DeLonghi Magnifica ESAM 3300 | Crew Review 

I just got this machine for my birthday this year, 2019. I just love it. So simple and convenient. To make multiple lattes for guests is fast and easy. I highly recommend this machine.

Great review, wonderful delivery! This really helped me get it so much more than reading about it. Thanks so much!

I've had his coffee maker for 8 years and I love it. A few years after I bought it I bought one for my girlfriend and she uses it every morning and loves it.

Your review is great! Just got this and am loving it!!! Kudos to Seattle Coffee Gear:)

I've had mine for over a year, great product. I lost the tips to the steamer, contacted the mfg and for a small charge ($30) the sent them out, received within in 2 weeks. Great review, thanks.

Dad sent me this as a gift. It’s pretty much the greatest thing he’s ever done for me.

Great to see another Super Automatic review... I've missed them 😄

Wow loved this video thanks!

Nice review. I just got mine yesterday and brewed my first cup this morning. For the first cup, it was pretty damn good. Just remember to turn the steamer off before putting the milk container under it. I did not do this and made a mess. 🙂 One thing not mentioned is the cup warmer on top of the machine. I did not know about this when I bought it and it was a very nice surprise. Having a warm mug to start is supposed to help with ending up with a nice hot cup of Joe.

I very much enjoyed the tutorial and the personality of the presenter. I was kind of intimidated with the written instructions but she made a very enjoyable demonstration that I will think about the next hundred or so times while I get used to my DeLonghi. Great Job I will follow the channel because I like her casual optimism.

Thank you for this tutorial. I was struggling to make capuccino...jus got the machine yesterday...but now I see it's pretty straightforward. I don't want to make art, I just want my foam with my coffee. By the way, the taste is pretty good. Must be the beans, I'm in Mexico.

Your review helped us decide on the DeLonghi ESAM3300. Just purchased this machine via Amazon - priced nicely (unfortunately y'all were out of stock), looking forward to setting it up and using some home-roast for espresso.

Our Magnifica ESAM 3300 is still running strong since 2011. Just make sure to keep up on the cleaning and de-calcification. My only complaints are that it doesn't do well with oil beans (we still do but just hand to use a coarser grind), and temperature is not hot enough for my taste. I hardly ever use the frother since it takes forever to heat. When I do, I cheat and microwave the milk to get it warmed before frothing it with the ESAM. Just got back back from San Juan and had some good coffee (even the one from the hotel pod machine tasted better) so now thinking about getting a replacement but have a sentiment attachment to the Magnifica.

Wow, 7 years ago. I just bought a refurbished one for ~$500. This video makes me glad I got it!!

I bought an ESAM 3300 based largely on this review and I have to say, it's just as described: a great little machine for the money. It's easy to use and makes a solid cup of coffee. A nice purchase for anyone who doesn't have the cash to spend on a super-deluxe model but would like something a bit more user-friendly than those express-type machines.

I currently own a ESAM 3300 that i found in great condition on craigslist for $70. Great machine! I love everything about it, just be careful with the steam dial. It takes some force to turn and I have heard some people say theirs has broken off.

Bought a refurbed unit about a year ago, still rocking my socks. Best coffee I've ever had at home, and my guests love it.

Ordered a refurbed one on the Black Friday sale... comes tomorrow.. Cannot wait.

Thanks again Gail!

Have you reviewed the Delonghi ESAM 4110S? I have searched and searched, but cannot find a review like your others.

What grinder settings do you use on automatic delonghi? Thank You

Would anyone recommend this over her 2019 recommendations? Would seattle gear say that those 2019 recommendations are better? Those 2019 ones seem to be in the same price range.

So I just got this refurbished unit from you guys. I had a manual delonghi and typically did a double shot and made an americano. What settings would you recommend I start out with to achieve a decent shot? Using Illy medium roast beans. :-)

If you press the 2-cup button is the result more watered down than the 1 cup setting? Meaning i need to make the coffee setting stronger if i am brewing 2 cups?

so if i want half decaffe like i get in my starbucks double shot on ice (5shots) drink this would be a good machine since you can put ground coffee in the other side?

LOVE the Machine too for all its features, ease of use, water filler, bean filler is excellent as you’re not refilling after every couple of cups, the frother is a dream (no nozzle pop off!), and last but not least, easy “disassembly” for cleaning. True it’s noisy (dare say loud), but the biggest con is that it does not make very hot coffee... or at least I don’t see where the water temp is adjustable to make it hotter (despite the you tube vids that show it) Not happening on my model ESAM 3300. Big con! When I add me half and half to me coffee it’s lukewarm. Real bummer!

The water volume switch in my refurb unit never seemed to work, unfortunately. Any tips on how to get it to work?

gale what coffee and grind setting do u recommend@??

Any advice about whether I should buy Gaggia Brera Espresso Machine or DeLonghi Magnifica ESAM 3300 or ESAM04110S?

