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.
Thanks so much for your expertise and evaluations. We were trying to decide between Gaggia, Phillips, and Delonghi. Went with the Delonghi Magnifica Evo, which now has iced coffee options. Used your link to purchase it since you've been so helpful! Love my machine and happy to support you, Tom!
I bought the Explore and I'm really happy with it, especially because it was on promotion. I do all the range of drinks and it has been great. Never going back again to coffee pod machines!
Thank you so much for covering the basics. Most videos go gaga over milk-based drinks so you never see if the machine can even do a decent shot. I wish I had seen your videos before buying my Gaggia Magenta Plus. The grinder just doesn't go fine enough (I confirmed that by grinding my own and using the bypass doser). The shot was much better. I've thrown out so many beans just trying to make up for this failing. Also, I thought everyone used the same brew mechanism so it's nice to see a different design.
I bought Magnifica Evo (steam wand edition) a few months ago. I work from home full time so ease of use was a priority for me. Fantastic machine and excellent value!
Wish I saw this review before I purchased my Philips Lattego. Anyway, I returned the Philips. I had a Delonghi Primadonna Class for 5 years until it broke. Extremely happy with that machine. I recently purchased an Eletta Expore on sale after strongly considering the Dinamica Plus. The puck size is everything folks. If you like strong coffee with intensity Delonghi is the way to go, especially the Dinamica or the Eletta Explore! Between them I'd say it's personal preference between the design and Eletta scores high on cold drinks. Cold Brew is fanstastic.
Funny I am in the same position as you were and haven’t made my decision. I love strong nice milk based coffee. Thanks for your comment. It has helped me make my decision. I was literally leaning to get the lattego from Philips and you have changed my mind!

@@neekieful Hi Monique, that’s very kind of you - thank you for your support! Hope you enjoy getting acquainted with and using your machine. 👍🏻 Cheers, Tom
I am about to buy Delonghi machine and I have watched plenty of your videos. Every one of them is very useful and gave me very important details about the machines. Great job!
Thank you so much for all your videos! It was really helpful when you shown that philips didnt make real espresso so i went for DeLonghi instead, and I finally decided and i bought the Dinamica Plus 380.85. 😊
I got the middle one (without the BT App) a couple of months back. Best gadget I`ve bought in a long time. A mug of 2 bean strength using either Sainsbury own blend, or Machu Pichu beans, is perfect every single time.
I've watched more of your videos than I care to admit and find yours the best. I bought and Evo and mine includes a cold coffee option which was key for me. Thanks!
@@TomsCoffeeCornerI just bought the same model as well ( ECAM29084SB). It has 7 recipes: espresso, cappuccino, latte macchiato, iced coffee, coffee, hot water, and My Latte. Good videos, Tom. You helped me decide to purchase the EVO
@@TomsCoffeeCorner perhaps they mean “iced coffee”. Not quite the same as a cold brew, but my Evo offers an iced coffee option (ECAM29084SB) as well as for a total of 7 options: espresso, cappuccino, latte macchiato, iced coffee, coffee, hot water, and My Latte.
Love your reviews. Thanks for taking the time to be so thorough. I've come back several times, and still are deciding which one to get. I do have to say, that Delonghi as a company is maddening. I had no idea there were so many different versions of the same machine. For instance, the Dinamica Plus 370, which is the version you have here has the phone app. Then there's the 380 version that does not. But there are other sneaky changes they've made to the version differences, like changes to the bar pressure, or menu options. Why? So frustrating. I'm really impressed with the Rivelia, but I can't get it in the US. For now I'm torn between the Eletta Explore or the Magnifica Plus. Holiday pricing has just started to roll out here, so these currently are a difference of about 500 usd. My only hesitation on the Plus is I can't find any data on puck size or grind timings. With the brew group being the same, this is really the key difference. But is it a worthy 500.00 difference? Is the Magnifica Plus and the Dinamica Plus pretty much the same machine feature-wise? Coming from being only a drip machine user, I'm also concerned if I'm going to like this at all?
If I had to guess, I'd say the Magnifica Plus will be the same as the Rivelia and Dinamica Plus, puck wise. But yes, it's frustrating how many different variants they make. It's stilly, really. I honestly think you'd be happy with any of the above. They're all way nicer than drip, in my opinion.
All the BEST differnce in taste I have done now is using 22-24G of coffee in my pucks. I think this is the most under estimated rreason, the amount of grams of coffee. ALL, and I mean ALl, maybe a few slipped, but ALL preach 18g . I tried over 300$ worth of top coffee over a few months and ALL upto 19 even 20grams were no good to OK. Now with just a few more grams, a few clicks looser grind, I am getting gold ...on the La Spazialle 54mm. For SUpAuto to do with 15g.....and getting great shots....well, maybe we or me....are doing something wromg, or our taste buds are vastly different! LOL..I am enjoying your vids bud!!
