Dedica Style - Manual Espresso Machine Manual Milk Frother Red | Compact Coffee Machine, Espresso and Cappuccino, ESE Pods Suitable, Control Panel with Buttons, Width 15cm, EC685.R

This is a very good coffee machine that produces consistently enjoyable espresso without taking up too much space on the worktop. It is straightforward to use once you get familiar with it, and the milk frother is useful for making cappuccinos and other milk-based coffees at home. The machine is regularly reduced, and at its sale price I think it offers particularly good value. You still need decent coffee and a little practice with the grind and amount used, but the machine itself is more than capable of producing a proper cup of coffee. A good choice for anyone who wants to move beyond pods without buying a much larger or more expensive machine.

Long lasting space saving machine! Works like a charm and I do descale it properly and I use distilled water. I love it because It occupies very little space and I have a grinder too from Delonghi so my coffee is freshly brewed everyday! I got one of the bottomless porta filter coffee handle and basket. The cream, aroma and taste are better than a coffee shop. I was on a budget when I bought this and it saved me a lot of money as I stop buying coffees outside and also I paid a reasonable amount for a coffee machine that has its own tank rather than needing pressure and other connections. I make a lot of coffees everyday and I’m very pleased with it! It is a bit loud but its fast so that is no bother to me. When I hear the sound and smell of fresh coffee, I know my day begins the right way thanks to Dedica Delonghi and I didn’t even try to create a headline 😂 They better give me royalties for this! Now seriously if you want a no fuss, good quality at a reasonable price coffee machine that lasts in time, then get this one. I had several coffee machines before this but stopped searching with this one. My family has sage and other more expensive coffees but I prefer mine and now I could afford a more expensive one but I’ll stick to this one as this is how pleased I am with it. Is the speed of it that I love!

Simple little machine very compact and pleasing to the eye and for the price it’s brilliant . Makes a decent tasting drink but you do need to use decent coffee to start with . Not too noisy can be used when others are in bed and won’t disturb them . We like a small mug of espresso instead of a shot so we press the 2 mug button and then use the milk frother to dispense hot water to make a decent size drink works well

I love my coffee and I have wanted an espresso machine with portafilter for a long time. I had tried the pod machines and used refillable pods, grinding my own beans. But I just knew I could get better coffee so I picked this up when the vine sale hit and it looked more reasonable in price. I am so happy I did. It's like night and day in comparison. I chose the silver look as it's just a metal finishing and easy to wipe down. Out the box it is easy to assemble. You get the machine, a tiny drip tray, portafilter handle, 2 portafilters (a 1 cup, and a 2 cup), a hefty instruction book and descaling fluid (cleaning). Make sure you follow the instructions about 1st use to flush out any nastyness. Espresso is easy even for a novice. Just pop the filter into the handle, fill with ground coffee and tap down with tamper. Then twist the handle in until it locks. There's a power button on the side and when the lights stop flashing hit the 1 or 2 cup option. In 30 seconds you'll have a tasty espresso. You can then hit the 1 or 2 cup option to add more hot water and make it a longer drink. The filter holder twists in securely. It is a bit tough if you're not used to it. So just hold the top of the machine to get a bit of leverage. The filters are pressurised and use a small point in the middle. I changed them over for a more open basket. There's also a rubber seal which can effect flavour. Inside the holder/ handle there is a plastic flow director... Again it's plastic which is porous and can leach bad flavours and effects the taste so if you remove it (1 screw underneath) your coffee will taste wonderful again. The water tank is easy to fill and big enough for an afternoon or day of making coffee. The wand for making hot water or frothy milk works a treat. It is tricky at 1st but try and get the spout just on the surface of the milk and adjust up or down a little . When you get the hang of it it makes wonderfully frothy creamy milk for espressos. It does recommended semi skimmed but full fat milk is wonderful to do if a little more tricky. You can also just get hot water from the wand for tea or top ups which is a great excuse to replace the kettle. Just make sure you undo the wand and rinse and wipe after use to keep it fresh. The drip tray is pretty useless unless you are only using tiny mugs. It gives you very little clearance. So I just removed it and used the lower one, then wipe with a cloth. Noise. This is not quiet but it is a serious machine. As long as it is in a separate room from the family you will be ok. If you have an open plan kitchen / living room you might be banished to another part of your home with the machine. Space. This has a fantastic narrow profile so it takes up the same width of counter or desk space as a kettle and because it has a water tank you can set this up in almost any room of your house or office. There is enough space on the top to sit a couple of mugs which is great for sleepy morning prep. Cleaning is really easy and there are lots of accessories available for this machine to. Good quality and value. Highly recommended. Thank you for reading my review. I hope you found it useful

