According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
The De'Longhi Dedica Arte EC885.BY Gray is a compact piston machine with a powerful steam wand. The machine is 15cm wide, so it takes up little space on your counter. In addition to the machine, you receive a milk pitcher and a tamper, so you can start making coffee right away. Make a single or double espresso with the coffee machine. You can preheat your cup on the heating plate in advance, so the coffee doesn't cool down as quickly. All cups and mugs fit under the coffee outlet thanks to the removable double drip tray. It's easy to operate the machine with the 3 buttons on the control panel. After you make coffee, you can froth foamy milk with the powerful steam wand for a cappuccino or latte macchiato.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to make tasty coffee and it's not nearly as easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.

Very nice device, especially considering the price / quality ratio. Takes up little space on the kitchen counter, materials are sturdy, the coffee tastes good and the crema layer is perfect. Very handy is that with 1 push of the button you get a standard amount of water for an espresso and by holding the button you can make a lungo/americano by letting more water run through it. For a tasty cappuccino or latte, you have to get to work: the steam wand is definitely not suitable for beginners. With videos on YT or a barista workshop that should work in the future! ;)

Nice design, nice coffee. And it is important to me that it is indicated when the device needs to be descaled. The disadvantage is that the manual is in 100 languages. Too bad about the paper. Why not just ask when purchasing in which language you want the instructions for use?

We bought this device to replace coffee pods, a good decision!
