The DeLonghi Gran Dama 6600 is one of a select few fully automatic
espresso centers in the world to offer coffee lovers the ability to brew
true Italian macchiatos, as well as lattes and cappuccinos with the touch
of only one button. Simply place your cup beneath the nozzle and press any
of the 7 beverage buttons, and in just over a minute, you will be enjoying
cafe-quality coffee nirvana, all without ever moving your cup! The
patented design includes a 25 ounce cold milk container with an adjustable
lever to switch from cappuccinos and lattes. The detachable milk container
stores easily in the refrigerator and has a unique cleaning button that
purges steam through the internal parts to prevent milk from drying and
going sour. This interchangeable system can also be quickly swapped out
with an included hot water wand for tea. All the parts are
dishwasher-safe.
DeLonghi designed the Gran Dama 6600 so that you could easily set it to
remember your favorite espresso and milk-based drinks. The Gran Dama 6600
already comes preset with 4 standard cafe espresso and coffee sizes, in
addition to dedicated buttons each for cappuccino, latte, and macchiato.
Each one of these can be customized to your precise standards, so that,
once set, you will enjoy the same consistent cup every time you brew. If
you prefer, you may leave the cup sizes at their preset levels, or you can
change them as many times as you like by holding down each button when
pressed until the LCD displays "Programming." When the desired amount of
milk or coffee is dispensed, press the button once more and the Gran Dama
6600 will remember that size each time you brew.
DeLonghi engineers have made the operation of the Gran Dama 6600 as simple
as possible because all the bells and whistles mean nothing if they are
hard to use. Designed for both flexibility and ease of use, the Gran
Dama's bright blue LCD display guides you through every stage of brewing,
programming and cleaning, so that you may tailor the 6600 to suit your
tastes without going back to school. In mere moments, you can set not only
the size of your favorite drinks, but also the strength and temperature.
You can also use the programming button directly beneath the LCD, marked
“P,” to enter automatic on/off times, set the clock and to access
automated cleaning features. Throughout every stage of operation, the Gran
Dama 6600 will always keep you informed with helpful, easy-to-read words.
The DeLonghi Gran Dama 6600 has not one, but two, premium water heating
systems to provide the proper brewing and steaming power for you coffee
drinks with a very fast cycling time. Unlike a traditional boiler,
thermoblocks offer rapid warm-up times paired with efficient, on-demand
water usage. Turn on the Gran Dama 6600, and it will be ready to brew AND
steam in just a few moments. ThermoBlock technology channels the water
through the heating element while minimizing the amount of water heated to
what the user demands. This process ensures water does not become stale
sitting in a boiler for an extended period of time, and the stainless
steel lining prevents your fresh water from ever acquiring a metal taste.
Additionally, the Gran Dama 6600 has a cup warming platform set just above
the boiler to help pre-warm your espresso or coffee cups.
DeLonghi designers know their coffee and have implemented patented
grinding technology so that "What you grind is what you brew." The Gran
Dama's conical burr grinder discharges directly into DeLonghi's variable
brew group that can brew up to 2 drinks at once. The removable brew group
is easy to clean (just rinse under warm water) to ensure a tasty brew and
long life of the 6600. Additionally, the ultra-compact size of the brew
group reduces the distance water must travel and ultimately results in
hotter coffee in your cup.
DeLonghi engineered the Gran Dama 6600's grinder to be easy on the ears.
The professional-grade, hardened steel conical burrs rotate at a low speed
with minimal noise to produce consistent, fresh, and aromatic espresso and
coffee. It it fed by a 8.5 ounce coffee bean hopper and has 13 different
fineness adjustments to accommodate a wide variety of coffee roasts.
If you like to experiment with new coffee roasts or have a need for decaf
from time to time, the DeLonghi Gran Dama 6600 offers a clever pre-ground
option so that you do not have to swap out beans from the grinder. Simply
add 1 scoop (scoop included) of freshly ground coffee into the funnel and
have a custom brew in seconds.
The Gran Dama's 60 ounce water tank is visible from the side but pulls
straight out from the front so that you never need to pull out the entire
machine just to fill the water tank.
As with any coffee or espresso machine, the DeLonghi Gran Dama 6600 must
be properly maintained to ensure long life and excellent taste.
Thankfully, DeLonghi engineers made this process a breeze. To clean the
brewing system, simply turn the power off on your Gran Dama 6600 and then
open the front door. Remove the brew group, rinse under warm water and
replace. Descaling of the boiler is also a critically important process,
especially if you are not using treated water. The Gran Dama 6600 will
alert you when you need to descale based on the water hardness level
indicated on the provided test strip. The process is fully automated; when
the LCD screen says to descale, all you must do is add the solution and
press a button.
