DELONGHI ECAM23.460 Coffee Maker, Stainless Steel, 1450 W, 1.8 liters

Product Information

There’s also the option of preparing a latte macchiato, cappuccino or cafe latte with a single button press. This dispenses both the coffee and milk automatically, according to the settings you provide, and the results are brilliant. If you’re looking for a machine that can make both espresso and milky coffees with that “coffee shop” taste, the ECAM23.460 is a great option and well-worth the money.

Of course, if the machine had a proper frothing wand, you’d have precise control over this, but these three settings are enough for most people. The first thing to mention here is that the DeLonghi ECAM23460S is fairly short as compared to many other super-automatics, with dimensions of 9.4”x13.4”x16.9”, and weighs 28.8 pounds. It’s slim, compact, and can fit in almost anywhere. If you’re really serious about your coffee, you could technically bring this to work and put it right on top of your desk. Then you could sip on fine cappuccinos all day, every day. The most important factors when choosing a coffee machine are taste and aroma, and the Delonghi ECAM23.460 consistently produces lovely coffee. We think you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between the espresso produced by this machine and coffee sold by major high street brands.The DeLonghi components have no problem producing a consistent grind — even at the finest setting — and this has a significant impact on the espresso quality. On top of that, the hoses and components inside can effortlessly handle and transport this ultra-fine ground coffee. In any household, the person who wakes up first usually gets blamed for waking everybody else up. This is almost always undoubtedly due to the fact that they’re the ones who are grinding and making coffee in the morning. In addition to offering a good-sized bean hopper, the DeLonghi 23460 also features a one-scoop bypass doser for those occasions when you ran out of beans or just don’t feel like going through the whole process. Very handy!

The upside of the water tank size is that it’s a relatively compact machine. If you’re tight on kitchen worktop space, the Delonghi doesn’t need much room.The Delonghi ECAM23.460 has a variety of customisation options. These can be overwhelming if you’ve never used a bean-to-cup machine before, but once you get the hang of them the quality of coffee is outstanding. However, if you want to treat yourself, the DeLonghi PrimaDonna range is very feature-rich and sits comfortably in the higher-price points. On top of that, it has classic luxury additions, like lots of stainless steel and sexy special features. One thing to draw special attention to here is the fact that while most super-automatics have the problem of brewing coffee that’s not quite hot enough for the American palate, the DeLonghi ECAM 23460s does not suffer from that limitation. As with all bean-to-cup coffee machines, the conical grinder has several settings for coarseness (13 to be exact.) You can adjust this setting using a dial within the grinder.
