Product Description


Manufacturer's Description


Love Your Coffee, Your Way
Introducing the Philips Saeco range of Espresso machines, designed to help you achieve your perfect coffee at just the touch of a button. There's no need to learn the skills of a barista, we'll bring the barista to you in the form of these stylish bean-to-cup machines. Whether you're looking for an espresso shot to kick start your day, or a latte to help you relax and unwind, Philips Saeco delivers in-cup excellence every time.
The Philips Saeco Exprelia are the first fully automatic espresso machines for home use to be honoured with an in-cup quality label, thanks to the adoption of a careful and dedicated internal process focused on respecting the Espresso Perfetto's and Cappuccino Perfetto's sensory parameters, as defined by Philips Saeco and certified by Centro Studi Assaggiatori Italian Tasters, the most advanced Italian consultancy company in sensory analysis.
Advanced Features for the Perfect Cup

SBS: patented intelligent adjustable crema and body structure
Philips Saeco exclusively allows you to adjust your espresso's intensity, altering the crema and body structure as it is dispensed. Simply by turning the knob you can prepare the crema exactly according to your taste. A little knob that makes a big difference.

Full bean-to-cup customisation
All aspects of your drink exactly how you like them: Choose your favourite coffee blend and adjust coffee length, intensity, temperature, crema and body structure until they all meet your personal taste perfectly.

Double boiler for instant steam
A double boiler means your Philips Saeco is always ready to produce both coffee and steam, so no need to wait for your favourite drink.

Integrated automatic milk function
With the integrated milk carafe, all you have to do is fill it with milk and select your favourite coffee drink. Your drink will be served in seconds - milk, espresso ; froth - directly into your cup. The advanced milk management system includes two automatic rinsing cycles, and for thorough cleaning the whole carafe can be easily dismantled.
Built for Convenience

Automatic cleaning and de-scaling
Easy to use includes easy maintenance: Thanks to the automatic cleaning and de-scaling cycles, you are guaranteed the best quality drink every day as well as increasing the life of your machine.

Removable brewing group
The brewing group is at the heart of every fully automatic coffee machine and as such should always be kept clean. A task that doesn't get any more convenient than with a Philips Saeco: remove, rinse and re-insert - done.

One touch beverage selection
Whether you want a cappuccino or an espresso, with the immediate beverage selection you can enjoy your personally customised drink at the touch of a button.

Ergonomic in day by day operations
Philips-Saeco is synonymous with convenience: refilling beans or water, emptying the coffee dump box or the drip tray, all compartments are easily accessible.
Passionate About Coffee? How to Enjoy Your Espresso

Fascination for the Nose
Before you take a first sip, inhale. With a good espresso, you should notice a rich ensemble of aromas interacting in harmony, plus a toasty note that comes from roasting. After tasting, exhale. Look for a lasting aroma - of butter, warm bread, puff pastry, and chocolate.

Inspiration for the Eyes
With espresso, the crema says a lot about the quality. Look for a smooth, sometimes streaky, hazel brown crema about 3-4mm thick. The crema should last a while- to seal in heat and the aroma.

Delight the Palate
The temperature of espresso itself is crucial. When it first touches your lips, it should be around 65C. You should notice a pleasant, slightly velvety sensation below your palate, too.

A Feast for the Tongue
People can perceive five different tastes: sweet, sour, bitter, salty and savoury. After your first sip of espresso coffee, you should taste a range of nuances in all five directions.
