Create a compact coffee bar in your own kitchen with the De’Longhi BCO264B Combination Machine, an all-in-one cappuccino/espresso machine and drip coffee maker. The dual-function espresso filter allows you to make fast and easy espresso and produce authentic crema. Brew drip coffee to your preferred strength and enjoy a range of convenient functions for fast, easy, and flavorful coffee and espresso.

Combination Unit with Auto Self-Prime Function
This combination unit takes up less counter space than owning separate coffee and espresso machines. Designed to self-prime automatically, it saves time so you can prepare your beverage quickly and without the extra wait. This all-in-one machine features a high-quality 15-bar stainless steel boiler for perfectly brewed, authentic espresso.
Dual-Function Espresso Filter
A unique filter holder accommodates the two included attachments: the Sempre crema filter and the E.S.E. (Easy Serving Espresso) filter. The Sempre crema filter, used with two measures of ground coffee, enhances brewing to produce an ideal crema, the essence of authentic espresso distinguished by its caramel color. The E.S.E. filter uses pods or one measure of ground coffee for simple and convenient espresso preparation.
User-friendly controls and settings to adjust your preferred strength
View larger Select Your Preferred Coffee Strength
Adjust the strength of your coffee to your preference with the Accuflavor selector dial. For a full-bodied brew, the Flavor Savor Brewing System completely saturates and steeps the grounds for a more robust, aromatic taste.
Creates a rich, creamy foam
View larger Frother for Cappuccinos and Lattes
The unit includes a chamber that mixes steam and milk to create a rich and creamy foam for lattes and cappuccinos. The frother can also be used to quickly heat milk for hot chocolate.
Easy-to-use water reservoir
View larger Programmable Timer and Water Level Indicator
Start the day with the aroma of fresh-brewed coffee. The 24-hour, programmable digital timer can be set to brew before you wake in the morning or whenever you need it. Additionally, a water level indicator lets you know when the machine needs refilling.
Filters while providing rich, full flavor
View larger Pause and Serve and 5- or 10-Cup Option
Suspend the brewing cycle with the Pause and Serve function. This feature allows you to enjoy a cup of coffee even before the pot is finished brewing. A 5- or 10-cup option adjusts the heating element to prevent overheating smaller pots of coffee.
Filters even the finest grounds
View larger Gold-Tone Filter and Removable Water Tanks
Even the finest grounds stay out of your coffee with the permanent gold-tone filter, designed for reliable, long-lasting use. The machine’s removable drip tray and two water tanks—one for espresso and the other for drip coffee—are easy to refill and clean.

short lived brewing I am an avid coffee drinker, somewhere between 2-4 pots a day. My husband bought this 3-in-1 coffee maker for me for the Christmas of 2004. It has a digital clock/timer, flavor strength switch and makes pretty good coffee. It worked great for a while.
Simple but Effective I had originally purchased the Krups version of their fanciest dual machine and it arrived non-functional with a display and buttons that were a little too “Star Trek” for me anyway…in fact, they didn’t function at all. The Delonghi Caffe Nero (so far) has been very straighforward, easy to use, and produces good coffee and espresso. The quality of the coffee is moderate-high and I’m impressed with its strength selection system (a simple knob) and the mechanism by which it brews. No bells…
Warning: If anything goes wrong, the warranty is worthless!
