It’s not a great idea to leave the steamer running unattended. You get better results purging it first to eliminate any water buildup and then steaming at an angle. Also, delonghi says to not exceed one minute steaming. The water in the tank will dissipate and the boiler can overheat.

Loved it thanks.

I was recently gifted the ECP 35.31 - My first ever espresso maker! I was searching for 'how to' videos but nothing quite hit the mark until I came across your video. I know it's for the ECP 3240 BUT I think that it is pretty similar to the ECP35.31 in functionality. Thanks -just what I needed - A simple no technical jargon approach! :)

I suppose your espresso was cold when you finally put it in your to go cup.

The reason why your milk gets too foamy is because of how much air you’re letting into it when steaming…The more air you let in, the foamier it gets. If you want it to be more like a Latte or Mocha, don’t air your milk for more than a few seconds and try to create a little tornado by holding your pitcher sideways (we call it “microfoam”), otherwise you’ll end up with a cappuccino, which is alright, but if you’re aiming for a latte or a mocha, you basically want your milk to get this silky texture similar to fresh paint. I’m a barista and yes, our machines are extremely fancy and they’re meant for commercial use. When it comes to latte we only air the milk for 1-2 seconds for 8oz and 12oz, and 3-4 seconds for 16oz and 20oz (assuming we’re using regular milk), mainly because of how powerful our steam wands are, but for personal use machines it’s a whole different story. I personally don’t have a espresso machine at home, but I’m planning to get one soon (hence why I’m watching this video haha). I was actually looking for a Delonghi cos I’ve heard plenty of good things about them. Pro tip: If you want your steam wand to be way easier to handle and get better results, you might wanna take off that little tube thing that covers the wand. It isn’t really useful and it won’t let you have proper control of the way you air the milk

What type of espresso beans do you use? I have the same machine but can’t find the right beans that are strong enough.

I love how straightforward this is! Thanks!

Does milk get burnt if frothing that long.

Look up the "pro" method of use for this machine. It involves making a couple of inexpensive easy modifications to the machine, as well as slightly changing the method used. It performs much better using these techniques. Give it a try!

Lol I can tell you’re a practical coffee drinker. Some things to point out: Gotta tap the porta filter to disperse the grinds evenly, then tamp it once and get it flush and even. Looks like you overfilled it here. The milk frothing - gotta purge the liquid out first- that’s why you’re getting huge bubbles. wand should be a little deeper too so it doesn’t stretch too intensely. Once the foaming is maximized, then submerge the wand so it stops stretching and let it run until it’s 65C. You are scorching the milk for sure here, which turns it into a cheesy admixture. This machine tends to pull really fast. A finer grind or smaller dose might help you get a fuller extraction.

Thanks for your sharing. I too am beginning to make home brew espresso. I want to move on to bottomless portafilter brewing but not sure if the ECP 3420 can handle it.

The video was enjoyable. You didn't make it complicated. Thank you.

But how much water do you use for a shot?

This guy could sell anything with that hip voice.

Really well done! Your step-by-step instructions were very easy to follow. Thank you!

On this specific model ( I just got mine yesterday) when placing the filter holder into the boiler outlet, how far do you have to turn it and is the handle supposed to be twisted all the way until it’s straight ? Because if I do that it gets harder to turn it in place and I’m afraid I’ll break it

Nice machine also very cheap for a Delongi, but that so not the way to steam milk you are supossed to use your hand to first feel the temperature, this cannot go up 65 degrees celcius, or the molecular structure of the milk changes altering its flavour and texture, second you have to put it in a 15 or 20 degree angle to form a little swirl that makes the milk to circulate, the point is making the milk silky and shinny and a bit thicker, but you dont want to create foam or bubbles, thats the barista way to do it, but at the end its your coffee.

A tutorial?????? 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 You basically made EVERY possible mistake in espresso making there's is in this video...

Just got this machine as a gift and had no idea how to use it. This was great!

Just got this machine! This video was exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks so much

Got 1 for Christmas 2021, followed written instructions and videos. Made noises and never made expresso! Oh yeah, the ONLY way to get the cup holder/handle fit was to have very few grounds in it...in the process of returning that lemon.

Love the review btw

I thought you are supposed to put the milk first then the shot espresso. 🤔

many thanks, helped me out!

I bought this same machine! I love it so much and decided to start a RUclips channel making very nice drinks with it! You did a great review! My videos are coming soon!

Ive seen a few videos on this machine and NO ONE is commenting on how much noise it makes! I just purchased this product and will be taking it back! No espresso machine should make so much noise I thought it was defective!

What kind of grounds did you use? 😋

What a great video. Very clear explanation. And now I am ready to buy that model. Thank you for the useful tips!

Love your video. Thank you for being so detailed and showing everything you use as well as sharing where your got it. You made it seem easy. I want to try this drink now.

Thank you so much for this video!!! Really helpful, and super easy to understand.

Como puedo verlo en español

When you use the steamer on the right for too long, the steam runs out though. You’d just make your milk colder if you put it there for too long.

Where can I buy ese pods for same machine and which filter and what way do I put in pod. Thanks. Must have bought wrong coffee pods and can’t do it

So after you draw the espresso into the clear cup, are you turning the dial to "off" before steaming the milk? Thanks.

Which filter is for the pods, no numbers on them. Where can I purchase pods for this machine. Thanks. Anne

Thank you so much fo the tutorial. I am new to making coffee drinks at home and this was a huge help

Whole milk or can I use 2% or soy?

Yay I just ordered this espresso machine and loved watching your video! Thanks for the tips!

Thanks, Kevin!

You actually let the some steam out first before frothing the milk to let the inside of the wand clean out and remove excess water. And that is too much froth. Thats why you hold it and tilt them.

That’s physics for ya! I’m buying lol

Well done.

So if I wanted to prepare two shots in two separate glasses at the same time, does that mean I need three glasses? So that I can use the third as a base for the frother ? And it still goes to the dishwasher afterwards? 😂😂 jk very informative video

I just bought mine and started using it today. I noticed that when putting the portafilter into the slot it is very tight and take a lot of force to align it straight. Does it loosen up over time?

I think you are supposed to purge the steamer wand to get the water out before frothing, so it is not watery. Those flavour syrups, though delicious, they pack a lot of calories 80 or more per serving.

Good video, thanks for the tips... little cup under the milk pitcher and the spoon on top of the pitcher so that the foam does not come out 👍

Thanks!💕🌻

Now, you don’t have to wait in line or drop by your favorite coffee shop to get your morning pick me up drink. So if you are short in time to do the hassle of going to the coffee shop, you should definitely get yourself a super automatic coffee machine. Having an espresso machine at home, you don’t also have to spend money each time you need your espresso. If you would do the math, you can save so much every year. And less the time, you can have your coffee after only a few minutes. www.darlocoffee.com/best-super-automatic-espresso-machine/ #espressomachine #superautomatic #coffeemachine

Have you tried the Starbucks version white chocolate? Also in comparison, how does this compare to Starbucks peppermint white chocolate mocha?

What is the boiler made of; aluminium or stainless steel?
