Coffee! It’s far more than a morning ritual, it’s a global connector, deeply woven into the fabric of everyday life across cultures. From espresso in Rome to pour-over in Kyoto, each country brings its own flavour, tradition and story to the much-loved coffee bean. So come and Eletta Explore with us!
Your journey begins
In Italy, coffee is fast and strong. Locals rarely linger. Instead, they stand at a café bar, downing an espresso in a single sip before heading on their way. It’s a quick but sacred daily ritual, repeated often. And always served hot!
Travel north to Sweden, where coffee takes a slower turn with fika — a beloved tradition of pausing the day for coffee and cake, usually in good company. It’s a moment of reflection and connection, as essential as the coffee itself.
In Turkey, coffee – turk kahvesi — is thick, bold and brewed in a small pot called a cezve. Served unfiltered in tiny cups, the grounds settle at the bottom — often read like tea leaves to tell fortunes. It’s steeped in ritual, ceremony and storytelling.
In Japan, coffee meets calm precision. The pour-over method, especially in Kyoto, is a meditative process. Hot water is slowly coaxed through the grounds, delivering a clean, refined cup that reflects the culture’s reverence for detail.
Vietnam offers a striking contrast, with its famed cà phê sữa đá, made from strong drip coffee and sweetened condensed milk, poured over ice. It’s a perfect balance of robust and creamy, often enjoyed slowly on small street stools.
Australia’s Melbourne is a coffee capital in its own right, with a fiercely proud café scene. The flat white reigns supreme — smooth, silky and expertly poured. Cafés are social hubs, blending artistry with community.
And Ethiopia! It’s the birthplace of coffee, where drinking is part of an elaborate social ceremony. Beans are roasted fresh, ground by hand and brewed in a jebena — a clay coffee pot. There are three rounds of the buna ceremony, saying nothing, as some moments are best left in the silence between sips: coffee is about tradition, and taking time to connect.
And there is still a world more where coffee remains a shared pleasure — one that warms hands, enlivens minds and brings people together, you included!
Eletta Explore your own world of coffee
But coffee adventure isn’t always found far away – sometimes, it starts right in your kitchen. True to its name, De’Longhi’s Eletta Explore invites you on a global journey through taste, technology and quality. With over 50 different coffee recipes built in, Eletta Explore offers a new destination for your senses every day.
One morning might take you to a bustling Parisian café with the standard “un café” — a shot of espresso, a strong, black coffee Parisians enjoy as a quick pick-me-up. The next, you might find yourself cooling off at the Bahamas with a silky iced latte, crafted with smooth cold brew extraction. The choices are all yours.
Every cup is a new exciting journey
Eletta Explore brings two distinct coffee worlds into one machine — offering the bold intensity of espresso, brewed under high pressure, alongside the smooth, refreshing character of cold brew.
While espresso delivers a concentrated shot full of rich flavour and crema, cold brew takes a gentler approach: ground coffee is brewed at room temperature without pressure, revealing delicate, naturally sweet flavour notes. It’s a brewing method gaining momentum across the globe — and with Eletta, you can enjoy both styles at the touch of a button, depending on your mood, or your next coffee affair.
YOUR ADVENTURE CAN BE HOT OR COLD
The spirit of adventure doesn’t stop at coffee. Eletta Explore masters the art of cold creations, frothing chilled milk to perfection for iced cappuccinos, lattes and more. Whether you’re seeking the comfort of a warm, familiar brew or the thrill of a refreshing new favourite, the Eletta Explore is ready to take you right there.
