Pros and cons

According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert

With the hot water function, you can easily make a cup of tea or preheat your cup.
The cleaning indicator will tell you exactly when the machine needs to be cleaned.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to make flavorful coffee, and it's a lot harder than with a fully automatic espresso machine.
You'll have to buy a bean grinder before you can use it, since it's not included.

Description

The De'Longhi EC153.B Black is easy to operate, thanks to the large round dial at the front of the espresso machine. You can determine how much coffee to use for an espresso, as well as how firmly to tamp your grounds. This lets you influence the flavor of your cup of coffee in two ways. Do you have company? You can also use the machine to brew 2 cups at once. Heat up the cups with the hot water function first, so your espresso won't cool down too quickly. For those who love milk-based specialties, there's also a steam pipe, which lets you froth milk for a home-made cappuccino or latte macchiato.

Tip: don't forget to buy a separate coffee grinder to make coffee with freshly ground beans.

Review is 8,4 out of 10.

Two fine small cups of espresso.

Good espresso (with Starbuks Verona beans very finely ground)
Good price/quality
Always good taste, as long as the filter is rinsed with water IMMEDIATELY before AND after pressing the coffee under the tap AND in the machine.
Cups higher than 60mm will not fit properly.

As with any coffee machine, the same applies here: old coffee residues ruin the taste. SO RINSE IMMEDIATELY BEFORE AND AFTER SETTING. -- So before making coffee, rinse the filter tray and the separate holder under the tap. Then press coffee. IMMEDIATELY THEN empty the filter tray and rinse the filter and the loose holder under the tap again. Insert the filter and also briefly rinse the machine with water (to remove coffee residues on the nozzle). NOTE: do not use too much coffee, stay 1-2mm below the edge of the filter tray. Otherwise you will press coffee into the spray head.

Nice coffee from a very daily machine!

Very tasty coffee
Easy to use
Compact, can easily store it in the kitchen
Not so high, so you have to have low mugs. (or take out the drip tray for a while)

We live in a student house and are very happy with this device. The price-quality ratio is good! It's easy to use. Making coffee the first time with the manual, but after that it becomes clear. The built-in tamper is well thought out. It works well enough for a built-in plastic tamper, although we still consider buying a real tamper because it's probably a bit easier. The size itself is nice, it does not take up more space than other normal coffee makers. A disadvantage is the height, only low mugs fit underneath, possibly slightly higher ones if you remove the drip tray and then put the mug underneath. The steam pipe for frothing milk is nice, but it sometimes makes a bit of noise with us. The device is also easy to clean and the water reservoir is easy to refill because you can take it out.
