Introducing the new Dinamica Plus ECAM37095T - an intelligent and programmable fully automatic coffee machine. The Dinamica Plus simplifies the process of making espresso, long coffee, cappuccinos, lattes, and much more.
New to the North American release is a speciality iced coffee function, along with user presets to make this machine easy to use in a family household.
Hi Liam, I'm Dennis Daniels from Cleveland, Ohio! Thanks for sharing your video about the delonghi dinamica plus!
Great review! Thank you for going over the profiles! DeLonghi documentation is sparse to say the least. I tried for two days to connect the app. iPhone and iPad said nope. Also kinda weird is having to log in EVERYTIME you want to use the app. In the end, I just deleted the app, and set up profiles manually. I’d give the machine 5 stars, app 0 stars. Again, thank you for the review!
Thanks for your anecdote, Jimmy!
Hi Liam, Great Review! Thanks for going over the profile!
I just bought this machine!!
James Hoffman praised this machine. I might buy it
For automatic espresso machines, it's a great bang-for-buck.
How do you review a product without making a coffee!!! How noisy is the machine, how long it takes to make a beverage, etc
Just doing a summary/overview and trying to keep it short-and-sweet. But I appreciate the feedback
Awesome! I’m in search of new espresso machine. Thanks for this review!
I am worried about the material is everything plastic inside? Chemicals not only BPA but the other harsh cancer causing chemicals that are usually leaked out into your milk and into your drink when heated when the plastic is heated is the milk double walled meaning glass? I am concerned about toxicity. Can you answer all of my questions please
I saw on the screen in another post Pot of coffee options? this does a full pot of regular coffee? ☕ Thanks :)
Yup! However it's just a mode released on the North American version which brews shot after shot to fill up a larger volume. Nice feature, I guess, but probably won't get used much in practical application
Hello, have you tested non dairy milk in the machine like oat, soy, almond or the Barista milk by Calafia? How well does it create foam? Thank you.
Depends on the brand! 'Barista oat milk' like calafia will do fine. Soy is also pretty good. Almond or some raw milks... not so much
Very beatifull
If you don’t use all the milk in a day would you have to empty it? I mean is the milk ok to leave it there for a day or two? Obviously is not in fridge…
The carafe keeps the milk cold for a couple hours an hour or two on the counter. As a general rule of thumb, you always want to keep it in the fridge as much as possible. The good news is that the whole frothing system is designed to be easily removed and stored in the fridge while you're not using it. Hope this helps :)
Yes if its kept in the fridge most of the time you only need to wash the carafe every 2-3 days.
How would you compare this machine to the Phillips 5400?
Agreed
Philips 5400 is a great machine and they go spec-and-spec. It's usually cheaper and be a really good value. My opinion would go to the Dinamica plus if you have a few hundred more to spare - better durability and can brew with a finer grind size which is more important for cappuccinos and other milk based beverages.
Thx
Is it possible to make an americano?
yes it is
I tried reaching you folks by phone,
How does the denamica compare to the Eletta Cappucino Top, are they equal or does the cappucino top
have any advantages over the Dinamica Plus?
The Eletta Cappuccino Top is my personal favourite between the two. The Eletta seems to be capable of reaching a finer grind size for stronger espresso shots. This is especially useful for milk-based drinks or straight espresso. The Eletta Cappuccino Top also has two frothing systems, manual and automatic, for optionally hotter milk with a better micro-foam texture. The wand is also useful for powder based milk beverages like hot chocolates and match lattes. Additionally, the Eletta top also has a dedicated heating element for cup warming.
All the Dinamica machines have better tasting long coffee and also have a well executed unique iced coffee function. The new Dinamica Plus is also undoubtably better user experience - it has better programability for user presets and advanced milk drink customization.
Careful note though - my note is regarding the Eletta 'Top' model, not the standard Eletta or the 'evo'.
In the end it's up to personal preference and where your priorities are. :)
Thanks for the video. Whats the main differences between this model and the magnifica evo? I can't find much online.
The brewing system is supposed to be very similar - so likely not much a difference in terms of quality of coffee. The Dinamica Plus has a lot more features, however. The Dinamica Plus has plenty of user presets and clever ability to finely adjust coffee strength and volumes, so I'd recommend it if you are living as a family and have people with different drink preferences. If you're living alone as a single person, the Evo will likely work just fine.
i noticed the doppio on the EVO does not grind twice. does the PLUS offer true double shot?
Hi! Where did you buy this? I checked their website but says “Not Sold on Website.” Thank you!
Hi EC! The machine is coming to market in the next few weeks - only a few machines were shipped to North America initially, which is why it isn't listed with most retailers. I would recommend subscribing to our 'Back In Stock' notification here on the HCS website to be notified as soon as it's available: www.homecoffeesolutions.com/products/delonghi-dinamica-plus-super-automatic-espresso-cappuccino-machine-ecam37095t-titanium?_pos=1&_sid=a903adb4c&_ss=r
Hope this helps! :)
How hot is the milk i have read it comes out only luke warm
Thanks for the question, Neil. Milk temperature is the trade-off you will get for having a fully automated milk system. Automated frothers only come into momentary contact with the steam, so the milk temperature is intrinsically lower than if you were steaming with a wand - however it's absolutely not luke warm. That's an exaggeration some people make about automatic systems, however it is noticeable - especially if you are not adding hot coffee to it and only having the milk by itself.
If you're getting a fully automatic system, I would consider warming the cups prior to use. The biggest temperature drop happens when the milk/coffee hits the glass.
Hope this helps!

