Individually or simultaneously prepare coffee or espresso using separate controls and water tanks with the Delonghi Cafe Nero Combo Coffee/Espresso Maker. Set up the machine up to 24 hours in advance and enjoy a fresh pot of coffee when you choose! The coffee side also has a patented Flavor Savor brewing system that fully saturates grounds and lets them steep to draw out rich coffee flavors. A permanent Gold Tone filter for efficient straining keeps even the finest grounds from sneaking through and eliminates the need for paper filters. You can adjust the coffee’s strength while a separate button lets you choose between brewing five cups or less or from six to 10 cups and alters the heating element so smaller pots never taste burnt or overheated.The espresso function starts up quickly without much preparation and has two filter holders – one that uses ground espresso and another that uses coffee pods. The pod-filter holder has a unique design that holds pods and makes disposal easy. The patented ground-espresso filter improves the brewing process so espresso drinks always have perfect crema. Cappuccino and latte lovers will be pleased with the exclusive chamber that mixes steam and milk into a delicious creamy froth. The espresso maker has a stainless steel boiler for durability and a removable spill tray for easy cleaning. Convenient features include brew-pause auto self-primer and warming plate. Includes glass coffee carafe. Measures 11 x 17 x 14.17 inches; one-year warranty.Learn more about pressure brewed coffee here.
