De’Longhi, the #1 global espresso brand, has launched yet another stylish and functional innovation: the Dedica Duo. Launched yesterday, the Dedica Duo boasts an ultra-slim design, packed with features that make brewing your morning coffee enjoyable. Delivering both espresso brewing and making cold brew in one unit, this tiny yet mighty espresso machine is perfect for the smallest spaces (think apartments, small kitchens, and more). Although it’s no surprise that this launch comes from the renowned De’Longhi, the new gelato-inspired shades are the standout feature of this launch.

The 5.9″ wide De’Longhi Dedica Duo is designed to match any kitchen aesthetic. Priced at $299.95 (USD), you can now get your hands on one in any of the four gelato-inspired shades. Whether you’re looking for a bold pop of kitchen-counter color or choose to stick with the timeless Stainless Steel, you know this De’Longhi machine will be the most beautiful piece atop your kitchen counter. The four shades available now include:
  • Rose: A soft, playful pink for a touch of whimsy in your kitchen.
  • Pistachio: A fresh, modern green that brings understated elegance to your countertop.
  • Vanilla: A warm, neutral hue that complements any style with a classic, clean look.
  • Stainless Steel: Sleek and timeless, offering that professional, coffeehouse vibe.

While its beauty will take you by surprise, the De’Longhi Dedica Duo offers so much more than a pleasing aesthetic. This new launch enables coffee drinkers to brew hot espresso in just seconds or enjoy smooth, cold brew coffee in under 5 minutes, without the steeping required for traditional cold brewing. The built-in barista tools, such as the My LatteArt steam wand, make it easy to create microfoam for fun, cafe-style drinks.

How I upgraded my De’Longhi Rivelia to make incredible cold espresso drinks
How to unlock six new cold foam recipes
De'Longhi Rivelia

I first started using the De'Longhi Rivelia espresso machine, the brand's newest fully automatic, innovative, and touchscreen espresso maker for home use. I was instantly impressed with how easy this espresso maker was to use and how quickly it made it possible to prepare all my favorite espresso-based beverages.

Ironically, I was so caught up in learning how to use the machine to make hot coffee drinks that I forgot it could also make cold coffee drinks. Once I upgraded with the De'Longhi LatteCrema Cool kit, I unlocked a whole new world of possibilities for cold coffee drinks, from an iced white flat to an iced cappuccino. This tiny upgrade changed the game, solidifying just how much I love this espresso machine.

coffee pods

The convenience of coffee pods is undeniable — with no dosing, scooping, or mess, coffee pods deliver a fast and easy way to get your caffeine fix without the hassle. Yet all coffee pods, from the Nespresso Vertuo pods to the standard K-Cups, contain regular ground coffee inside the casing (even though you can't see it). With that in mind, do coffee pods have an expiration date? I know I've wondered this question before, especially after pulling out bags of K-Cups from my pantry that've seemingly been there for ages. Let's break down the answers to everything you've wondered about "Do coffee pods expire?"
Do coffee pods expire?

Drew Pond, Co-Owner of Stone Creek Coffee, gives us the short answer we probably already knew: yes, coffee pods expire. "They're not Twinkies. Most are stamped with a “best by” date about 8 to 12 months out, but let’s be clear: that’s not a magic number. The flavor starts to fade way before that if you're not using the right pods or storing them correctly. Coffee is full of delicate oils, compounds, and aromatics that fade over time, especially in single-serve formats," he says.

No matter how late I'm running or how hectic my morning is, I'll never skip making a quick cup of coffee. My morning cup of coffee is a non-negotiable way to start my day on the right foot. Sometimes, I'll add a simple dash of cinnamon to spice up my morning brew. Cinnamon's natural sweetness adds a depth to my coffee that I love, yet its magic extends beyond what the eye can see.

According to Lea Wetzell, MS, LN, CNS, a pinch of cinnamon in coffee also offers a healthy antioxidant boost and supports healthy blood sugar levels. Here's how (and why) you should explore the magic of adding cinnamon to your cup of joe.
