Features


The century old history of award winning Italian designs by DeLonghi continues with the production of the EC860 espresso machine. Combining eye catching beauty and under-the-hood engineering excellence is a hallmark of the DeLonghi tradition. The EC860 incorporates the DeLonghi patented automatic cappuccino system. The design of the milk delivery and holding system takes into account the users’ health and safety. It has automatic rinsing after every milk delivery to eliminate contamination of the next drink and a removable carafe for safely storing the unused portion of milk in a refrigerator.  

Intuitive push button controls, a fully programmable menu with 3 coffee temperatures and an insulated steam wand turn you into a barista capable of delivering professional grade cappuccino, latte macchiato, latte lungo, chocolate mocha, and hot milk drinks. And with the traditional steam wand and swivel jet frother you will soon develop a flair for producing silky milk froth on top of your favorite brew. The steam wand also delivers hot water for tea and instant drinks or soups.

Filter holder


The professional filter holder, with integrated créma device is suitable for ground coffee (1 and 2 cups) and Easy Serving Espresso Pods, (E.S.E. pods).

Energy saving functionality


A stand-by button and an automatic shutoff permits maximum energy saving, to save money and to respect the environment.

Water Reservoir


The removable 35-oz water reservoir has an integrated water filter.

Self-priming


The self-priming system means the machine is rapidly awake and ready to brew.


  • A Dedicated button lets you control the cup warmer so that the cups are warmed when you want them.
  • Illuminated icons let you choose your favorite drink in a simple, intuitive way.
  • The housing is constructed of stainless steel for long life and robust service.
  • The adjustable cup height allows for tall drink glasses up to 4".
  • The professional grade pump produces 15-bar pressure for demanding performance.
  • The generous drip tray has a waste water level indicator.
  • The spout incorporates an anti-drip system.

Highly recommend. Excellent build quality, ease of use. This machine makes excellent espressos (my primary reason for purchase) and good lattes and cappuccino's. The external milk frother unit is brilliant. I use it with Lavazza Blu, ground with a Baratza Encore grinder and am very pleased with the results. Machine is easy to clean and very easy to operate.

In terms of shot quality, how will this compare to the Gaggia Classic? Also, I'm really looking for a durable machine as I can't afford to have something break on me in a year or two. Do you think this DeLonghi will last for a long time (and if not, why?) Thanks.

mjackson ♦ Phil,
I really like the Gaggia Classic. We have customers call all the time that have had the machine for 15 years or more. It is durable and simple. The Delonghi does have the cool milk thing and I think that is handy but does not offer the control over the milk like the Gaggia does. I would get tehta machien and spend the extra on a good grinder like the Gaggia MDF in the end you will be happier.

Mr. Rosso Can you explain what you mean by "milk options" on your comment back to Mr. Klutsein.

Michael Rosso ♦ Eileen...Thank you for your interest in the Delonghi EC860. A milk option for an espresso machine will froth or steam milk automatically for you. Thanks.

Is there a difference in brew quality of coffee between this machine and the Gran Dama 6600? What makes the 6600 a much more expensive machine?

mjackson ♦ Eileen,
They are two different types of machines. One is a super auto, that does everything for you with a touch of a button. So it certainly is much more convenient. The EC680 requires you grind on your own and load coffee into the machine. It does some of the milk function for you. So the extra cost is really for your convenience. So the expense lies in the automation. The EC680 requires you do much more work.

Michael Rosso ♦ Daniel...Thank you for your interest in the Delonghi EC860 Espresso Machine. We ship orders in 24 to 48 hours. I have had the pleasure of using the Delonghi EC860 Espresso Machine when we first got it in. I really believe that Delonghi has put a lot of time and thought into this machine. I would really call this machine a Hybrid Semi Automatic due to the milk option. Thanks.

Hello - I am an avid latte fan. Is this the best machine in this price range? I really like the separate milk container. I've also been looking at the Gaggia Unica. Thanks!

Michael Rosso ♦ Lani...Thank you for your interest in both the Delonghi EC860 Espresso Machine and the Gaggia Unica. The Delonghli is a Semi automatic espresso machine with a automatic milk option, and is a great machine at for the price. The Unica is a Super Automatic espresso machine with no milk automatic milk option, and is at a great price. Thanks.

mjackson ♦ Daniel,

It is an interesting machine. It does the milk automatically and also has a portafilter. It is kind of a hybrid. I like the Gaggias better as you will be able to have more control over your final product. I also think it will prove to be more durable as well. The dimensions are 12 x 10 x 11.5 h x w x d. I hope that helps.
