How to Steam Milk on the Delonghi Dedica Arte EC885

Рет қаралды 72,212

In this video, we look at how to steam silky, creamy milk on the Delonghi Dedica Arte EC885. While the steam wand is a nice upgrade over previous models, steam wand placement is key - both vertically (tip depth), and horizontally (tip proximity to the side wall). This machine does not have a ton of steam power at first, so the tip has to be just AT the milk surface, not below it. Also, one has to keep the tip close to the side wall of the milk can, to get a swirl going. Finally, keep your hands steady, once you find a good position! Using milk with more fat content will lead to good steaming, as will using homogenized fresh milk.

Thanks Tom.. I have not been able to get good foam quantity following other tutorials recommending dipping the steam wand tip deep after 5 seconds of injecting air.. but as you said the dedica has low steam pressure, I followed your technique of dipping the wand deep after 45 seconds and it worked! I got silky foamy milk!

Love your no nonsense no fluff videos. I prefer to forgo the fine art and have my coffee have more foam. I can mess with the flavor experience by how I incorporate the crema, coffee, and foam. For example, I can have a swirl of crema at the surface of the cup for a strong coffee hit at first sip, or I can incorporate the coffee into a foam and then add a more dense milk for a milder hit, or I can incorporate the coffee into the milk and then have a foam on the top with a little coffee incorporated for the mildest first sip. What I never do is the abortion of a Starbucks style cappuccino.

@TomsCoffeeCorner 11 ай бұрын

Hi Tom! Thanks for sharing - I do the same thing. Sometimes I drown the milk under the crema to provide a really intense taste up top. It's delightful. And yes, Starbucks does not know how to make a cappuccino.🤷🏼‍♂️

Thanks for sharing. I have both Dedica ec685 and ec885. I find that the steam pressure from ec685 is more powerful and easier to do latte art. Do you think there is more steam pressure on ec685 or the steam wand is too long on ec885 which cause a weaker steam pressure?

@TomsCoffeeCorner 9 ай бұрын

They are the same, it's just that the steam hole tip on the EC885 is a little smaller I think, constricting the flow. I can get silkier milk on the 885 though.

i cant quite figure out what im doing wrong with my ec885. I think the steam milk texture looks okay but when i go to make art the foam art doesn't push itself out of its own way and ends up looking like a blob. like if you were going to make 3 blobs, the first blobs never gets pushed towards the back when i pour the second so they all join into the same mess.

The key is to pay attention to the sound and be very still during the process. Can you hear that sound like tearing paper? That's the wand injecting air into the milk, hold it there for a few seconds. Once you've created enough foam you can put the wand a bit deeper in the pitcher so it breaks all the big bubbles and creates the silky microfoam you're looking for. All it takes is a bit of practice, but tutorials like this one Tom did can be very helpful. 😊

What ground coffee do you recommend to get a good crema on the shot of coffee? I don’t seem to be getting any. (I’m in the UK so anything you recommend that I can get my hand on) Also , after doing the coffee shot and steaming the milk, the buttons with both the ‘coffee shot logos’ flash and don’t stop. I have to turn the machine off and on again to make another coffee. Is this normal? I only got the machine today so hoping I can figure it out as time goes on , but also hoping for some advice. Thank you 😊

@TomsCoffeeCorner 3 ай бұрын

Hi Hannah, do you have a grinder? Ideally, you want to grind your own beans, and they should be freshly roasted. That will give a much better aroma and crema, too. After steaming, you have to manually cool down the thermoblock by going back to coffee mode, and opening the water spout on the side. That will run water through the thermoblock to cool it. Good luck! Tom

Guten Morgen, Tom.. Was that your first coffee of the day? I have the Dedica Deluxe and find that I can get pretty good steam out of it with the panarello (?) removed and just using the underlying rubber wand ( old school!) In your opinion, how does the Arte stack up to the older Deluxe model in the steam output. To me , the Arte steam wand seems too long and awkward to use when I have checked it out on display in a shop ( not having actually used one) It seems not to be very articulated; this is the same complaint that I have with the Bambino Plus steam wand for manual steaming use.

Hello Tom! Thanks to your videos I went ahead and got myself the Dedica arte paired with the Kingrinder K2 and yum! I also found out that with the Motta 350ml pitcher (as in your video) I get much better results than the original shipped with the Arte. But now I have a problem. I have the IMS double basket (i use 14g) and I like drinking coffee so I drink about 3 maybe even 4 cappuccinos or so during the day. I found out that after the 3rd or so maybe the caffeine kicks in because i start feeling my veins in my head pumping a bit. So i have some options: 1. Use same basket and fill it less like 10g or so and grind finer so extraction time isn't much smaller cause of less resistance 2. Just make double shots and split it, and whenever I want another coffee, warm the 2nd shot in the microwave a bit (in low setting so taste isn't lost) 3. Get a single basket and just pull single shots Which one do you think is best option?

