall I'm very impressed. One last thing, the style and size of this DeLonghi is perfect.
5.0 out of 5 stars Buy if Willing to Put in the Effort
This is a review of De'Longhi Stilosa Espresso MachineBottom line up front: Good beginner espresso machine at the sale price of $85. If you are willing to dip your toe in the espresso making waters at home and you have the time and patience, buy it. If you want a quick, hassle-free cup of joe, look elsewhere (I’m thinking drip, pour over, Nespresso, etc.).Bolo shipping: Bolo shipped it in its original box with a shipping label slapped on it. This arrived on the front porch, so beware. De’Longhi’s packaging was good. The machine was packaged in a pasteboard inside the box making it recyclable (no styrofoam).The good: It does what it says. I have not previously made any espresso drinks. I have about two weeks of experience and it makes espresso. Follow the directions (more on direction in “the bad”), use espresso coffee and you’ll get an acceptable shot of espresso (see learning section). The milk frother works after some practice. This machine is manual. You start the flow of water and then you stop the flow of water. You switch to steam and use the switch on the side to froth your milk. This is good because you are in control.The bad: Well it requires some education on how to make espresso and what exactly a shot of espresso is and a cappuccino recipe.The directions are kind of IKEA-ish with pictures and a sparse number of words. The machine is manual and you have to learn to use it and pay attention as you use it. I am apparently a messy barista. I find it necessary (maybe I”m obsessive compulsive) to thoroughly clean the machine every time I use it. This is a bit more intense than the directions that say to clean out the portafilter and clean the frother each use with thorough cleaning being every 200 or so shots. Overall, a Nespresso machine would be much easier.What I did: I’ve had this machine for about two weeks and have used it for about 10 mornings. The first morning my lovely wife dumped her cappuccino out and went for the keurig. I had some issues this day using the frother and ended up with very watered down steamed milk. The second morning I used the Cappuccino cups (2.9 ounces, kitchenables available here on Bolo). Packed the double shot portafilter and made two nice, small cappuccinos. Then on the third day, I moved to a larger cup. I made my wife a decaf cappuccino in an 8 ounce mug using a double shot (2 ounces) of espresso, steamed milk and froth to fill the mug. Again, this was dumped out. I made myself a lungo using the double shot portafilter and filled a 12 ounce mug about half way. Mine was tasty and I drink my coffee black, in general. About the third day I was getting the cappuccino thing down. Double shot of espresso, equal amount of steamed milk (by volume) and equal amount of froth (1 part espresso, 1 part steamed milk, 1 part froth). This amounted to about two-thirds of the 8 ounce mug. What kind of coffee did I use? I bought a bag of the Gevalia Espresso Dark Roast and a can of Illy ground coffee espresso Classico Decaf Roast.Learning: It seems that a shot of espresso is one ounce and a double shot is two ounces. I got this information from Google search. You need to keep this in mind as you are making your espresso as this is how the two portafilters are sized. I also used google to find the cappuccino recipe and saw some other espresso recipes (americano, latte, flat white, lungo). Also I still need to experiment with different coffee brands. I have no intention of going all out to grind my own and weigh the beans.
5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible value that makes good espresso with some hacks
If you are interested in learning about espresso but don’t want to shell out hundreds at this point then this machine is perfect.Check out Lance Hendrick’s YouTube video about this machine to understand why it is a good buy.Here are things I’ve learned for making great espresso with this machine:I. Do not use the pressurized portafilter that comes with the machine as is. You have two options: (1) remove the pressurization component (again see Hendrick’s video) and also pull out (with pliers) the black plastic funnel component leaving just the basket and filter screen inside the portafilter. See photo. (2) buy a regular 51mm non-pressurized portafilter to use instead. See photo. The only problem with (2) is that the fit might not be perfect and so you might get some leakage. That was my experience. Doing (2) for a while (leaks and all) was helpful to learn what good extraction should look like. You get down and watch how the espresso comes out. It should come out even and creamy. It should taste good. You experiment with grinds, beans, volume, tamping pressure till it gets there. Once I had things dialed in, I went back to (1) to avoid the occasional leakage. If you do (2) and there’s no leakage then you’re all set. (If you use the portafilter as-is out of the box you will get weak pseudo-espresso with fake crema from the pressurization.)II. Get a better tamper. The plastic one that comes with the machine is awkward and feels like it can break. You can see the one I use on the pic. It wasn’t expensive but it’s good quality. Good tamping is crucial to develop the right puck pressure with the coffee itself.III. Use freshly roasted coffee that is freshly ground for espresso. Freshness has been the biggest factor in getting tasty espresso. I bought a burr grinder on Bolo that was also pretty cheap but does espresso-fine grind. It’s worked well (although I recognize it may not have the longest lifespan, we’ll see). The key has been buying freshly roasted coffee. It doesn’t have to be the most expensive, just fresh. So if your Trader Joe’s moves its whole bean coffee quickly, you might be better off buying that than the bag of beans that’s been sitting around for a month at the fancy coffee shop. The difference is huge.IV. Keep things clean. After I pull a shot I take off the portafilter and run water through to flush out the residue from the machine head and wipe it with a sponge. Maybe once a month an unscrew the filter from the machine head and rinse it out. I knock out the espresso puck and rinse the portafilter thoroughly. The water should come out looking like an even shower, no lines or unevenness. It makes a difference for the espresso. Keeping things clean helps in getting good consistency.I don’t use the steam wand, so can’t comment on that.After dialing things in I am getting tasty espresso that is as good as most coffee shops or restaurants nearby. Of course if I want to treat myself I can go to one of the more exceptional coffee shops, but now I have a benchmark to know whether they are doing anything special.
Great value!

I’m super happy the same thing was available these two years later. It’s simple to operate, makes great espresso with awesome créma and cleans up super easily. The noise level is among the best out there.
Bonita, prática.
Agora é praticar até extrair um espresso, pois a máquina proporciona uma ótima experiência pra quem gosta e aprecia um café bem tirado. Uma dica valiosa: Você nunca vai tirar um café com crema se você não usa um moedor manual, esqueça os de hélice (que são trituradores).
Compre una y no funciono
Compre una y al momento de probarla esta no salía agua. Trate de purgarle por temas de que a veces las válvulas están llenas de aire y es algo relativamente normal. Al final no resultó.Hice el proceso de devolución y me animé a volver a pedir otra. Me parece un producto muy bueno, lastima que tuve una primera no muy buena experiencia inicial.Estaré actualizando ahora que me llegue la segunda y actualizaré.Continuación... 21 de julio 2024Pues he recibido el reemplazo el día de hoy y es una chulada. Después de hacerle el proceso de uso inicial de inmediato la utilicé y les diré que es muy práctica. La preparación es rápida y la calidad del café es muy buena. Es una excelente adquisición respecto a precio/calidad. El único detalle que vería es que el tamper podría mejorar. Fuera de eso esta muy bien.Ampliamente recomendada para los que les gusta un buen café y no tienen mucho tiempo para prepararlo.
Easy To Use and Makes Good Coffee
Setting the machine up was very quick and easy. Works very well and pulls good espresso shots. It also steams milk very well and makes good lattes. I would recommend for the price it is at.
Türkiyede çalışmıyor almayın
Ürün voltajı 110V bu sebeple şalter attırıyor çalışmıyor. Bolo Türkiye bu ürünü kesinlikle satmıyor olmalı çünkü Türkiyede çalışabilecek bir ürün değil ben de teknik servise götürdüğümde öğrendim. Bilginize.
