FAQs

How often should I descale the machine?

Descale your De'Longhi Dedica Duo every 1-3 months, depending on usage and water hardness.

Can I use pre-ground coffee?

Yes, the Dedica Duo is designed to use pre-ground coffee as well as E.S.E. pods.

How do I clean the milk frothing wand?

After each use, purge the steam wand by pointing it over the drip tray and activating it briefly. Then, wipe the wand clean with a damp cloth.

What kind of water should I use?

Use filtered water to improve the taste of your coffee and reduce mineral buildup in the machine.

How tall of a cup can I use?

The machine can accommodate cups up to 13cm tall.

What is the warranty period?

Troubleshooting

Device won't turn on

Check the power cord and outlet. Ensure the machine is switched on.

Weak espresso

Use a finer grind of coffee and ensure the coffee is tamped correctly in the portafilter.

Milk frothing issues

Purge the steam wand first, then position the wand just below the surface of the milk to introduce air. Experiment to get the desired texture.

Machine is slow to heat

Ensure the water tank has sufficient water and that the machine is not in energy-saving mode. Allow the machine to fully heat up before brewing.
