Features And/Or Advantages Of Delonghi ECAM22110SB Espresso Machine:
Grinding And Brewing: Delonghi ECAM22110SB Espresso Machine has an integrated grinder which ensures that only the fresh ground coffee beans are used straight from the grinder. Manufacturer calls this system as “direct-to-brew system.”
The beans are poured into the conical grinder which is easily accessible from the top. Once this is done, you can grid the beans in the standard mode or can adjust the grinder settings to fine or coarse, as per your liking. If you want your espresso to taste smooth, set the grinder to number 4 and you are done!
Fully Automatic: This espresso maker doesn’t need any manual compressing; the beans are ground and brewed automatically at the press of a button. People who like experimenting with brew strength, tamping and controlling the brewing may not be happy with this coffee maker, because everything in this machine is automatic and pre-programmed. Here neither an espresso gauge nor portafilters are required.
Coffee Strength And Cup Size: Though one cannot adjust their coffee strength manually in Magnifica, they can always do it by turning the dial from minimum to maximum according to the strength they require in their coffee. Similarly, you can also choose your cup size, whether single or double, just by pressing appropriate buttons on the control panel.
Adjustable Coffee Spout: The height adjustable coffee spout allows you to accommodate various cup sizes. If you are using a small cup, just pull down the spout and if you are using bigger ones like mugs or travel cups, push the spout up, so that you can have enough space to fill them up.
Water Tank: Magnifica has a 1.8 litre capacity water tank which is accessible from the side of the machine. It can be pulled out for an easy filling as well as cleaning whenever required.
Water Filters: Delonghi ECAM22110SB Espresso Machine has an inbuilt water filtration technology. Hence, one can even use tap water for brewing without any worries. This eliminates the need of buying disposable water filters every now and then.
Instant Reheat: Gone are those days when one has to wait for the machine to heat up before brewing the next cup of coffee. Magnifica only needs ten seconds before it brews you the next cup of coffee. This is made possible with the addition of a new feature known as ��auto purge’ technology, which immediately heats up the machine and brews the second cup almost instantaneously.
Control Panel: All the above functions can be controlled using a simple and user-friendly interface right on the face of the coffee maker. The icons are simple and there are glowing indicators to help you as well. All of Magnifica features can be controlled by one touch buttons. Moreover, the control panel keeps you alerting from time to time when the water tank is empty, when there are no beans, when you need to clean up the tank, etc.
Disadvantages
Cup warmer: Nope, not really. Some people are complaining that the heat produced isn’t enough. This can be considered as a disadvantage only if all the coffee lovers love to have their coffee boiling.
Who Should Buy It?
This coffee machine suits well for those people who can invest a bit more in their quest to drink quality cappuccinos and lattes sitting at home. Though a bit costlier when compared to the standard coffee machines manufactured by Delonghi, it is a lot cheaper when compared to the super automatic coffee machines produced by the many other companies.
Final Verdict
Having said that, Delonghi ECAM22110SB Espresso Machine is not intended for those people who are too tight on their budget, but otherwise, this little machine loaded with full of awesome features is definitely the one you want for your home. Last but not the least; Magnifica is not intended for commercial use.