Another great review tom! Two Magnifica ESAM3400s sold by Starbucks in Canada (both purchased used) served our family well for around 8 years. These machines were solid and I was able to repair them myself including replacing the boiler and using parts from the original to repair the second. My sister-in-law has one she purchased new and it's still going strong after well over 10 years of daily use! When our second one eventually died, we purchased a De'Longhi Magnfica ESAM04110S. In less than 3 months it wouldn't power on and the local authorized repair shop concluded it wasn't worth repairing and so Delonghi replaced it with a brand new Dinamica. I agree the Dinamica makes slightly better coffee! We maintained the Dinamica extremely well, with regular cleanings and descalings. After 2 years when the transmission failed, Delonghi refused to repair or replace it on warranty because it was a warranty replacement for the Magnifica, our local authorized repair center told us they wouldn't recommend repairing it at a cost of ~ $500 because replacing the transmission was such a major job that there was a high risk of other issues and it would only have a 30 day warranty. They were nice enough to lend us a loaner Dinamica for 3 months while they worked with Delinghi to determine what was wrong with ours. The loaner made worse coffee and very inconsistent tasting (not sure why). Thanks to Tom's expertise and awesome video (ua-cam.com/video/au92VvBYLrA/v-deo.htmlsi=Gugei3zo6C0B_MPz), we've replaced it with a Delonghi ECP 3630 purchased on sale at Walmart for $144 CAD ($104 USD). Out of the box using the pressurized portafilter with pre-ground beans, our espresso tastes significantly better than what the Dinamica made! All these Delonghi's have the same steam wand that requires removing the panerello attachment to froth properly, but the ECP3630 has far superior steam pressure for steaming! Our bottomless portafilter has arrived and I'm excited to use it along with our new Turin DF54 grinder to experience espresso at a whole new level! If you're lazy, convenience is your top priority, you enjoy milk foam on your mediocre espresso, and you have lots of cash to spend, buy a Delonghi super automatic! If you enjoy coffee shop quality espresso and are on a budget, do yourself a huge favor and invest in a good grinder which you can leverage for many years for espresso, drip, french press, etc. and basic manual machine :-)
@@TomsCoffeeCorner Unfortunately not! Here’s a video on a Delonghi transmission repair: ua-cam.com/video/HZ8oQUGtPjc/v-deo.htmlsi=MVwcL6hYwNEofzPx Repair shop told us the entire machine requires disassembly which creates potential of other issues.
Wonderful! I have had a MiiCoffee Apex for four months and my wife just picked up a magnifico evo. She isn’t a fan of really strong coffe, loves milk drinks and will use the machine for coffee quite a bit. Thanks for your reviews, they helped her decide.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner I have to add, I watched. your reviews of the Apex before I bought it. And even though my wife loves the convenience of the super-auto, she never refuses a flat-white when I make one on the Apex.
As always great review ! I have been thinking about getting the Elletta Explore. But I don't care for cold drinks so I can't justify the price. I would love to see you doing a review on the Gaggia Cadorna Prestige. Thats the machine I'm thinking about buying since it's around $700 and has a lot of great features.
Awesome :)) Your videos helped me alot when finding a new superautomatic for my parents. Only been using Saeco/Philips machines for years and years.. But after seeing your video on the Magnifica I went for that one. I must agree - the quality of coffee from that machine IS better than Saeco/Philips. I was actually pleasant surprised! Gotta be the best tasting coffee from a superautomatic I`ve tasted so far. And my parents are also very happy with the super easy user interface :)
Thank you for this comment. I was torn between the Phillips 2200 and Magnifica S. I’ve also read that the Phillips machine gets dirty from inside quickly as it spills coffee powder everywhere. Did you notice anything like that?
@@thegreatskywalker i have been using philips full automatic machines for 10 years and all of them have the same grinder which is open from structure and that allows easy cleaning and maintenance but for the closed grinder of delonghi that maintenance isnt required so. But never had issues with powder going everywhere and must admit i havent cleaned as much as the guide said😅 both a good inwould say better judge on taste cost and build quality i guess
@@thegreatskywalker Have not noticed that no.. But I must say that it was much easier to take out the brewing unit for cleaning on the Delonghi vs Philips/Saeco. What also Tom explains with Philips using a lot less coffee - explains why its been so far from "real espresso machines" with portafilter and 18-22g doses for double espresso. I also think the built in grinder is far better with the Delonghi. The grinder is one of the most important aspects and it can make a world of difference.
@@thegreatskywalker Hello again :) I am at my parents and just cleaned the machine for them. It was super easy and there was only a little “coffee mess/leftovers” at the “shower curtain” section. My experience with Saeco/Philips is that it’s much more messier. Thought of your original question and wanted to do an update. On the Saeco/Philips grounds and coffee leftovers are “all over” the brewing unit inside. So I am very happy with my parents new machine :))
Very nice video and very much appreciated! You are getting closer and closer to a Jura machine :). I would be very interested to hear your opinion about Jura.
