If you've been looking to treat yourself (or a loved one) to a great coffee gift, look no further. Coffee-obsessed shopping writer Marisa Petrarca recently gave the De'Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus Espresso Machine ($300, originally $400) her stamp of approval. It's compact and looks great on a kitchen counter, but most importantly it brews espresso drinks that Marisa says taste better than her local coffee shop's offerings. Espresso machines can be intimidating, but according to Marisa, "[The Dedica Maestro Plus] is simple enough to make a basic espresso without a hitch, yet it also has sophisticated features to level up your skills." Plus, it features a steam wand that can help you make a variety of drinks — or even try your hand at latte art. For more on the features Marisa loves, read her full review — and shop the De'Longhi Dedica Maestro Plus ahead while it's on sale. |
