Been watching your videos and I have a budget of 1,500 to 2,000$ CAD. I was planning on buying the lattego 5400 (mainly a latte, cappuccino and regular coffee drinker) but watching the other videos, I'm not sure anymore. Which one would you recommend? Thanks for you help :)
Thank You for your Review, it was actually a really good one. I recently purchased a Delonghi Magnifica Evo and I have to say I’m very impressed and satisfied with the product . It’s my first one from them. 🎩
You helped us make our decision after months of bantering back and forth. Absolutely in love with this machine and the coffee that we can get from it. Formerly a Gaggia owner, and this is so "simply" wonderful!
thank you soooo much for going over the details with us. i just bought the machine and was overwhelmed with the length of the directions/books LOL> You are are the best really thanks
Just bought this model today, xmas present for the wife and I. Wont be used until our new house build is finished in spring time. Really looking forward to it :)
Год назад+3
I purchased this espresso machine on Costco with a nice $200 discount this weekend. I look forward to trying it at home. Thanks for the video.
The only way to do that is by selecting the grounded coffee instead of beans(and leave the compartment empty) and then press the my latte.This way it will only give you the milk because there is no grounded coffee 😁
Followed the video to learn how to work it. I used to have a Delonghi but a different version. Made my first cup following the instructions on the video and it was perfection! Thank you
Merhaba videonuz için teşekkürler bende de aynı makina var fakat ben şunu merak ediyorum bu makina kahve yapmadan sadece süt köpürtüp veriyor mu biliyor musunuz ? Mesela bazen kahvemi yapıyorum ve sütü az geliyor süt eklemek istediğinde tekrar kahve öğütüyor ne yapmam gerek bilmiyorum 😢
Türkçeye çevirmiş olmanız çok süper teşekkür ederim 🙏🏼 Çok video izledim Türkiye’de detaylı anlatım üzgünüm çok yok bu çok iyi olmuş tüm sorulara cevap buldum saygılar.
Great video. You were the reason I purchased this particular machine. I love the way my drinks all come out. I've only had it about 2 weeks and started having an issue with the sensor for the the milk drinks, though. I have to trick it by placing something white between the sensor and the milk container (per Delonghi Customer Svc). It's fine for the 2 standard milk drinks, but it becomes an issue with the My Latte drink.
@@TomsCoffeeCorneraccording to delonghi “it’s not a defective machine” and if I exchange the machine, it is likely to happen with the replacement. . .but technically it is defective. I clean the machine every day, if you aren’t careful and do not remove the “white” fakeout, it will produce steam and someone can get burned if not careful. I’ve been doing some comparison with the Phillips superautomatic machine, but I really do love the delonghi.
I have this model. Ive used these machines for years, and know a lot about the features of a lot of models. When I purchased this one {EVO with milk despensor} I found that it is everything I could ever asked for. It is very well made, and coffee and frother works great! I would buy it again, anytime.
Looks like a great piece of kit. Was all set to hit the button to purchase it until I saw the depth of the machine. It’s pretty big lol. Back to the drawing board.
This is a great review, thank you very much! It would also be great to see a review of the new Magnifica Plus machine. I can’t find a good review of it anywhere, but the new display, the number of drinks, the extra shot function and the larger milk container are attractive. I'm thinking between it and Evo.
Nice machine I had got one because was on sale,but more noisy then the Prima Donna S and Magnifica s.I keep on 2 beans and med hot.Pucks always perfect.Grinder needs to be changed only when its working...its a Delonghi thing. Great video as always Tom.
Thanks for sharing! It's a little loud when turning the spindle to compress the puck, but the result is worth it over other superautomatics, in my opinion. Cheers!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner yes most def,you must try the Prima Donna its the absolute best. I use all with diff beans.The Dedica I dont use much now too much hassle with grinding and all.
Good evening! I need your help. The coffee machine at the beginning It makes me really nice milk froth. But now it's coming out like water is not foamy at all 😢😢😢 and i have this machine only 2 months… please do you know why?????
1 more thing guys! Mandatory!!! Take out the mounting piece(yeah the piece that attached to the machine) of the milk froather by pressing on the same "eject" button, pull it out and wash it! If you dont wash that piece there will be no foam after 3-4 uses! Enjoy your coffee👍👍👍
many thanks for your comment i just buy this machine this weekend just can you please help me how i can do latte machiatto or flat white from this machine ? or any other coffe which we can create from this one ?
This reminds me a lot of the Phillips 3200 lattego! A few months after they came out I got cousins to pitch in and buy one for our amazing cousins housewarming. It's well-loved and so easy to maintain but I haven't seen anything to compete with on the market until possibly this unit. I love those simple easy to clean milk carafes without any straws or crevices to have to struggle to clean that the Lattego series have.
