Overview
The DeLonghi Dedica Deluxe brings a new set of updates to its slim classic semi-automatic. A slim, sub-6" case helps the Dedica Deluxe fit in small spaces and crowded kitchen counters—now with the option to brew into larger 5-inch tall cups and mugs thanks to a removable 2-stage drip tray. DeLonghi also brings updated milk steaming prowess to the Deluxe with an adjustable panarello that lets you switch between straight steaming and auto-frothing with the quick slide of a sleeve. Other brewing niceties include automatic shot buttons; a pressurized portafilter with single, double and ESE pods; an automatic power saving mode; and a demitasse-size cup warming tray.

Pros
- Milk Adjust: The new milk adjust system aids in making steadier microfoam or thick, creamy cappuccino foam.
- Narrow Footprint: Most machines tend to bloom outwards, taking up always-needed counterspace. the Dedica Deluxe's 6-inch stance saves space in even the smallest of kitchens.
- Auto Purge: When switching between brewing and steaming, the Dedica automatically pauses and purges to help release heat from the thermoblock.
-
Cons
- Soupy Pucks: Pressurized portafilters are great for convenience, but tend to leave more of a mess. It doesn't help that the Dedica's portafilter has a tendency to loose its basket when knocking out the aforementioned mess.
