Coffee machine De'Longhi 1.8L ECAM350.55.B

The De'Longhi 1.8L ECAM350.55.B is a fully automatic espresso machine designed for home and small-office use. This black, compact appliance integrates a 1.8-litre water tank and a 300 g bean container, delivering traditional espresso, brewed coffee and milk-based drinks at the touch of a button. The machine features an intuitive touch control panel with a clear LCD display, a removable brewing unit and a dishwasher-safe drip tray grid for straightforward maintenance.

Advantages

The ECAM350.55.B includes the patented LatteCrema system to produce dense, stable milk foam at an optimal temperature for cappuccinos and latte macchiatos. A user-programmable “MY” function lets you adjust aroma intensity and coffee/milk quantities to personalise beverages. Built-in automatic cleaning integrated into the froth regulator simplifies milk circuit maintenance and enables storing the milk carafe in the refrigerator after cleaning. The machine also offers direct recipe buttons, a cup holder for convenience and a large 300 g bean hopper for less frequent refilling.

Usage recommendations

Use medium-roast whole beans for balanced aroma and ensure regular descaling according to water hardness. Rinse and run the automatic milk cleaning cycle after each milk-based preparation. Empty and dry the milk carafe before storing it in the refrigerator. Clean the removable brewing unit weekly and replace water daily for best performance.
