Chris
I opened up my Delonghi today, to investigate the push button switch dilemma.
It was not very hard to work out, all I had to do was solder a bridge across the on/off switch on the PCB. If I want I could replace the micro switch with one that doesn't turn off when it is disconnected from the mains.

Now it is ready for a timer.

Cheers
