Product description

Bring a touch of technology to your classic espresso setup with the Diletta Bello+ Espresso Machine. Following the popularity of the original Bello, the Bello+ adds PID temperature control, an integrated shot timer, programmable pre-infusion, and a low-power eco mode—all with an aim to improve your shot consistency and overall machine usability.

PID Temperature Control

View and adjust your steam boiler temperature quickly with the front-mounted PID screen.

Shot Timer

When brewing, the PID screen doubles as a shot timer to monitor your espresso progress.

Low Power Eco Mode

A new low-power eco mode lowers your boiler temperature to save energy costs while still offering faster recovery to brew temps.

Large Drip Tray

We added an inch to the depth of the drip tray for better cleanliness and capacity during brewing.

Bello+ Espresso Machine

Following the success of the original Diletta Bello, we were faced with a challenge: what was our class-leading machine missing? We upgraded some of the top features sought after by our customers without sacrificing the old-world charm of the original. First, we replaced the simple pressure stat temperature management with a PID that gives better control over steam temperature and allows for one-touch access to programming—no wrenches needed. We also digitized the half-lever preinfusion built into the E61 grouphead with a programmable option for more repeatable recipes.

Finally, we cribbed some design notes from the Mio, adding a programmable eco mode you can set up to complement your morning routine. By holding temperature below boiling, the new eco mode still saves you in energy costs while offering much-improved recovery time for your next brew.

We kept the classic design of the Bello in the process, retaining its clean industrial lines and stainless components—updating only the drip tray in size for more coverage from spills during brewing. The updated Bello+ brings just a touch of technology to the classic espresso machine.

Replaced a 20y old Wega. Great shots. And very happy. Hope to get another 30y from this one. Manual shots but who is so busy that they can't stop for 30 sec and admire the crema. Nice (new feature for me) - you can program 0-10 sec of pre infusion. Heater is strong and holds @230f with extended steam. Quiet vibratory pump. Same commercial E61 group head as the Wega. Came earlier than was promised. Packed super well. Bagged with a drawstring closure. Inside a box with foamed supports, inside a larger box filled with soluble foamed "pookies". Came with two porta filters. One with a double spout and one bottomless. All three sizes of filter baskets (3,2,1) and a solid cleaning basket. Water tank is large enough for a week and easily to fill. If you buy espressos or any other type of coffee drinks regularly. This machine (or really any like it) will pay for itself in a year and totally spoil you. Especially if you research beans (ccmcoffee). You must have a good burr style grinder to get the best from a great espresso machine. So, count that into the price.

Eco mode Great. Temperature as expected. After 50 minutes or an hour, a flush it is needed. Everything in this machine is high quality, Steam great, I keept at 119 Celsius degree so steam it not at its best but brewing under control. It gets really hot every where so be aware of that. I am very happy, after a months. working great as expected. My espresso has improve from a Silvia V6 so not surfing but flushing from time to time. 4 double shot in a row work wonderfull. it recover quickly while puck prepping. Support from SCG excellent. highly recommended.

You will not regret it! Six months and this machine has ruined all other coffee shop espresso for my wife and I. Yes, it depends on learning proper espresso making (thank you YouTube) and it takes effort. Big but, you are rewarded with that quality smooth and creamy coffee you deserve.Hardware works flawlessly and getting the right portafilter (with single spout portafilter, not bottomless) and 10 minutes for temperature. Add a quality espresso bean grinder and scale, now you’re cruising. Consistency in technique pays you back.Cheers!

My first upgrade from Breville Barista Express. Reviewed after 2.5 months of ownership. Paired with a Turin DF64 grinder.In June of 2023 I had bought my first espresso machine in the Breville Barista Express (BBE). To put it shortly: I absolutely loved that machine. When I bought it, I knew absolutely nothing about espresso outside of the fact that I was sick of paying for it everyday at cafe, and that machines were more expensive than most would expect. In fact, I had a pretty good helping of buyers remorse right after I bought the BBE just because of sticker shock. Anyway, I bought the BBE thinking it would be a solid choice for an entry level machine, and it would let me know if this was something I wanted to truly get into, or if it would just end up collecting dust.SPOILER ALERT: Turns out I love making espresso, and felt quickly that I had outgrown my BBE, and so it was time for an upgrade. I chose Diletta Bello Plus (DBP) for a bunch of reasons. For one, Diletta is made by Quickmill, and they have a great QA reputation, and it shows. This thing feels like it's built like a tank. It has a built in PID that many HX models just don't have. Cool touch steam wands. A hot water cycle feature that heats the grouphead by cycling water, eliminating the need to purge before pulling a shot.The transition experience:However, I was accustomed to the BBE, which is a SUPER forgiving machine in terms of making novice errors and still producing decent espresso. The DBP, on the other hand, is much more nitpicky, but really in the best possible ways. From my perspective, the BBE teaches you the basic fundamentals to making espresso, and gives you opportunity to hide mistakes easily, while still learning the baby steps of puck prep, and extraction. The DBP takes what I learned on the BBE and forces me to refine, and improve. Please also consider that on the BBE I never used naked, or bottomless portafilters, so I had no real way to visually see if I had channeling issues. This changed when I went to the DBP and began using a naked portafilter. Channeling like crazy. I had a ton of issues addressing high pressure, fine espresso spray. I tried everything. Turns out it was my WDT technique that was causing 95% of my channeling issues. |UNlike the BBE, this machine is NOT novice friendly. There is a learning curve even for intermediate home baristas, especially if you're used to a 54mm portafilter. This might be off-putting to someone testing the waters of home barista machines. That said: Once you get it, you'll love it... I certainly do.It's a heat-exchanger (HX) unit, so it does come with some limitations common among HX machines. However, unless you drink straight espresso often, I think most of the drawbacks are out-weighed by the pros.PROS:- Nice looking machine (I got the white one)- Standard E61 style head. Parts everywhere.- Pre-infuse option- built in PID for HX temp control.- made by QuickmillCONS:- Drip tray too small (subjective criticism)- Factory smell (took a full flushing to get rid of, but did go away)- Price. It's up there in terms of price. There are other HX machines that offer similar features for much less money, but this had ALL the features I wanted (in an HX), including color options.So, would I recommend it to others?A very qualified Yes.-If you make 2-3 espresso drinks per day-If you primarily have milk based drinks-If you're looking to upgrade without going full tilt La Marozocco money.
