TrueBrew Over Ice™ Technology

The De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM35025SB is the first and only fully automatic coffee machine to feature De’Longhi’s innovative TrueBrew Over Ice™ technology. This unique brewing process is specifically designed to create smooth, full-bodied iced coffee that isn’t watered down. Unlike traditional iced coffee, which is often just hot coffee poured over ice, TrueBrew Over Ice™ brews at a lower temperature, pre-infuses and infuses the coffee, and allows you to customize the strength to extra strong. This results in a more flavorful and refreshing iced coffee experience.

15 Bar Pressure Pump

The De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM35025SB is equipped with a 15 bar pressure pump, which is considered the gold standard for espresso machines. This high pressure ensures optimal extraction of flavor and aroma compounds from the coffee grounds, resulting in a rich, full-bodied espresso with a thick, velvety crema. The 15 bar pressure also allows the machine to brew coffee quickly, so you can enjoy your favorite drinks without waiting.

Rapid Heat-Up

One of the standout features of the De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM35025SB is its rapid heat-up time. The machine’s Thermoblock heating system can reach brewing temperature in less than 40 seconds, which is significantly faster than many other espresso machines on the market. This means you can enjoy your morning coffee or espresso without having to wait around for the machine to warm up. The quick heat-up time also makes it ideal for busy households or offices where multiple people want to make coffee in quick succession.

Bean-to-Cup Brewing System

The De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM35025SB boasts a fully automatic bean-to-cup brewing system, which means it grinds the beans, brews the coffee, and dispenses it into your cup with just one touch. This eliminates the need for manual grinding and tamping, making it incredibly convenient for users who want a hassle-free coffee experience. The bean-to-cup system also ensures that you’re always brewing with the freshest possible coffee, as the beans are ground right before brewing.

Integrated Burr Grinder

The De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM35025SB features an integrated conical burr grinder that grinds coffee beans fresh for each cup. This ensures maximum flavor and aroma extraction, as freshly ground coffee is far superior to pre-ground coffee. The grinder offers 13 different grind settings, allowing you to customize the coarseness of the grind to suit your preferences and the type of coffee beans you’re using. This level of customization ensures you can achieve the perfect grind for your ideal cup of coffee or espresso.

Premium Adjustable Frother

The De’Longhi Dinamica ECAM35025SB comes with a premium adjustable frother that allows you to create barista-quality milk foam for cappuccinos, lattes, and other milk-based drinks. The frother is easy to use and adjust, allowing you to create the perfect texture of milk foam for your preferred drink. Whether you like your milk foam thick and creamy or light and airy, the adjustable frother can accommodate your preferences.
