Nice video. If you'll do more automatic coffee machines in the future, try some from Krups, De'Longhi or Jura (this might be on the higher end, but from what I read some years back, it does better coffee than most automatics).
@@TealTechie They use larger coffee, pucks, resulting in a more intense drink. Some machines can even adjust their grind nearly find enough for a traditional espresso. Those, however, are the more expensive ones.
my grandma has this machine and i still can believe how easy the brew group is to clean and you should try i it on a columbian single roast from my own coffee roastery i started when i was 13 years old (im 14 now)
I just wanted to take a moment and say that your channel and videos are an absolute delight to watch and are extremely informative and relaxing at the same time.
Thank you for this super-clear How To video. I just bought a Philips 2200 machine and wanted to use up some ground coffee I have left over, before switching to beans. You didn't cover it here, and the instruction leaflet that came with the machine didn't explain how to make a coffee with ground coffee either. In another RUclips vid and on the Philips website, I discovered the way to do it is with a "magic long touch" on the coffee strength button, and the light switches to the measure cup symbol. I thought I'd share that here for anyone else interested 🤓👍
Also dont put too much coffee into it, if you do, it will discard all the coffee in order to protect the brew group from overloading with coffee. Only put one spoon ( the one that comes with the machine)
Got the 3200 latte go for my cousin when it first came out and it's still going strong. She loves it as well as any guests she has over love it. I really wish they had an interchangeable nozzle so you could pop out the latte go mechanism and pop in a steam wand
Thanks so much for this Tom. I have had this machine for a couple of months and you’ve provided with so much info to get my coffee better. I’m just so lazy reading instructions! Never noticed the option to reduce the water percentage on the espresso! Must get some new glasses! Great stuff!

This clip arrived at the perfect moment, when i drink my morning cappucino😅 You just blowed my mind! I had fee years ago an 3200 with a panarello, i tried to steam milk like you with it, but i did not succeed. I succeed this just with an Magnifica S from Delonghi because it had that plastic steamer longer. But i learned to do latte art with the Dedica, i learned a lot from you. Now i have an 5400 Lattego and i steam milk for latteart just with an french press, the lattego sistem just doesn’t steam it for my taste, my wife say that for her is perfect🤣 but…my OCD tell me something else. If i saw this video before…i woldn’t sell the 3200, even if i had some errors with the sensors(the machine itself probably had some problems) Thanks Tom, i really waited for someone to do this kind of things with a machine from Philips. Happy coffee drinking!🙋🏻♂️🥳
Thanks very much for posting your experience with the machine! Yes, you can get better texture milk if you do it manually. The nozzle is short, so it does take a little practice. And, you need to use a small milk picture, either a 350 mL or 400 mL.
Ich besitze die Maschine seit zwei Jahren und hatte immer das Problem, dass die Milch zu schaumig und nicht silky genug ist. Ich hätte aber nie dran gedacht, dass ich den Panarello abnehmen kann. Wusste garnicht das das einen bestimmten Namen hat und dachte es muss dran bleiben. Vielen Dank für diesen großartigen Tipp!
I've recently bought this machine and all want it it was a video like this where an actual expert like your self has a go with it. There are lots of user videos but they are not as informative. Your work really appriciated. And of course i got subscribed. Especially getting a silky textured milk was a big question for me and you explaned plenty. One question: is there way to replace panarello with a normal one maybe?
Thanks for your feedback! I haven't taken this machine apart, so I don't know about replacing the steam wand. It does ok though, when you just steam with the rubber nozzle. Cheers!
Just found your great channel as I’m searching to upgrade. I had been doing an Aeropress for a while now cuz I’m cheap but also cuz I still like the way it tastes but I think it’s time for something more automatic. I’ll probably end up watching A LOT of your videos today while sipping on some coffee, LOL
This was an extremely helpful video - lovely to watch and insightful, I have been looking for exactly this so I can decide if I should get this machine or not. Thank you!