Hi Tom, Wondering if you can advise on the difference between Dinamica vs Dinamica Plus. your reviews are amazing. I really like the sound of Dinamica plus. Here in Canada, they have the regular Dinamica for a good price at Costco, and it is like 700 more everywhere else for the plus model (and you don't have the amazing Costco return policy). I see that the regular D is not made in Italy and wonder if there is an implication on the quality. Hard to find a clear comparison / review of the regular model.
Can you please do a review of the Jura Ena 4 and compare them in terms of quality and reliability vs Delonghi, Saeco, Gaggia, etc.? Thank you so much. Huge fan here.
Thank you for these informative videos, one thing to add if I may; there is a difference between them in terms of water pressure, which is as you know is essential to make a good espresso Thanks again
Hello. Great compare. Please tell me how the size of the grinded beans pack compares to the delonghi magnifica Plus? Im torn betweeen rivelia and magnifica plus.
Hey Tom - great videos! I am leaning towards the magnifica Start over the Evo -- would you conclude the Start has identical max dosage of 12g like you mention here for the Evo?
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.
Well, the Rivelia has a slightly smaller brew group, as the machine itself is smaller. Should still do similar doses though. I have the feeling the Rivelia will be similar to the Dinamica Plus.
Hey Tom, I've been really enjoying your new uploads, but more importantly, I've also learned a tremendous amount since watching your older videos. Do you think you'll be doing a full review of the Magnifica Start?
Hi there! I did a truncated review, since it's essentially the same as the Magnifica Evo: ua-cam.com/video/d5niedTxpY4/v-deo.html Let me know what you think. Too short, or is it ok?
@@TomsCoffeeCorner I had watched the video, and I made this comment because I thought it was a bit short, but now that I've watched it back again, I think a fun video idea would be to do a comparison of both machines since they're so similar. Even if there're only subtle differences, I think it'd be a good one for people who are new to superautomatics. What do you think? Either way, I'll always be tuning in, and thank you for all the great, entertaining and informative videos you make. Cheers from Canada!
Now looking at 3 delonghi machines. These are here in Thailand rather affordable. They are: - Magnifica Evo ECAM 290.81.TB for about 970 Eur - Dinamica ECAM 350.55 for about 1070 Eur - Dinamica Plus ECAM 370.95.T for about 1350 Eur I like black coffee and espresso. My wife likes cappuccino. I used to have the smallest Jura but it broke down and where I live service is difficult and it was not repairable. So time to change. For the rest, I don't care about features. Would be nice to easily clean. And just great taste of coffee. Any suggestions
Great video! I have the Eletta Explore, and love it! What confuses me, though, is the "2x espresso" option. Because that one also makes two espressos from one bigger puck. So what is the difference between that option and Doppio+?
Thank you for the reviews. Can you comment as to why for example the machines dispense at a 4:1 ratio for an espresso, whereas my understanding that the norm appears to be 2:1? I actually have the Eletta Explore which dispenses a similar ratio that I enjoy, or am I perhaps missing out by not changing the grind and/or water quantity to achieve the golden 2:1?
7:44 - you must have a scale in your brain because those numbers are moving to 30g.. LOL..... By the way - based on your recommendation a year ago, I purchased the Delonghi Dinamica.. and it has been FANTASTIC! Thanks for all you do!!
magnifica sounds like it is catching its own gears while grinding the beans. we have a sage at work and grinding is so much quieter, even more so than the other 2. Eletta is more similar in sound
My only hesitation on these machines is the steel grinder. Is there any version of these machines that has a ceramic grinder? Or do you feel a ceramic grinder, with its lower temperature operation, vs a steel grinder doesn't make a significant difference in typical day-to-day use? Thank you!
Hello, I have Magnifica Evo and to my surprise, it grinds exactly 10s on 3 beans and around 9s on 2 beans. Without to choose x2 option. Actually I like that. ...May be a different submodel?
Love your reviews. I love the Dinamica and the eletta. There's a way to make to-go coffe on the Dinamica? And a way to make the milk come out cold from the dinamica? Cose if that's the case I may choose the Dinamica Plus.
Thank you much for answering. Im still saving for one of them and Im not sure which one to get yet, so here I am revisiting your great reviews 😅 @@TomsCoffeeCorner
Bought the eletta explore last month even though i could get the philips sarco xelsis suprema for about the same price (normally retail price is 600€ more) and the cheaper philips latte go series are build quality wise pretty bad compared to delonghi in my opinion to much plastic. Suprised that even the xelsis has same grinder as the cheapest philips full auto. I recommand you try the xelsis to though. But for me my old machine was a philips and i had to get use to the delonghi. I tested both machines when i got the eletta explore and you are right about the cup size. Philips uses less beans per cup/shot. Also the sensitity of the grinder level seem not making a lot of difference with my old philips but it does big time with elletta explore. I have it on 4 now if i go lower than that i get watery pucks and the coffee comes out very slow and inconsistent so for me the sweet spot seem to be 4. Thanks for your tests btw i learn a lot to make my favorite drinks
Great review and video, but I'm surprised that you forgot to mention that the EVO also has a double espresso feature that gives you the maximum strength possible of 14-15g, same as the Dinamica and the Eletta. You simply hit the X2 button and adjust the volume accordingly.
