Miele CM 5310 vs Bellucci Latte Touch

Q: Is the CM 5310 better than the Latte Touch?

It depends on your priorities. The Miele CM 5310 excels for users who want compact German engineering and silence, while the Bellucci Latte Touch is the better choice if you prioritize Standard features.

Q: How do the grinders compare?

The CM 5310 uses a Steel Conical, whereas the Latte Touch features a Steel Conical. While both are high-quality internal systems, they are sealed components. To prevent clogging and avoid expensive repairs, we strongly recommend using non-oily, medium-roast beans in both machines.

Q: Which machine is easier to clean?

The CM 5310 uses a Removable brew group, while the Latte Touch uses a Removable system. Generally, removable groups (like DeLonghi) allow for manual rinsing under a tap, while fixed groups (like Jura) rely on automated tablet cleaning cycles.

Buy the CM 5310 if you:

Want compact German engineering and silence.
Appreciate the AromaticSystem for intense coffee flavor.
Want OneTouch for Two to brew two lattes at once.

Buy the Latte Touch if you:

Want a touchscreen interface at a value price.
Want one-touch cappuccino convenience.
Appreciate a modern design with a compact footprint.

Expert Verdict

"Choose the CM 5310 if you prioritize compact German engineering and silence. Pick the Latte Touch if the Latte Touch's features matters more to you."
