When we released the Delonghi Eletta Explore test, all the lights were green or almost. Practical, versatile, and well equipped, the manufacturer’s new coffee maker with grinder had only one small flaw: a slightly longer preparation time than other models in our comparison. It had then cost him a star as the coefficient of the speed sub-score is important in Digital. But by looking scrupulously at our rating system, in which we insert performance indices out of 100 which translate, for you readers, into a rating out of 5, one of the fields had been incorrectly filled in. In fact, the Delonghi Eletta Explore earns the star it needed to achieve the highest score.
This Delonghi coffee maker takes 1 min 33 s to prepare the first coffee in the morning and then it takes an additional 40 s to make the second. If it is not the fastest model of our comparison, these data remain reasonable. We have updated the test accordingly. This new note allows it to integrate our buying guides dedicated to coffee makers with grinder. To the readers, as to the manufacturer, we address a big my culpa.
