The differences that matter
- Preset drinks: 4 on Dinamica ECAM350.15.B versus a much wider catalogue on EQ500 iAroma → on EQ500 you switch recipes without manual adjustments.
- Milk system: manual steam wand on Dinamica ECAM350.15.B, automatic dishwasher-safe milk tube on EQ500 iAroma → frothing and cleaning stay manual on Dinamica.
- Pre-ground bypass: only on Dinamica ECAM350.15.B → useful for evening decaf or pre-ground coffee without the grinder.
- Price: EQ500 iAroma costs more → the extra budget mainly covers milk automation and the extra recipes.
Which one to choose
Choose Dinamica ECAM350.15.B if…
Anyone who always makes the same two or three drinks and likes adjusting coffee by hand gets a limited set of preset recipes on the Dinamica ECAM350.15.B, a bypass for pre-ground coffee handy for evening decaf, and a lower price. The trade-off is the manual steam wand, which needs cleaning after every use.
Choose EQ500 iAroma if…
Anyone who wants to switch from a cappuccino to a macchiato without adjusting anything gets a much wider catalogue of preset drinks on the EQ500 iAroma, plus an automatic milk tube that froths on its own and goes in the dishwasher. The trade-off is a higher price and no bypass for pre-ground coffee.
