The De’Longhi TrueBrew Drip Coffee Maker Review
Thank you for joining me in reviewing the De'Longhi TrueBrew Drip Coffee Maker. This coffee maker offers more than just good coffee.
​
For instance, for those of us who enjoy the single-serve option but do not like the use of pods or coffee capsules because, let's face it, they are bad for our environment, the TrueBrew coffee maker has come up with a solution—a zero waste solution with their single-serve selection.
​
You have three options for the De'Longhi TrueBrew Drip Coffee Maker. Matte black and stainless steel can make you 3 oz. Espresso-style beverages include 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 oz. options. Add some ice, and this machine will brew you an iced coffee. With some additional cash, you can increase your possibilities to 40 oz. and a thermal carafe.
​
The De'Longhi has a super easy-to-use touch screen, removing all the guesswork from your brewing experience.
​
The screen displays a straightforward menu for selecting your brew type, size, strength, and temperature. This coffee maker also comes with a built-in burr grinder—a splendid idea, of course. The only thing I can see with this is there are no grinder settings, just the one. But it still makes fantastic coffee. There is also a bypass doser for when you want to use pre-ground coffee.
​
The water tank sits on the right side of the machine. It is removable, which is always a plus in my book. The reservoir holds 61 oz.
The center section slides out to empty the container that stores the used grounds and any water that may have fallen into the grate.

Who is the De'Longhi TrueBrew Drip Coffee Maker best for?
The De'Longhi TrueBrew comes with a variety of easy-to-use settings. It is programmable, so you can set it to be ready when you get up in the morning. This coffee maker takes care of grinding the beans with its built-in burr grinder and the coffee grounds that collect in an inner chamber, so you no longer need paper coffee filters. On the pricey side, this coffee maker will work best for those who love variety and simplicity, contribute to environmental cleanliness, and have the extra cash to splurge on this machine.
Final Verdict
The De'Longhi TrueBrew Coffee Maker is intelligent. It does everything for you besides refilling the water tank and coffee beans.
This coffee maker is on the larger side, so if you have a small kitchen, think this purchase over. This machine has a fair share of pros and cons, so after researching, the decision will ultimately lie with you. But, short of the espresso option, this machine delivers excellent coffee. So, in all, I say go for it!
