[@Albertojedi]

Good morning, Tom. This machine deserves a thorough review. No worries. Thanks!

[@someguy9520]

Don't worry, Tom From my perspective most of your active viewers don't mind longer videos. In fact I personally prefer longer style videos with more detail and depth.

[@BlaMNA1]

It is good that it is detailed. KZbin has no shortage of short uninformative reviews, that not help you decide which machine is good for your use case. They only good enough to put machine on your radar, and that's all. So thank you, it was helpful!

[@petes_CE]

No apologies necessary. You can always add the word "in-depth" or "deep dive" to indicate to viewer that is going to be a longer review.

[@kimbridge5592]

good info though

[@WrongButtonWB]

When it comes to TCC, there's no such thing as a "video too long". Thank you Tom, really enjoyed your take on this machine.

[@imanrouhani9171]

I bought the new philips Lattego 5500 about 3 weeks ago. Had different drinks daily as a family. I recognized that the milk foam is really terrible. The espresso quality was pretty good, but if you prefer to drink milk-based drinks, then I wouldn’t recommend philips at all. At least with the current Lattego technology. Today I gave back the Philips machine and bought the Delonghi Eletta Explore and beside the Material differences, I could definitely feel the higher quality of the machine. The foam is much finer and the fact that you can adjust the „foaminess“ of your milk ist great. Thank you for your time and the great video!

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

@@imanrouhani9171 Thanks for that good feedback! I agree on those points. 👍🏻

[@troyezell5841]

That is the information I’ve been looking for. Thank you for the comment!

[@imanrouhani9171]

@@troyezell5841 I was also looking for this kind of comparison back then, so I thought sharing it may help others considering these two machines. I’m happy you found it helpful!

I was not sure which to pick but well I guess now I know

[@DamianNocun]

I have Philips 5500 for 2nd day and totally agree, on top Philips has really loud water pump. Milk foam is really terrible. I will return it and change to this DeLonghi

[@drevo50]

We have a Magnifica ESAM 4200 that's in its 15th year - regularly serviced, parts replaced as needed and it works pretty much as new. We also have (an even older) GCP and MDF grinder: I prefer the espresso from this combo but the Delonghi makes about 90% of the coffee in our house because it's so easy. They are great machines and it's interesting to see what a modern one can do. Thank you for your videos, always interesting.

[@mattmathematics3591]

Thats amazing ig u were lucky my one was broken when i got it 😂 got the part replaced and it brome again after 3 years

[@Lorec03]

Exquisite, exactly what I was waiting for. A very thorough demo on functions and UI of this great unit. I had no idea I would be this interested in watching a video about super automatics. You gotta know its a delonghi super auto, when you hear them start. I have a magnifica S at my office and it sounds exactly same way. It's always weird to me how you say, that your beans are 3-4 weeks old, in my area all local roasters roast on daily basis (I guess pour over/filter is more popular and customers always ask for their beans to be ground) so I have to wait a week before indulging in a cup of specialty coffee. Cheers!

[@keshudioo]

Even if you're into the snobbish espresso culture, you can admit that there is definitely market for automatic coffee machines such as this. It's comfortable to use, has many features, can produce different types of drinks. Can be a life-saver for many.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

And much cheaper than going to Starbucks!

[@bilal85]

Thank you a lot I bought the machine based on this video and it’s fantastic The tips and instructions in this video helped a lot to utilize this magnificent machine.

[@hydetannen4819]

Thank you for taking the time to show us all of its capabilities. Have a great day! 👍🏻✌🏼

[@aeonjoey3d]

On the magnifica EVO, to do hot cocoa, you can drop the powder in the cup, attach the milk frother full, select the grinder bypass but don’t actually load any coffee, hit the my latte button, and it’ll empty the frother into the glass and then cancel itself because there’s no coffee in the bypass. Magical!

[@RodiHajMousa]

Its not boring video at all its very helpful actually 😁. I bought same machine about few months ago And i love it and love the coffee taste from this machine

[@johnjury7316]

Have you tried using the pre-ground coffee option, as I find the manual is not at all clear as to the precise procedure, particularly how to select ground coffee.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Thanks for your feedback!

[@josemanuelmelero2867]

Thanks for the review! It's been really helpful to understand how the machine works, but I have a question about iced coffee. When making iced coffee, how do you add sugar before the coffee is poured over the ice? Since the machine serves the hot coffee directly onto the ice, there's no time to add sugar beforehand. This is important because most people drink their coffee with sugar, and I'd love to know the best way to ensure it dissolves properly. Do you have any recommendations? Thanks!

