DeLonghi La Specialista Arte Espresso Machine – Metal Black is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 66.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good basic coffee machine I received the La Specialista Arte for an anniversary gift. I am quite happy with the machine and the quality of coffee it brews after around 6 months of use. My only flaw with it is a design flaw with the bean hopper and burr grinder. You are unable to remove the bean hopper and clean the burrs, unlike other machines like the Breville equivalent which is super easy to do such task with the turn of a knob and the hopper is blocked and lifted off the machine. Other than this pretty happy with it. It would be great to see such a feature implemented in the future. The tamper has a nice weight to it and feels very solid.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great little machine with some neat touches! Great machine - takes all that was good about my old Breville machine and adds only what's needed. Dual heating for coffee extraction and steam makes for a far faster cup from grind to drinking. The grinder is a little louder than I'd like it to be, but that's hard to avoid. The cool-touch steam wand is awesome and it's nice and quick to steam/expand the milk (which is a nice change for a small machine). Many cool little features that make this a great purchase. I just hope it lasts as long as my previous machine, which did me proud for a good number of years.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from FAULT YOU can’t clean the burrs !!!! You have to literally unscrew and open the whole machine up! BURRS need to be cleaned! This is literally a massive design fault ! What were you thinking Delonghi! I’m furious I didn’t buy a breville.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great machine but the grinder cant be accessed Bought one of these as my third coffee machine after base model sunbeam and Breville machines failed not long after warranty ended but thankfully we had product care. It's a great machine but I'm surprised to find the grinder is inaccessible for easy cleaning. We had a problem where previous ground coffee was added by mistake and it clogged up the machine. I looked into it and unlike other machines the grinder cant be accessed without pulling the whole machine apart. I solved our issue by turning it upside down and blowing it out with an air compressor . If I realised this earlier I may have chosen a different machine

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A great coffee machine for the home barista Great coffee machine for a great price. Purchased it after reading hundreds of reviews and recommendations. I just wanted to make sure I'm spending my bucks on the correct place. So I will categorize the good and some of the bad bellow for anyone to go through. Pros: Makes great coffee period. Easy to work with and straight forward coffee making. Decent Brr, stepped grinder. Heats up super fast and generates steam fast enough. Easy to dial in and get decent crema. Pre-dipping function to get evenly distributed coffee Good water tank capacity with water hardness settings Comes with a nice dose guide and a solid manual tamp Looks great in your kitchen Comes with a separate hot water nozzle (for tea lovers) Feels premium, Heavy and got aluminum Accents Easy to clean and makes less of a mess while grinding Cons: Cannot empty the grinder on demand. (bummer if you wanna use different coffee beans time to time) One heat element, so you cannot froth milk while making coffee (not a big issue) 51mm Portafilter, so its tiny. Bare minimum size for the recommended dose. This got a steam button, which makes it bit hard to control the steam (compared to a dial) Tips: If you are struggling with low crema and issues hitting the optimum pressure, change your coffee beans. Make sure to use freshly roasted coffee beans instead of old mass produced beans from countdown.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from DeLonghi Arte Coffee Machine OMG The best buy ever! This perfectly packaged bundle is a dream to operate - and makes cafe coffee even better than the cafe does! It was a L3 Lockdown purchase and we couldn't be more pleased with it...did I say it makes excellent coffee?? Yes!! We love it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent machine that delivers café quality We have had this machine about a month now and our whole family is super impressed in the quality of the machine, the ease to use and the great results obtained. This is our first proper coffee machine and bout this brand as we have a bigger one at work which also produces awesome coffee every time, and it gets a solid workout every day. Highly recommend this machine, it looks great on the benchtop as it doesn't take up too much room and we love everything about this machine, especially the coffee.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from La Specialista We love our coffee machine! It’s great to be able to make coffee as good as (or even better than) the coffee shops. The grinder works really well although it did take a while to get the settings exactly right (recommend practising with some cheaper beans until you get it where you want it). The steam pressure on the milk wand is perfect- with cheaper machines I have found this to be inadequate but this one steams milk perfectly. We purchased a thermometer as well which is really essential for making sure you don’t burn your milk. Overall a great purchase and a great price.

Questions & Answers

How do you make the coffee stronger 

Asked by: Buck
Thanks for your question. You can increase the dose size by setting it to max using the X2 setting, when using the double filter basket. If you still feel this is below your needs, hold the X1 and X2 buttons for 3 seconds, turn the beverage selector dial to 'Americano', press the 'Temperature' button until the middle light is illuminated, then press OK. This will set the unit for extra grinding. Trust this helps!

In terms of the internals on this machine, that is the "boiler" and piping etc; are these stainless steel, or aluminium?

Asked by: Pete
Thank you for your query. While the boiler is made of aluminium there are stainless steel coiled piping that run inside the aluminium housing. At no point does water touch the aluminium.
