I have the same machine. I am with you up until the pouring of the milk. After that, I disagree. I usually pour my milk really slowly using a thin stream and the cup at 45 degrees. The aim is to preserve the dark, velvety surface of the coffee. Then as the milk reaches half full, I level the cup and slowly move the pouring stream of milk like a brush to makes the shapes I want. This way, you get a lovely contrast between the milk and the coffee. Just my two cents.

I'd seen others saying the wand should go right to the bottom to get the milk swirling but I'm going to try your way. ATM my wand seems to want to keep boiling the milk with these big explosive bubbles. I've checked for blockages, I don't know what's going on!

Just to give an explanation of what happens is that the wide steam wand (panarello) has a pinhole in it that keeps airing the milk making it frothier than silkier. The idea is to close that hole to let it heat rather than air. I have a machine where I can take that off and have a one-hole steam wand at the very bottom. That I can use to first air the milk at the top and when i have enough microfoam I can soak it deeper to start swirling and heating the milk instead. (I'm still a newbie so please correct if wrong ;)

The best improvement for me at this moment is non pressurised basket and a hand grinder. Also if you like a flat white, pay attention when buying a coffee on a profile or flavor notes. You don't want flat to have a sour taste, try to buy a coffee with taste like prunes, chocolate or red apple rather then more fresh notes like green apple, cherry, strawberry, etc.

The best way to get good froth milk from Dedica EC685 is to throw away the metal bit (Panarello) into the bin and use just the rubbery/silicone wand that sits inside it. Then a simple hack is needed to prevent it from falling off after 2-3 sec when the steam is introduced - put a cheap plastic clamp tie/band on the top part of this silicone wand and... that's it. Now you have a steaming wand that can froth milk for latte art :)

@sebimaurer
2 жыл бұрын
thats what i did :D just a zip tie to fix the soft plastic wand thingy in place. the panarello allows everyone to get some foam. with it removed you are responsible for it but once you learn the technique you will get far supperior results (-> proper microfoam for latte art). the trick is to first blow some air into the milk by keeping the "wand" on the edge of the milk where it makes like a paper ripping sound. when you increased the volume by about 1/3 you put the "wand" deeper into the milk to get the milk to spin like a tornado and heat it up to about 55°. when done, smack your milk jug against the table a bit and swirl it and you have wonderful, silky microfoam. now go and watch some latte art tutorials.

My 3420 also maxes at 14gr. How strong of course depends on bean, fineness, firmness of tramp. But I'm so pleased with what I can get out of my 3420. Sometimes I just enjoy the espresso straight, other times really milky, and everything in between at other times. Also with practice, I'm getting a pretty nice, silky milk going. I think that with practice and experimentation, the result I get from my 3420 is quite good. A lot of people snicker at the inexpensive DeLonghi machines, but I wonder if they're not rather underestimated by people who've not really given them a truly good try and put their skill (or practiced till they got some skill) into getting the best they can out of it. I grind beans fresh, and after the first couple of weeks, the shots and milk had gotten really good!

I've just spent a lot of money on a twin-boiler Silva and a pricey grinder... but I still rate the Dedica as a great little machine, especially if you use this method to thicken your foam. Milk frothing devices are the opposite, giving you empty froth that immediately rises, leaving you with just hot coffee with a foam lid on it. This hack will give you that nice, cafe-quality mouth-feel of silky coffee. I have the older Dedica that doesn't allow this adjustment. If it did I may have just kept it instead of spending $2k on coffee gear ;)

I cheated and bought a Nespresso milk frother, after seeing one at my brother’s place. I got a really nice one, stainless steel chrome shaped like a milk jug. It’s great. I couldn’t for the life of me make milk with a steam wand. And I don’t seem to have cappuccino/hot milk adjustment on my Delonghi I think is Dedica model, it’s red. My mum had been steaming milk for years with the wand since she was given a Delonghi, different model much more manual and I can’t even make coffee in that one haha. When she tried my milk frother, she went out and bought one, a cheaper copycat version of Nespresso, and it works really well. I don’t really have a lot of time to fuss around with the steam wand, so this method works well. And I use ESE pods in my coffee machine which also saves a lot of time. I don’t have coffee every day so I like that they’re individually foil sealed, so the coffee doesn’t go off.