Looking for a machine that I can make espresso or coffee. Should I go with the Delonghi ESAM 3300 or the Breville Barista Express? Which is better?

Hi! You mentioned not to buy too oily coffee beans for this machine. Not sure if I understood right. Did you say medium roast Beans are best? Would you be kind to recommend a few brands that are ideal for this particular coffee maker please? Thank you!

Does Bunny still work at Seattle coffee gear?

Have it for a long time. 5 or 6 years. Still working fine. And it makes alot of coffie. About 1 kg of coffie every single day since we bouth it

Not a huge fan of the styling/design of this one but I love, love, love that the water reservoir slides out from the front!

Would this be good to make tea for guests who don't like coffee?

I want a super automatic but I prefer beans that are oily!? What to do?

whats the best position dial for the coffee grinder?

Which one is better, this one or Breville BES870?

How many grams of coffee does it grind when the volume of coffee button is on Max?

I bought mine over 15 years ago. It paid itself a long long time ago.

She doing good I loved

Picked this up for 13$ at a thrift store. It was dirty and had seen some use, but a little maintenance and it started right up. Just needed a descaling and some elbow grease. I'll probably replace the o-rings and the snapped steam knob next :D Easy fixes, great results.

Mines broken help! I think its in the water pump is the problem?

What does the descale button do?

Great video like all your videos, I just bought myself a newer version of this machine, the ESAM4200. A quick question; what would you suggest for the grinder number and coffee amount combination to get a good Espresso with medium roast coffee beans?

I got this machine 7 years ago been dark roasted beans the entire time with no issues.

Hi. Just recieved this yesterday. Trying to figure out how to make a good shot of espresso with crema. Using starbucks espresso roast already ground..should I have the store grind it for me at an espresso setting or is it fine to buy foreground..OR BUY BEANS and use the fresh grind side? Lastly...which settings are good for. Good crema. I usually just want 2 shots???please and thanks

Thank you for the review, it was very helpful to get me started. I am using Lavazza Super Crema in my new Magnifica 3300 it tastes great until the last sip which is bitter/sour. Should I treat it like my beer and just throw the last sip out or is there something I can do to make it “good to the last drop”? 😉

In the 12 years of my latte enjoying experience - I've owned 3 super-automatics. One Saeco Incanto which was complete junk. Two Delonghi - a 3400, and a Magnifica compact...The 3400 lasted 6 years with a plethora of use, and my Magnifica is going strong for 4 years. Do yourselves a favor - go with a DeLonghi - they're Italian espresso workhorses.

Gail/SCG Team, thanks for your great videos. I purchased this machine a few weeks ago and love it. Is it possible to add a water filter to the tank? If not, can I put one in anyway and let it float in the tank?

Hey, i have like the machine I want ask you What is the mill number please ?

Hi Gail! Thank you for your helpful review vids! I have decided to get a coffee machine but am crushed between ascaso dream collection and delonghi 3300.. Ascaso cuz it's beautiful and unique and delonghi for its convenient super automatic features. I gotta admit that I haven't made coffee by myself before but enjoys a glass or two throughout the day so I am worried that I may not be able to make a good coffee with ascaso espresso machine but the design of it keeps dragging me back to it.. What would you do if you were in my shoes? Thanks so much for reading my comment.

Would you prefer this one or the Breville Barista Express Espresso? I know they are not comparable straight across but I am between those two.

Just received my coffee machine and the coffee is terribly sour. What do you? How to adjust it? I tried different grinding scales.

My coffee always tastes hotter in the machine. I’ve changed the grind settings… no change. Any suggestions?

Delonghi Magnifica Esam 3300 or Perfecta Esam 5400 ???

Ahh no oily dark roast beans..that's a deal killer.

That's a pretty nice machine. Still made in Italy?? I don't know?

Has anyone ever had this problem: My espresso shots come out in drops rather than in a stream? I've tried adjusting the left knob (amount) but it still comes out in drops.

Good review but the camera keeps focusing on you rather than the product, and it's annoying.

What settings are suggested to get a creamy espresso? Have had mine for a day and realize for optimal results the grinder should be on 2-3, with minimal water and maximum coffee dispersion. This typical for most super autos?

Can you make regular coffee too?

In 2020 today I buy that’ 😄

Does it stop by itself or no?

I just opened for the first time and i can't get it to heat the water, nothing happens from step 5 on the startup, very frustrating

Is this machine good for an office of 8 people ?

It's semi automatic?

I don't like that the plastic bits contact food, casing sure, food, no.

theres no foam...how can you make a Starbucks quality cappucino with that

You don’t want to wake Dababy

One con I can see at least for my taste is how it looks. Generally I like the looks of Saeco and Jura more than DeLonghi but this one is just not sexy at all. The cheaper Jura models that do just coffee like Ena Micro 1 are more sexy than this one.

Can't be as loud as a Grinta.

Silly woman, you’re supposed to wait till the light stays on permanently for the milk frother