@thegreatskywalker Positive, I've weighed the dry pucks and timed the grind. What I got for the 3 strengths is about 7, 9 and 11 grams and 14-15 grams for the X2. The X2 pucks are visibly larger, and the grinder also runs for 10 seconds.
@@CechMtl-gm9yq Thank you for the reply. I hope @TomsCoffeeCorner makes a part 2 video on puck sizes with Magnifica S 13.5 grams, and Magnifica Evo with X2 button.
Sorry, I tried this yesterday, and it made no difference. I think on my machine that it just doubles the water. Grinding was still between 7-8 seconds. Maybe it was the case on the firmware of your model, but no longer on mine.
@TomsCoffeeCorner That's too bad, thanks for checking though. I figured that there might be something wrong with your machine or a difference between the models, I have the NA version model # ECAM29084SB. With X2, it grinds for 10 seconds, and it produces an 80 ml shot, I stop it at 40. According to the manual, a Doppio+ produces 120ml at default.
Great video. In the UK the Dynamica plus doesn't have the app connectivity on new models. Not sure why they removed it, probably so people buy the more expansive models. Also my Dynamica plus was made in Romania, so looks like not all made in Italy.
@@MildManneredJon In each market, there are several ECAM variants, from the entry level ECAM 3xx.70, which is usually the cheapest, to the higher end ECAM 3xx.85 and ECAM 3xx.95. The entry level model have slightly different hardware ie a weaker 15 bar pump and no connectivity
Hey Tom- Have you ever tried/reviewed the old Magnifica S? It has a "strength" dial prominent that has so many levels... wondering if its max puck size gets to the level of the Dinamica?
It depends on how good one is at milk steaming. I can steam silkier than these machines can provide, but that wasn't always the case. It's pretty darn good milk foam that these machines provide.
In the UK I bought the Dinamica Plus ECAM370.70.B it doesn't have connectivity or profiles. What it does do, when a coffee is made it leaks a small amount of water into the drip tray. Delonghi UK say a small amount of water in the drip tray as the coffee is made is normal.
I think the 370.70 also has a 15 bar pump vs 19 bar on the 370.95, so it probably cannot pump through 15g of finely ground coffee. Does it even have the doppio+ mode?
What about the Magnifica Plus? Does it also grind more coffee? It has a Doppio+ selection, so it would seem so. Coming from a manual with 20 gram ability, so my taste buds prefer stronger espresso pulls.
Each Delonghi machine uses the same size brew unit. But it seems like there is a programming difference between each model and their own variants as well. I've tested my EVO, and it definitely grinds 14 grams with the doppio (x2) option. I've weighed the pucks, and I timed the grind at 10 sec. The easiest way for you to check is to time the grind. 8 sec is about 11-12 grams and 10 sec is about 14-15 grams as a reference since they also use the same grinder.
I originally bought the Evo, but it had something wrong with it so sent it back and bought the Dinamica Plus. I liked it, but really wanted the hot foam, so I sold it and bought the Eletta Explore. I've been very happy with it. I have the model that doesn't have wifi or the true brew over ice option. Saved a little money that way.
What do you mean with “ I really wanted the hot foam”? The dinamica plus doesn’t make hot foam? I’m hesitating between Delongui Eletta explorer and Siemens EQ900, for me it’s important to have cream latte not just airy foam. Thanks for your help!
@soniamartin2729 Exactly. The Dinamica only does cold foam, which is why I sold it and bought the Eletta Explore. It does both hot and cold so you get best of both worlds.
With all the prep, clean-up and maintenance needed for these machines I feel like buying something like Breville Express Impress is much better choice.
Hi, is it possible to adjust coffee weight and extraction time for an expresso on the Eletta explore? Also, can you adjust milk temperature? Or you just can modify what the display shows you? Thanks
Hi Tom, I’ve read reviews that a lot of people with those machines have trouble with the milk carafe after descaling. Its stops pumping milk after doing a descale…Did you heard anything about this issue ?
@@TomsCoffeeCorner there’s a Delonghi Eletta Cappuccino Top and Eletta Cappuccino Evo on sale right now and i’m thinking should I get one of those even they are older models ? Are they better than the newer magnifica Start ?

Hi, would u rather take magnifica evo or dinamica latte (not plus)? I watched all your videos and there isnt this kind of comparing.. For example, dinamica plus is using up to 15g of coffe, and evo can go up to 10g, because prices are similar between evo and dinamica latte, i am curious can dinamica latte extract 15g as well cause thats something that is deal breaker for me.. I will use machine mostly for espresso. To be more precise DELONGHI Magnifica Evo ECAM290.61.B vs DeLonghi ECAM.350.50.B
@@TomsCoffeeCornerI know the volume can be set, but if it’s less than 8oz and I buy the machine my wife will kill me AND I’d have to return the product - that’s a lot of headaches.

