- Does the De'Longhi Magnifica grind beans itself?
- Yes. It has a built-in burr grinder, so you fill the bean hopper and it grinds fresh for each shot. You can also adjust the grind setting.
- Can it make lattes and cappuccinos?
- It brews espresso and has a manual steam wand for frothing milk. You steam and pour the milk yourself; it does not make one-touch milk drinks.
- How does it compare with the Magnifica S or Evo?
- The core setup is similar: built-in grinder and super-automatic brewing. Newer Magnifica models add features such as a manual milk frother or more drink options, so check which wand and controls a given model has.
- Is it hard to clean?
- The brew unit comes out for rinsing, and the steam wand needs wiping after each use. It also prompts for descaling, so plan on regular upkeep.
- What do I need to set it up?
- Beans, water, and a cup. It helps to have a milk pitcher for frothing and to run a few shots to dial in the grind and strength.
