Practical application tips for the Delonghi Dedica

1. What to do if the portafilter splashes?

Cause: The splashing of the portafilter is often caused by so-called channeling - the coffee flows unevenly through the sieve.

Solution: Precise work and strong tamping (pressing the coffee) help to reduce channeling.
Make sure to fill the sieve sufficiently (e.g. with 16g APAS ) to minimize the risk of channeling.

2. Wet coffee puck after brewing?

It is normal for the DeLonghi Dedica to often leave behind a wet coffee puck.

Tip: Leave the portafilter in place for a while after brewing to allow excess coffee to drip off.
Place a cup under the portafilter to catch any drips.

3. After drawing – wait a moment!

After the brewing process, there may still be pressure on the portafilter.

Note: If you remove the portafilter immediately after brewing, the coffee may slosh around. Therefore, wait a few seconds before removing the portafilter.

4. Clean work with the measuring cup

Use a measuring cup (51mm) to fill the ground coffee cleanly into the portafilter and create less contamination.

5. Working with a scale

A coffee scale guarantees consistent results. This allows you to precisely control the grind and the amount. You can find more tips on making espresso here.
