Bryan De Luca

I'm Bryan but most people know me as The Coffee Maven. I grew up outside Boston, Massachusetts and received my Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from Providence College. My first introduction to coffee was during my college days, when I used it as a source of caffeine to fuel late-night study sessions, but soon I became obsessed with the chemistry of coffee. How did changes to water temperature or contact time affect its taste? Why do beans from Africa taste fruity while beans from Indonesia taste spicy? I launched The Coffee Maven in February 2017 to explore these questions and help others brew their perfect cup. Welcome to my site, and thanks for reading!

Is DeLonghi better than breville?

The DeLonghi has a more powerful pump, at 19 bars to Breville's 15 bars, but either is plenty to produce a true espresso with a rich crema. Only the DeLonghi offers dual boilers, which guarantees the ideal temperature stability for optimal coffee extraction and milk texturing at the same time.

Are DeLonghi espresso makers good?

DeLonghi coffee devices are popular because they are reliable and well-manufactured. Most of them have a warranty of two years, so you're covered if something happens. They have a huge range of espresso makers — more than 20 — so you can find something for your needs and budget.

How long do DeLonghi espresso machines last?

With proper care, your DeLonghi coffee machine could last for 10+ years or more. Espresso machines generally last between five and ten years, depending on how frequently they are used. Because these machines are machine-made, they require regular maintenance in order to function properly.

Is the DeLonghi La Specialista maestro a dual boiler?

Although the DeLonghi La Specialista Maestro does have dual heating systems, you can't prepare espresso and manually steam milk at the same time, which is a little strange.
