The Gran Dama 6600 is a complete coffee center that will meet the needs of espresso-lovers in search of simple and convenient brewing. The Gran Dama offers DeLonghi’s most advanced super automatic espresso technology, including a double boiler system, a blue LCD display, and an automatic milk frother that’s simple to clean. The double boiler system lets you go right from brewing to steaming with no down-time in between, a wonderful feature for those who entertain, or families with multiple members that need their coffee in the morning. The blue LCD display makes it easy to program all of the machine’s functions, including coffee temperature, liquid volume, cleaning cycles, and more. Once the programmable brewing buttons are customized to your favorite drink, you can make it with just 1-touch of a button on the straightforward control panel.
While the ease of programmability is the most outstanding feature on this machine, the next best feature on the Gran Dama 6600 is the automatic frother that has a self-cleaning cycle. Once you’ve finished making a cappuccino, latte, or other milk drink, you just press a button on the front of the milk system to run a rinse cycle without having to remove the milk container. Unlike some super automatics that have all the automatic frothing components on the inside of the machine, the Gran Dama's milk system froths and steams externally. Plus, the milk pitcher and its components can be easily removed and washed in the dishwasher.

Simple Brewing |
|
The blue LCD display on the front of the Gran Dama 6600 guides you through every step of the brewing process. You can program the 4 espresso buttons to the drink size of your choice, as well as 3 specialty drink buttons so you can have delicious lattes, cappuccinos, and macchiatos with just 1-touch. You have control over the liquid volume of milk and coffee and coffee temperature, so you can have a whole range of different drinks to choose from. To enter the programming mode, just press the button marked “P” underneath the LCD display. |
|
Automatic Milk Frothing |
|
The Gran Dama 6600 has an easy-to-clean automatic frother that snaps right in to the front of the machine. When you choose one of the specialty coffee buttons, milk is drawn from the clear plastic 25oz milk container, frothed, and dispensed right into your waiting cup. Once you’re done making your drink, simply press the “Clean” button and the milk frothing system will automatically be rinsed, removing any milk build-up. The milk container slides off of the machine for easy storage in the refrigerator and it can be washed by hand, or in the dishwasher. |
|
Double Boiler System |
|
The Gran Dama 6600 features a stainless steel-lined brew boiler and a separate boiler for steam, so you never have to wait between brewing and steaming. This provides plenty of temperature stability, and it lets you create multiple milk drinks with ease. |
|
Low-Pitch Burr Grinder |
|
Great espresso depends on a great grinder to produce a fine, even grind, and that’s why the Gran Dama features a burr grinder to meet you needs. This low-pitch burr grinder on the DeLonghi Gran Dama has 7 different grind settings that you can change using a knob in the bean hopper, and it runs at a lower noise level than grinders found in many other super automatic espresso machines. |
|
Convenient Bypass Doser |
|
Everyone has a preference when it comes to their favorite coffee, and that’s why the Gran Dama 6600 has a convenient bypass doser. This feature, found on the top of the machine, lets you pour your desired amount of ground espresso to be brewed, thus bypassing whatever beans you have in the hopper. This is an indispensable feature when you have guests over that prefer decaf. |
|
Modern Styling |
|
For the ultimate in durability and style, the Gran Dama 6600 is housed in stainless steel. Coupled with the bright blue LCD display, you have a machine that features not just modern controls, but a modern look as well. |
|
2-Step Pre-Infusion |
|
By lightly soaking the coffee grounds with a small amount of water just before brewing, more of the coffee’s aromatic oils are drawn out, resulting in a delicious cup. The Gran Dama features 2-step pre-infusion, so you can always depend on an espresso that’s full of flavor. |
|
Easy Cleaning |
|
The Gran Dama automatically runs a rinse cycle through its brewing components on start-up and shutdown to warm up, and also to clean away any coffee build-up in the machine. The LCD display will also alert you when a decalcification cycle needs to be performed, so you’ll never forget. |
|
Large Water Reservoir |
|
The removable water reservoir on the Gran Dama 6600 has a capacity of 60oz, so you can brew plenty of shots before refilling. A water level indicator will keep you updated on the amount of water in the reservoir, so you’ll always know when to refill. |
|
Removable Brew Group and Dump Box |
|
For deeper cleaning, the brew group can be removed to be washed by hand, ensuring your espresso shots will keep tasting fresh and delicious. The dump box that holds spent coffee pucks can also be removed to be easily emptied and cleaned, and the LCD display will alert you when this needs to take place. |
|
Removable Drip Tray |
|
Few things are messier on an espresso machine than a complicated drip tray, but the tray on the Gran Dama is easily removable to be cleaned. The LCD display will let you know when it needs to be emptied, so you don't have to worry about checking on it all the time. |