For anyone interested, I returned the coffee machine. IMO the extraction was very poor. I usually drink from a moka pot and this came no where near the quality of a moka pot.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner Tom, how many grams in a puck would you expect for a decent cup of coffee? By decent I mean comparable to a mokka pot. Cheers in advance.
I'm glad I came to this review, otherwise I would not have known how incredibly loud this machine is. An important consideration for people with neighbors or people who are the earliest riser in their household.
I found Philips 3200 from e-recycle bin from 2019. It got one main issue, main water pump silicone hose had rub through and caused pump to make huge noise. Fixed it with new hose. Second problem was steam valve sticking, fixed with replacement valve from e-recycle De'Longhi coffee machine. Next problem was brew unit inlet seals leaking, fixed with silicone lubricant. Next thing leaking was latte go -unit. Latte go does not really drip to coffee cup, De'Longhi is better. Start/stop button does not work correctly every time. In total they make good coffee, but build quality and design is way much better with De'Longhi Dynamica.
i came across this video while doing homework on this machine, considering to buy it unless there is recommendation for another machine around the same price budget !
The LatteGo system is certainly easier, as you just press a button. But you can get pretty nice microfoam if you just use this model and remove the panarello. And practice.
Tom, you are truly amazing and make it so much easier to understand the love for coffee. I love my delonghi 885 and followed all your videos on the accessories and mods. My coffee and espressos have never tasted better. I have a question about your advice on coffee grinders. Right now I'm manually grinding my beans but would love to invest and buy a grinder but do not want to break the bank. Looking for something in the 200 to 300 range budget friendly with the best performance. TIA Jimmy
Hi Jimmy! Which market are you in? I can suggest the D40+ as a single dosing grinder: ruclips.net/video/MywWDmMnZVc/видео.html The Fellow Opus is also nice, but workflow is annoying. Baratza ESP is fine, and so is SGP. Have a look here for more options: kit.co/tomscoffeecorner/grinder-suggestions
@TomsCoffeeCorner Thank you so much, Tom! Love the review and really like that grinders style, too! I checked it out, and the white model is out of stock. I went with something similar, and I believe they are manufactured by the same company. I decided to purchase the Turin SD40 since they had a white model. The only difference I think is the stepless vs. the SD40 has a lock. Maybe you can come up with a mod for the SD40 Turin to make it stepless. Appreciate you and your videos. I didn't like the breville smart grinder pro too much after I had borrowed it from my friend, but it's a nice option, just not for me.
I have a gaggia classic pro and this machine I bought for the office, compared to a manual machine the espresso tastes very watery but that’s because I’m drinking coffee from 2 different machines everyday so I can tell the difference but I think if you only have this machine it’s satisfactory. Note a manual machine would be a very big step up from this bean to cup machine.
I got this machine this weekend and what I would like is if anybody could tell me if you should turn the grinder stick left or right to make it grind stronger coffee 😅 the symbol on it don’t make any sense for me…
Hello, firstly thanks for the video but i have question in my mind that i struggle with. In my country Delonghi machines much more expensive than the philips series and i could buy 5400 cheaper than the magnifica evo, in that circumstances do you still consider to buy delonghi or philips is enough for the job? If you say it is a huge difference, i may cancel my order to buy delonghi or do you have any cheaper recommendation for me?
How can a use the machine to make with pre guided coffee. I have put the guided coffee in the section.how much coffee for one cup and where the coffee is end up to be discarded?
Thanks for the amazing video! I just purchased this machine and feel much more comfortable with it. Quick question...the beans in my unit don't seem to funnel to the grinding area, I need to physically push them there, do you (or anyone!) notice that as well? Any fix to it? Thanks again!
@@TomsCoffeeCornerthe water ratio to grams of coffee is very high for an espresso. I have a2200 any recommendation on how to have a more intense espresso ( aroma level is full, water level is low) coffee grind level is at 4 but not sure if lower is better?
