Your videos on the 3200 are the best I have watched. I just bought this machine and I have watched so many, yours by far explains how to use this machine is the best
I recently bought this and was looking for a good video on it and this video was amazing. I have not even received it yet and I already feel like I know how to use it. Seeing you guys pack up your old machines helped settle my anxiety about the purchase. Great video
I got mine today 11-30-21. Whenever you get yours, you will love it. I have been using a K cup for the past yrs. and even though i have enjoyed coffee. This machine takes my full beans to another level. Is like if during the brewing... it squeezes every drop of flavor. with the press and brewing pressure. I would drink cup after cup. But then i would not be able to sleep 🤣Did you get yours Master?. I Ordered through amazon and only took 3 days.
I recently purchased the same espresso maker and was overwhelmed lol. But, your video/tutorial on this made my life easier. Thank you for sharing this video.
Thx for the video! I just purchased this on Amazon prime day for $575 and have been watching videos all evening. This is the best video I’ve seen by far. 👍🏽
You guys are so wonderfully helpful and nice to listen to. Would be nice to hear a update. Just got this machine for my wife for her birthday, hope she'll like love too.
Thank you for this. I’m trying to learn my machine. I love it! One thing I do is put a small cup under the spot to catch the water that cones out during the cleaning cycle. It saves me from having to empty the tray.
Hi Guys, watching from SW France, and am going to treat myself to this machine as my Christmas present to myself this year. I have watched loads of vids on this machine and I have got to say yours is the best I've seen. I feel confident in using this machine with your demo and shall refer to it when I get my machine. Thank you so much for this. I have also told some friends here, they are getting one too. Your fame is spreading. Thanks again.
Greetings! from Montreal, Canada :) I LOVE coffee and I've wanted a good machine for a long time so, after watching your video you guys convinced me and I treated myself. What an Amazing machine!!!! I also made the Golden Rum Cake..lol ;) it's going on my favorite recipe list.. DELISH!!!!! Thanks! guys :)
Greetings! So glad you LOVE the machine as much as we do!! And you just reminded me that I haven't made that Golden Rum Cake in awhile - time to get baking!!!
Awesome. We just had to replace the o-ring a couple months shy of the 2 year mark. Also had to do a mandatory descale when we hit the 5,000 cup mark even though we always use the AquaClean filters.
@@lonestarguys How did you know when to descale? Is there a shot counter? My Jura keeps track of all shots. Wondering how you would know where you are at.
@@christerman There is an calc/clean indicator light on the main control panel that illuminates when it's time to descale. The machine tracks each cup and recommends descale every 5,000 cups.
@@lonestarguys Thanks for the reply. I decided to send mine back. The machine just doesn't make coffee in the way that I have gotten used to with my Jura E9 (purch 2008). My Juara for instance can tell me in an instant how many beverages I have made (currently sitting at 9,500). In the Lattego manual, it says you need to pull 100-150 shots before the grinder is broken in. How would you know how many you've done? Scratch pad?. I got the Lattego to simplify making our morning coffees and provide a solution for my wife as she finds the Jura a mystery. Don't get me wrong. The Lattego is an engineering marvel, but not suited to our needs. I do have a question for you,, though. After my initial espressos came out looking like dishwater, I started to research and it turns out this is a very common issue.

Some of them are from retailers like Seattle Coffee Gear so I am not surprised by their wanting to overlook anything that would discourage a sale, but did you have perfect results right from the get go?
I have the baby brother 1200 model and I too use the Lavazza super crema. Lavazza is very affordable and is the best tasting dark roast beans I could find that are not oily at all. Oily beans can be problematic for super automatic machines due to the grinder being integrated.
So many videos outhere and this is the best one. Great quality recording, No MUSIC. Uff i hope they make more videos of it lol. I am supposed to get mine next wk. Dec 3rd
@@lonestarguys I sure did. The one with the 12 options and the digital screen, cost like $,400 lol. I saw it for 8 hundred dollars plus, on site from overseas. But i bet that takes like 2 months to get it. So i chose the 3200 instead. If u have any recomended brands of coffee that is listed on amazon,, post me a link to buy. I have an Eight O clock bag that i have been using with an I Coffee Kcup with spin brew techonogy. By remington. But I coffee trademark disappeared from the market. This machine have served me for the past 3 yrs i would say. But is performing as it used to. I have been grinding full beans and using the kcup for any type of grounds. I have enjoyed the machine the type it has worked. But for sure, the phillips is at another league
Hi. Video is 🔥 I just received the same coffee maker. I see that used coffee in the container from where it should be thrown out looks like completely watery, but in your video it looks as I was expecting it to be. Do you have any suggestion on how to make it right?
Thanks very good review. The manual says dont add espresso beans because it can damage the grinder, then how can it make espresso? And it looks like the maximum setting on cappuchino makes really small cups ?
