EssentialDescaler
Limescale is what most machines die of, and vinegar attacks the seals. A liquid descaler declared suitable for espresso machines does the same job as the maker’s own branded fluid, usually for less.

Philips
The cheapest bean-to-cup that simply does the job
€279
Too few measurements yetWe have only recently started tracking this price. Once we have measured enough days, this will say whether now is a good moment.
Philips' entry model, and for years the one people buy when they want to leave filter coffee behind without making a project of it. Beans in, press a button, done.
The milk frother is a classic wand you work yourself. Anyone who mostly drinks cappuccino finds that tiresome within a month and would have been better off going up to a LatteGo — anyone sticking to espresso and black coffee misses nothing.
Who for: Anyone who wants to press a button and drinks their coffee black.
Always sorted by price, never by commission

Milk
EssentialA stainless jug of around 600 ml is the difference between milk that froths and milk that boils. The shape of the spout decides whether you can pour anything with it.

RecommendedFor flushing the brew group. Coffee oils settle where you cannot reach, and a bean-to-cup with a cleaning programme expects a tablet to go with it.

Maintenance
RecommendedPhilips counts a considerably longer descaling interval when this filter is fitted. Replace it on time: a saturated filter does nothing, and the machine keeps counting regardless.