I actually find that this machine outperforms the Philips LatteGo. The espresso is a fair bit more intense, and the milk foam a better consistency too. I was honestly surprised. But bear in mind that I am using very good Dinzler Il Gustoso coffee beans, which is important in the result.
@TomsCoffeeCorner understood, but from a bean to Cup machine, that lattego milk carafe is an Amazing piece of engineering for the fact it actually works whether it's producing high-quality latte foam or not. It functions so well, is ridiculously easy to clean and it's even top rack dishwasher safe. Now if it would actually make real (read good quality) espresso
@TomsCoffeeCorner A little too much bias, in my opinion. The LatteGo outperforms the DeLonghi on Amazon reviews. I'll probably get the 5500 LatteGo just to have the silent brew and iced coffee options.
@KRWWWLNG that makes sense. For ease of use in cleaning it's freaking amazing. It might not make the same quality microfiam milk as a couple other machines but those are all a reliant upon internal systems and a milk uptake tube you have to clean. My cousin has done absolutely no maintenance on her latte go 3200 in years. Massively neglecting it but using it daily and she has a roommate that also uses it
Thanks for this great review. I just had mine delivered today. The factory settings seem to be working great with my beans, however, I would like to see if I can further improve the quality of my espressos. Two questions you might be able to help with; 1. How can increasing the temperature effect the quality of the espresso? 2. Is there a way to purge hot water through the coffee nozzles before making a coffee to get the system warmed up to the point that it is at perfect temperature on my first espresso? Really appreciate any help you can provide.
I use dinamica plus. I heard that de longhi uses too much water for espresso- 40ml when classic espresso is about 25-30ml. Because of that, espresso can be a bit too watery. Am I right? What is the solution? Lowering espresso volume in settings( small coffe, or manual setting )?
You can set the Dinamica Plus to your own amount of beans and drink volume, using the "My Drink" feature. I have programmed one to be about 25ml. But yes, the pucks are also a bit smaller than a traditional espresso machine. I will be doing a video on the Dinamica Plus soon enough. Cheers!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner yes, i tried that but it is dificult to set a proper amount of coffe ml manualy. It would be easier if de longhi had ml settings in menu. I also tried to set max coffe aroma and small coffe from control panel. The espresso volume was about between 25 -30ml, so closer to real espresso. Do you think that jura makest much better espresso, closer to the "real" one than de longhi?
Just purchased it 😊 and I’m glad that you liked it 😂 I’m busy with the set up. My first coffee will be for tomorrow morning 😍 The only thing I would say is that it would have been good to have a milk only option for when my son wants to have a hot cocoa (but he can still use the microwave 😜)
You can use the my latte option and be ready to remove it before the coffee comes.. I did that by mistake and was really nice fluffy cup of milk 😊 I know you will have espresso left but it's worth it 😊
I think i’ve just found a way around this after a bit of wasted coffee. Before pressing my latte change the coffee bean setting to decaf scoop (but don’t load any). Bingo, hot milk only. My 5yo seems to be getting just as much use out of the machine as we are!
Hi. Thanks for the very helpful video. We just got this machine and noticed, as you showed in your video, how the machine always ejects some water when it's first started, like a pre-clean step. Is there any way to turn that feature off and on?
Great review! Thanks.. Also wanted to know if i can select coffee crema option with high heat setting like you used the my latte when in settings? Thanks a lot ❤
Hi! What grind setting on my separate grinder would you recommend to use for the separate pre ground chute? Fine, medium, coarse? I’m asking because we need to use for decaf too. So one for regular in bean hopper and decaf in the chute. Also, can the machine use any beans? Or only ones that aren’t oily.
Hello there! Yes, your beans are probably too old - or in other words roasted too long ago. These videos may help: How to extract the perfect espresso: ruclips.net/video/piO6c695Op8/видео.html How to Get Crema: ruclips.net/video/00NSG9459a8/видео.html Why Supermarket Coffee Beans are RUINING your Espresso! ruclips.net/video/5BgMKqu8fJI/видео.html
So, if the 'espresso' setting actually produces a 'lungo', can the volume be adjusted or do you just interrupt the shot? Also, the shot time seems very short. Would it help to make the grind finer?
I still went with the Philips 5500 Lattego because it does more types of drinks. This model seem to only have five drinks: Espresso, Cappuccino, Latte Macchiato, Iced Coffee, and Coffee. I do like that it does iced coffee though but you didn't review that mode. Also you can store the frother in the fridge with the Delonghi.
