Detailed Specifications​

1. Design and Build

Dinamica Plus has an attractive and stylish design that catches one’s eye immediately. Comes in a titanium finish and has an LCD touch display on the front panel with image-printed buttons to adjust the froth amount, temperature and strength of your drink. It is not as big as you may think in terms of dimensions. It is about 23.6 cm high and 42.9 cm deep. So it will take some space in your kitchen. 

It has a black central control panel with chrome treatments around the screen and the dispenser. The display includes the controls to customize your drink. The customizations include the amount and strength of coffee, amount of foam and temperature. The ground level of beans can also be adjusted to ensure perfectly brewed barista-style espresso. The capacity of the bean container is 300g. For the people who like decaf, there is a feature to add ground beans. There is also a removable water container of about 1.8 liters capacity, which needs to be filled manually.

The features list is long. It can brew a mug of six cups in one go. If you want tea, it is not a problem with this machine. It can dispense only hot water too for your teas. The spout area height can be adjusted to a maximum of 5.3 inches and has two pouring spouts. So you can pour two espressos at a time. The machine auto rinses itself after each startup and each shutdown.

2. Performance

Delonghi Dinamica Plus not only looks amazing but also performs amazingly. It can make 16 different types of coffee. The company’s app can control it. The interface of the app is very user convenient. The machine has plenty of customizable settings like bean grind size, strength, temperature and froth amount etc., which can be operated from the machine or even more easily via the app. Once you get used to these customization settings, making shop-like brewed coffee at home is very easy. The volume of water can also be adjusted from the app or the control panel.

It takes about 30 seconds to prepare an espresso and 1 minute 25 seconds to brew a cappuccino from pressing the button to the end of pouring. The default quantity of the espresso is 40 ml, but 5 ml increments can increase it from the settings. The automatic milk frother can produce a mug full of thick, creamy and velvety foam, which remains till the end of the drink. A scoop of ground beans can be easily added if you want decaf. 

The maximum sound it can produce is about 80 decibels, which can be unpleasant to hear. But due to the machine’s fast performance, this sound remains only for a few minutes, which is quite bearable.

3. Phone Application

Having an app on your phone through which you can make a cup of coffee just by sending a command while you are on your bed in the morning feels very convenient. You just need to make sure that there’s a cup under the spout. The app is called coffee link and connects to the machine via Bluetooth.

The app offers some additional customizable options like adjusting coffee quantity in ml and milk quantity during pouring time, which you don’t get to see on the machine’s control panel. You can turn on the machine directly from the app and send a command to prepare a coffee of your choice. It is much easier to customize drinks on the app than on the machine itself. The app also provides the complete status of the machine.

4. Cleaning & Maintenance

Cleaning the machine is also easy. It automatically empties and rinses the bean pout and rinses itself as soon as you turn it on and again when you shut it down. It gives you a prompt message to turn on the milk frother dial for cleaning after use. You need to clean the water tank and the milk frother by yourself when prompted. So there’s no need for heavy daily cleaning. Minimal cleaning at the end of the day is sufficient.

  3. Measuring Scoop.

Final Verdict​

Undoubtedly Delonghi Dinamica Plus is truly a stunning machine. Fully packed with amazing features, it pours perfectly brewed barista-type coffee without you knowing nothing of the making process.

It can make the coffee of your choice by pressing a touchscreen display button.

Dinamica easily beats the competition in terms of easy usage and consistency. It is majorly a bean to the coffee machine and has an option to add decaf. To fill the seeds, you need to open the lid and put the beans anywhere, which makes it more user-friendly. It can pour two cups at a time. 

Customization of the drinks makes it more intuitive. You can get any coffee within a few minutes or in less than a minute. Overall if you want a coffee just like barista at home without knowing how to make it, then Delonghi Dinamica plus is perfect.


Frequently Asked Questions​

1. Is there any option to turn off the auto rinse setting while turning the machine on?

No, because if the machine does not rinse itself, the holes in the coffee press can be clogged, and there can be difficulty in the machine’s functioning.

2. Can flavored beans be used in this machine?

Yes, you can use flavored beans. Just keep in mind to grind them separately so that the coffee press does not get clogged from the oil of the flavored beans.

3. Does it keep the milk cold?

The milk container is detachable and can be stored in the refrigerator between uses. When the container is re-attached to the machine, it does keep the milk cold for a while. But it would be best if you detached the container to preserve milk from the machine’s heat.
