Starting the day with our Delonghi coffee machine
Our 14 year old Delonghi machine was starting to feel its age and when we saw the Magnifica Start we knew it was time to retire it. We are more than happy with easy to use simple features of the Magnifica Start, Our days continue to begin with a great coffee made on our new Delonghi machine, I guess you could say a “Great Start” to each day

Steam not working!!!
Great coffee maker but steam doesn’t work. It is quite expensive to have this problem. I will be bringing back to the shop.

Not so easy
Somewhat complicated for a basic start up machine but when worked out very noisy with grinding beans but makes a good coffee. Why so much clean water wasted to make a cup of coffee. Cleaning easy but disappointed after only one month needed to rescale even though I had a water softener in place. Costs about 40c a coffee so worth the 3 minute wait to produce.

Delonghi is Magnifica
Going from a pod machine to a machine that all vut drinks the coffee for you. Being spoilt and now at a touch of s button, my coffee is ready for me. Sales people knew the machine, and even a DeLonghi rep was there on the day. Got a couple of clear coffee cups for the experience to be complete.

At a glance
The DeLonghi Magnifica Start is a compact bean-to-cup automatic coffee machine for households that want easy espresso, coffee and long coffee with fresh grinding and simple customisation. Its strengths are one-touch drinks, a 1.8 L water tank and a traditional milk frother for cappuccinos and lattes. The trade-off is that milk texturing is manual rather than fully automatic.
What it’s great for
- Daily Coffee Making
- Bean-to-Cup Brewing
- Espresso at Home
- Cappuccinos and Lattes
- Small Kitchen Benches
Where it works best
- Home Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Family Home
- Entertaining Area
Who it’s for
- Everyday Coffee Drinker
- Busy Household
- First-Time Automatic Coffee Machine Buyer
- Home Espresso User
Things to consider
It uses a traditional manual milk frother, so it offers more hands-on milk texturing than premium machines with automatic milk systems and one-touch milk drinks.
Ease of use score
8/10 - intuitive one-touch controls and preset drinks make daily brewing straightforward.
Coffee variety suitability
8/10 - well suited to black coffee drinks and manual milk-based drinks, with enough customisation for most households.
Office vs home fit
Best for home use; suitable for light shared use, but manual milk frothing makes it less ideal for busy office settings.
Cleaning convenience
7/10 - removable dishwasher-safe components help with care, though the manual frother adds some hands-on cleaning.
Milk frothing performance
7/10 - capable traditional steam wand performance for creamy milk foam, but it requires user technique and effort.
Key benefits
- One-Touch Drink Selection: Makes espresso, coffee and long coffee quickly and simply for everyday use.
- Built-In Grinder: Grinds beans fresh for each cup to deliver fuller aroma and fresher-tasting coffee.
- 13 Grind Settings: Gives you more control over flavour and extraction to better match different beans and taste preferences.
- Traditional Milk Frother: Lets you manually texture milk for cappuccinos, lattes and flat whites.
- 1.8 L Water Tank: Supports multiple coffees before needing a refill, which is practical for daily routines and guests.
- 250 g Bean Hopper: Holds enough beans for regular use without constant topping up.
- Personalised Drink Settings: Allows you to adjust aroma, temperature and drink length for a more tailored coffee.
- Compact Footprint: Fits more easily on kitchen benches than larger automatic coffee machines.
Q: Does this machine froth milk automatically or manually?
A: It froths milk manually. The DeLonghi Magnifica Start uses a traditional milk frother, so you texture the milk yourself for cappuccinos and lattes rather than pressing one button for a fully automatic milk drink.
Q: Will the Magnifica Start fit on a small kitchen bench?
A: Yes, in many kitchens. The DeLonghi Magnifica Start measures 240mm high, 440mm wide and 350mm deep, so it suits smaller benchtops, but allow extra room to remove the water tank and use the milk frother comfortably.
Q: Can you adjust the grinder for different coffee beans?
A: Yes. The built-in grinder has 13 settings, which helps when switching between beans that extract faster or slower. It grinds fresh for each cup, but the machine is still aimed at straightforward home use rather than café-style tuning.
Q: How much water and coffee beans does it hold?
A: The DeLonghi Magnifica Start has a 1.8L water tank and a 250g bean hopper. That gives it enough capacity for regular daily use or a few coffees in a row before needing a refill, without making the machine overly bulky.
Q: Can this machine make tea as well as coffee?
A: Yes, for hot water rather than a tea preset. The traditional milk frother can also dispense hot water for tea infusions, but this machine is primarily built around coffee drinks, so tea preparation is a secondary function.
Q: Is cleaning the DeLonghi Magnifica Start fairly hands-on?
A: Cleaning is fairly straightforward, but it is not fully hands-off. The removable parts are dishwasher-safe, while the traditional milk frother needs regular rinsing after milk drinks, so upkeep is simpler than manual machines but still active.
