Hello,
we are about to buy a fully automatic machine. We're between the Delonghi 3200 S and the Delonghi 3300, but what's the difference between the two? I just found out the 3300 has a rapid cappuccino system. But what's that, anyway? Is this necessary or is it not possible to make good milk froth with the normal milk frothing nozzle?

My eyes also like the Bosch TCA 5802. Unfortunately, I didn't find any reports on it. Has anyone heard from her or has experience with her?

I would be really grateful for your help, because such a decision is not so easy. And the coffee should also taste good.

Whoever has another tip for a good fully automatic coffee maker, then bring it here. I'm grateful for every tip. However it should not cost much more than 400 €.

The difference is the second thermoblock. So for the hot water/steam lance you have your own thermoblock, so that you can prepare milk foam and espresso in parallel or directly behind each other. With the 3200 you have to wait until the necessary temperature is reached again and maybe in the meantime "unsteam".

If you need milk foam or hot water more often, it's worth the extra charge! I myself have also decided for a 3300!

Hello,

I am proud owner of a VA Delonghi ESAM 3300 since yesterday. I can only recommend. I'm so far thrilled biggrin.gif By the way, you can buy it at Media Markt for 379 Euro. Unfortunately I can't say anything about the Bosch, I'm just a beginner, but thanks to this great forum here, you can learn everything worth knowing about VA.

Hello,
first time thanks for the answers.
We were at Media Markt yesterday and took a look at the machine. However, we thought that was the 3200 and the seller didn't tell us anything about the two thermoblocks. That's awesome, if we can get them for the prize. This costs everywhere else means more.
However, I find the hue a bit difficult to get used to. But I think I can overlook that.

Then we'll probably make another trip to Media Markt tomorrow morning

Thanks

Hello,
so, we bought the Delonghi 3300 at Media Markt. However, he bought with us 399 €.
But that was probably still cheap, because in the Internet costs the good 100 € more.
Reward it has itself in any case. The coffee is super delicious, the cappuccino even better, and Latte Macchiato is the hit.
We are happy with the reason.
Thanks for the tip.
Ciao