Fun review, thanks! I like the idea of setting bean + water quantities independently before hitting the go button. My Delonghi allows variation of the bean amount, but setting the water volume is very iffy and I don't think it remembers the settings very well. Good enough for cappuccino, though, and for espresso I use the Sage. In fact, when I get to the last 100g of a bag of beans I dump them into the DeLonghi hopper and open a fresh bag for the Sage. Re water filter cartridges, here in France I can get bottled water that has 3 mg calcium/litre, which is probably better than any cartridge can deliver. Tastes vile to drink but is fine for coffee. My machines say "descale me" about once every 6 months to a year.
I wouldn't underestimate those catridges, they can give you a no measurable hardness in water. The preference for calcium is very high compared to sodium, which is the ion they deliver in exchange of calcium, and you can regenerate them with a concentrated sodium chloride solution.
Great review. If you had to recommend this model (Philips 1200) or the Delonghi Magnifica S, which are about the same price. What model would you choose?
Hmm, probably still the Magnifica S. It has a steel burr, instead of the ceramic ones here. I think it can also grind anyway for 10 grams, not just 7, as with the Philips. Cheers!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner is the steel bur better? phillips was marketing "ceramic" for "doesn't blunt over time like others"? PS. Looking at this/delonghi superauto vs Bambino Plus + grinder - later is on the pricier side.. I drink mostly espresso/dopio in caffees, instant coffee sadly at home ... How is the taste from superautos compared to bambino+grinder in your opinion?
Hi! Really loved the video! I just boight a philips 2200 Lattego and i have some issues with the coffee pucks.. they are really watery even though i did 20ish coffees.. do you have any ideas what could cause that?
Hi! I have an important question would be happy if you can answer. 8:26 you show the advanced cappucino by frothing the milk with smaller bubbles / more silky texture. can I do the same method you do with the lattego version? Thanks!
Excelent video as always! I have been using a eureka mignon grinding machine with a delonghi dedica machine for over 2 years, but the process of using it measuring etc is getting kind of annyoing, but the coffe i get from is is amazing (15g - 40ml bottomless portafilter, i got the idea from you), how great a coffe a machine like this provides compared to that (we mainly drink cappuchino)? Im really considering getting a machine like this! Thank you!
@@zsoleszgamer6271 I’d get a Delonghi to be honest. The Phillips make too weak of drinks, once you’ve had proper espresso. Consider a Magnifica Evo or even better a Dinamica Plus. Cheers!
Well, what I can say is that the largest does you'll get out of this machine is 7 grams. Not sure about the caffeine - that's also dependent on how much robusta vs arabica is in the blend.
My parents has this exact machine, haven't really tried tasting the espresso made with that machine cause I wasn't a fan of coffee back then. Now I am, and I want to know the difference on the espresso taste compared to the delonghi ecp 35.31 manual espresso machine? Cause I'm planning to get one due to the positive feedback on your delonghi ecp 3420 videos. Thanks!
I have zero inteterest in this machine, yet I still watched the video 😂. It was interesting.😊. Question :Where did you get the mug with the face from? Nice design.
You can! Im using same machine for 1 Month, That machine gives lovely crema (On Espresso and Coffee Modes), Fressnes was very high thanks to ceramic grinder, Also, LatteGo is very optional, Steam Wand does amazing job, Even milk was out of fridge.
Hi, I recently purchaed this machine. I like a larger cup of coffee. I followed the steps in the manual to program this however it seems to want to stop before I press the play/stop button to confirm the setting. Any suggestions?
@@TomsCoffeeCorner nope - i bought a "Krups" again. Those do signal to be "de-calced?" and cleaned about every few weeks? (maybe depending on the use-frequency). no, i dont get paid - its just the truth! i am a technician - i fear machines which think they are smarter than me (even if they sometimes are). i am a strong believer, that machines serve me - not the other way around.
been using a 3200 latte go around 3year+.. it's convenient that matter with simple push of button although just purchase myself ecp3420 due to finding it interesting to see the flow of coffee using a non pressurised portafilter especially from your video 😂
hey there i have a quick question , is the cleaning so tedious ? i want to get 2200 or another automatic machine instead of a manuel one but they say cleaning it becomes annoying after a while , what do you think about it ?
