The Gran Dama fits squarely between the Saeco Xelsis and the Saeco Exprelia. Check them out. With an increase in price, you get more bells and whistles!
A lot of people mention the low temperature of drinks from B2C machines, but my ESAM 5500.B makes drinks that are still too hot to consume after waiting 10 minutes! This is on the medium heat setting, rather than high, and includes frothed milk on Caffe Latte mode.
Like for the video, but I want to add important things not covered in the video. After using the cappuccinator, wipe the ringlets on the connecting nipple with a damp cloth. If this is not done, they wear out very quickly and the cappuccinator starts spitting milk. Further, at least every six months to disassemble the brewing unit (it is simple) to wash out the remnants of the old grease, lubricate the rings and apply fresh food grease. If you do not do this sooner or later, you can get a tidy sum when repairing the gearbox of the charger (true for all machines of the Delonghi ESAM, ETAM family). And in conclusion, this model has a not very reliable display, which costs a lot of money, so this is its main disadvantage. And so in general, a great machine.
Everyone has different opinions on taste. I prefer the Breville DB shots that I pull myself but if I'm running late to a meeting I use a superautomatic. There is a time and a place for every machine! ~ sam
You'll need to look at commercial machines if you're opening a coffee-focused business. I wouldn't recommend a superautomatic -- they're very expensive when they're commercial grade and require a TON of maintenance. Check out our video on how much to invest in a commercial espresso machine; that will give you guidelines on your budget. Let me know what that is and I can give you recommendations. - Kat
Hello we have this original machine and carried out the descale...it’s telling us the “ground too fine “ message. We replace spit press ok but nothing comes out, it doesn’t rinse - it’s trying to buy now we are worried it hasn’t rinsed the descale solution out and we may drink coffee with descale solution in it. I cannot work our what to do, can you suggest anything? TY
I have one of these machines.. and on the screen it comes up and says "Ground to fine. Adjust mill and insert water spout and press OK" I insert the water spout and press OK and nothing happens..... How do I fix this problem?

It has three different froth settings. But yes, it definitely froths to some extent on every setting and doesn't have an option to just heat the milk. Hope that helps! -Kaylie
Seattle Coffee Gear That's a shame - but thanks for getting back to me. I've never seen an auto make quality micro-foam worthy of a flat white so i guess that model doesn't work for me :-)
Alex Willingham The Breville Oracle makes great foam automatically. It's a great mix of a manual and automatic machine. Available if you call in! www.seattlecoffeegear.com/breville-oracle-espresso-machine-bes980xl

Now... how does the crew review place it compared to the Saeco equivalent? Speed, noise, output/build quality, perks, etc.
I would also mention that the machine makes the cappuccino backwards. The espresso should always be first in the cup
I have one of these machines.. and on the screen it comes up and says "Ground to fine. Adjust mill and insert water spout and press OK"
I insert the water spout and press OK and nothing happens.....
How do I fix this problem?

Thanks for your nice video, how do you compare espresso shots from this machine to Breville dual boiler?
Hi there I am thinking to buy primadonna 6620 for my office.i was just wondering how many cup can I make in 15hrs it's quite busy place.thanks for your help.
Between Delonghi ESAM 3500n and Esam 5500b..
Can you tell me the differences between these two machines? And, which one is better? Thanks!

She takes a little sample sip now and then but you are right in general she drinks black coffee and espresso. I should know, I make her coffee :p ~sam
Can it do only frothed milk?
It has three different froth settings. But yes, it definitely froths to some extent on every setting and doesn't have an option to just heat the milk. Hope that helps! -Kaylie
does the milk stay cold or do you have to add milk each time you want a coffee
+Michelle Barnes The milk stays cold while brewing, you just need to put the carafe back in the fridge until the next time your brew!
Can you manually froth milk using a Steam wand? :-)
No manual steaming. - Steven

5:09 - it's NOT stainless steel, it's chrome plated and they wear STUPIDLY fast to show the copper underneath.
Thanks! Kat is going on a well deserved vacation ~ while the Kat's away the mice will play :) sam

You have to open whole machine to trash the garbage - that is the odd engineering
