De'Longhi ETAM 29.660.SB Autentica Cappuccino koffiemachine met LatteCrema melksysteem, cappuccino/espresso, digitaal display met duidelijke tekst, 2-kops functie, 1450W, 1.4L, zilver

Prepara ottimi cappuccini cremosi e buon caffè. tante regolazioni per personalizzarla. Rispetto ai modelli pregressi è un po' troppo profonda, il serbatoio dell'acqua laterale è più pratico, facilmente riempibile e accorcerebbe la profondità.

Les différents réglages de la machine permettent de l'adapter a vos besoisn et envies. Le démarrage automatique le matin est trés pratique. On peux metre du café moulu au lieu de graisn de café mais je n'ai pas encore essayé.Le capuccino ets trés facile a faire et le nettoyage pas compliqué.Ca consomme plus de café qu'une machine a dosette mais le café est 3 fois moins cher. Le seul problème que j'ai pas encore réussi a régler c'est le nattoyage automatique qui consomme trop d'eau.

This is my second De'Longhi bean to cup coffee machine.Dad who is 80 managed to break the coffee grinder on the old one by fiddling with the adjustment dial in the hopper. It still works with ground coffee, but be advised only to adjust the grinder one notch at a time, and only when the grinder is in operation.The Autentica comes with the same health warning.That said my new Autentica arrived just before christmas and I am super delighted with it and fast on my way to becoming a coffee geek; I can now converse in coffee and can tell you what the difference between a cappuccino a lattè and a flat white, a ristretto, doppio and an espresso, even if I'm still not sure how to spell them properly.Bottom line is they all taste superb, because you can set the strength of coffee, the froth of the milk, and the size of the cup, to suit yourself.There are four temperature settings too, as well as a cup warming tray on top to take the chill off your cups, but the tray does take 5-10minutes to warm up fully.If you want your own particular style in your favourite cup, you can set it to dispense that at the touch of a button.You can even adjust how long the machine will remain on standby before switching itself off, and another feature to set it to come on, so that eg it is warmed up ready for breakfast in the morning.The milk jug can be swopped out, it fits neatly in the fridge door tray, for a hot water/steam nozzle for making tea or cuppasoup, but I'm drinking so much coffee right now I haven't gotten round to trying that option.One unexpected pleasure was also buying the insulated glasses; they come in 3 sizes ie espresso, cappuccino and latte or very short standard and very long.You can see the alternate layers of milk , coffee and foam in the glass, and no matter how hot the coffee the glass is pleasantly warm in your hands.Well it impressed me!*postscript: had it now for a month and I am getting the jitters from the amount of coffee I'm now drinking. Loving my coffee.The water jug could do with being bigger but quick and easy to refill almost filled to the brim.The steam/hot water nozzle could be longer, for making up a jug of hot milk, if you want to get creative/artistic pouring your cappuccinos.Yup, that's how bad I've got the habbit now. 😉

It's good in terms of speed, however, I'm not sure if the taste is perfect compared to other delonghi I have, I feel it can be better.

Fully automatic, very little cleaning to be done and it cleans the milk frothing part very well.Coffee is great (Get good beans). Lots of settings to make sure you get the amount and strength that you want.The milk frother is really awesome and does a better job than any cafe barista.Due to the WFH, etc. Between my wife and I we average 4 cups a day or almost $20 of starbucks. Machine pays for itself pretty quickly.I do wish the water tank held more water though but that is a minor pain, not critical.
