Delonghi Magnifica Evo Review 2022! 

This machine has around 5 variants globally where the drinks menu is different. On the Australian one it has espresso, coffee, and doppio+. Espresso pre infuses and then brews. Coffee brews without preinfusion as it’s a longer pour. Doppio+ is a strong espresso with a longer preinfusion on a higher dose. Each is programmable by volume with only the pre infusion the unique identifying factor of each method. It’s a shame you didn’t do Over Ice as I think that would be comparable to the Long function on previous models which pulses water at lower pressure for a drip-like (and far less bitter) cup. Overall, this is actually one of the more capable machines on the market as it has a steam milk function, three types of brewing, and a grinder that is capable of being set too fine - this means it has the range to be dialled in perfectly. It’s quick, it gets hot, it’s not too noisy, and the milk carafe is very easy to clean compared to the bulkier Lattecrema units. Also, MyLatte uses ALL the milk in the carafe. It has a sensor behind the carafe that detects when low so it stops. There are markings on the carafe so you can choose which milk based drink you want. That is a clever and intuitive way of making things easy and less complicated for people. In Australia we also have Cappuccino Mix on ours - this pours the shot first then the milk. For the price and performance this machine cannot be beat. I left a dual boiler setup and have managed - with some knowledge of coffee - to dial mine in really well. Espresso is top notch. Delonghi uses conical burrs which are more forgiving than flats, like those used in Phillips. You’ll get a lot more full bodied shots with the conicals.

I am loving it, it makes perfect coffee. Didn't know what the Doppio+ does. It is super easy to use and maintain. I have used it both work beans and grounds. One tip for users. If your milk starts to lose its froth make sure to pull the small plastic tubing from the black housing and soak it in hot water to remove small cakes on milk particles. The froth then returns. 😊

Best decision ever to purchase this. My mornings have become more delicious. Thank you for the review it helped my decision.

Looking to buy a machine similar to this, that does both coffee and espresso. Which is the best one you would recommend?

With the previous model Delonghi Maganifica ECAM22.110.B I am able to choose a standard single expresso for 40ml and double expresso for 80ml of the cofee. Is there a way to set it up with one click of button on this Magnifaca Evo?

I am looking at 2 models , the EVO ECAM29084 with latte system and the Dinamica ECAM35020 with the wand. I have looked at more reviews than I can count and still can’t make up my mind. I love lattes and ice coffee, but also enjoy americanos. I guess I’m leaning towards the dinamica, because it’s sounds like there’s more control over the milk, for example, if I want to make froth for a hot chocolate, where it seems you can’t do that with the EVO. However, all the programmed recipes of the EVO are also tempting. Can the Dinamica produce a stronger coffee than the EVO? Thank you!

Still waiting on someone to review the eletta explore. That machine is designed and has features to also do iced coffee..

Can this do a proper 25 second long shot with around 40ml out?

I am torn between this machine and the magnifica s smart Is there any major benefit to the evo machine? My wife drinks decaf lattes but i mainly drink flat whites and Americanos Many thanks!

Does it have a decaf scoop

Love the Seamaster! Great review!

⁠Hi, I’m having a problem now every time I try to use the bypass/pre-ground button to make decaf coffee. The “general indicator” light shaped like a triangle lights up and stops the brewing immediately. There’s no info in the instruction manual about what it means or how to troubleshoot that. So my machine won’t make a cup from the pre-ground compartment. Wondering what to do, anyone have any ideas??? Thanks!

Which better, Delonghi magnifica Evo or Philips 5400?

Love it Wendy and Neil

What automatic machine (bean-to-cup) would you recommend to get as close to authentic espresso / best espresso for soul espresso, and americano drinking?

I’m debating between this or the delonghi prestigio. What would you recommend please? Thanks.

I have just bought a DeLonghi Magnifica Evo ECAM290.21.B. We are very disappointed as we can not get any coffee without pushing the water tank inwards as it otherwise asks for more water or to put in the water tank correctly. We have tried all suggestions without any luck and will now return it.

Thanks for the review but wish u show the reservoir or beans capacity, grinder etc.. cleaning

Wendy, love your reviews, thanks! This sure looks like a re-skinned Philips 3200 series. It will be interesting to see if the brew group is the same when you do the comparison.

When making a shot of expresso is it a standard single or double shot. I can't seem to find that anywhere. Meaning the amount of grounds used per shot

Thanks for the review guys. Quick question - I've seen other reviews of this where it says that hot milk can't be created on its own using this machine. If I want a regular coffee from it, but with hot milk (i.e. not a Cappuccino or Latte etc.) would that be achievable via settings/my latte tweaks?

Will the milk stored under cold temperature or need to remove and put back to refrigerator?

I am considering a Jura E4, because I only drink espresso and lungo/americano, but do you think it is worth to buy the Jura, if I can also buy this cheaper machine, but then the one without the latte crema system? Thank you!

I’m just looking at this review. My old Delong’s caffe corso is getting old now and does not have that many features. So looking at this as an upgrade. The only thing you don’t mention. With my caffe corso machine I have to do a de scale. The light comes on and it the process takes around 20 minutes. It can be a pain. Do you have to do a de scale on this machine. Thanks.

Lovely Omega Seamaster!

