What exactly is this matcha made from and does it really come from Japan?
Our Classic Matcha is made from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant and comes directly from Japan. The production process is carried out with Japanese precision: the tea leaves are carefully picked, steamed, and then ground into powder.
Are these coffee beans suitable for a fully automatic espresso machine?
Yes, Lavazza Espresso Aromatico coffee beans are perfectly suitable for fully automatic espresso machines. With these beans, you can easily make a full-bodied espresso or lungo with a beautiful crema layer.
How often should I descale my coffee machine with this powder?
How often you need to descale depends on usage and the hardness of the water. We recommend descaling the machine as soon as the device indicates it or if you notice a decrease in performance. Our sachet is ideal to order occasionally together with your coffee beans.
Do these tablets work just as well as the original cleaning tablets from my coffee machine brand?
These tablets are a highly effective alternative to the often more expensive original brand tablets. They clean and degrease your machine thoroughly, as confirmed by customers in their reviews.
How many tablets do I get in the package?
This package contains two cleaning tablets. The small package is ideal if you do not want to buy large, expensive packs from your coffee machine brand.
How do I use this matcha powder for the best result?
For the best result, use one teaspoon of matcha powder per cup. First, whisk the powder with a little hot (not boiling) water into a smooth, frothy substance using a matcha whisk (chasen). Then add more warm water to taste, or use milk for a matcha latte.
How do I use the tablets in my espresso machine?
You place one tablet in the special cleaning reservoir or compartment of your espresso machine, as indicated in the manual of your device. Then you follow the standard cleaning programme. Users with, among others, a Smeg espresso machine have reported positive experiences.
What is the difference between this matcha and regular green tea?
Matcha differs from regular green tea because you drink the entire leaf in powdered form, as opposed to leaf green tea where only the infusion is drunk. As a result, matcha has a more intense, creamier taste and contains more caffeine per cup. This matcha also has a mild flavour and is strikingly bright green in colour.
What does the Cactus & Sencha green tea taste like?
Our Cactus & Sencha - Green Tea has a fresh, delicate flavour of green Sencha tea combined with a subtle sweetness of cactus flower. Customers describe the taste as rich, slightly sweet and suitable for any time of the day.
Is the Cactus & Sencha green tea suitable for repeated use (multiple infusions)?
Sencha green tea is generally suitable for multiple infusions. We recommend steeping it for a slightly shorter time with each infusion; this way you can fully enjoy all the subtle flavour nuances.
At what time of day is it best to drink this Cactus & Sencha?
This tea is versatile and is enjoyed by our customers both in the morning and in the afternoon. Thanks to its mild, fresh flavour and light character, it suits any moment of the day.
Is this milk jug suitable for making latte art?
Yes, this milk jug is equipped with a precise pouring spout, specially designed to make pouring for latte art easier. Thanks to the ergonomic handle and the design, you have optimal control while pouring.
Does the matte black coating scratch or stain easily?
The matte black coating is durable and of high quality. As long as you avoid aggressive cleaning agents and scouring pads, the finish will remain beautiful for years.
How often should I replace the water filter?
We recommend replacing the water filter at least every 2 months. The filter is suitable for filtering approximately 50 litres of water, which corresponds to around 400 cups of coffee or 1,000 cups of espresso. With intensive use, it may therefore be necessary to replace the filter more frequently.
Does this water filter fit all De'Longhi coffee machines?
This water filter is suitable for De'Longhi fully automatic espresso machines from the ECAM series, the combi espresso machine BCO 420, and the specific models mentioned on this product page, such as BCO 411/421/431, EC 685/820/850/860/9335, various ESAM models (sometimes only the third series), and all ECAM/ETAM/EPAM machines. Always check your type plate or manual if you are unsure.
