DeLonghi ESAM3300 Magnifica Super-Automatic Espresso/Coffee Machine
I am EAM3200, which is a version of the previous model. Differences are minor, but please note the latest. These machines are best in class price and performance to produce good coffee and retained so that other manufacturers are not models. DeLonghi coffee is as good as the Jura, and even some models, such as textbooks and Expobar Rancillo. It is very close to what you find in Italy – not quite, but the price is worth it. Great crema, hot temperature, rich flavor. And the best part is that you can remove the brew mechanism and clean – very important. This will ensure the smooth functioning and operational for many years.
In order for this machine is a big job, you need to do a little maintenance on a weekly basis and use the right beans.
1 Use only non-greasy, 100% Arabica. If you use oily beans that often clog and to attract a rancid flavor. It also reduces the machine. I use Illy espresso, but (I myself am Illy dark roast – it’s more the taste of beer when the broader “Americano cup).
2 Clean the brew mechanism once a week. Simply unplug and carry it with hot water.
3 Use spring water instead of tap water. This is nothing strange taste of coffee used. There may be minerals, but…
4 De-calcify the machine when he asked – do not wait.
;
, one, and preferably a manual control of the amount of coffee, strength, etc. You do not lose anything without a digital control – other than the machine can not be automatically and ready to go, when you wake up. As with other models, the ability to drink milk of a button – How many times do you really want a cappuccino? If it is every day, so you get 3500 if you’re like me and have a real coffee in the morning to get this model. milk container can sit in the fridge for so long. If you intend to use the cappuccino at dinner, and then commit heresy Italy – cappuccino is served only in the morning.
CONS 1 cup heater does not work very well, but double-walled cups and temperature of the product is not a problem.
2 You can not start automatically after a time. But it only takes a few minutes later, even the temperature.
3, it is noisy.
My espresso – the quantity of coffee in 1910 valid for 3:00 hours, the Cup run. Super double espresso cup espresso. Perhaps I will have those two on Saturday.
“My wife Americano parameters – the amount of coffee three hours of 3:00 valid or Dual Cup happen. rich cup of coffee in a normal cup.

[This notice applies to magnifica 3200 is the same as in 3300 with minor cosmetic differences. ]
I bought this machine in 2006, when nearly endless trawl through the Internet, reading reviews owners – we are talking a full espresso search here!
coffee quality is good. Doubts that I would like to use it as the buttons are not user mark, which means that several people in the house using the machine, it is impossible to choose the parameters previously selected individual. In addition, before the machine performs a self switch is set for about three hours. I could not find the power consumption in standby mode, user manual, but I think it is important because it maintains the boiler / preheater cup hot during this time. Not that the preheat is no good – I warm up my cup first gets wet and then put them in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Seriously, was the engineer for three years and now it broke down four times – the first time in six weeks, the second time after about 18 months, the third time, after about 30 months, and as recently as last week . The first two times, the machine is repaired on warranty, no quibbles. I think the problem is that the environment, these machines do not work is probably the most serious is in: high-pressure boiling water, crushing and transport of coffee beans to the machine. Perhaps the quality of construction is cheaper so they can not?
Before that moment, nearing picked up and repaired I decided to begin its review the quality of construction (I’m an engineer). De Longhi has been used in a thin plastic whenever possible. Transfer of anti-coffee is not well insulated from other machine – coffee powder as a result had all the power moves behind the machine (I think because the machine failed eventually).
Others here have commented on the ability to brew coffee maker. I agree, it makes good coffee. It is unfortunate that, at least for me, he has betrayed the poor technique.

I wish I could give it a 4 5. As others have said, it is a bit noisy side. We have gone casting machine Bunn (the best coffee, clearly) that when it is swept away by a host Germany. It was worth every penny. Speaking less than a 20% discount coupon Bed Bath & Beyond has a ticket, low prices and very good return policy.
Uses Starbucks and beans, pears, and will continue to try other likely. Cleaning is easy, the only real gripes are the reservoir of water – apparently designed for coffee-sipping Europeans in mind, we Americans drink coffee. However, we do not use because we are connected to the Bunn magnifica.
Likes:
excellent coffee! Great crema, better than coffee
easy to adjust the size and strength of a cup of coffee
FAST warmup
Easy to clean
Everything works perfectly
Dislikes:
a little noisy.
No automatic timer (not a big problem, because it heats up quickly)
Hot Cup of little use, and no way to stop

In addition, after a break of four weeks, the espresso maker is great, we love it. Easy to use, makes good coffee and espresso. Maybe we had bad luck, but the four-week use of a single button brewing, broke the power button does not work more. Machine was dead. It seems that the electronics behind the buttons is not very strong. I sent a email to customer service, DeLonghi, but never received an answer.
Another downside: the machine asks for scaling two-week intervals. It gets a little expensive, because the descaler is recommended scaling time is about 6 dollars. I returned the machine on Amazon. They are always great return. So fast, so easy. They are my absolute favorite shop on-line ordering.

It is a good solid reliable machine makes good coffee. I like the analog gauges: the simplicity and elegance is easy to anyone to understand how it is used for a few minutes.
Strengths:
< , br /> 1 The simplicity of design
2 Good espresso
3 Easy to clean
4 automatic scaling of the symbol and simple scalers (includes descaler Durgol)
Cons:
1 Noisy mill
2 Usage is apparently written by non-native speaker of English, for example, “Calc is an hour late and the machine is ready to redo the cafe ‘and as such, some instructions take some time to understand.
3 Power on / off cycles of irrigation system causes a brownish fluid drip tray catch – while keeping a bit of milk cappuccino remedy under the pot
4 Grounds bucket is met within an irregular when the light goes off before it got crowded (required frequent emptying)
5 I could not change the setting the hardness of water (not that big of a deal, but it may extend the interval required scaling)
Overall, a good super-automatic price (I got it from Bed Bath and Beyond for the 639 dollars using the 20% coupon, but pay taxes)
