Delonghi coffee maker or breaker? (DeLonghi ICM 2B)
Member Name: MrandMrsG
Advantages: Delicious coffee, keeps warm on hotplate Disadvantages: Takes a while to heat up on hotplate after filtering DeLonghi ICM 2B coffee maker is a great product, but could be better. For example it has great ideas like a permanent filter which you simply remove and wash and a large pot which stands on a hotplate, well it needs to really if you dont want warm coffee. The more water you add to this the more coffee you need to put in too. Otherwise you end up with ridiculously weak coffee. WE have found that if the coffee is left to 'brew' on the hotplate for a while after filtering you can have a hot coffee, but this takes time (approx 10 mins), we also found to begin with that the coffee pot drips when you are pouring, until my genius wife decided to try pouring with the lid slightly raised. Simply raise the lid with your thumb when pouring and like magic the spills dont occur. This is obviously a design error and the coffee is coming out faster than the spout can handle and i therefore running down the pot. By lifting the lid in effect you are making a larger spout and the problem is solved. Be careful though as there will be a bit of steam coming out of the lid so make sure thumbs are well back. There are no added features for milky coffee this is a basic black coffee device. A good price for a coffee maker, and it is so easy to use. Now all you need to worry about is choosing the right coffee Summary: A good product if you have time in the mornings