Aynı makineyi kullanıyorum, paranız yeterse tavsiye ederim ama asagıda arkadasımız belirtmis, Kahve boyutu daha büyük veriyor diye. Uzmanı değilim böyleyse Delonghi alın derim ama Bu makinede üzmez emin olun. 6 Numarada güzel kremalı Espresso veriyor, aynı zamanda Taptaze veriyor. Süt köpürtme nozuluda Süt dolaptan cıksa bile sıcacık yapıyor. Temizliğide zor değil, Haftalık suyun geçtiği blok ve Demleme ünitesi, Aylık kireç cözündürme.
@@excellerateurbreath That one looks the same as this one. The machine itself is OK, but the pucks are too small for me. I’d suggest considering a DeLonghi Magnifica Evo or Start.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner best buy has the 800 for about half the cost of the others. Do you think just making two coffees per coffee could work, if that makes sense? Thanks for your feedback!!
Thanks for your review! I have a question about the milk, when i try to do the method without the extender of the steamthingy, the milk doesn't foam at all. Not even a slight bit, i tried multiple times with different milk and also different durations of steaming. It get's a bit silkier, but there's no foam and the milk just dissapears in the espresso. Any tips on what might go wrong? Thanks!!
Hallo Tom, ich habe ein paar Fragen an denen ich verzweifel. Ich habe eine delonghi 9155 und habe mir den siebträger von normcore geholt. Was brauch ich um jetzt einen guten Espresso zumachen noch? Habe gelesen der mitgelieferte sieb soll nicht gut sein? Lohnt es sich den verlinkten zukaufen Precision DL2TH26E? Und würdest du auch den Temper von Normcore empfehlen dazu? Bisher habe ich nur das Standard Equipment von delonghi verwendet und bin damit nicht wirklich zufrieden 😢 An Bohnen liegt es nicht es gibt eine kleine Rösterei bei mir im Umkreis wo ich sehr frische bohnen herbekomme die ich auch luftdicht aufbewahre, jedoch ist es schade diese tollen bohnen zuverschleisen ohne einen tollen Espresso hinzubekommen, ich hoffe du kannst mir helfen, liebe Grüße 😊
Hmm, der mitgelieferter Sieb von Normcore ist in Ordnung, der IMS ist besser. Aber du kannst auch gute Ergebnisse mit dem Normcore auch erzielen. Lade mal ein Video hoch, und ich schaue es mir an. Noch was, wiegst du deine Dosierung? Das ist wichtig. Gruss!
@@TomsCoffeeCornerhallo, vielen dank schonmal für die Antwort. Ich würde probieren es zu filmen und ein Video davon hochladen. Ja ich wiege es ab es sind immer circa 16 Gramm im Sieb

Great review. If you had to recommend this model (Philips 1200) or the Delonghi Magnifica S, which are about the same price. What model would you choose?
Hmm, probably still the Magnifica S. It has a steel burr, instead of the ceramic ones here. I think it can also grind anyway for 10 grams, not just 7, as with the Philips. Cheers!
Thanks for your quick response.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner is the steel bur better? phillips was marketing "ceramic" for "doesn't blunt over time like others"?
PS. Looking at this/delonghi superauto vs Bambino Plus + grinder - later is on the pricier side.. I drink mostly espresso/dopio in caffees, instant coffee sadly at home ... How is the taste from superautos compared to bambino+grinder in your opinion?
Hi! Really loved the video! I just boight a philips 2200 Lattego and i have some issues with the coffee pucks.. they are really watery even though i did 20ish coffees.. do you have any ideas what could cause that?
It doesn't compact the pucks all too well for me. Delonghi does better with this.
Hi! I have an important question would be happy if you can answer. 8:26 you show the advanced cappucino by frothing the milk with smaller bubbles / more silky texture. can I do the same method you do with the lattego version? Thanks!
