Customer Reviews more useful 23 of 23 people found the following review helpful. Tank replaced, the machine is great, again! By whispering UPDATE 3: I had this espresso machine for almost two years and still going strong. No problem, because replacing the water tank. The coffee quality is still excellent. I use the machine daily and descale once every six weeks or so. I still love the coffee that this machine does - I get freshly roasted beans online from Peace Coffee and gravel once a week. This coffee is so good - much better than any coffee house can do. I would definitely buy another one of these machines is that he died. It is easy to use, waterproof, and makes delicious coffee. UPDATE 2: I found a water tank replacement pretty cheap online. It is completely solved the problem with leakage. The problem with noises and flow of the pump so I think he was dying seems up to the fineness of the grind. I did grind a bit 'bigger and stopped the jam so hard (apparently it is not necessary to press the coffee very pressurized filter holder for machines) Now it works like new! So I get up in the evaluation of 4 stars, because the tank may need to be replaced from time to time, but it is very easy if you know where to look ([...] - just look for the CE mark and model number 210) . It 'was very easy and inexpensive (10.95) to replace the tank. The new tank has a closer fit than the original - maybe it will last longer. I am a happy bunny again now I have my daily dose of espresso coffee again ... :-) UPDATE 1: Seven months of wonderful coffee, but now get all the flooding on the counter, with a lack of speed / flow of the head of the espresso. DeLonghi was no help at all in solving the problem, though the machine was still under warranty - they asked for details during the six e-mail, said it was under warranty (they manufacture date) and then told me to send the 100 miles to sort the problem, when I email a scan of my original bill (they only have a few espresso machine repair centers in the U.S.) It was cheaper for a new tank Getting third party other than the engine of the ship. So do not expect this (apparently very common) problem under warranty. ORIGINAL REVIEW: The machine is simple to use: you have two great running heated water through the coffee section to warm up (takes 3-4 minutes, including waiting for the light on top to tell you that the warming between the runs ). Then you can pop in a pod or tamped espresso filter and make your coffee. I use the Guatemalan Peace Coffee coffee beans, finely ground with a Braun coffee grinder. If I can not be bothered to grind to offer in the coming days, "I use the Lavazza Espresso Pods Gran Crema, 150-Count, 25 oz pods Both make excellent coffee, although coffee is to die for Peace! Steam milk / spray works great for me. For the critic, who said he could only get foam, it is necessary to keep the milk jug lower the wand, and at an angle so that the steam is to close the bottom of the jar. If you just put the tip of the steam wand in the milk, you have foam. If you submerge the steam wand is near the bottom of the jar, the vapors of the milk foam very little. wand Move the container to the foam the milk is heated, add foam as much as you want to steam the top 1 / 2 inches by the end of the heating process. I would recommend the Krups XS5020 20-ounce stainless steel pitcher with milk foam, because it's * just * the right size to steam milk for 1-2 large (16 oz) of milk and has a large mango, keep fingers away from the heating of stainless steel can also recommend the 5-ounce jar Rattle Ware Brew, which is the right size to fit under the nozzle espresso. I can make a long shot of espresso that fills the jar of an amount double-shot espresso (or two single-shot pods). This is the advantage.
