The De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM350.35.W is a bean-to-cup coffee machine in a glossy white finish that grinds just the right amount of beans before each brew. Its touch panel with display offers one-touch espresso, coffee, long coffee and doppio+, plus hot water, and the My button opens a menu of personalised recipes that can be saved and repeated. The milk frother is adjustable, for foam for a cappuccino or hot milk for a caffè latte. It also accepts pre-ground coffee and makes two espressos at once. The pump works at 15 bar with 1450 W, the water tank holds 1.8 l, the grounds container takes 14 doses and the coffee spout is height-adjustable. Water hardness is programmable and a water filter can be used. It measures 236 x 429 x 348 mm and weighs about 9.5 kg.
When choosing a bean-to-cup coffee machine, look at the type of grinder and how many grind settings it offers, the pump pressure, the milk system (manual steam wand or automatic system with a jug or carafe), the number of programmable drinks and whether it can make two cups at once, as well as the capacity of the water tank, the bean container and the grounds drawer. It needs a 220-240 V socket and free space above it to refill the tank and the bean container; the brewing unit and the milk circuit should be cleaned as often as the manual says, and soft or filtered water spaces out descaling.
