From beginning to end, the Saeco Incanto Deluxe has every detail right to give you the best possible shot of espresso. Your beans are stored in a dark tinted hopper; this protects them from the damaging effects of light, moisture, and air. When you press the brew button the correct amount of beans are ground using a built-in ceramic disc grinder, which can be adjusted to vary the fineness of the grind for different coffee strengths. The grounds are then pre-infused, which brings out the depths of the coffee oils and aromas. Last, the espresso is dispensed directly into your cup, which you can preheat on the machine’s active cup warmer. From start to finish, the Saeco Incanto Deluxe takes each step seriously, and delivers an incredible shot of espresso.
All this takes place inside the Incanto Deluxe’s sleek and modern metal frame. ABS protective plastic on the top makes this machine even more durable, and the swivel base allows you to move the machine with ease, so it’s not a hassle when you need to free up a bit of counter space. This machine was designed with a home kitchen in mind – its impressive looks and quiet brewing and grinding allow it to fit in well to different settings, no matter how many people in the household drink espresso. Even non-coffee drinkers will love the automatic steam and hot water wand, perfect for dispensing hot water for soups and teas, as well as steaming and frothing milk for steamers, chai lattes, or hot cocoas.
The stainless steel steam wand makes for easy frothing, so you can quickly begin making your own cappuccinos, lattes, and other drinks. Indeed, you are completely in control whenever you use this machine. The Rapid Steam system gives you separate boilers for brewing and steaming, so you can move between brewing and steaming without long lag time. Use the 3 programmable brew settings for different drinks, and turn the Saeco Brewing System (SBS knob) to fine-tune the extraction even while brewing. The grind settings are also adjustable, so you can grind finer for a stronger cup of coffee, or coarser for a milder one. If you prefer a different blend than the beans in the hopper, all you have to do is pour pre-ground coffee into the bypass doser and the Incanto Deluxe will brew using that instead.

A blue-backlit LCD screen ensures clarity when you program your drink preferences. Below the LCD screen are 2 rows of buttons, a top row of 4 buttons and a bottom row of 3. Together, the buttons and the LCD screen allow you to vary the pre-brewing cycle; use pre-ground coffee and bypass the beans in the hopper; activate the cup warmer; change the settings for rinsing and energy usage; set the water hardness; turn the cup heater on and off; change the coffee temperature; see how many coffees the machine has dispensed; alert you when descaling is necessary; program automatic on/off times; and return all of these variables to the default factory settings. The top row of buttons is for programming the preferred volume for your 3 different brews, and a button for the bypass doser. Simply press and hold the button corresponding to the drink you want to program until the desired amount of espresso is reached, and from then on the machine will automatically dispense that amount. The bottom row of buttons is for hot water, “OK,” and descaling. |

The coffee dispenser has an SBS knob, which varies the amount of pressure for a stronger or milder shot. On the right side of the machine is the steam knob for foaming and steaming milk. Located on top of the machine, the grinder can be adjusted to change the fineness of the ground. To give you direct control over coffee strength, within the bean hopper is a doser that lets you vary the amount of grounds in each shot of espresso from 6-9 grams by turning it towards the “+” or “–” sign. |

The Incanto Deluxe brews espresso shots of gourmet quality and also includes high-end features essential for a variety of specialty drinks. All you have to do is press the button of the type of coffee desired, and the machine dispenses. If you want 2 coffees, press it twice. The Pannarello steam wand froths milk for cappuccinos and lattes and also serves as a hot water dispenser for tea, hot chocolate, or Americanos. Many use home espresso makers for “café crema,” an espresso brewed long to fill a normal-sized mug. The pressure-brewing espresso process extracts more flavor and creates a more aromatic and tasty drink. Your old drip coffee maker will be available at next summer’s garage sale. |

This coveted feature allows you to switch back and forth between brewing espresso and using the steam wand for frothing without delay. With the dual exchange boiler system there’s less time between brewing and adding your steamed or frothed milk, so you’re sure to get a nice, hot drink every time. |
|
This feature is for pre-ground coffee only and allows you to brew a different kind than what you already have in the bean hopper. It is perfect for entertaining decaf-only drinkers or when you want an after-dinner coffee without the caffeine. This is also great for experimenting with different types of coffee. |
|
The SBS controls the flow rate of your espresso as it brews by varying the pressure. Turn to the left for a perfectly extracted espresso or to the right for a mellow café crema. This innovation lets you adjust the taste of your drink while brewing. |
|
The Saeco Aroma System® is why espresso brewed with this super automatic is so rich and robust. The machine takes 2 seconds to moisten and condition the ground coffee first. A 2 second delay then gives the aromatic oils time to infuse with the water. The second step triggers the high-pressure pump to ensure maximum flavor extraction and a rich aroma. |
|
Ceramic grinding burrs produce an even grind, are durable, and are made of an inert material that won't affect flavor. The adjustable grind feature inside the bean container has 7 settings. This dial adjusts the grind from fine to coarse depending on the drink you are making. Espresso, for example, uses a finer grind while café crema requires a coarser grind. Turning the dial clockwise creates a coarser grind and the coffee is dispensed faster, while turning the dial in the opposite direction creates a finer grind and the coffee is dispensed slower. |
|
The removable, dual dispensing spout moves back and forth to fit different size cups. This feature prevents spills, whether you’re brewing into a small espresso cup or a large mug, and keeps the espresso warm. It can accommodate espresso cups (4 oz) or coffee mugs (8 oz). |
|
Preheated cups are a prerequisite for all espresso drinks. This ensures temperature stability and preserves the flavor of the espresso. The Incanto Deluxe includes an active cup warmer, which is electrically heated and can be turned on to heat cups and turned off when not in use. |

The removable reservoir holds 68 oz of water; this can provide for 30 espressos before needing to refill. When the reservoir runs low, the LCD screen alerts you and prompts you to fill it. The water reservoir is equipped for an Aqua Prima cartridge filter to help purify the water. Saeco recommends this cartridge and it is available separately. If not purchased, the machine needs to be decalcified more often. |
|
The Incanto Deluxe has an updated brew group designed for even better coffee. Like others before it, this brew group is easy to remove. You open the front panel and press the lever to release the brew group. This lets you reach every component that brews the coffee for cleaning. |
|
The dregs drawer is inside the machine and conveniently accessed from the front after sliding out the drip tray. The LCD display will tell you when the dregs drawer needs to be emptied. It can hold approximately 13 espresso pucks. |
|
The Incanto Deluxe holds 10 oz of whole bean coffee – more than enough for 35 espressos before you need to refill it. This storage keeps beans fresh by protecting them from light, moisture, and air. |
