De’Longhi La Specialista Maestro EC9865.M Coffee Machine

The De’Longhi La Specialista Maestro EC9865.M is a premium manual bean-to-cup espresso machine designed for coffee enthusiasts who want a genuine barista-style experience at home. It gives you hands-on control over grinding, dosing, tamping, extraction and milk preparation, while built-in technology helps make each stage more precise and consistent.

The integrated grinder offers 8 grind settings, allowing you to fine-tune the coffee for different bean types and roast levels. A digital display helps with accurate dosing, while the built-in tamping lever applies pressure directly inside the machine, helping reduce mess on the worktop and promote more consistent puck preparation.

With 19-bar pump pressure and five selectable temperature profiles ranging from approximately 90°C to 98°C, the La Specialista Maestro gives you greater control over extraction. This makes it easier to adapt the brewing process to light, medium and dark roasts and experiment with different flavour profiles.

For milk-based drinks, you can choose between the MyLatte Art steam wand and the automatic LatteCrema system. The manual wand gives you direct control over milk texture for latte art and silky microfoam, while the LatteCrema carafe can automatically prepare creamy or denser milk foam for drinks such as cappuccino and latte macchiato.

The machine also supports cold coffee preparation through Cold Extraction Technology, which can prepare cold brew-style coffee in under four minutes. An additional Espresso Cool recipe offers another chilled option for warm-weather drinks and creative iced recipes.

The generous 2.5-litre water tank reduces the need for frequent refilling, while the adjustable cup platform accommodates different cup sizes. A removable drip tray, cleaning programmes, descaling alerts and dishwasher-safe components help make day-to-day maintenance easier.
