De'Longhi Eletta Explore or De'Longhi Eletta Ultra?

What actually differs between the De'Longhi Eletta Explore and the De'Longhi Eletta Ultra, and what that means for who you are.

What differs

  • The Eletta Explore is €380.00 cheaper.
  • Both are the same kind of machine, a bean-to-cup, so they work the same way.
  • Both have a built-in grinder, so you do not need to buy one.
  • Milk works the same on both: with a carafe that clips onto the machine.
  • Cleaning the Eletta Explore's milk system: the Clean function after every milk drink. A carafe with milk left in it can go back in the fridge, for at most 2 days with LatteCrema Hot and 1 day with LatteCrema Cool; after that, fully apart and washed.
  • Cleaning the Eletta Ultra's milk system: A rinse with the clean button after every milk drink, and after the last one the carafe apart and into the dishwasher. With milk in it, 2 days in the fridge at most.