I've found that insulated twin wall cups make a huge difference to the temperature of the coffee.
Hello, does the machine has over ice option for iced coffee?
Yes, but only in the North American version (United States / Canada)
Does it use pressurized filter or non pressurized one?
All super automatic and one button machines use some form of pressurization in the brew-group to improve shot consistency.
is this better than the xelsis from saeco?
The Xelsis is a bit of an older machine with great build quality - stainless steel casing and a ceramic grinder. The Dinamica excels in features in programability. I also think the espresso extraction in the Dinamica is better, to my personal taste.
Liam
It's ok. Makes a good machiatto, decent espresso. All the other drinks are weak and mostly taste the same. Flat white is absolutely terrible... Warm milk. Drinks aren't very hot, and portions are European size (small). Probably returning mine and trying the Jura Z10
Milk temperature issues tend to happen with any of the automatic frothing systems, since they steam only comes into momentary contact with the milk. For automatic, Jura/DeLonghi/Philips/Gaggia etc, I'd recommend preheating glasses and using double-walled insulation. That usually helps a lot.
For coffee strength - the grind size actually has the biggest effect on beverage strength, not the strength adjustment in the menu system. That will only control the dosage.
Portions are also programmable. However note they are set to ratios - 2/3 coffee/milk for a cappuccino. 1/3 coffee milk for a latte. A lot of coffee shops in North America don't follow the standards so it may seem out of the norm.
I’d think the phone app is a completely pointless as it dose a pre clean every time you turn it on so that would end up in your cup. Or dose this one not do that.
Rinse cycles are pretty normal for automatic machines. They need to purge the cold water from the systems on-boot. The app is not great though
Don’t seem to have true brew over ice on the Dinamica plus!
1:40
True Brew Over Ice is available on the new Dinamica Plus - you can take a look at the function at 1:36 , but note this is only available on the new North American version (United States / Canada). Most articles you may read on the internet may be talking about the European version, which does not include this feature
@@HomeCoffeeSolutions That is exactly why then! . I have been looking for it all day and just found out it’s not in the UK machine :( Kinda sad. still good though
how hot is the milk foam. I'm finding most automatic machines it makes a very cold cappacino as it does not heat the milk. Want a hot chocolate forget about it if it comes out very luke warm
Ah! Good question. Milk temperature is the trade-off you will get for having a fully automated milk system. Automated frothers only come into momentary contact with the steam, so the milk temperature is intrinsically lower than if you were steaming with a wand. It's absolutely not luke warm. That's an exaggeration some people make about automatic systems, however it is noticeable - especially if you are not adding hot coffee to it and only having the milk by itself.

@@HomeCoffeeSolutions would increasing the water temperature of the drink to high help to counteract this concern?
Can this machine make one touch americanos?
No it cannot, unfortunately. That's one feature high in demand in the North American market that few manufacturers have delivered on, mostly since these machines are designed in Europe where fewer people drink them. For that, I would examine Gaggia's fully auto lineup, otherwise use the hot water faucet after each brew.
How does it compare to the Eletta top
Very good question. The Eletta Cappuccino Top is my personal favourite between the two. The Eletta seems to be capable of reaching a finer grind size for stronger espresso shots. This is especially useful for milk-based drinks or straight espresso. The Eletta Cappuccino Top also has two frothing systems, manual and automatic, for optionally hotter milk with a better micro-foam texture.

La spaziale is good coffee machine
Cost 6000 euro
where do you put the suger in it?
You'd have stir some in after making the beverage. Sugar in the brewing mechanisms is a big no no for coffee machines.
Liam
I bought this machine and it makes awful coffee, presets on the machine are jokes, returning to the shop.
why awful? l am planning to buy since:(
@@ED-sg2zg The factory presets are very weak, you will need to do a lot of adjusting ..for example "cappuccino" on the present is so weak that I had to discard the liquid to the sink, be prepared for a lot of experimenting.
Greggiexplore omg this is a lot of work for an automatic machine, thank you!
@@Greggiexplore OMG...No hands no cookies, right
@Greggiexplore - thanks for sharing your experience. From my years of using espresso machines, I have a few thoughts and recommendations:
- Espresso strength is largely defined grind size, which must be done via the dial in the back of the machine and is not handled by the machine automatically. Drastically different results will occur with a couple notches on the grind adjustment dial. This is called the 'dialling in' process (I would recommend a google search) and should be done quickly when initializing the machine or changing coffee beans to taste. For stronger espresso shots, you will need to increase the finest of the grind. The machine can pull shots in any strength you want to set it to.
- Best results will come from a medium-dark roast coffee. Some medium to light roasts will be harder to work with and won't extract as nicely. I would recommend starting off with Lavazza Gran Espresso or Super Crema. These will yield great results easily.
Hope these notes help you on your espresso journey and for your next machine!
Liam
But it doesn't even make COFFEE!!! I was so excited to purchase this $1500 machine...I almost spit my first cup out! It was not coffee but watered down espresso! The best part about this machine was going in the garage to retrieve my old coffee maker from the donate pile and make self a cup of coffee!
It literally says in the manual that if you use it first time, you need to make at least 3 cups of espresso to get the best taste.
@@eggyeggy6349 well I literally said coffee, not espresso. Glad you can read. It does not make coffee. Coffee is brewed flavor, an americano is watered down espresso and that is what this makes. No matter how many cups you make it doesn't change this fact.
Hmnn.. Mine makes a normal cup of coffee
@@john-ze7eu a normal cup of coffee is brewed. This does not brew coffee. It makes an espresso and waters it down, which is actually called an Americano. This was confirmed by the manufacturer
@@elizabethvalentine3820 Goodness. Don’t be so unkind.