Hello Tom, I have been searching to buy one of the full automatic espresso machines. I like the features of the magnifica plus but it has only 15 bar pressure just like this magnifica evo. Should I go for rivelia or dinamica with 19 bar pressure or 15 bar pressure enough for you? Thank you
Bought one to replace an old Eletta. Slightly disappointed with a couple of features. The milk frother is not adjustable, like on the Eletta. I feel on standard settings milk delivery is short and mainly froth. Using Lavazza beans, grinder requires setting to 5/6 for good extraction. 2 delivers powder and stalls the pump. Espresso, however, is excellent on my settings. It was easy to dial it in following your tips. Thanks.
Hello can you please help brought this machine but when it gives the coffee it comes very little like drips its not coming out like in the video soo annoyed with it is it normal does it have a setting for it ?
Hi Tom. I love your videos and have been watching many for days as we are looking for a perfect automatic coffee machine. I love Evo but I was wondering is it possible to get espresso macchiato with this one? Or could you recommend a machine that could make (pressing one button) a decent espresso macchiato? Thank you in advance.
Hi Kat! Have you checked out the Magnifica Plus? That has more drinks available, and does an even better job than the Evo imho. But I must be honest, I haven't tried making an espresso macchiato, as I need larger drinks. Cheers!
From another viewer: "On the magnifica EVO, to do hot cocoa, you can drop the powder in the cup, attach the milk frother full, select the grinder bypass but don’t actually load any coffee, hit the my latte button, and it’ll empty the frother into the glass and then cancel itself because there’s no coffee in the bypass. Magical!"
Very knowledgeable man you are. Thanks for the videos! I love my coffee very hot, does it make it hot enough? Can I make latte and cortado with this machine right? How I can adjust this with my latte function? Thanks in advance!
I bought this one today and noticed that you did not have the water filter, which came with the unit, in the water container. When should I use that as other videos put the filter in but that may be only when they are using it for the first time. Love the video and any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Hi Tom, Your video review convinced me to get a Magnifica Evo, and I set it up yesterday. However, when I set the grind to 2, it clogs up the machine, and I've ended up wasting a lot of money on coffee that doesn't come out at all. Also, the tamper doesn't dispose of a puck, but more like regular grinds. What am I doing wrong?
Hi, thank you very much for your review. I just wanted to ask you about the 2x button. What does that thing do? It makes two full extractions (ground, compact, and extract) so you can have two coffees?
Hi Tom great review. I have a question: ive set the temp at high, grinder setting just like yours and use freshly burned beans(vintage espresso) but my espresso still comes out sour. Do you have any tips or solutions to this problem?
Had a chat with the local delonghi office as I was asking the difference between some of their machines. Especially this eco and the 23.460 which is older but here about 200 euro cheaper. Same brew unit and same milk handling. Less fancy outside 😂. So will go probably for the 23.460
How is the temperature of the milk-based drink? Is it hot enough. I recently bought a Delonghi Dinamica Ecam 350.55B. The flat white is not hot enough. I even had to microwave it for a minute. Seems the milk is not heated and it reduces the overall coffee temperature.Please let me know your experience with this machine. I can have mine replaced with this.
Just bought one of these and this saved a lot of head scratching, clarified a few things for me - Thanks :-) - Now, as I don't have particularly hard water do I bother with the water filter or not?
Great review! Thank you. Have you had a chance to check out the Bosch VeroCafe? It’s a $1600 machine, and I’m trying to figure out if the extra money is worth it when they do essentially the same thing from what I can tell?
Hi Tom, thank you for this video. Only about espresso and capuccino taste, how do you compare the results from this machine with the ECP3420 and the Dedica EC885?
Well, portafilter espresso machines are still better, but this does quite a good job for a superautomatic. Drinks will be less potent though, if you know what I mean.
Thanks for watching, comments welcome! Check out the machine on Amazon: amzn.to/3q0eupR (affiliate link)

That's a good price, and Costo's return policy and warranty are unbeatable!
Ordered mine and it comes tomorrow. Thank you for your review. I'd love to see some coffee bean recommendations.

Not really. You'd need the Dinamica Plus for that. Sorry!
Hi, I have a similar machine to this and I wanted to make hot milk without the froth for children, is there an option without the froth?
I would love to know how to get a less foamy/frothy milk coffee
Good machine luckily mine broke two weeks before warranty - there's a lot of defects re milk jug connector and sensor.
Just wondering if u played with it. If able to froth only. Or able to have an option the machine to the espresso shot first then the froth. Thanks.
Is this or gaggia's magenta the better pick? I'm guessing they are both good machines.

Amazing Review! But wondering if you would know how to dispense froth milk only? They say click my latte button twice but doesn’t seem to work!
Just make sure your milk carafe is filled up, and inserted completely. It should work. But you have to abort before it tries pulling a shot. Cheers!
Can you also use it to make iced lattes? If not, which machine in this price range would you recommend?

Hello can you please help brought this machine but when it gives the coffee it comes very little like drips its not coming out like in the video soo annoyed with it is it normal does it have a setting for it ?