@TomsCoffeeCorner 8 ай бұрын

Well, single baskets are hard to come by, and more difficult for puck prep. I'd just split the shot into two then, and save one for an Americano later, for example. Or an iced latte.

Hi Tom :) thanks for the video, do you think it’s possible to steam oat barista milk with this machine? It would be awesome if you made a video trying that :)

@TomsCoffeeCorner 8 ай бұрын

Hmm, that's going to be hard. Oat milk just doesn't coagulate like dairy milk. I recently did make a video with the ECP machine, but not with the Dedica. Perhaps I will have to try that. You need a lot more power to do Oat milk in my opinion.

@yakofdez4698 6 ай бұрын

Of course, as long as it is oat milk that can be frothed. Not every vegetable milk allows for that, unfortunately, but there are definitely many you can frothed just like regular milk. I've been doing it for quite some time with oat and soy milk. But again, bear in mind not every veggetable milk will work, in fact some will go to waste if you try to foam them. But you will find other you can foam 100% no problem. They usually sell as "Barista", show a pic of a cappuccino on the box or something like that, but others don't advertise it in any way but still are very good to get microfoam from. It's a bit try and error I'm afraid. I usually buy only one brick of the milk I'm interested in and try if I can get foam, if I can I buy more.

Hi guys, thank you for your answers, I’ve just seen them. So for you to know, I have been able to steam oat milk with the dedica arte. Still, I miss a bit of power and I’m not good at making latte art but the cream is very good. I am using oat ly and another Spanish brand and both are nice.

When I open the steamer, the water comes out strongly and foams quickly. Is it possible to work on diluting the water and obtaining steam?

@@TomsCoffeeCorner , thanks. Yes, I do use barista kind - my fav is MOMA Barista, it's just I'm lacking steaming skills at the moment (all new to me!) and, after my attempts, that oat 'milk' doesn't taste as well as when I was just vigorously shaking the box 🤣 So was just wondering if there are other tips and advice for steaming plant based 'milk' .

I managed to get best barista results with the oatly barista. Its quite expensive but is also what's used in most cafés in Germany. If you're located in Asia, check out the singapurean brand "oatside", that one is also really good (maybe even better than oatly)

Hey Tom, question regarding overheating. After I press the steam button and the light stops flashing, I usually have like 30 seconds to start frothing or the dedica overheats, and if I try to steam after the shot buttons flash, the wand loses pressure and cuts off. Is this normal? It's really annoying. Thanks!

@TomsCoffeeCorner 4 ай бұрын

You have to start steaming within that timeout, otherwise the machine defaults back to coffee mode. You could just press the steam button again though.

@Riamoka 4 ай бұрын

@@TomsCoffeeCorner I'm not quite sure if what's going on is normal then. It dosent just switch back to espresso mode, rather overheating and not letting me pull another shot until purged. But if I don't purge and rather try to steam milk like that, the steam will stall quickly. Any advice? The time between the steam light indicating its ready and the device overheating seems arbitrary, but would be ~30sec

@edwinchua941 2 ай бұрын

Same issue here

@Riamoka 2 ай бұрын

@@edwinchua941 hey! Found a fix. 1. Heat the steam wand until wand light stops flashing 2. Press either espresso button, open up steam wand until completely purged and its only pumping out hot water, once you close the steam wand the espresso buttons shouldn't be flashing. This preheats the wand. 3. Press steam button again, once light stops flashing, purge til only steam is coming out, close wand, ready your milk jug and steam. This fixed it for me, it seems like alot of work but it only takes an extra minute or so. So much more consistency, also remember to take your milk out of the fridge at the start of your whole coffee making process to give it time to warm slightly

It can do about 16-18 grams in, and whatever ratio you want out. But you'll need an aftermarket basket like the IMS H26 for that. The OEM baskets don't fit that much.

After steaming, you have to manually cool down the thermoblock by going back to coffee mode, and opening the water spout on the side. That will run water through the thermoblock to cool it. Good luck! Tom

885 has PID, maybe thats why it gets a weaker steam

@TomsCoffeeCorner Ай бұрын

I'm not sure it really has a thermoprobe for the PID. The new EC900 and EC950 do however.

@Jamesgggg Ай бұрын

@@TomsCoffeeCorner Thanks, I said this because I found a thermoprobe at the outlet of the thermoblock. I think the logic behind is that 885 does not have a solenoid valve, so the program can not set up a more higher steaming temperature like banbino does, otherwise when steaming milk finish, thermoblock in 885 glows without solenoid valve to cool down, that is quite easy to cause some heat damage.
