Review on De "Longhi Magnifica ECAM 22.360 coffee machine, black by Agata Maruszczyk ᠌

For a long time (more than 5 years) I used some kind of ESAM model with my parents. In principle, the delonghi coffee brewing unit has not changed at all since then. The same 15 bar on all models, the same 1450 W, the same 1.8 l tank. The layout is different, the mechanism is one! Actually, what I would like to point out: 1) Many try to evaluate the "taste of coffee" - the taste of coffee depends to a large extent on the BEAN. Good beans - good coffee. 2) Similarly, about the quality of the automatic cappuccinatore - a good product comes from good milk. If we take a "milk-containing package" - then the foam is not very good. The temperature and fat content of milk have little effect, the quality of the product itself, the protein content in it, is important. 3) I read in the reviews "milk turns sour in the container." Brad in my opinion. Fresh milk turns sour in the refrigerator after 7 days. Personally, I use a full container of milk in 1 day. Well, let's not be equal to our consumption, but in 7 days you will definitely spend a container (otherwise, why take a car with autocappuccino?). I store the container in the refrigerator. As spent - rinsed with water. It has never sour, and I think it will not sour. It's just a container. Fresh milk and wash when it's over - nothing complicated. 4) Water hardness. If you do not want to go broke on cleaning products, I personally would recommend pouring BOILED water. While the water is boiling, most of the calcium is deposited on the kettle and the machine gets softer water (their test will give at least 1 less). And in the settings of the machine, I would put another 1 less. We checked it on the model that we have been using for 5 years already - the test is clearly made with a margin, it washes out almost pure water. My "expensive" means, but less often due to these manipulations. Of course, something tells me that ordinary citric acid will wash everything perfectly, but I don’t want to lose the guarantee. 5) Oh, one more thing: ECAM is quieter than ESAM. Summary: the machine is good, but expensive. Cooks well if the starting ingredients are good. It's just an automatic. Good grains and milk - good cappuccino!
