The DeLonghi Magnifica Start is an entry-level bean-to-cup espresso machine with a built-in conical burr grinder, 13 grind settings and 15 bar pressure. It pulls espresso automatically from fresh beans or pre-ground coffee, with touch controls, an aroma strength setting and adjustable drink length. Its steam wand is manual, so milk texturing takes practice, unlike the automatic milk carafes on pricier DeLonghi models. It suits households moving up from pods or a manual machine who want fresh-ground espresso without paying for a fully automatic milk system.
