| Coffee and capsule compatibility | Exact UK ECAM290.83.TB EX:1 / 0132250128, with LatteCrema Hot milk carafe. This is distinct from manual-steam Evo, Evo Next and earlier non-EX:1 listings. | Bean-to-cup machine with automatic grinding, dosing, internal tamping and extraction; no separately handled portafilter. |
| Drinks and brewing modes | Seven one-touch options. Current UK technical table lists Coffee, Doppio+, Espresso, Cappuccino Mix, Hot Milk, MyLatte and Hot Water, while its older feature paragraph names Long and Latte Macchiato instead. The maker’s current table is retained with this conflict explicit; the shared manual says recipe availability varies by model. | Ten programmes cover Espresso, Filter Coffee, Americano, Cold Brew, Cold-Pressed, Flat White, Latte, Cappuccino, Hot Water and Over Ice. |
| Temperature control | – | Temperature is adjustable, but numerical degrees are not published in the exact UK page read. |
| Grinder | Integrated grinder with manual dial numbered from 1 to 7. Exact count of intermediate settings is not confirmed for this revision, so the headline grind-setting count is omitted. Manual requires adjustments while grinding. | Grind IQ selects settings from 50 grind sizes; integrated scale measures doses. Exact UK base model supplies one 250 g bean hopper. |
| Dosing and tamping | Three intensity settings, pre-ground-coffee chute and two-espresso option. Pre-ground preparation is one cup at a time. | Integrated automatic tamper forms the coffee puck; spent grounds go to a removable puck bin. |
| Milk preparation | LatteCrema Hot automatic carafe; MyLatte uses milk supplied in the carafe, with instructions for its minimum quantity. Automatic milk-circuit rinse after use does not replace disassembly and washing. | FrothPerfect steams and whisks milk in a removable jug. Four programmes are steamed milk, thin froth, thick froth and cold foam, with dairy or plant-based selection. The user pours prepared milk into the coffee. |
| Cold drinks | – | Cold Brew and Cold-Pressed are maker-named rapid drink programmes; Over Ice is distinct. No overnight immersion time is inferred. |

| Bean hopper | 250 g | 250 g |
| Cup clearance | 140 mm | – |
| Water supply | Removable 1.8 L tank; water-filter compatible. Exact EX:1 manual confirms 250 g bean capacity, correcting the UK table’s misleading ground-container label. | UK table publishes reservoir volume as 70 oz without identifying the fluid-ounce convention; litre headline is omitted. |

| Electrical requirements | 220–240 V, 50–60 Hz, maximum 1450 W and 10 A. Manual states 0.22 W standby and programmable automatic switch-off. | Exact UK table lists 220–240 V, 50–60 Hz and 1,650 W boiler/peak power. Automatic rinse at startup/shutdown does not establish a timed automatic-power-off feature. |
| Size and weight | 240 × 440 × 360 mm width × depth × height; 9.6 kg. Manual cord length 1250 mm. | UK maker dimensions are length 45.24, width 27.13 and height 40.18 cm; length is recorded as depth. Published product weight is 18.11 kg. |

Pro dual-hopper and thermal-carafe kits are not included in this base model. |
| Cleaning and maintenance | Removable infuser, emptyable grounds bin and drip tray; milk carafe has a cleaning programme and separate thorough-cleaning procedure. Maker manual distinguishes daily carafe care from periodic descaling. | Automatic rinse cycles and self-purging steam wand; drip tray, milk jug, hopper and puck bin are removable and listed as dishwasher-safe. Wipe the insulated wand with a damp cloth. |
