De’Longhi’s New Espresso Machine Is $200 Off

My mom didn’t drink coffee when I was growing up, but these days, chaos ensues if she doesn’t have a latte within an hour of waking up. This change came about largely because of Nespresso. It acted as her entrée into the wider world of java by getting her comfortable enough with the brewing process to experiment with caffeine amounts, roasting levels, and bean types. It did its duty, turning her into a coffee aficionado with a soft spot for lattes, but she’s officially outgrown the pods that raised her.

Craving a more sophisticated setup, my mom procured De’Longhi’s new La Specialista Touch Espresso Machine instead. Its design ticked every box: sleek stainless steel exterior, integrated conical burr grinder and steam wand, intuitive touchscreen, and 10 preset drink functions. After reading the instructions and watching a few videos, she’s turned into a barista capable of making everything from cold brews to long blacks with practiced ease. If you’re also looking to upgrade your coffee setup with a fancy new espresso machine, now is the time to act because De’Longhi took $200 off its La Specialista Touch.  

De’Longhi La Specialista Touch Espresso Machine 

My mom would be the first to tell you that a Nespresso machine is faster and easier to use. That said, she thinks the coffee brewed using her De’Longhi is bolder, fresher, and less acidic. In other words, it tastes better. She’s convinced this difference is because it uses freshly ground beans every time. After picking her drink on the touchscreen, she fills the bean hopper and lets the machine grind, dose, infuse, and brew. All she has to do is tamp the grounds, select the frothing level for the milk, and rinse the drip tray and coffee filter basket after use. Yes, it’s more involved than the Nespresso, but not by much. 

If my mom could learn how to use this espresso machine as a relative novice, anyone can figure it out, she says. She’s ecstatic that her barista skills finally match her more nuanced palate and loves that she can now craft professional-level brews from the comfort of her kitchen. To experience the magic for yourself, add De’Longhi’s new La Specialista Touch to your Amazon cart — and take advantage of the $200 discount.
