About this deal

Cleaning the machine is an absolute doddle. A descaling kit is provided with the machine, and there is a descaling mode which you can trigger at the touch of a button, and also a flush function which you should use regularly. The brewing unit comes off completely, so you can give it a thorough clean when required (every couple of months or so should be fine).

You also have seven different coffee grinder settings to control how fine or coarse you want to grind your coffee beans, this is less than the 13-18 you get on a higher end bean to cup coffee machine.You can fit a standard mug (up to 110 mm high) under this one and that does help a lot. It does take a little time to master the technique of steaming the milk if you want to make lattes etc. Weighing approximately 10,000 grams, this coffee maker has dimensions of 285 mm in width, 375 mm in depth, and 360 mm in height. The appliance is designed to fit on a countertop, making it easily accessible for everyday coffee brewing. The "pre-ground coffee’ function has been selected without placing any preground coffee in the funnel. On the front of the machine there are two dials – one which gives you control over the amount of water that is used, which you will adjust again depending on what sort of coffee you are making (you’ll want between 30-44ml for an espresso, but you can experiment). You can get machines with an automatic milk setting, so you can just select which sort of drink you want and it will take care of everything else. They are great, but a machine like this gives you so much more control over getting your coffee just how you like it.

The descaling indicator may turn on after a few days of using the DeLonghi Caffe Corso ESAM 2800.SB coffee maker, even if you live in an area with soft water. This is considered normal. To disable the indicator light, follow these steps: De'Longhi Tubeless System reduces the amount of coffee powder left inside the grinder to a minimum so only newly ground coffee is used to brew your espresso. There is a button for ‘ECO mode’ as well, which will turn the machine off after a period of inactivity to save on its electricity consumption. Moving from the stand out plus to the stand out minus, cleaning routines seem to be a surprise to many. All machines need attention, but some more than others Here is where the barista in you gets to come out and play – the milk frothing nozzle rotates out, away from the machine, so you can get a good angle. Frothing milk is a difficult skill – it’s why people pay so much money for coffee in shops, so don’t expect to get perfect results the first time you use it. Take time to really learn the best techniques and your preferences – you’ve spent a decent amount of money on this machine, so it’s absolutely worth a little bit of time to make the most of it.The actual boiler that does the bulk of the work is completely removable. That really helps a lot when it comes to cleaning the inside of the machine. There is an adjustable steam option and a milk frother.

From time to time we hear from readers that swear by using bottled water for its purity, but that’s really not necessary – and we’ll hazard a guess that if you’re looking at a low end Delonghi machine like this Caffe Corso, you probably aren’t going to be looking to spend a fortune on bottled water either! If you’re happy to do the work yourself (if you can call it work), then Delonghi’s milk wands are actually among the better ones on the manual machine market. What’s more, for the price of their machines they’re pretty much unrivalled, so if you like coffee’s with milk, these are a great choice to consider.

It allows you to be able to get any size (within reason) under the nozzle , so if you want your coffee in a mug then so be it. The maximum clearance is 105mm, which is about 10mm more than a standard mug
