According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
The De'Longhi La Specialista Maestro EC9665.M has 6 pre-set coffee recipes. Thanks to this, you can make a cappuccino, latte, flat white, coffee, lungo, or hot water for a cup of tea in a couple of minutes. This piston machine has a couple of useful features for the optimal coffee taste. For example, the sensor in the built-in bean grinder ensures a consistent grinding. As a result, all the coffee is ground to the same size and the taste of your coffee is consistent. The machine then tamps the coffee the right way with the automatic tamper. Do you want to make a milk specialty? You can choose between 2 milk frothing methods, fully automatic with the milk pitcher or the traditional way with the steam wand and a milk pitcher. Whatever works best for you at the time.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to prepare a tasty coffee with a piston machine. This isn't nearly as easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.

This device combines the convenience of a fully automatic machine with the quality of a piston machine. Really good espresso in a way that everyone in the house understands: Grind, pull the lever, place the piston, done. It also offers plenty of room to make more demands on the quality: the amount of coffee, the degree of grinding and the pressure when tamping. Fortunately, the manual really offers a helping hand, my attempts before I had properly set the espresso could be counted on two hands. From that starting point you can then continue puzzling to get it just that little bit better: dosing a little more or less, different beans, etc.
It's a beautiful device and with a little practice you can make delicious coffee every time.
