De'Longhi Magnifica S ECAM22.110.B vs Krups Intuition Préférence+
Technical comparison · Bean-to-cup machines
The choice between these two bean-to-cup machines mostly comes down to how you want to froth milk: the Magnifica S ECAM22.110.B relies on a manual steam wand, the Intuition Préférence+ automates it with a dishwasher-safe carafe. That's the difference that matters most day to day.

The differences that matter
- Milk system: manual steam wand on the Magnifica S ECAM22.110.B, automatic dishwasher-safe carafe on the Intuition Préférence+ → frothing is hands-on on one, a button press followed by a dishwasher cycle on the other.
- Pre-ground bypass: only on the Magnifica S ECAM22.110.B → only this one can brew a cup from already-ground coffee without touching the built-in grinder.
Which one to choose
Choose Magnifica S ECAM22.110.B if…
Choose the Magnifica S ECAM22.110.B if you often brew with pre-ground coffee — a decaf in the evening, say — since its bypass funnel takes it without going through the built-in grinder. The trade-off is that cappuccino means working the steam wand by hand, pitcher and wrist, not a single button.
Choose Intuition Préférence+ if…
Choose the Intuition Préférence+ if you make cappuccino every day and want the milk to come out of the carafe at the touch of a button, then wash that carafe in the dishwasher instead of rinsing tubing by hand. The trade-off is no bypass funnel: every cup goes through the built-in conical-burr grinder.
