They mention that it's very well made, produces wonderful tasting coffee, and has clear instructions. The DeLonghi America is an automatic espresso machine that features an automatic flow stop feature dispensing the right amount of coffee for you.

The temperature, the acidity balance, the preparation, the coarse grind and the magic of those 8+ hrs in a cold and dark fridge without “my assistance” .

Coarse grind size — similar to what you'd use for a French press — is usually recommended for cold brew, and what I used in testing. Cold brew coffee is made by steeping coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period which extracts the coffee's flavour and caffeine.A finer grind can turn muddy over a long brew time, making it more difficult for the water to pass through the grounds during filtration.
