Components
Has a pressure gauge
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
One of the most important aspects to pulling a great espresso is the amount of pressure used. Aspects such as how tightly tamped the portafilter is can affect the pressure and therefore the overall quality of the extraction. A pressure gauge helps you to adjust your process to achieve a perfect 9 bar of pressure.
Has a 58mm portafilter
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
A 58mm portafilter is the most common size in the industry, offering a greater range of accessories to purchase such as portafilter baskets and tampers.
Has a steam wand
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
It has a steam wand, which allows you to make steamed/frothed milk to create other drinks from an espresso base.
Has a commercial steam wand
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
It comes with a commercial style steam wand as opposed to a pannarello steam wand. These are harder to master but can allow you to produce better, richer milk froth.
Has an integrated grinder
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The espresso machine has an integrated grinder so that you don’t have to buy a separate one.
Uses E61 group head
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
An E61 group head provides excellent temperature stability, a key aspect of producing great espresso. It also has the benefit of a passive pre-infusion feature.
bean hopper capacity
250 g
A bigger bean hopper means that you have to refill it less often.
Has a display
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The device has an electronic display to present information to the user.
Has cup warmer
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
With a cup warmer you can heat the cups before pulling your espresso so that it doesn't go cold quickly, which affects the taste and quality. It also means that you don’t have to manually heat them using hot water.
Water source
Has PID controller
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
A PID controller controls the temperature of the boiler electronically. It offers a far greater degree of accuracy and consistency than a regular, mechanical thermostat used to control temperature. This is very important as a temperature of around 92°C to 96°C is key to pulling the perfect espresso.
Has a removable water tank
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The water tank is removable, making it easier to refill.
Water tank is transparent
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
With a transparent water tank you can easily see when it needs to be filled up. This is important as attempting to make an espresso with an empty tank can damage the machine.
Has integrated filter
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
An integrated water filter produces cleaner water for brewing espresso. It also helps to prevent the build up of limescale.
Has direct water connection
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The coffee machine can connect directly to the water supply. This ensures you never have to refill the machine with water.
can dispense hot water
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
A hot water outlet is useful as it can be used to heat cups, as well as making americanos, long blacks and teas.
water tank capacity
1.8 l
With a larger water tank you don’t have to refill it as often.
Maintenance
Has sleep mode
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
After a certain period of being idle, the device will switch to a sleep mode to conserve power.
Has cleaning alert
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The machine alerts you when it requires cleaning.
Indicates when drip tray is full
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
With a drip tray indicator the machine informs you of when you need to empty the tray.
Prevents overheating
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
It has an internal fuse/thermal sensors which prevents the machine from overheating.
Automatic coffee circuit rinse
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The machine automatically cleans the coffee circuit, meaning that the machine requires a minimal amount of cleaning.
Automatic milk circuit cleaning
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The machine automatically cleans the milk circuit, meaning that the machine requires a minimal amount of cleaning.
Features
Has a pre-infusion function
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
With a pre-infusion function you get a low pressure of water before it ramps up to around 9 bar of pressure. This gently expands the grinds to get a smooth extraction and to help prevent channeling in the cake.
Can brew and steam simultaneously
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
With a double boiler or heat exchanger system, you can brew and steam milk at the same time. This has an advantage over single boiler machines where you have to wait between brewing and steaming for the temperature to adjust.
These buttons can be programmed for different types of coffee such as an espresso, doppio or ristretto. This means once you have mastered a particular style of coffee, you can get it the same every time.
Has a shot timer
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The time taken to pull an espresso shot is one of four key elements, and should be around 19-22 seconds. Once you have the grind, dose and tamp correct, you can use the shot clock to time the pull perfectly.
A higher number of grind settings gives you more flexibility when choosing the fineness of your ground coffee. The particle size is important as a grind which is too coarse can produce weak tasting espresso, whereas a grind which is too fine can lead to a bitter taste.
number of drinks
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
For machines which accept coffee capsules/pods, each one can create a different drink, including teas and hot chocolates. More types of drink available gives you a greater range of choice.
supports Wi-Fi
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
The device can connect to Wi-Fi.
supports a remote smartphone
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
This technology allows the users to use their smartphone as a remote control for the device.
Miscellaneous
Has a 3-way valve
✖DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
A 3-way solenoid valve relieves the portafilter of pressure and moisture after the extraction. This produces a dry puck which can easily be removed afterwards. It also means that you don’t have to wait for the pressure to equalise, so that you can make back-to-back coffees.
Has one touch cappuccino
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
With one press of a button you can create a cappuccino.
Uses ground coffee
✔DeLonghi ECAM 23.210
Ground coffee, especially if freshly roasted and ground, results in much better quality coffee than the kind of results you get with pods or capsules.