For now I'm torn between the Eletta Explore or the Magnifica Plus. Holiday pricing has just started to roll out here, so these currently are a difference of about 500 usd. My only hesitation on the Plus is I can't find any data on puck size or grind timings. With the brew group being the same, this is really the key difference. But is it a worthy 500.00 difference? Is the Magnifica Plus and the Dinamica Plus pretty much the same machine feature-wise?
Coming from being only a drip machine user, I'm also concerned if I'm going to like this at all?
If I had to guess, I'd say the Magnifica Plus will be the same as the Rivelia and Dinamica Plus, puck wise. But yes, it's frustrating how many different variants they make. It's stilly, really. I honestly think you'd be happy with any of the above. They're all way nicer than drip, in my opinion.
All the BEST differnce in taste I have done now is using 22-24G of coffee in my pucks. I think this is the most under estimated rreason, the amount of grams of coffee. ALL, and I mean ALl, maybe a few slipped, but ALL preach 18g . I tried over 300$ worth of top coffee over a few months and ALL upto 19 even 20grams were no good to OK. Now with just a few more grams, a few clicks looser grind, I am getting gold ...on the La Spazialle 54mm. For SUpAuto to do with 15g.....and getting great shots....well, maybe we or me....are doing something wromg, or our taste buds are vastly different! LOL..I am enjoying your vids bud!!
Another great review tom! Two Magnifica ESAM3400s sold by Starbucks in Canada (both purchased used) served our family well for around 8 years. These machines were solid and I was able to repair them myself including replacing the boiler and using parts from the original to repair the second. My sister-in-law has one she purchased new and it's still going strong after well over 10 years of daily use! When our second one eventually died, we purchased a De'Longhi Magnfica ESAM04110S. In less than 3 months it wouldn't power on and the local authorized repair shop concluded it wasn't worth repairing and so Delonghi replaced it with a brand new Dinamica. I agree the Dinamica makes slightly better coffee!
We maintained the Dinamica extremely well, with regular cleanings and descalings. After 2 years when the transmission failed, Delonghi refused to repair or replace it on warranty because it was a warranty replacement for the Magnifica, our local authorized repair center told us they wouldn't recommend repairing it at a cost of ~ $500 because replacing the transmission was such a major job that there was a high risk of other issues and it would only have a 30 day warranty. They were nice enough to lend us a loaner Dinamica for 3 months while they worked with Delinghi to determine what was wrong with ours. The loaner made worse coffee and very inconsistent tasting (not sure why).
Thanks to Tom's expertise and awesome video (ua-cam.com/video/au92VvBYLrA/v-deo.htmlsi=Gugei3zo6C0B_MPz), we've replaced it with a Delonghi ECP 3630 purchased on sale at Walmart for $144 CAD ($104 USD). Out of the box using the pressurized portafilter with pre-ground beans, our espresso tastes significantly better than what the Dinamica made! All these Delonghi's have the same steam wand that requires removing the panerello attachment to froth properly, but the ECP3630 has far superior steam pressure for steaming! Our bottomless portafilter has arrived and I'm excited to use it along with our new Turin DF54 grinder to experience espresso at a whole new level!
If you're lazy, convenience is your top priority, you enjoy milk foam on your mediocre espresso, and you have lots of cash to spend, buy a Delonghi super automatic! If you enjoy coffee shop quality espresso and are on a budget, do yourself a huge favor and invest in a good grinder which you can leverage for many years for espresso, drip, french press, etc. and basic manual machine :-)
Thanks so much for sharing your experience! Could you have just replaced your brew group, or what do you mean by transmission otherwise?

Unfortunately not! Here’s a video on a Delonghi transmission repair: ua-cam.com/video/HZ8oQUGtPjc/v-deo.htmlsi=MVwcL6hYwNEofzPx
Repair shop told us the entire machine requires disassembly which creates potential of other issues.
Wonderful! I have had a MiiCoffee Apex for four months and my wife just picked up a magnifico evo.
She isn’t a fan of really strong coffe, loves milk drinks and will use the machine for coffee quite a bit. Thanks for your reviews, they helped her decide.
Glad to hear it, hope you both enjoy your machines!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner I have to add, I watched. your reviews of the Apex before I bought it. And even though my wife loves the convenience of the super-auto, she never refuses a flat-white when I make one on the Apex.
As always great review ! I have been thinking about getting the Elletta Explore. But I don't care for cold drinks so I can't justify the price. I would love to see you doing a review on the Gaggia Cadorna Prestige. Thats the machine I'm thinking about buying since it's around $700 and has a lot of great features.
Awesome :)) Your videos helped me alot when finding a new superautomatic for my parents. Only been using Saeco/Philips machines for years and years.. But after seeing your video on the Magnifica I went for that one. I must agree - the quality of coffee from that machine IS better than Saeco/Philips. I was actually pleasant surprised! Gotta be the best tasting coffee from a superautomatic I`ve tasted so far. And my parents are also very happy with the super easy user interface :)
Thank you for this comment. I was torn between the Phillips 2200 and Magnifica S. I’ve also read that the Phillips machine gets dirty from inside quickly as it spills coffee powder everywhere. Did you notice anything like that?
