20 hot and iced coffee recipes at the touch of a button

Our 20 recipes range from warming drinks like espresso, milky lattes and cappuccinos, right through to cooling iced coffees. With the Philips fully automatic coffee machine, we have calibrated our brewing system so even iced coffees have the same delicious flavour as hot drinks.

Silky-smooth milk froth with LatteGo system

With the Philips automatic coffee machine, our powerful cyclonic frothing technology lets you create silky-smooth milk froth the touch of a button, even with plant-based milk alternatives.

Fast, effortless brewing with QuickStart

No more waiting for your espresso machine to warm up. Our QuickStart function allows you to power up your machine and brew a coffee right away. Your Philips fully automatic coffee maker will heat up based on the selected recipe, so you can enjoy your coffee without the wait.

Enhanced flavour with our durable ceramic grinder

Bring out the full flavour of your beans with our hard-wearing ceramic grinder. Fine-tune the grind size using one of 12 settings, from fine to coarse.

Enjoy the perfect temperature, rich aroma and smooth crema in every cup

Our Aroma Extract system finds the ideal balance between temperature and aroma by keeping the water temperature between 90°C and 98°C, all while regulating the water flow rate.

Even more flavour thanks to the extra shot function

Enjoy more flavour without the bitterness by using our extra shot function. You can add it to any of our coffee recipes, except when using the pre-ground function.

Up to 5000 cups*** without descaling thanks to Aquaclean

Brew up to 5000 cups without having to descale using an AquaClean filter. It purifies water before brewing begins so your coffee tastes more flavoursome.

Save on water and energy usage with Eco Settings

Use one of five Eco Settings to reduce water and energy consumption, without compromising on coffee quality. Our 5500 series allows you to dim the main and cup lights earlier than the default time, use less water while rinsing, switch to standby mode more quickly or dim brightness.

Find inspiration and support on our app

Learn the ins and outs of your machine and discover new cafe-style coffee recipes on our HomeID app.

Select, customise and save drinks on the intuitive display

Our easy-to-use, intuitive display is your place to select a recipe and adjust the strength, coffee length and milk volume. Want to save your preferences? Save your drink in one of four user profiles.

40% quieter with SilentBrew technology**

Our patented SilentBrew technology reduces machine sounds so you can enjoy the experience of brewing aromatic coffee more. Using sound shielding and quiet grinding, our machines make 40% less noise than earlier models and come with a Quiet Mark certification.

Clean the LatteGo milk system in under 10 secs

With just two parts and no tubes, our milk system can be cleaned in under 10 seconds, in the dishwasher or under a tap. Philips doesn't offer automatic cleaning as it requires complementary cleaning.
