Cream DeLonghi Coffee Maker with 15 Bar Pump and Cappuccino System

Genuine pump pressure for real espresso at home:

The DeLonghi Stilosa EC260.CR is a cream DeLonghi coffee machine built around a 15 bar pump. That pump draws water through the ground coffee at consistent pressure, producing a shot with a proper nut-coloured crema on top.

Manual Cappuccino System for frothed milk drinks:

The machine is fitted with DeLonghi's Cappuccino System - a manual steam wand on a flexible 360° hose that lets you mix steam and milk to the froth density you prefer. Use it to make cappuccinos, flat whites, or lattes without any separate equipment. The stainless steel boiler maintains consistent steam temperature throughout the frothing process.

Double-wall baskets and E.S.E. pod compatibility:

The included double-wall pressurised filter baskets produce a well-formed crema regardless of how finely or coarsely the coffee is ground - a practical advantage for anyone still dialling in their grind. The machine also accepts E.S.E. pods directly, so you can switch between ground coffee and pods without any adapter. A single basket and a double basket are both included.

Practical daily-use details:

The two-level adjustable cup stand accommodates cups and glasses up to 110 mm tall - tall enough for a standard latte glass. The 1-litre removable water tank is straightforward to lift out and refill, and a water level indicator lets you check at a glance before you brew. The machine shuts itself off automatically after 15 minutes, and a descale warning indicator lights up when the machine needs attention.

Setup and Care

Getting started:

Place the machine on a stable, level surface near a mains socket with at least 80 cm of cord reach. Fill the water tank to the desired level, refit it securely, and switch the machine on. Allow approximately 5 minutes for the boiler to reach brewing temperature before pulling your first shot.

Using ground coffee and E.S.E. pods:

For ground coffee, fill the appropriate filter basket, tamp firmly with the included tamper, and lock the portafilter into the group head. For E.S.E. pods, use the single-cup basket and insert the pod directly - no tamping required. The selector dial lets you switch between brewing and steam mode.

Cleaning after each use:

Remove and rinse the portafilter, filter baskets, and drip tray after each session. Purge the steam wand with a brief burst of steam after frothing milk, then wipe the exterior of the wand with the included steam wand cleaner. The water tank is removable for rinsing.

Descaling:

The descale indicator will light up when the machine requires descaling - the frequency depends on your local water hardness, which the included test paper helps you determine at first use. Use a DeLonghi-approved descaler and follow the descaling programme set out in the instruction manual to keep the boiler and pump performing correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the water tank capacity of the Stilosa EC260.CR?

The Stilosa EC260.CR has a 1 litre water tank and a 15 bar pump, heated through De'Longhi's HS03 element with a stainless steel boiler. It is a manual pump espresso machine built around a compact footprint rather than a large-capacity, high-volume design.

How do I make cappuccino on the EC260.CR?

The EC260.CR uses De'Longhi's Cappuccino System, a manual frother built into the steam wand, so milk is textured by hand after the espresso shot is pulled. There is no automatic milk button, which gives more direct control over foam texture compared with a one-touch system.

What are the dimensions and weight of the EC260.CR?

The EC260.CR measures 205mm wide by 343mm deep by 285mm tall and weighs 3.907kg. That compact footprint, combined with its 1 litre tank, makes it suited to a smaller kitchen counter rather than a machine meant to serve multiple drinks back-to-back without refilling.

Is the EC260.CR a manual or automatic espresso machine?

The EC260.CR is a fully manual pump espresso machine: coffee is tamped into the portafilter by hand and there is no built-in grinder, so it is designed for pre-ground coffee or ESE-style pods rather than whole beans. It runs at 15 bar through a stainless steel boiler.
