Delonghi Rivelia | adjusting amount, intensity, temperature, froth

[@AsiaSta-b8g]

I have this machine for 1 days now and I have been looking for this kind of explanation for whole day as I wanted to make the best coffee for myself cause default set up does not work for me. You are the only one who make this more clear :D now I just need to watch it 3x to fully understand understand 😅

Good to know that my video has been helpful! Lemmie know what you think about it. I think it’s an awesome machine!

[@subarusmith2662]

I have a Rivelia and over all am very happy - though the high-water temp setting needs to be higher (and if I could improve one more thing - 1.4L of water is quite enough). Reading other peoples comments in various forums about the initial coffee flavour - I too found it took quite a few days of adjustments before I found a good balance

[@gabescoffeestuff]

It’s a pretty decent machine, right?! And yes, the water tank is too small for me. At least compared to my Magnifica Evo.

Thanks for this video! I’m getting my machine today 🥳 Would love to see more videos about the Rivelia, maybe some unknown tips? 😄

[@gabescoffeestuff]

Oooh! I hope you’ll enjoy the machine like I do! An unknown tips video sounds like a good idea! Thanks for that

Once you adjust the coarse setting to some level, you can keep it to that setting once you are satisfied right? You don’t have to return it to its default setting which is 5. Thanks.

[@gabescoffeestuff]

Yup! You don’t have to.

Hi! Great video. I have a Rivelia. So...only 77 °C for espresso??? the optimum temperature is 90 or more. 😢

[@gabescoffeestuff]

Appreciate the compliment! I actually didn’t test the espresso. I used long black for the test. So I dunno. I’m going to be doing a deep-dive review so hopefully they differ and the espresso is gonna be hotter than that.

How's the temperature of the coffee/milk on the Rivelia? I'm thinking of buying one but was put off by some reviewers saying it's not as hot as they'd like it to be. No problems with max settings?

[@gabescoffeestuff]

@@Saram-g5j at high, the temp is 77 degrees. Some people do say that its not hot enough.

My coffee is incredibly bitter. I just want to know how to fix that. I know this coffee is really good. My sister uses it with her Breville barista. I have also a Moko master and it’s good with that And it’s really good and I’ve had it in the roasters and it’s really good. But I need to know how to adjust to make it not bitter. You need a video on how to make a good coffee with the bean adapt technology.

[@gabescoffeestuff]

Yeah! I definitely will talk about that bean adapt technology. Thanks for pointing that out. But for now, decrease the intensity level, and increase the number on the grinder dial. Hope this helps