Hi Tom can you please help regarding how to get microfoamed milk with lattego :/
And you can change level of grinder(inside box).
Any tips to make less foamy and more silky milk with lattego system?
Not much you can do there. Use cold, higher fat content milk. That's about the best you can do.
are all those three models 2200/1200/800 same ?
Is it worth to buy this instead of delonghi dedica in terms of coffe quality ?
Yes, I'd say so. But the Dedica is more work than a superautomatic.
Excelent video as always! I have been using a eureka mignon grinding machine with a delonghi dedica machine for over 2 years, but the process of using it measuring etc is getting kind of annyoing, but the coffe i get from is is amazing (15g - 40ml bottomless portafilter, i got the idea from you), how great a coffe a machine like this provides compared to that (we mainly drink cappuchino)? Im really considering getting a machine like this! Thank you!
@@zsoleszgamer6271 I’d get a Delonghi to be honest. The Phillips make too weak of drinks, once you’ve had proper espresso. Consider a Magnifica Evo or even better a Dinamica Plus. Cheers!
Thanks for the tip! So i guess those machines use more coffee/cup than this one, I will look into theese!
Sold
I am using 1200 series. Any guesses how much avg caffeine is there 1 shot of espresso ? I use Peet’s Dickerson blend.
Well, what I can say is that the largest does you'll get out of this machine is 7 grams. Not sure about the caffeine - that's also dependent on how much robusta vs arabica is in the blend.
My parents has this exact machine, haven't really tried tasting the espresso made with that machine cause I wasn't a fan of coffee back then. Now I am, and I want to know the difference on the espresso taste compared to the delonghi ecp 35.31 manual espresso machine? Cause I'm planning to get one due to the positive feedback on your delonghi ecp 3420 videos. Thanks!
The ECP makes real espresso, while the Philips makes more of a Nespresso type drink - too small of a dose, and not ground fine enough imho.
@@TomsCoffeeCornercan you not change the grind in the beans compartment to have them ground finer?
@@bloodhoug82 unfortunately the finer setting is not fine enough.
Is it possible to make ristretto with this machine?
I'd say no. Max dose here is 7 grams, so you'd have to stop it at 7 grams yield for a ristretto. I don't think it can be stopped that quickly.
What is the grind setting on the machine?
What grinder setting is best?
I have zero inteterest in this machine, yet I still watched the video 😂. It was interesting.😊. Question :Where did you get the mug with the face from? Nice design.
Lol, thanks! My wife got the cup for me at a local furniture store. It's this guy: amzn.to/3RxDGyX (affiliate link)
@@TomsCoffeeCorner Tell your wife thanks! This will make a great gift for a coffee loving friend of mine 😃😄
You can! Im using same machine for 1 Month, That machine gives lovely crema (On Espresso and Coffee Modes), Fressnes was very high thanks to ceramic grinder,
Also, LatteGo is very optional, Steam Wand does amazing job, Even milk was out of fridge.
Thank u
Which coffee maker do u recommend me? I need grinder, milk frothing and dripped coffee not only espresso…
I recommend Starbucks Komodo Dragon coffee beans ☕️
I have found this machine on sale for 1888 dkk approximately euros 253,08 euros is it worth the purchase?
@@yoonisabdullahi4712 For that price it’s fine. I like the Magnifica Evo better, which sometimes also comes on sale. Good luck!
@@TomsCoffeeCorner Is it worth it to throw an extra 100 dollars onto the price and get the Magnifica?
Hi, I recently purchaed this machine. I like a larger cup of coffee. I followed the steps in the manual to program this however it seems to want to stop before I press the play/stop button to confirm the setting. Any suggestions?
Hi can you tell me if the Phillips 2200 or the 3200 series are compatible with Alexa?
