Don't Ruin Your New Investment

Regardless of which machine you choose, both rely on internal grinders that are sensitive to oily beans. To keep your Philips out of the repair shop, stick to these non-oily selections.

Lavazza Qualita Rossa
The wake-up call. Because it has Robusta beans mixed in, it has way more caffeine than the others. Great for milk drinks, but can be a bit harsh for straight espresso.

A blend of Arabica and Robusta. Rich, chocolatey, and full-bodied.

How do the grinders compare? ▼
The 4300 Lattego uses a Ceramic Flat, whereas the 5400 Lattego features a Ceramic Flat. 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.
