Pros

  • So easy to use
  • Mostly dishwasher safe, so it's simple to clean
  • Can make hot and cold drinks, plus cold brew
  • Coffee tastes great

Cons

  • Two milk carafes take up a fair amount of space
  • It's bulky, maybe too big for smaller kitchens

Some days, my relationship with coffee is like a gentle embrace, where I savour the moments spent crafting my drink.

Other days, the quicker I can consume my cup of morning brown, the better.

The De’Longhi Eletta Explore is a premium automatic coffee machine that caters to both of those needs, and adds a few extra tricks to my household’s caffeine repertoire as well.

It’s an impressive machine that combines the wonders of an automatic coffee machine with the ability to quickly pump out a cold brew or an iced coffee made to your personal tastes. 

A lot of it will be considered overkill for plenty of people, but for a consistently great cup of coffee with no effort, the Eletta Explore delivers every time.
