Brew Buzz: How To Enjoy Top Coffee Trends At Home
October 13, 2022-5 min read
Whether hot or iced, Aussies acquire a year-round thirst for coffee drinks. Cue the new De’Longhi coffee machine from the Italian maestros of in-home coffee making. The DeLonghi Eletta Explore Wifi Connect Titan Coffee Machine lets you create piping hot or iced coffee treats for less in your own kitchen – Espresso, Cold Americano to Iced Lattes, the options are endless!
“The De’Longhi Eletta Explore is like having a coffee lounge at home 24/7,” says Tracey Ellis, The Good Guys Buyer – Portable Appliances. “It offers coffee lovers a revolutionary new LatteCrema Cool milk-texturing technology, along with customisable iced coffee recipes at the touch of the button, so you can spoil your friends and family with café-style hot or cold coffee-based creations from breakfast through to happy hour.”
Some Like It Cold
Are cold milk-based coffees your daily drink of choice? “The Eletta Explore is the first coffee machine with two dedicated milk texturing technologies to satisfy both hot and cold coffee cravings,” says Tracey Ellis. “The LatteCrema Hot automatic frothing feature delivers premium cappuccinos every time, while the LatteCrema Cool function creates velvety smooth, cold milk foam so you can enjoy all the latest cold foam-topped treats at home.”
The Froth Over Cold Foam
Designed as the perfect finish for chilled café beverages, cold foam is dairy milk (or plant-based milk) frothed cold instead of hot. Because it doesn’t melt down into your glass like hot foam, every sip seems like your first, and you can savour a creamy, cloud-like consistency, without the calories.
Create Your Own Cut-Price Coffee Lounge
Coffee and milk are just the beginning with the De’Longhi Eletta Explore. With a pre-set library of 40-plus customisable hot and iced coffee recipes, you can drink your way through an entire cafe menu!
Personalise your favourites by adjusting strength, aroma, temperature and milk quantity to perfect your ultimate brew. Or experiment with syrups, spices and other exciting flavours to devise delicious versions of all those in-demand drinks, for less than you’d pay at your regular brunch haunt (we’re looking at you, Iced Caramel Macchiato!).

Whether it’s a piping hot Americano espresso or a cold latte macchiato that gets you out the door in the morning, making your sacred cup of joe couldn’t be easier with the De’Longhi Eletta Explore.