@@thegreatskywalker i have been using philips full automatic machines for 10 years and all of them have the same grinder which is open from structure and that allows easy cleaning and maintenance but for the closed grinder of delonghi that maintenance isnt required so. But never had issues with powder going everywhere and must admit i havent cleaned as much as the guide said😅 both a good inwould say better judge on taste cost and build quality i guess
@@vkempen88 Thank you for the reply. Its very helpful 🙂
@@thegreatskywalker Have not noticed that no.. But I must say that it was much easier to take out the brewing unit for cleaning on the Delonghi vs Philips/Saeco. What also Tom explains with Philips using a lot less coffee - explains why its been so far from "real espresso machines" with portafilter and 18-22g doses for double espresso. I also think the built in grinder is far better with the Delonghi. The grinder is one of the most important aspects and it can make a world of difference.
@@thegreatskywalker Hello again :) I am at my parents and just cleaned the machine for them. It was super easy and there was only a little “coffee mess/leftovers” at the “shower curtain” section. My experience with Saeco/Philips is that it’s much more messier. Thought of your original question and wanted to do an update. On the Saeco/Philips grounds and coffee leftovers are “all over” the brewing unit inside. So I am very happy with my parents new machine :))
Hey Tom, I love your content! Could you do a video comparing Jura with Breville or Jura with De'Longhi in the future?
I know, I have to do Jura. Still waiting to find a deal on an E6 or E8 somewhere.
Thank you for the review, I'm trying to compare these to the Philips range, but looking at you videos it does seem that these are a better buy.
Very nice video and very much appreciated! You are getting closer and closer to a Jura machine :). I would be very interested to hear your opinion about Jura.
Thanks for the reviews, your inputs and reviews are really helpful
Hi Tom,
Wondering if you can advise on the difference between Dinamica vs Dinamica Plus.
your reviews are amazing. I really like the sound of Dinamica plus. Here in Canada, they have the regular Dinamica for a good price at Costco, and it is like 700 more everywhere else for the plus model (and you don't have the amazing Costco return policy). I see that the regular D is not made in Italy and wonder if there is an implication on the quality. Hard to find a clear comparison / review of the regular model.
This review was very helpful. Will definitely get the Dinamica Plus. Thank you!
Can you please do a review of the Jura Ena 4 and compare them in terms of quality and reliability vs Delonghi, Saeco, Gaggia, etc.?
Thank you so much. Huge fan here.
I really enjoy watching your videos
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you for these informative videos, one thing to add if I may; there is a difference between them in terms of water pressure, which is as you know is essential to make a good espresso
Thanks again
Very good review! Thanks for the work 😉
Hello. Great compare. Please tell me how the size of the grinded beans pack compares to the delonghi magnifica Plus? Im torn betweeen rivelia and magnifica plus.
This video really helped me to choose these models, thanks!
Hey Tom - great videos!
I am leaning towards the magnifica Start over the Evo -- would you conclude the Start has identical max dosage of 12g like you mention here for the Evo?
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.
This is absolutely fantastic review. Thank you very much
Glad it was helpful!
Great content as always :)
Other than for the dual hopper, how similar to any of these machines do you expect the new Rivelia to be?
Well, the Rivelia has a slightly smaller brew group, as the machine itself is smaller. Should still do similar doses though. I have the feeling the Rivelia will be similar to the Dinamica Plus.
Hey Tom, I've been really enjoying your new uploads, but more importantly, I've also learned a tremendous amount since watching your older videos. Do you think you'll be doing a full review of the Magnifica Start?
Hi there! I did a truncated review, since it's essentially the same as the Magnifica Evo: ua-cam.com/video/d5niedTxpY4/v-deo.html
Let me know what you think. Too short, or is it ok?
@@TomsCoffeeCorner I had watched the video, and I made this comment because I thought it was a bit short, but now that I've watched it back again, I think a fun video idea would be to do a comparison of both machines since they're so similar. Even if there're only subtle differences, I think it'd be a good one for people who are new to superautomatics. What do you think?
Either way, I'll always be tuning in, and thank you for all the great, entertaining and informative videos you make. Cheers from Canada!
Thank you very much Tom! Amazing explanatory video and helps me a lot about my decision
So cool! I am going to stick to my good old faithful ECP 😎👍🏽 great video Tom ☕️
@@FaithAndCoffeeBean Great decision! That’s where I’m at after going through 4 Delonghi Super Automatics! One can fix em and they’re affordable 😂😂
@@BJH-r5s what is ECP?
Now looking at 3 delonghi machines. These are here in Thailand rather affordable. They are:
- Magnifica Evo ECAM 290.81.TB for about 970 Eur
- Dinamica ECAM 350.55 for about 1070 Eur
- Dinamica Plus ECAM 370.95.T for about 1350 Eur
I like black coffee and espresso. My wife likes cappuccino.