Dose it make good flat white?
What is a button next to last bean?Is this a cup?
Hi Tom. I love your videos and have been watching many for days as we are looking for a perfect automatic coffee machine. I love Evo but I was wondering is it possible to get espresso macchiato with this one? Or could you recommend a machine that could make (pressing one button) a decent espresso macchiato? Thank you in advance.
Hi Kat! Have you checked out the Magnifica Plus? That has more drinks available, and does an even better job than the Evo imho. But I must be honest, I haven't tried making an espresso macchiato, as I need larger drinks. Cheers!
Hej. Is it possible to only get warm milk out of the machine, without a coffee product?
From another viewer: "On the magnifica EVO, to do hot cocoa, you can drop the powder in the cup, attach the milk frother full, select the grinder bypass but don’t actually load any coffee, hit the my latte button, and it’ll empty the frother into the glass and then cancel itself because there’s no coffee in the bypass. Magical!"
I really like the sensor for my latte function
Hi thanks for your great reviews, this machine has better quality espresso or Philips 4400 series?
@@DigiTechTools This one. I am not impressed with Phillips in comparison to Delonghi.
Very knowledgeable man you are. Thanks for the videos!
I love my coffee very hot, does it make it hot enough? Can I make latte and cortado with this machine right? How I can adjust this with my latte function? Thanks in advance!
For me, it's hot enough. The MyLatte function just dispenses milk until the carafe is empty. Cheers!
I bought this one today and noticed that you did not have the water filter, which came with the unit, in the water container. When should I use that as other videos put the filter in but that may be only when they are using it for the first time. Love the video and any help would be appreciated. Thanks
I bought mine used, so it may have been discarded. Anyway, I always filter my water first with a Brita, before putting it in the machine. Cheers!
Can these superautomatics make just a good cup of coffee, or are they only for espresso drinks?
My milk frother doesn’t do that with the cappuccino function, any way to fix that?
Hey hi! Is there an estimate of how many grams does the machine use for low mid and high concentrations?
Hi Tom, Your video review convinced me to get a Magnifica Evo, and I set it up yesterday. However, when I set the grind to 2, it clogs up the machine, and I've ended up wasting a lot of money on coffee that doesn't come out at all. Also, the tamper doesn't dispose of a puck, but more like regular grinds. What am I doing wrong?
Well explained. Good job
what about the container for 1 cup of ground coffee? I pour it in and it immediately ends up at the bottom where the rest is?
Hi Tom, do you know how this machine makes different the cappuccino from the macchiato? For me the latte and the macchiato look almost alike. Thanks.
Honestly, I think they are the same. You can affect these more with manual machines, but not really with superautomatics...
Hi, thank you very much for your review. I just wanted to ask you about the 2x button. What does that thing do? It makes two full extractions (ground, compact, and extract) so you can have two coffees?
On my model, it just makes twice the volume, so instead of 30ml it makes 60ml, resulting in a more watery espresso.
Hi Tom great review. I have a question: ive set the temp at high, grinder setting just like yours and use freshly burned beans(vintage espresso) but my espresso still comes out sour. Do you have any tips or solutions to this problem?
What is the roast degree on the beans? Lighter or darker?
Hi, great, thanks! Does this machine has to be descaled?
Oh yes, ALL espresso and coffee machines for that matter.
Had a chat with the local delonghi office as I was asking the difference between some of their machines. Especially this eco and the 23.460 which is older but here about 200 euro cheaper. Same brew unit and same milk handling. Less fancy outside 😂. So will go probably for the 23.460
So, Tom in one way I believe there are too many delonghi machines to test. On the other hand most are internally the same 😊
I’ve got one after watching your review very helpful Thank you Tom all the best!
Awesome, have fun with it! Tom
How is the temperature of the milk-based drink? Is it hot enough. I recently bought a Delonghi Dinamica Ecam 350.55B. The flat white is not hot enough. I even had to microwave it for a minute. Seems the milk is not heated and it reduces the overall coffee temperature.Please let me know your experience with this machine. I can have mine replaced with this.
Just bought one of these and this saved a lot of head scratching, clarified a few things for me - Thanks :-) - Now, as I don't have particularly hard water do I bother with the water filter or not?
No, you don't have to. But still I'd recommend using a brita filter and descaling regularly to prolong its life.
Great review! Thank you. Have you had a chance to check out the Bosch VeroCafe? It’s a $1600 machine, and I’m trying to figure out if the extra money is worth it when they do essentially the same thing from what I can tell?
Hi Tom, thank you for this video.
Only about espresso and capuccino taste, how do you compare the results from this machine with the ECP3420 and the Dedica EC885?
Well, portafilter espresso machines are still better, but this does quite a good job for a superautomatic. Drinks will be less potent though, if you know what I mean.
Love your review. I bought it