[@NitramGrude]

Thanks for the review. A question tho. So every time you start the machine you need to put a cup under to get the cleaning water, right? How often do you turn the machine off then? Does it auto shut down when not being used for some time or you do that manually? Also how often would this cleaning thing affect me? Every morning?

[@jonshepard85]

Yes as to every time you start the machine it cleans itself.

[@NitramGrude]

@jonshepard85 thanks! I guess that's good to have a clean system but silly that you need to go to the machine twice in order to get a cup of coffee in the morning 🤔

[@mcm80123456]

Is not the purpose of the tray under? ...instead of using a cup?

[@yousifnabih6663]

thanks for the detailed review. can you please compare a delonghi machine to a jura machine ☺️

[@joethuraisamy4980]

Please can you add a Jura review? I'd love a comparison between this and whatever Jura model you see fit (S8, Z10, etc.)

[@wolverines0607]

When you did the dry weight, it was for the doppio. But when you brewed the 2 to 1 shot, it was for a single espresso and not the doppio. So wouldnt the doppio be about 30 grams in the cup and then the single espresso be like 15 or so grams in the cup? Or am I misunderstanding?

[@fabioviz]

what is the difference between this machine and the Rivelia? And between the two, which do you think is the best?

[@thegammers]

I hope you like it 😊 I love cold drinks and cold brew of this machine.

[@rubenpico3281]

Hi Tom, great video. One question. I have the Eletta Explore and with the coffee intensity at maximum it only grinds 12g. Do you know if it only grinds that amount or if it can be adjusted to grind more grams? Thanks.

[@adindavanespen1015]

Do you ever pour your left over milk back into the carton or would you advise not to do that?

[@Nairezs]

Hi Tom, thanks for de very detailed review! I've also checked your comparison video with the dynamica and the magnifica. However, something that I didn't see was, how does this machine prepares 2 drinks at the same time? Can it do that? Does it 2 times grind for both, or can it grind 1 time for a longer duration?

[@mikeyfafa]

I'm interested in the cold brew feature.. I've not had one before but I understand that you brew the coffee cold to remove the bitterness. You can then heat the coffee to have a less bitter hot coffee. Is that possible here or could you just put it in the microwave ?

[@philipjc1]

I bought the machine directly Delonghi. It does not support the app . I called Delonghi and asked how to use the app, they said it did not support the app, probably why they were selling if for $1499 US. It has been is use every day for the past 2 years, no problems so far. I see all your temperatures are in Celsius. My hot drinks reach 190 degrees F. When you are making tea it will adjust temperature to the type of tea you are using.

[@thedude2897]

You bought the older model without the app and cold brew function.

[@philipjc1]

@philipjc1 Right. You have model ecam45055S which is the older model without the app and cold brew. The ecam45086S is the newest model with the functions that costs a tad more.

[@petersvan7880]

Excellent review! Still, it makes me appreciate my simple Melita filter machine even more. Less time spent cleaning, and quicker set-up :) To me, a real "superautomatic" machine should somehow take care of everything, and not require multiple steps of cleaning, or replacing the milk container for just hot water.

[@aeonjoey3d]

Interesting! So the addition of the COLD milk frother carafe adds an interesting wrinkle. Hmmm I have the magnifica EVO and every afternoon I just pull a dopio shot - squirt 4 pumps of tilorani white mocha sauce in a large glass, swirl in the glass, add about half way up with ice, and fill up the rest with milk. Add top, straw, swirl. I’m really wanting to know how the cold foam could enhance that.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

It's not exactly cold, but cooler. If I remember right, it's about 40 degrees C.

[@MarioSilva-ri7fu]

Got one on the 10th, it's a great machine! We love the ability of doing a great range of cold and hot drinks!

Hi Tom. It was really useful. Quick one. do you think the bar pressure is 9 for this machine?

That’s a good question. I should attach an animator in line one time and have a look. I’m guessing it is somewhere between six and nine, considering the end result.

[@dubsondubs]

Thanks for the review! If you chose small size with intensity 5, that would grind for the same amount as x large with intensity 5? So the only difference with sizes is the amount of water/ratio? Essentially I’m trying to figure out how to get the best combo of size and strength.

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Hello there! I’m guessing that your beans are probably too old - or in other words roasted too long ago. It could also be that your grinder is not ideal for espresso.

I'd say it's the same, drink wise. Except this does cold drinks. Both made in Italy.

[@thedude2897]

I've had both. I find the Eletta to be better.

