De'Longhi Magnifica S coffee maker offered at half price in Italy

The De'Longhi Magnifica S automatic coffee machine is now available on Amazon for €279, roughly half of its original list price of over €500. The machine features a built‑in grinder with 13 adjustment levels, a 250‑gram bean hopper, a 1.8‑liter water tank, and the ability to use pre‑ground coffee. Users can select coffee length and intensity, and the unit also dispenses hot water for tea or infusions. Automatic cleaning and descaling programs, along with a removable brew group, simplify daily maintenance and help preserve performance.

Professional espresso preparation still relies on key variables: high‑quality beans, proper storage, correct grind size, precise dosage (about 7‑9 g for a single shot), consistent tamping, and controlled water temperature and extraction time (around 25‑30 seconds). Attention to these factors, along with regular cleaning of the machine’s group head and filters, ensures a balanced, aromatic espresso.
