Delonghi Magnifica S - Bean to Cup coffee machine REVIEW

#coffeemachine #DelonghiMagnificaS #Review

I love coffee... and not just because I'm a teacher! Since moving to the UAE, I decided to upgrade my ability to make coffee from home with the Delonghi Magnifica S B2C coffee machine!

Because I use it every day, I decided I would do a short review on this machine. If you love coffee, and are looking for a great and affordable coffee machine - this might be the machine for your!

This machine cost me under £400 (2000 AED)

You can purchase these machine from Amazon and other popular retailers.

You need to remove the external part of the milk frother and wash it under a tap to clean it properly as it gets milk on the inside, as well as wipe the internal part. Personally I don't use it as not necessary. I agree that your grind is too course - try settings 2 or 3 out of the 13 settings. Optimal dosage is 80% on the dial. I would also weigh your yield and set it at 25 to 30 mls for the best coffee

Thank you!!! I This is the best video I've seen on this machine. I destroyed a corner of my kitchen this morning 😁but ended up with a decent cup of coffee 💪

I have made 44, 212 shots with my Magnifica S. Certified by De Longhi at 38, 078 and by Ewing electrics Nowra at 44, 212. I don't use ground beans and only put filtered tap water in it. It has just been cleaned and confident it will get to 50, 000. It likes Lavazza, Vittoria and Aldi's $11 Lazza.

Good review. Have the previous model which has been faultless for many years. I think the previous model is far more ergonomic with the brew head being removed from the front which should be cleaned after each session. Coffee hop and grind dial on the left top side also easier to access to fill and adjust on the fly. These machines have the same internals as the £2000 models and so produce exactly the same quality shots. Very adjustable and grinder can be hacked to produce more grind range which is useful. As with others, I've personally found that sainsbury espresso beans produces the best coffee with this machine. Expensive fresh roasted specialist beans straight from the roasters I personally have never had any success with. Don't forget to flush it between each shot and with experience you can set to to produce excellent results. Even the coffee snobs would have to agree.

I really like this machine i find pod coffees taste like plunger yum perculated coffee, but this makes really nice coffee for a machine at home☕, and cool elephant 🐘

great review, my wife was interested in how good the machine was to froth up the milk...

I have using this machine for about 8 years now and never had any problem. Every evening I clean the tray and rinse the brewgroup. Fresh water in the morning and I can have an excellent 30ml espresso.
My advice to users: Always use fresh espresso beans from a local seller and set grinder to 1 or 11/2.
Don't expect to much from this entry machine, it can make you only a decent espresso or americano if using a double shot in a hurry.
If you have more time and want better coffee and latte drinks, you have to step up to a Breville machine or other.

Dude adjust the grind setting to a lower grind, it’s way too watery

[jordomeister]

I have had my Magnifica S machine for 10 years and it has worked without any issues. The only issue I have is that the scoop for measuring pre ground coffee has gone missing. Do you know how many mils the scoop contains?

Thanks, enjoyed your video, very informative!

Hi! Tanks for video! I have the same machine but i ve lost the spoon. Can you tell me how many grams enter in that spoon? Thanks

[eddyvandergeest]

HI Alex; Very nice video explaining how machine works. We have identical machine and the one thing I cant seem to find anyone explain is how one can make the concentratoin of coffee/water stronger. Our factory setting makes a watery coffee in the single expresso mode and I cant seem to figure out how to lessen the amount of water through the spout once you press the button. Do you possibly have any idea abpout that? The grinder on top is on 1 and the front dial is on max.

Great video very well explained thank you

[sfayuesa]

Thanks for the coffee and British accent :)

[BlinkersGameDev]

Nice review. One question: How does it know when to use pre ground or full bean coffe

[JWS]

I thought you were going to talk us through how to make a coffee step by step.

[saraleetaiwan]

Is the espresso made by thus model creamy enough? Its made by only 15 bar?
