De'Longhi Stilosa EC260.BK
The De'Longhi Stilosa is a compact semi-automatic espresso machine for people who want to make espresso and milk-based drinks at home without spending a fortune on a fully automatic machine.
Its 15-bar pump provides the pressure needed for espresso extraction, and it can make espresso using either ground coffee or ESE pods. The flexible steam wand lets you heat and froth milk for cappuccinos, lattes and other milk-based drinks.
It doesn't have a built-in grinder, so you'll need to grind, dose and tamp the coffee yourself. And because it's a semi-automatic espresso machine, you'll have to stop it manually when you've extracted enough espresso.
This machine is a great option for beginners and home coffee drinkers who want a relatively affordable way to learn the basics of espresso making while getting involved in the brewing process.
