The smart features in Philips’ range of machines manages all these variables while giving you the freedom to experiment and personalise the taste of each cup of fresh coffee in the comfort of your home.”

Where artisan coffee making meets innovation

Each machine features a range of intelligent and intuitive functions, carefully designed to help consumers achieve a perfect cup of coffee to match any mood with ease while also making cleaning and maintenance a breeze right from the first cup.

Freshly ground beans

Grind coffee immediately before brewing for fresh flavour with the durable ceramic grinders. Fresh beans are gently ground without risk of overheating, extracting all the best flavours and aroma to deliver a superior coffee taste for at least 20,000 cups. Explore the world of freshly ground beans, where you can pick any type of coffee beans that you fancy and get your desired grind size and consistency at the touch of a button – from ultra-fine powder to coarse grindings. To protect your coffee beans, the Aroma Seal – located on the bean container, ensures that the beans maintain their original aroma over time, while reducing the grinder noise.

Customised to taste

Pick your ideal fully-automatic espresso machine model to enjoy your favourite café-style coffee. Get a flawless cup every time with the high performance Thermoblock boiler feature that heats up water to the optimal temperature for every cup. The Aroma Extract system strikes an optimum balance between brewing temperature and aroma extraction by keeping the water temperature between 90 and 98°C, while regulating the water flow rate.

Enjoy the breakthrough LatteGo milk system in selected models that calibrates the optimum temperature for steam to heat and foam milk – mixing milk and air at high speed in the round frothing chamber for silky-smooth froth for milk-based coffees, while the Classic Milk Frother dispenses steam to prepare silky smooth milk froth in other models.

Each machine comes with flexible settings that easily allow users to adjust the strength and style of their beverage to suit their preferences, with a built-in memory to record the settings so users can choose it again with ease. There’s even a Powder Option to make full-bodied, delicious decaffeinated coffee at any time.

Effortless use and cleaning for everyday enjoyment

The machine features the patented industry-first AquaClean water filter system that ensures no descaling up to 5,000 cups with regular filter replacement1. Designed to improve the quality of coffee by purifying water, it also prevents scale build-up in the water circuit.

Meanwhile, the breakthrough two-part, no tubes LatteGo milk system can be easily disassembled and rinsed clean under the tap in as little as 15 seconds, making it the fastest to clean milk system ever2. For extra convenience, the LatteGo milk system, drip tray and coffee ground container is also dishwasher safe. The Classic Milk Frother, which comes in only two parts, is also easy to clean under the tap or in a dishwasher. Other features that facilitate easy cleaning include a fully removable brew group for easy rinsing under the tap.