I used to have the smallest Jura but it broke down and where I live service is difficult and it was not repairable. So time to change.
For the rest, I don't care about features. Would be nice to easily clean. And just great taste of coffee. Any suggestions
thanks, are milk frothers interchangeable
Thanks Tom great video
Great video! I have the Eletta Explore, and love it! What confuses me, though, is the "2x espresso" option. Because that one also makes two espressos from one bigger puck. So what is the difference between that option and Doppio+?
To me, the 2x Espresso and Doppio+ are the same thing.
Great video! Could you please also do a comparison video between Jura Z10 and Jura Giga 10?
Oh gosh, maybe someday. Those are expensive!
Thank you for the reviews.
Can you comment as to why for example the machines dispense at a 4:1 ratio for an espresso, whereas my understanding that the norm appears to be 2:1?
I actually have the Eletta Explore which dispenses a similar ratio that I enjoy, or am I perhaps missing out by not changing the grind and/or water quantity to achieve the golden 2:1?
7:44 - you must have a scale in your brain because those numbers are moving to 30g.. LOL..... By the way - based on your recommendation a year ago, I purchased the Delonghi Dinamica.. and it has been FANTASTIC! Thanks for all you do!!
What grind setting do you use?
Thanks for review🙌
talk about the Magnifica Plus...
magnifica sounds like it is catching its own gears while grinding the beans. we have a sage at work and grinding is so much quieter, even more so than the other 2. Eletta is more similar in sound
Learned a lot. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
My only hesitation on these machines is the steel grinder. Is there any version of these machines that has a ceramic grinder? Or do you feel a ceramic grinder, with its lower temperature operation, vs a steel grinder doesn't make a significant difference in typical day-to-day use? Thank you!
Please tell me how you got the evo expresso so good what grind setting?
Dinamica Plus is my machine and i love it
Hello, I have Magnifica Evo and to my surprise, it grinds exactly 10s on 3 beans and around 9s on 2 beans. Without to choose x2 option. Actually I like that. ...May be a different submodel?
Hi Tom! What do you think is better for cappuccino & lattes, the DeLonghi Magnifica Evo or the Nespresso Creatista?
Sorry, haven't tried the Creatista yet! But those capsules only have 5 grams of coffee, which is not enough for a proper cappuccino imho.

Love your reviews. I love the Dinamica and the eletta. There's a way to make to-go coffe on the Dinamica? And a way to make the milk come out cold from the dinamica? Cose if that's the case I may choose the Dinamica Plus.
The Dinamica Plus doesn't do cold milk. But for togo, sure you could just tilt and hold a travel tumber there if you want.
Thank you much for answering. Im still saving for one of them and Im not sure which one to get yet, so here I am revisiting your great reviews 😅 @@TomsCoffeeCorner
Do the Philips and Juras have different variations in puck volume as well?
Bought the eletta explore last month even though i could get the philips sarco xelsis suprema for about the same price (normally retail price is 600€ more) and the cheaper philips latte go series are build quality wise pretty bad compared to delonghi in my opinion to much plastic. Suprised that even the xelsis has same grinder as the cheapest philips full auto. I recommand you try the xelsis to though. But for me my old machine was a philips and i had to get use to the delonghi. I tested both machines when i got the eletta explore and you are right about the cup size. Philips uses less beans per cup/shot. Also the sensitity of the grinder level seem not making a lot of difference with my old philips but it does big time with elletta explore. I have it on 4 now if i go lower than that i get watery pucks and the coffee comes out very slow and inconsistent so for me the sweet spot seem to be 4. Thanks for your tests btw i learn a lot to make my favorite drinks
@@vkempen88 I would agree to all those sentiments. 👍🏻
Magnifica plus is great and half the price of others
mine small Krups does 7g, i press the button twice and thats it.
How warm does the milk get on all machines?
Excellent, thank you!
Great review and video, but I'm surprised that you forgot to mention that the EVO also has a double espresso feature that gives you the maximum strength possible of 14-15g, same as the Dinamica and the Eletta. You simply hit the X2 button and adjust the volume accordingly.
Are you sure about that? I thought the double espresso button only doubled the water with the same amount of coffee on Delonghi.
@thegreatskywalker Positive, I've weighed the dry pucks and timed the grind. What I got for the 3 strengths is about 7, 9 and 11 grams and 14-15 grams for the X2. The X2 pucks are visibly larger, and the grinder also runs for 10 seconds.
@@CechMtl-gm9yq Thank you for the reply. I hope @TomsCoffeeCorner makes a part 2 video on puck sizes with Magnifica S 13.5 grams, and Magnifica Evo with X2 button.
Sorry, I tried this yesterday, and it made no difference. I think on my machine that it just doubles the water. Grinding was still between 7-8 seconds.
Maybe it was the case on the firmware of your model, but no longer on mine.
@TomsCoffeeCorner That's too bad, thanks for checking though. I figured that there might be something wrong with your machine or a difference between the models, I have the NA version model # ECAM29084SB. With X2, it grinds for 10 seconds, and it produces an 80 ml shot, I stop it at 40. According to the manual, a Doppio+ produces 120ml at default.
