According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
With the De'Longhi La Specialista Arte EC9155.MB, you can make an fresh espresso in a user-friendly way. All the important barista tools are included, like a milk pitcher, tamper, tamping mat, dosing and tamping tool, and cleaners. You can put the dosing and tamping tool on the portafilter, so you won't spill coffee and can tamp the coffee straight in the portafilter. The piston machine will grind the coffee in the built-in bean grinder. This coffee grinder has 8 grind settings, which allows you to always choose the best grind size for your coffee. The machine has 3 preset recipes, an espresso, americano, and hot water. With the steam wand, you can froth milk for a cappuccino or latte macchiato. But feel free to create your own recipe, as that's what the machine was designed for in the first place.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to prepare a tasty coffee with a piston machine. This is a lot less easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.

The De'Longhi La Specialista Arte is ideal if you are getting started with a piston machine for the first time. It is very user-friendly and you get all the tools you need to make a cup of coffee. In terms of design, it is an eye-catcher on the counter and does not take up more space than necessary.
User friendly What strikes me is that this piston machine is pleasant to use. For example, you will receive a guide next to the machine with which you can set up the coffee machine completely. From preparing for use to setting up the bean grinder. Very nice if you are not yet familiar with these settings. The bean grinder is integrated into the device, so you don't have to purchase a separate bean grinder. You choose between 3 hot drinks, namely an espresso, americano or hot water.
Making coffee with the barista tools You make a cup of coffee with different tools. The box contains a tamper, tamping mat, milk jug, cleaning supplies, tamping and dosing tool. This means you get everything for the piston machine at home, except for a knock-out box. The tamping and dosing tool lends a hand when making coffee. This way I spill less ground coffee on the counter and I push the coffee straight into the filter carrier. You don't have to use the tool. This makes the piston machine suitable for both beginners and advanced users.
Set to your taste The quick guide tells you not only how to set up the machine for the first time, but also how to adjust the settings to your favorite taste. This way you can set the grinding degree, amount of coffee and temperature. You can choose between 8 grinding degrees, 30 settings for the amount and 3 temperature settings. The bean grinder grinds very fine, making a good espresso easier.
Frothing milk with the powerful steam pipe I find that the steam pipe has a lot of spice, so a powerful steam comes out and your milk is frothed in no time. The only drawback to the steam pipe is that it is difficult to change position. As a result, your freedom of movement is limited and you can only froth the milk in a few corners.