I have had the Dedica Style for a week now and I am very impressed. I have been using it to make espressos, cortados, cappuccinos and americanos. All have been excellent. I would say that the instructions which come with the machine are pretty poor, you can probably get better instructions where the machine is listed on the Amazon website. I would also recommend looking at videos on youtube that describe the milk frothing process - it will definitely help you use this machine to greater effect. After watching some my technique definitely improved. My only problem is that I haven't been sleeping that well because I have been drinking so many cortados! - my go to when it comes to coffee. I would also recommend getting a couple of barista jugs in different sizes so that you can do single or two cups, this also saves on the milk. The machine looks well on the kitchen worktop and I have not had any issues with things breaking. Filling with water is very easy and cleaning after use is quite simple and only takes a few seconds. The first time I used it the frother did come off in my hand, but that was because I used a twisting motion when wiping it down and that is how you remove it to clean it properly! It took me a short while getting it back on because I hadn't taken note of its orientation before it came off. I would recommend you practice removing it first so that you see how it sits and how it comes off before it does so without you knowing what happened. Noise level is not obtrusive. Anyway, if you are using the frother correctly there should be a high pitched noise from it at the start of the process - again check out videos on youtube. Water capacity is good - I only need to refill after a couple of days, although, as I have said previously, I mostly make cortados so I am only making 'one shot' each time. If you want to use full size mugs/cups with it you will have to remove the drip tray, but it comes off easily. I was a bit concerned when I ordered the machine due to a few poor reviews but, going by my own experience, I would have no hesitation in recommending it.

I bought it based on huge positive reviews but, I was not happy with its build quality, the frother is not user friendly to use. Most important part of my 1 star is I have been given a faulty device, where it has multiple problems as below:- - coffee holder pot gets stuck inside the machine (photo attached) - coffee holder won’t fully close as it’s extremely tight - the device gets extremely hot. I couldn’t even try second cup as the pot is stuck. The coffee holder handle is so difficult to close the whole machine moves its position and it’s definitely not smooth at all. I had only one coffee, and used the frother once as well. It is extremely noisy for both operations and gets seriously hot, now I cannot comment is it because my device was faulty or rest of the people’s tolerance standards is much lower than me. Given that its built quality is not at good standard and I had an unsatisfactory user experience, even if they offer a replacement I won’t be happy or confident to buy same product.

This is a very compact machine. Very easy to use as switch it on, sort out your portafilter etc and when ready lights go solid. It is very quick to heat up for coffee and steam. It has 4 buttons single shot, double shot cold brew and steam. Push the button for what you want. You can change the temperature by pressing the buttons in a set sequence bit of a faff so you wouldn't want to change everytime. The steam wand is noisy, quick and easy to get hot steamed milk took a bit more practice for foam. I like an espresso but am not super technical about it so this is good for me as easy to use and makes a decent drink. My partner assures me the cold brew is not as good as an overnight but great for a 5 minute version and expect it will get a bit more use in summer. Overall very pleased with it.

My first impression was that it was a beautiful and compact machine that would look lovely in my kitchen to replace a 5 year old pod machine which I felt was not environmentally friendly. I read the instructions carefully because that's the kind of person I am. I suspect that if you are not a read the instructions kind of person you may be disappointed with the coffee that you get! So, I cleaned it as instructed and set it up. Then I ran the circuit program to clean the insides. No problem at all. Now, I live in a hard water area so wanted to change that setting. I read the instructions again and made my first attempt, this resulted in my getting water everywhere. I realised that I hadn't been quick enough to press the right button and it made me a cup of coffee instead. I suggest removing the drip tray and putting a container under the outlet when in programming mode, just in case. Some reviews say that the coffee isn't hot enough. Well, you can change the temperature of the water. I like mine hot so I changed the setting to hot, it made very hot coffee. I like espresso, cappuccino and flat white. Espresso is easy, just use the 1 cup basket. The first time I tried the coffee took ages to come through, I realised that I'd tamped too much. The second time was much better. However, I need to mention my next issue, I really really struggled to twist the handle to lock the holder into place. I found myself wrestling with the machine for several minutes. Having used it for a few days now, it does get easier and it locks into position without the wrestling. Note that the tamper that comes with the machine is okay but you need to hold it at the bottom, if you push the top, it bends alarmingly. I bought the wood and metal tamper which is much easier to use. Cappuccino etc is also easy once you realise how the frother works. I recommend watching a YouTube video but basically you pop the ring up for hot milk and down for frothy milk. To get the wand off, twist to the right and pull down. It's easy once you know how. Cleaning it was straightforward. My final choice is for a mug of coffee, and I do have a few of these every day! To achieve this I reprogrammed the 2 cup button to run more water through the machine using the 2 cup filter basket and 10g coffee. I have a slightly larger mug too, to fill this one I use 12g ground coffee, my reprogrammed 2 cup button, and then the default 1 cup button to get an extra 60ml of water through. I absolutely love, love, love this machine. It makes perfect coffee every time xxxxx
