I have the DeLonghi Dinamica Plus Tips I've learned (Mostly from Mr. JAMES HOFFMAN, thank you!) and tested to acquire the best espresso (so far): 1. Only dry beans (oily beans clog the espresso machine) 2. No dark roasted beans (they are burnt; usually to hide imperfections) 3. The best taste occurs between 4-14 days from the time they are roasted (this is "resting the coffee" because the beans have to off-gas CO2) 4. To avoid watery espresso, dial a low grind/fine size (1,2,3,4) and fresh beans (before 1 month of roast date), this produces a thicker espresso 5. Lowest grind setting for DeLonghi Dinamica Plus machine is at a "3" (because any lower/finer chokes the machine) Thus, my optimal espresso Latte configuration is: -Five beans 🫘 (strongest intensity), - small ☕️ or medium size ☕️☕️ cup, -with dry medium-roasted beans, that were -roasted about 1-2 weeks ago -Vanilla Syrup (2 pumps or 1 table spoon for every small shot of espresso) -Half & Half Cream *pour cream until espresso resembles golden camphor burl wood
When choosimg a drink form thr menu,how do u know which drink your choosing? I keep getting the wrong one. Is it the one at the top of the list that you get ? Does that make sense?! Lol
Some beans come flavored which are usually coated with a flavor compound like syrup. The coating on those beans can damage the grinding mechanism on the machine.
I regret buying this machine. It wastes so much water before and after brewing the coffee, it's a waste! For example, 1.5 glasses of water in 5 glasses of coffee is wasted.
@@jamespriddy8275 It’s the main feature of the machine! It’s very little extra maintenance, just a wash sometimes. The last shot is of a coffee WITH MILK!!! Where’d the milk come from? Not from the demo that’s for sure. Worst ‘overview’ I’ve seen!
I will say this was the most thorough review. I do not have this exact one, but I liked how you went through everything.
We don’t have the coffee over ice feature / button here in the UK, probably too cold !. Great overview, even two years later, many thanks
Thank you, I've just ordered mine online 🌞🌞

Best overview yet, thankyou
Going great! Love it! Use it EVERYDAY!
You had me at “flat white” 😊. My birthday is coming up soon, I guess I know what to get myself. Thanks for the review!
Got mine 3 days ago and love it.
I just bought one of these and was wondering how your experience has been with yours? Does the milk heat up to a good temperature?
Best review for the Dinamica so far ! The others are ... well, tend to be professional, but this review is a humble one, I liked it :)
Ty that was very informative!
Great review thanks, still going fine with this machine?

It’s the 1 in the middle between the two lines :)
Looks delicious!
Does it make everyday American coffee. Lots of espresso drinks but what about plain American coffee like you get at Dunkin’ Donuts or McDonald’s?
Yes
Who spends a grand on a coffee machine to make decaf?
Coating on the beans? Not sure what that means.

How do you like it after all this time?
Still LOVE it!
good review

They should all need this for flushing, regardless of machine
The main advantage of this machine is that it does the milk for you! Massive feature! You failed to demonstrate the main feature! Unbelievable! 🤦♂️
We didn’t want that feature. The fridge is always full and it’s just added maintenance.
