Nice of BestBuy to actually mention that it's not BPA free. Even Delonghi website doesn't list it in their specs. After seeing your question I became concerned so I contacted Delonghi. Here is their reply: Thank you for your recent contact to our Customer Service Center. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. Only the plastic parts that are not in contact with water or coffee are not BPA free. De’Longhi is an international brand, and the health and safety of our customers is paramount concern. All materials within De’Longhi brand products have been carefully designed and evaluated in order to guarantee high performance, reliability, and safety. We want to reassure you that all parts intended to be in contact with food of the De’Longhi Coffee Machines EC680 Dedica you are asking for are food grade and tested for applicable requirements. The parts in contact with food of De’Longhi Coffee Machines EC680 have been selected, starting from raw material that do not intentionally contain BPA. There are different kind of plastic resins in contact with water and coffee in models e.g.: - Water Tank is made in Styrene-acrylonitrile resin (SAN) - Steam Milk Frother is made in Polyacetal resin (POM) - Filter Holder Base is made in Polyamide resin (PA66) all these have been tested for BPA content and, based on the outcomes of that, we can reassure you that they do not contain BPA.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This company is not being transparent or forthcoming. The easy two questions it could answer now: 1) prior to what model year did their main plastic water container contain BPA; 2) exactly what BPA-plastic pieces remain? Needless to say, I won't hold my breath. [email protected]
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There is a plastic insert in the portafilter and it can be removed, there are several youtube videos on this process. I do not know if this is where the BPA material is located.
