De'Longhi Dedica Duo EC890: Compact Manual Espresso Machine with My LatteArt Steam Wand and Built-In Cold Brew

Italian espresso in a compact footprint

The De'Longhi Dedica Duo packs a 15-bar pump and an automatic brew group into a body just 14.9 cm (5.9 in) wide. It fits easily on a tight kitchen counter without giving up extraction quality.

What sets it apart

The Dedica Duo brews both hot espresso and cold coffee, using Cold Extraction technology to make a homemade Cold Brew in about 5 minutes. Its My LatteArt steam wand textures milk into a fine microfoam, the smooth, velvety foam needed for real latte art.

Key specifications

• 15-bar vibration pump, for consistent extraction pressure.
• 51 mm portafilter with a high-capacity basket, for a fuller-bodied espresso.
• 1.1-liter water tank and automatic thermoblock heating, for a quick warm-up.
• Dimensions of 14.9 x 33 x 30.5 cm (5.9 x 13 x 12 in), for easy placement on a small counter.
• Removable drip tray, to fit cups and glasses of different heights.

Day to day

The Dedica Duo is quick to learn: lock in the portafilter, start the shot, then steam and texture milk if you like. It also accepts pre-ground coffee for anyone who prefers to grind separately. Upkeep is limited to rinsing the portafilter and periodically descaling the tank.

Who it's for / Who it's not for

Ideal for anyone new to manual espresso who wants a compact home machine without stepping up to a prosumer model. Also a good fit for switching easily between hot espresso and Cold Brew. Less suited to high-volume use or to anyone wanting an E61 group and finer temperature control (see our Lelit or ECM E61 group machines).

Where it fits

Among entry-level compact manual machines, the Dedica Duo stands out for its built-in Cold Brew function and dedicated latte art steam wand, two features rarely found on machines this size.

What's included / Colors

Comes with a portafilter, tamper, measuring scoop, and single and double dose filter baskets. Available in four finishes: pistachio, pink, vanilla, and stainless steel.
