Review on π€ De'Longhi Stilosa EC230.BK: Classic Barista Pump Espresso Machine for Authentic Espresso and Cappuccino - Black by Agata Schultz α
Best I have ever used, great product for anyone!
I do not advise those who do not want to bother with grinding, and do not want to learn how to beat milk correctly. Keep in mind that if you want this particular coffee maker, you will either have to buy a portafilter with an improver, or a coffee grinder, which will cost more than this coffee maker (we are talking about an electric one, if you take a manual one, you can take a more or less suitable one for 4-5 thousand, but this is not ideal). And that's not all, you will also need a normal tamper, scales and other various accessories to make coffee making more comfortable :) In the photo in a transparent glass, Irish coffee (whiskey, sugar syrup, americano, cream), on the other two in one mug of espresso (already a little shaken) and cappuccino with an incomprehensible pattern (I canβt draw, so it turned out what happened, let it be airy ball).

- Great coffee maker if you want to feel like a barista :) And here the horn without an improver and the cappuccinatore without a panarello nozzle play a big role. I will highlight the following advantages: - warms up quickly after switching on; - movable steam tube; - moderate vibration (it will not go anywhere by itself, but the plastic tamper can fall, while the mugs stand normally) and not very noisy (but still a little noisy, -1 point for noiselessness); - not expensive and with certain skills (which will come with experience) coffee will turn out better than in more expensive coffee makers with an improver.
- I donβt see any critical shortcomings, but still there are, although this is probably more nitpicking: - the upper part for heating mugs heats up slowly and does not really maintain the temperature of the mugs, but here, when the horn is warming up, you can draw water into the mug and put it on top, and then the mug will be warm; - the portafilter scrolls in the holder when it is removed from the coffee maker (this is no longer a nitpick) and at first it was problematic to get it, but then it got used a little and now with the help of your hands you can scroll it back to the desired position to remove it, but still it's superfluous manipulation (-1 point for usability just because of this); - the steam mode "cools down" quickly, but at the same time, milk can still be whipped with a certain skill :)