[@iggyman83]

Tom, would you recommend this or the Rivelia for espresso? Im considering a coffee bar with a single boiler nachine, singke dosing grinder and then fully auto for guests and times when i cant do the ritual. We have delonghi at work and its so much better than pods. About 80-90pct of the quality i can get in my current breville and DF54 combo

[@karenpenner2231]

Did you mention anything about the temperature of the macchiato? Have been looking for a new super auto but they never get the milk hot enough for me. I have an older saeco xelsis but it has a steam wand which I use instead of the carafe system, because the drinks were always lukewarm. That machine is 12 years old and after a good long life, needs to be replaced.

[@Sara-hw4jf]

Hi. I bought the machine. Used for cold latte.. the coffee came out is hot, the milk is in room temperature so why it is called ICED LATTE. whats the difference from the hot cafe latte.. Is my machine not functioning well or was my expectation too high ( I thought the coffee will come out as cold)- hot milky drinks (latte etc..) and espresso is pretty decent .. taste good

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Well, the iced drinks require ice to cool them down more. I think the only drink that comes out cool is the cold brew, which is at about 40 degrees C. The other drinks require the ice to cool them down further. The milky drinks should be about ambient temperature milk foam, if you use the white milk carafe. Cheers!

Just sensors and people not getting them clean in the right spots?

Thank you for the review!! My intention was to purchase a Sage (Breville) Barista Pro coffee machine. I know they're from different categories, but after seeing the review for this machine, I'm at a crossroads. Is there a significant difference in the quality of the coffee shot between these two machines that justifies the effort of making coffee manually? What is your recommendation for me? Thanks in advance!!

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Well, I am not going to go out on a limb and say this is as good as, or better than a semi-automatic portafilter machine. But if you choose the maximum dosage (intensity), and watch your ratios, I think it's going to get most users pretty close, depending on how developed your palate is. And I think that is why these are so popular. A lot of people would prefer the convenience of a superauto, over a semi-auto. I did a video on it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rX2WlYN-Z62li9k

Hi Tom! greetings from Spain!. We love coffee at home, and of course your job with it!. We learn a lot with you, please continue doing what you do. I have a simple question with this machine. ¿The brew group of this machine is the same in the delonghi rivelia? The reason for this question is because we are considering buying the rivelia. We are looking for a super automatic machine able to make great expresso (10 expressos per day at home) and that particular machine sims to have the same brew group like the dinamica plus or eletta. On the other hand we aren't interested at all in the milk steamer (we don't use it). Now, in Spain we can buy the rivelia without the automatic steamer at 579€ and we think it is a good choice. But we would like to know your advice. Thanks a lot!!

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Buenos dias! The Rivelia has a slightly smaller brew group, but I guess it can do the same size doses. At least that's what they told me at the store. The Rivelia is really quite a nice machine. I will be releasing a teaser of it this week.

Would be nice if you can review the Delonghi Rivelia in the future. The Bean switcher looks like it is very useful, for that reason alone I would switch from my Magnifica Start (Which I've been quite happy actually, in my tests, it actually grinds 16g consistently, especially if I single dose it.). Whenever I have friends at home, these machines are great. Doing 6-10 coffees in my bambino would be a pain in the ass :D

I think the Dinamica Plus would be my recommendation because it's a little cheaper, and makes the same drinks. Cheers!

@@TomsCoffeeCorner one of the KZbinrs did a demo (they are Canadian) between the Plus and the Explore. The Explore had much finer froth. Did you find that to be true? Perhaps the newer models are getting better?

[@peterwjneale1]

Great Video! What is the exact model of the machine you reviewed?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Hi! It's the 450.86, linked here: geni.us/DelonghiElettaExplore (affiliate link)

[@mattmathematics3591]

Delonghi is good because u can choose how foamy your milk is. But it breaks very easily you need to open it up and maintain is quite well

[@blinsmaslom3263]

Apparently, De'Longhi have the highest reliability rating of any full automatic machines.

Eletta Explore Cold Brew ECAM450.65.S VS Eletta Explore ECAM450.86.T : What is the difference between them? Can you explain?

[@jan-willemdekker4084]

The T is for the titanium model and it come with an extra to go cup.

Is Revilia coming to the states?

[@TomsCoffeeCorner]

Gosh, I don't know. Maybe. Delonghi is mysterious.

[@olhasliusar4917]

Thank you! It's very helpful!

[@rexxpedition]

Would be awesome to see this compared to the new Kitchenaid KF7/KF8

[@lavayuki]

There is the cheaper Eletta Cappuccino, which seems similar to the Evo which am also considering
