Our assessment

The Dedica is a popular entry into the world of portafilter machines: it is small, easy to understand and needs little space. If you want to make espresso yourself, it takes some practice – quantity and tamping pressure affect the taste. A coffee grinder is not included, so you use freshly ground coffee, ground powder or pods. The milk is frothed by hand with the steam wand. If you want coffee at the touch of a button with no effort, a fully automatic machine is the better choice.
