The perfect cup

Give coffee mornings a lift with the Perfecta coffee machine from DeLongi. This compact machine prepares freshly brewed espresso and cappuccino just how you like it at the touch of a button. The rotating dial with electronic display allows you to set the strength and length of your coffee, and there's even a traditional manual cappuccino frother to whip up a creamy froth to pour on top.