They are not.
cleaning just becouse of turning it on --> no go, thx for the info
But they all do that.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner nope - i bought a "Krups" again. Those do signal to be "de-calced?" and cleaned about every few weeks? (maybe depending on the use-frequency).
no, i dont get paid - its just the truth!
i am a technician - i fear machines which think they are smarter than me (even if they sometimes are).
i am a strong believer, that machines serve me - not the other way around.
@@marionocnik9378 You don't have to decalc this because of the water filter.
i think it is interesting that the steam milk is better without the wand but yes i do agree that there is a whole lot of froth with the panarello 😂
been using a 3200 latte go around 3year+.. it's convenient that matter with simple push of button although just purchase myself ecp3420 due to finding it interesting to see the flow of coffee using a non pressurised portafilter especially from your video 😂
hey there i have a quick question , is the cleaning so tedious ? i want to get 2200 or another automatic machine instead of a manuel one but they say cleaning it becomes annoying after a while , what do you think about it ?
Delonghi mi veya Philips mi hangisini öneriyorsun? Yardimci olurmusun
Delonghi. Philips' coffee pucks are much smaller.
Aynı makineyi kullanıyorum, paranız yeterse tavsiye ederim ama asagıda arkadasımız belirtmis, Kahve boyutu daha büyük veriyor diye.
Uzmanı değilim böyleyse Delonghi alın derim ama Bu makinede üzmez emin olun. 6 Numarada güzel kremalı Espresso veriyor, aynı zamanda Taptaze veriyor.
Süt köpürtme nozuluda Süt dolaptan cıksa bile sıcacık yapıyor.
Temizliğide zor değil, Haftalık suyun geçtiği blok ve Demleme ünitesi, Aylık kireç cözündürme.
Is the 800 model any good
@@excellerateurbreath That one looks the same as this one. The machine itself is OK, but the pucks are too small for me. I’d suggest considering a DeLonghi Magnifica Evo or Start.
@@TomsCoffeeCorner best buy has the 800 for about half the cost of the others. Do you think just making two coffees per coffee could work, if that makes sense? Thanks for your feedback!!
GRAZIE !
@@ogof56 Prego!
Thanks for your review! I have a question about the milk, when i try to do the method without the extender of the steamthingy, the milk doesn't foam at all. Not even a slight bit, i tried multiple times with different milk and also different durations of steaming. It get's a bit silkier, but there's no foam and the milk just dissapears in the espresso. Any tips on what might go wrong? Thanks!!
Nice video but you don't mention nothing about the grinder setings you have ...
Shoot, I missed that point! I had it set on three out of 12. I feel like a finer grind, might result in a slightly higher pressure extraction.
Hallo Tom, ich habe ein paar Fragen an denen ich verzweifel.
Ich habe eine delonghi 9155 und habe mir den siebträger von normcore geholt.
Was brauch ich um jetzt einen guten Espresso zumachen noch?
Habe gelesen der mitgelieferte sieb soll nicht gut sein? Lohnt es sich den verlinkten zukaufen Precision DL2TH26E? Und würdest du auch den Temper von Normcore empfehlen dazu? Bisher habe ich nur das Standard Equipment von delonghi verwendet und bin damit nicht wirklich zufrieden 😢
An Bohnen liegt es nicht es gibt eine kleine Rösterei bei mir im Umkreis wo ich sehr frische bohnen herbekomme die ich auch luftdicht aufbewahre, jedoch ist es schade diese tollen bohnen zuverschleisen ohne einen tollen Espresso hinzubekommen, ich hoffe du kannst mir helfen, liebe Grüße 😊
Hmm, der mitgelieferter Sieb von Normcore ist in Ordnung, der IMS ist besser. Aber du kannst auch gute Ergebnisse mit dem Normcore auch erzielen. Lade mal ein Video hoch, und ich schaue es mir an. Noch was, wiegst du deine Dosierung? Das ist wichtig. Gruss!
@@TomsCoffeeCornerhallo, vielen dank schonmal für die Antwort. Ich würde probieren es zu filmen und ein Video davon hochladen. Ja ich wiege es ab es sind immer circa 16 Gramm im Sieb
