Right, the Dedica (like almost all the budget machines) only has the pressurized portafilter, which can make a decent shot and is very forgiving if your grind or tamp is off, but is limiting as you develop your skills. The option of a non-pressurized basket gives more room to grow and achieve even better shots.

Thank you very much.

Hi, As i know, Latte and Cappuccino is the same. Cappuccino is more foamy one. and both are the same in terms of the technique. first espresso and then milk. and again as far as i know doing macchiato is the exact opposite. first foamy milk and then espresso. but this machine is filling the milk first in all three. i think something is wrong. i dont have any idea what the other machines do. if someone knows, i'd be happy to enlightens us...

i can watch Gail any day of the week - I just love her!

In that price range, you will likely get similar results to the Cafe Roma, but a couple machines we can recommend are the Delonghi Dedica, or for a bit more, the Breville Duo-Temp Pro. With the Duo-Temp, you get the option of using a traditional steam wand and a non-pressurized portafilter, both of which will give you more control of your shots and your frothing. Also worth considering is what grinder you're using. We generally recommend investing more in a good grinder than a machine as it will make the most difference in terms of taste. Hope that helps!

Hi. which machine would you recommend?

Yes, we do get parts from Delonghi for repairs.

Seattle Coffee Gear these machines are great I found mine on the side of the road ready to get crushed but I saved it thankfully just got a infuser for because the other one involved human error and broke the machine is fine how much does this machine cost
