Might seem like a stupid question to ask when comparing coffee machines but.....which one makes the best coffee??? What pressure steam do they all put through the coffee?
Hello, very good video, a consultation between the delonghi icona and delonghi scultura, which is better?
I just bought an ec702 that had a bad boiler valve. I found a site that has every part for this machine, and at cheap prices too. Shipping times are a little long, but that is just a minor inconvenience to me. Even if the parts on this machine have a shorter lifespan, replacement cost will be minimal, and all it will take is a little time and willingness to break open the case.
This may not be the best machine out there, but it will serve a purpose, and I anticipate I will be quite satisfied with it.
This is an upgrade from a Krups machine I had for many years. When this one finally gives up, I would like to upgrade another step to a Ranchilio. ;-)
I considered DeLonghi when I was shopping for my current espresso machine. I wasn't impressed with the build quality on the cheaper ones (stocked at a local retailer) and couldn't find enough info on the more expensive ones to convince me to buy -- so I bought a Via Venezia. As I approach the first anniversary of that purchase, I am thankful to have found the SCG channel and web store to help me make better decisions in the future. (Smart Grinder etc.)
We're going to do some testing because I haven't done a lot of side by side, just used them all at different times and didn't notice any real benefit other than different / more expensive case materials as you went up in price. But we are going to experiment with them to see if there are any practical differences in their performance.
Mine DeLonghi is about 7years old, I got it from a friend, who used it alot and I use it daily aswell :)
It's similar to the second one, though alot larger and a steamer looking alot like the bigger models.
It's a decent buy I guess for the money and when you take good care of it, it's lifetime is decent aswell .
It's really a design / look decision. In all of our side by side testing, they perform the same so the best choice for you is which one you think looks the best, etc. :) - Kat
We stock a few DeLonghi parts but not a full assortment like our comprehensive selection of Saeco, Rocket Espresso and Rancilio parts. ~ sam
I just ordered the Delonghi Eco310 and I hope that I will be satisfied with the coffee! I have to admit that you helped me very much, with the tutorials, the reviews and this comparing!! Thank you sooo much!! :):):)
Our ec200 (identical to bar32) last a dozen of years, an eco311 is coming soon now, I hope it will replace the old Delonghi very well.
What do you think about the quality of the espresso between those machines kat?
is it still "you get what you pay for" or maybe there's not so much different espresso quality between those small machine? :D
i'm just curious is it the higher price only for the better model(with the same espresso quality)?
actually i have the ec 155 and in my country, Indonesia, it's sold little bit expensive, around 1.9 million Rupias or around 200$ in US Dollar :(
thanks a lot for this great comparison video :)
Glad we were of help! :) - Kat
Yes - thank you for sharing your experiences with this! :) - Kat
I'm getting an Icona Vintage Matt black for Xmas. Cannot wait. Currently have a Lavazza A Modo Mio capsule machine buy gasping to get back to a proper one :D
Oh my gosh I was seriously looking for this exact info. Thank you SO much !!!!!
You are correct! It's really a design decision, IMHO - Kat
They all have panarellos, so it's kind of difficult to get the 'wet paint' consistency you need for latte art. But some have been known to be successful! :) - Kat
The EC155 is the same overall with the Bar14 (EC140). The only difference is the front panel, some shape difference, drip tray, lid/cover and the tamper/froth wand are in switched positions. Mostly aesthetics. I wonder why Delonghi doesn't offer both like elsewhere outside the US.
Between the EC155 and the EC270, which one would you think is a better buy?
Is there any performance difference?
i own the ec330 looks like a cross of the 702 and 310bk and as you know i made my portafilter un pressurized by cutting off the little spring loaded plunger and now it pulls exponentially better shots. (still cowpie's due to no 3 way valve) the pumps arnt strong enough to push a proper espresso grind through the pressurized filter so you have to take it really coarse. so not to clog it up.
my question would be on the internal mechanism.. does all of them had similar internal build quality or it is different? if it had exactly the same build quality, i wont spend another dollar for the looks of it
I don't think it's any different than their other small single boiler espresso machines ... I believe they have the same manufacturing story for all of their non-superauto espresso machines, so they all would have similar reliability / QA practices. I would purchase any of these with the expectation of a couple of years and then, if you get more, good on you :) - Kat
Thanks for this channel! I got an eco310 for Christmas (because it came in light blue and matches the kettle) and for a complete novice it has been great.
I looked at your steaming tips and hadn't even heard of a panarello before today (!) but wondered if you have any tips for using one. Will it make a difference to the milk texture if I vary the amount of steam coming through, or does it just vary the heating time and noise?
Panarellos will incorporate both steam and air to produce foam; you can play with the amount of air it infuses to produce different styles of foam, while the steam will contribute to the overall temperature. - Kat
great clip to sum it up. was wondering if its true the kmix has a poor quality assurance? seen a lot of reviews responding how it breaks down within a year.
What will you recommend? ECO310 or Kenwood kMix es021? I like the look of kenwood, but ECO310 seems to be better based on the reviews.
They both perform similarly as far as the end result is concerned. For these small single boilers from DeLonghi, people seem to be happiest when the cost and performance is balanced properly; some of them cost more but give you the same results because they have better casing materials, etc. You need to consider how important that is to you … the ultimate cup of coffee you create on any of the machines will be very, very similar. - Kat
Cool! I was just answering your questions that's all :) - Kat
Newly brought an ECO V311 expesso machine however the box comes only with a pod and the ground coffee filters are not included, anyone can tell me if this is normal?
No -- it's really a design decision; they perform very similarly. - Kat
im sure you have a lot of those portafilters laying around i'd like to hear your thoughts on the depressurzeing mod. i know you wont do it on video due to legal stuff. but say a comment or maybe in the discription on your side by side video?
Cool!!! - Kat
That's kind of their story in general. - Kat
We only sell one Krups machine - Kat
This may be a stupid question, but can you get hot water from it? Like for tea or americanos?
Hi Coleen Tye! Generally the panarello/steam wand can double as a hot water spout when you are not frothing milk. Is there a specific machine you would like me to check? - Sarah
I'm really interested in the DeLonghi ECO310.W, it's counterpart is the BK in the video. I just wanted to make absolutely sure before I decided on something. Thank you!
Coleen Tye It looks like there is a hot water function for the ECO310: www.seattlecoffeegear.com/assets/user-manuals/delonghi/delonghi-eco310bk-user-manual.pdf --- page 10 explains how to operate the hot water function. I hope this helps! :-) - Sarah
Thank you!!
By the way, I like you guys a lot better than the other coffee experts on the web. You're more genuine, and I feel like you're trying to help me, not just take my money. Thanks for being just a great resource!
Can u do the same for krups?
Small boilers, yes - Kat
You say parts are not available ? Parts for most if these are easily available Bev
Do it can steam milk for latte art???
same boiler?
Okay, Thanks! :)
"that's hard on the wrist" yup... that's the FIRST thing i noticed when i tried to dump the 702. i'm in my 30's and found it difficult. I was whacking my finger on the trash can... it just doesn't make sense. oh well...
how would you compare the ecp3630 to the ones in the video?
or the dedica
Cool! :D - Kat
Kat, are you certain these machines are all single boilers? I would imagine the lower end ones heat on thermoblocks?
Cool! That's an awesome setup :D - Kat
All boilers, no thermoblocs among them?
Because this delonghi eco310 would satisfy me ;P
It is rather cute! :) - Kat
They are all small boilers - Kat
Also gonna buy it :P
:D
