You helped us make our decision after months of bantering back and forth. Absolutely in love with this machine and the coffee that we can get from it. Formerly a Gaggia owner, and this is so "simply" wonderful!

Why did the steam button flash orange after you have turned it on? Because it needs descaling? The reason I'm asking this is because I bought a used delonghi dedica. And when I turn it on, the steam button flashes orange. The seller says he descaled it before selling it. And I don't know if I need to descale it again or just press something. This is my first coffee machine, so I don't really understand.

Thank you for your good exposition. I have two questions and your answers would be of great value in order to decide which machine to get. 1- grinder : are they durable , I mean under a family of two coffee users? 2- milk foam. I have Delonghi Lattissima One for caps and the foaming system is not that good. Do Dinámica and Eletta Explore have improved foam system? Thank you

Anyone recommend good coffee for cappuccino or Latte

how can you get this is Canada ?

Ariete 1313 is it ok?

Fantastic video. My first few coffees weren't pouring correctly, i made some adjustments after watching this video and it worked a treat. Went from low volume and low pressure to a steady pour with 9bar that evens off to about 8 towards the end. Thank you!

Really…….could you be bothered?

I love the mug!

Germany

The Euro Version has an Americano Button option and also hot water for instant coffee & Tea. Sadly ours doesn't

Been a breville user for too long, gonna reconsider this for sure tbh

It looks nice, but unfortunately it’s a lot of work. I guess I’ll have to go for the phillips 5500

Are you gonna review the new Gaggia Classic E24? 😊

I'm modifying my ecp, is it necessary to mount a capillary tube? Why does my needle vibrate so much?

How often does it take to clean up?

What would be the best single boiler espresso machine for home use on the market based on its build quality and service? I know there are many, but if you had to choose one, which would it be? Good luck on your channel and see you in the next video.

I just bought the coffee maker, the one with a thicker steam spout. But there’s an issue that I’m facing is that the steam spout wouldn’t stop dispensing water. It’s diluting the milk and it’s so strong that it’s making a mess. Could you please provide an input? Why is it happening or did I just purchase a defective piece 😢

Do you think it is ok to program the quantity without coffee in the filter? Will it deliver the same amount later when there is coffee in the filter? Thanks for great videos. I just got my dedica, and I have had great shots and milkies. Best.

Recommend one taller espresso cup

I have another problem with this machine. When it starts after few hours being off, it immediately shows 3 lights blinking error. If I turn it off and on it will eventually work, and it will not trigger any error unless it stays off for a few hours. The machine is not leaking from nowhere. When it delivers the coffee I noticed that the coffee flow seams a little intermittent. The other nose, hot water, delivers perfect flow. Tom, can you advise me how to try to diagnostic?

nice one. just ordered mine! #eletta

It's quirky, but it's lovely! Love the espresso it makes, it loves fine coffee grind

Can it make matcha

Tom how does this compare with each machine modified, the boiler Délonghi ECP3630 or 3420? As far as temperature and flavor profile? I am looking for a budget machine between $100-$500 and yet probably also need a nice grinder. Suggestions? The temp of extraction is important to me. So much to think about! Thanks Tom you're so helpful ❤

Thank you very much for your informative video. My machine arrived today as well. What confuses me a little is the positioning of the portafilter. In the manual’s pictures, it shows that it should be turned so far to the right that it’s not centered but fully turned to the end. However, in all the KZbin videos, it seems to be centered. So, do I need to turn it all the way to the end on the right or not? Thank you!

Before making coffee each time my machine releases water first ,how do I set this ?

I´m looking at getting this machine, your video´s are really great and detailed.

Sounds like something you get after drinking instant coffee.

do you ever clean coffee grinder from the residuals and oil from coffee?

Hi Tom I am following you from UK. Is the Philips 5500 worth buying and what do you advise me?

This is a great video and I am now off to adjust my grinding dial. Thanks 👌

According to Lance Hedrick it's not a good thing that the motherboard does not have any protection (plastic or whatever). What is your opinion on that? Greetings!

are all those three models 2200/1200/800 same ?

I love your videos soooo much Tom! Would you choose this one over the Eletta Explore? 😊 I'm torn between the two!

From New Zealand just brought breville $1500 touch impress. Save $800 in nz

It's worth going for the more expensive DeLonghi, Philips aren't experts in coffee machines, just OK at best.

Very good review, I got a very good impression! Very good job! I also wouldnt go with a touchscreen, too cumbersome to operate. The automatic puck prep sounds delicious, but honestly would wait for the next versions/iteration to get rid of teething problems like uneven surfaces. AutoMilq is a bit disappointing honestly. I like the look of the machine in general, also being very compact and being not too deep (problem with smaller kitchen desks). How precise is the water temperature? Sage/Breville had really inconsistencies there from Barista Pro extracting too hot to Express Impress going too low.

You mention that the third column in Latte Machchato regulates the total serving but in my test it only changes the milk ratio. Can you double check?

#LuxeCafe: It gets to a way more interesting comparison when you compare the ES701EU with the Oracle Jet. Because then you need no funnel anymore and you have the integrated semi automatic tamper and the hot water outlet. The killer argument then is: All this for 150 bugs more. And THAT right away is nearly unbeatable. If you just want a consistent coffee experience with no big fuss around and the ability to auto-adapt to new beans, there you go. 🙂

After your review we chose the dinamica plus. We however had no luck with the preground option which we also use. The machine did not register that coffee was added, it fell through or blocked. The machine was also not intuitive with the preground. So many buttons to fail at getting a coffeeSo we returned it after two days. Thanks to your reviews we now have made another choice. Thank you.

My goodness thankyou again. I am also currently living in Germany. So you have helped with both two machine choices and now help with coffee choices in the supermarket. Very grateful that I found your channel, I have learnt so much.

#ninja cafe. I like that the ninja has the bean hopper integrated into the machine instead of the afterthought look of it on top.

#luxe, price and Design for me wins. Cleaning also, cleaning around 4/5 towers after a spill or general dust looks like a total nightmare.

Tom, this is just because unbearable. I’ve got 3 machines now and I just bought the same basket and next is the machine!

Thank you again for all your ninja videos. They have been so very helpful as have all your other reviews. I finally feel like I have chosen the perfect machine for us. Can't wait till it arrives in a month or so. Yay thank you ninja for getting it into Europe.

Why would one do this in the first place? I’ve just ordered an EC685. What’s wrong with the original steam wand? Thanks.

Do you still have to drain the boiler after steaming like on the stock version?
