Owning the DeLonghi ECO310 Icona Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine

The DeLonghi ECO310 Icona Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine in black has a number of smart features that make it both easy to use and able to produce quality espresso. First time users will appreciate the convenience of the self-priming pump, which eliminates the tediousness of start-up preparation. Further maintenance of the machine is made easy with features like the removable 48oz water reservoir and the removable drip tray.

The Icona uses DeLonghi's patented "dual function" portafilter, which can use ESE (Easy Serving Espresso) pods should you choose, but also takes the guesswork out of brewing with ground coffee with the machine's built-in tamper, for ideal extractions with every shot you pull. Internally, temperature stability is ensured by the dual thermostats which monitor brew and steam temperatures separately, while externally the elegant, railed cup warmer heats your cups prior to brewing. When you're ready to elevate your skills to the next level, the Icona's "Cappuccino System" milk frother is designed to mix steam with milk for easy crafting of all of your favorite milk based drinks.