I have the same machine. I haven't been able to make cappuccino or latte foam for a few days now. I tried low fat milk and high fat milk. do you know what is the problem ?

Can you make a double shot latte on this machine? Or can you use the ‘My latte’ to program a double shot latte? Thanks!

Great video, thanks guys. I have this machine and love it. But I have a question. It's probably a dumb one, but forgive me, it's my first espresso machine ever :) Each time I turn the Power button on, there is some water coming out from the espresso machine. Then I make my coffee and turn the Power button off and then there is some water coming out from the espresso machine once again. Is it supposed to do that each and every time machine is turned on and off? Is it some kind of rinsing mechanism? Thanks for any input!

Hi ,i get mine tomorrow, couple of questions if anyone can answer plz , How hot do the drinks come out ,im not expecting it to be piping hot but hoping its pretty hot not just warm ? And secondly, if tge machine is turned off at the wall does it reset yiur saved settings?

Is there even one automatic at any price point that can do a 25 second shot with 40, max 50ml out?

Also, is there a way to do only milk froth? Like bypassing it using the pre ground coffee ?

How did you know you were out of beans? Did it sound differently? And what if you do bypass - how do you know when you need to add coffee?

Hi - great review thank you. 2 questions really. 1. Did you use espresso beans to make a regular coffee ? and 2. If you want to switch between coffee and espresso beans and there are still beans in the hopper, how easy is it to empty the hopper to replace the beans in there ?

Hello 👋 I recently got this machine as a gift..im wondering 🤔, instead of milk. Can we use likee a liquid coffee creamer likee hazelnut flavor etc..to spruce up the flavor.

I had the Phillips 3200 and I returned it because it really didn't make crazy hot coffee. I was wondering if this is a better machine if it really makes a good hot cup of coffee and hot milk if that's what I want. Also, I'd like to know why not buy the dynamic a plus for $800 more. I know that it has other features but is this basically that expensive machine without the Wi-Fi and not as big?

I wonder how do we do Americano or long black? How do we top up hot water not milk?

hi nice video. what is the difference between delonghi dinamica plus vs magnifica evo ?

What is the minimum amount of milk you add for a cappuccino and latte macchiato?

What is the performance of this coffe machine after couple of years? Might buy one second-hand from 2022.

Please which is better, this delonghi evo or delonghi la specialista arte?? Thanks!

which is the best super automatic under 1k $? according to ur testing

You have to film a closer coffee machine, we don't need to watch you. We need to see the process of coffee machine

If you make a coffee can you just add milk at the end. Or is there a setting to only do milk? Can't figure it out

I wanna get this machine as a xmas gift It looks pretty good So u just need coffee beans in there no capsule needed?

Does the grinder get gummed up easily?

I’ve got a brand new one and the latte option isn’t available for some reason

Which do you prefer, the Phillips 3200 or this machine?

Can you make 2 cups of coffee at once?

I have this machine and the pre ground coffee light is on for no reason. I’ve had the machine about a week and have never used pre ground coffee. I can’t seem to turn it off and it won’t let me make any beverages. Does anyone know what’s going on or can offer me some advice?

Sorry for the long question, I'm so disappointed. I just got this delonghi 3 days ago. First day works good, next morning not able to make latte or cappuccino, so i did coffee. This morning cleaned everything, reset machine and redid a full restart. No latte, no coffee, and at some point even the cleaning after using water wasnt coming out. I tried to do a clean up with the setting button and the machine was just tryjng to get water but nothing was coming out and the machine was just keeping going so i shut it off. I used starbucks winter blend (flavored), do you think there is something clogged somewhere? But the coffee was going into the tray after the cycle, either wet or some was dry, what can be the problem. Im going to replaced it tomorrow or should I got with another brand?

What does the over ice button do? Can it make iced lattes?

The default coffee mode will only fill up about 40% of a regular coffee cup. I did the adjustment setting, but still, only got it up to about 60% of a standard-sized coffee cup. Is anyone else experiencing and annoyed by that? In the meantime, my workaround is to do a custom fill 45% and just run the coffee mode twice.

How many bar pump on this device?

Thoroughly enjoyed the awkward energy between you two 🙃

Will milk keep warm all the time?

Hello from Romania

Would you recommend this one over the Philips 4300 or 5400?

How do you get the milk to come out?

When she sipped the results, all she got was milk foam. Is that the desired result?

Can I just do hot milk without coffee?

Where do the grinds go

Does this machine use filters in any way? If yes, how often are they changed? Love your videos keep it up!

How can i clean it

Can you make a hot chocolate with this machine just use the milk, not the coffee?

what about espresso macchiato?

Price?

poor girl, explain her at least where the camera is :) great video, thanks!

Does it make very hot coffee, I want a machine that makes very hot coffee

To bad they didn't have somebody other than Brad spit doing their commercial..

I was hopping they show how to clean there the trash goes.

The machine does have some problems. One that often occurs is when you connect the milk container. The device does not recognize the container. In addition, the device often freezes. All in all a lot of waste of coffee beans and money.

What happened to Rebecca

If it’s such a good machine why do you have to work on them quite a bit to quote you ? I appreciate your techs being good but that statement is concerning.

Why doesn't the machine make foam in the milk? Because its just plain milk that the machine adds.

Garbage machines. Less than 2 weeks at nilk comes out not frothed.