Great video. In the UK the Dynamica plus doesn't have the app connectivity on new models. Not sure why they removed it, probably so people buy the more expansive models. Also my Dynamica plus was made in Romania, so looks like not all made in Italy.
Thanks for that feedback! Honestly the app was really bad anyway. I never use it.
@@MildManneredJon In each market, there are several ECAM variants, from the entry level ECAM 3xx.70, which is usually the cheapest, to the higher end ECAM 3xx.85 and ECAM 3xx.95. The entry level model have slightly different hardware ie a weaker 15 bar pump and no connectivity
Hey Tom-
Have you ever tried/reviewed the old Magnifica S? It has a "strength" dial prominent that has so many levels... wondering if its max puck size gets to the level of the Dinamica?
It doesn't. It grinds for max 8 seconds. I tried it recently at work. Cheers!
Great video!
My Magnifica Evo has a doppio option
You already convinced me to get a Sage/Breville instead ;-)
Do they make silky milk like when you use a steam wand ?
It depends on how good one is at milk steaming. I can steam silkier than these machines can provide, but that wasn't always the case. It's pretty darn good milk foam that these machines provide.
Could you do art latte with the texture of milk froth in Eletta or Dinamica plus? Thanks!
In the UK I bought the Dinamica Plus ECAM370.70.B it doesn't have connectivity or profiles. What it does do, when a coffee is made it leaks a small amount of water into the drip tray. Delonghi UK say a small amount of water in the drip tray as the coffee is made is normal.
I think the 370.70 also has a 15 bar pump vs 19 bar on the 370.95, so it probably cannot pump through 15g of finely ground coffee. Does it even have the doppio+ mode?
It's indeed normal for a bit of water to end up in the drip tray. Happens on most machines.
@AmokD3 Yes, it has the Dippio+ option.
@TomsCoffeeCorner Thank you. I forgot to say it makes very good coffee. I use grind setting 4, I'm going to give 3 a go.
I love my Dinamica Plus
I have a cheap Melitta coffee machine and it makes 16g pucks just like their top of the line model, the main difference is the amount of recipes.
Oh snap! Which model is that?
@@TomsCoffeeCorner Passione OT, I bought it for 400 Euro
Can you review the new Bosch super automatic machines? 800 series
What about the Magnifica Plus? Does it also grind more coffee? It has a Doppio+ selection, so it would seem so.
Coming from a manual with 20 gram ability, so my taste buds prefer stronger espresso pulls.
Each Delonghi machine uses the same size brew unit. But it seems like there is a programming difference between each model and their own variants as well. I've tested my EVO, and it definitely grinds 14 grams with the doppio (x2) option. I've weighed the pucks, and I timed the grind at 10 sec. The easiest way for you to check is to time the grind. 8 sec is about 11-12 grams and 10 sec is about 14-15 grams as a reference since they also use the same grinder.
i tried making it with starbucks creamer, was hoping for it to foam but i guess not
I originally bought the Evo, but it had something wrong with it so sent it back and bought the Dinamica Plus. I liked it, but really wanted the hot foam, so I sold it and bought the Eletta Explore. I've been very happy with it. I have the model that doesn't have wifi or the true brew over ice option. Saved a little money that way.
WiFi is gimmicky and wouldn’t connect on my machine so pointless anyway.
What do you mean with “ I really wanted the hot foam”? The dinamica plus doesn’t make hot foam? I’m hesitating between Delongui Eletta explorer and Siemens EQ900, for me it’s important to have cream latte not just airy foam. Thanks for your help!
@soniamartin2729 Exactly. The Dinamica only does cold foam, which is why I sold it and bought the Eletta Explore. It does both hot and cold so you get best of both worlds.
Thanks!
@@neekieful Thank you for your support, Monique!
Is the temp the same....on all three????you say Dinamica Plus...but it isn't?........?it's not the plus, but the regular one? I'm I seeing that right?

And do you think there is no maintainance on the Breville ? 🤣🤣
Hi, is it possible to adjust coffee weight and extraction time for an expresso on the Eletta explore? Also, can you adjust milk temperature? Or you just can modify what the display shows you? Thanks
Sure, you can adjust the amount of coffee ground, and yield in the cup. But you cannot change the milk temp. Cheers!

Thanks.
Sorry, I haven't tried the Magnifica Plus yet.
So none of these machines can work with ground coffee right?
@@sherrysong5363 They all can in fact. I should probably cover that in the videos… You just open up the flap, and dump the coffee in. But you have to be careful about how much you put in.
Hi, would u rather take magnifica evo or dinamica latte (not plus)?
I watched all your videos and there isnt this kind of comparing.. For example, dinamica plus is using up to 15g of coffe, and evo can go up to 10g, because prices are similar between evo and dinamica latte, i am curious can dinamica latte extract 15g as well cause thats something that is deal breaker for me..