I just bought mine 2 days ago and I am loving it. I did see there's 4 other models but I am happy with 6 drink choices vs 12. Your very right its what you get at Starbucks. Do you have a follow up viedo? Thanks for the informative viedo I learned alot. Wishing you delicious coffee days! ☕
Thanks for going through the different coffee types! Super helpful! I have one of these coming on Thursday- but we chose the paranello wand because we like coffee with just a little bit of cream and wasn't sure how to do that on the lattego!
You're welcome! And congratulations on your new machine! I just got some Monin French Vanilla syrup and Monin Caramel syrup today for fancy lattes. Made a vanilla latte (with an extra shot of espresso, of course :) and it was DELICIOUS!! I'll try a caramel machiato tomorrow :)
The machine has an indicator light for the AquaClean filter. It is normally blue. When the light changes to orange you should replace the AquaClean filter and follow the process outlined in the instruction guide.
Fun video. After watching many reviews and thinking about for a couple of months, I pulled the trigger and ordered a Philips LatteGo system last night. Of course it immediately went to backorder-probably because of Mother’s Day-so I’ve got a few more weeks to live vicariously through videos. Thanks for showing the multiple drinks. I don’t think I’ve seen the difference between cappuccino and latte macchiato in other reviews. I’m hoping the LatteGo makes milk drinks simple enough that my husband can use it. He has been known to FaceTime me so I can walk him through the process with our current DeLonghi when I travel. Now that I’ve found your channel, I’ll have to explore your other adventures.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video. Sorry you have to wait a few more weeks for your new Philips LatteGo - it's definitely worth the wait though! I think your husband will find it very easy to use and master the cappuccino and latte macchiato quickly! We've had ours for a few months and use it multiple times a day - EVERY DAY!
Hi, I purchased Philips 3200 Lattego few days ago. I have set the temperature to maximum however milk coffee (latte ,cappuccino) are not coming hot.They are luke warm. Is this how it is in this coffee machine? Or I got a defective one?
You know since I asked this question I actually think this may be better in terms of maintenance given the ability to maintain the brew components and rinse. The hues needs maintenance annually to bi annually from what we were told at sur la table and that usually runs a couple hundred bucks. Whereas this is simply puked out and rinsed. Great review guys, we’re getting one.
I wouldn't recommend it. I'm sure Philips would've mentioned/highlighted that functionality and added it to the drink list the machine is capable of if it were possible. The small receptacle at the top is only for pre-ground coffee.
By the way to everyone. Some people are really smart and clever when using the 3200. I saw some comments on amazon that shows ways around it. To make a few more drinks that are listed on the real Expensive Digital screen one. Example for a Flat white. Its been said that you pick a double shot expresso by hitting the button twice. After that. Pick the pre ground option, and hit Latte. So the concept with the flat white with the expensive model. Is that the milk, is froth and dispense last. So for other drinks, people just stop the process before it grinds or using the pre ground option, to not waste any beans. Because with the latte option, it will grind a batch, after a milk froth cycle. So geniuses use the latte option with the pre ground mode. To by pass grinding. And just get the milk.
@@lonestarguys Yeah because apparently if you try to make a flat white after the double shot. By using the latte option. The machine will grind a batch after it dispenses the milk. Which it would be a waste. But if you used the pre grind option for the latte instead. After brewing a double shot. With the latte, under the pre-grind. It will dispense the froth milk, and since if you dont add a pre ground product in the front compartment. That cycle is pretty much waved. Maybe just water will come out. So you get that froth milk and just pour it on top of the double shot. Turning it into a reversed drink. And as far as the 8 o clock full beans coffee i have . Maybe the Phillips will get even more flavor out of it. Since will press it and purge it with pressure. Something the k cup wont do
Thanks for the video, I have juste acquired a 3200 series in France and my lungo coffee is light dark like caramel. The taste is bitter I tried 2 different beans (Italian and Guatemala). My grinder setup is 3. Do you know if this could be a machine issue or strictly coffee choice ? Thanks.
You're welcome! Hmmmm.... I'm not an expert but I don't think it is the beans/roast. Lungo coffee is made with twice as much water as a regular espresso shot and the longer brew length can result in a more bitter taste. I would try your beans with a single shot of espresso and compare it to the lungo coffee to determine if it's the beans/roast you're using. But keep in mind the below: from wikipedia: Lungo is a coffee beverage made by using an espresso machine to make an Italian-style coffee - short black with much more water, resulting in a larger coffee, a lungo. Wikipedia Uniqueness: A lungo is less strong, but more bitter, than an espresso, because the additional hot water passing through the ground coffee extracts components that would normally remain undissolved Hope this helps, Sylvain!
Hi, I just set my 4300 up yesterday. One thing i noticed is that there is water gathering into the drip tray even though I am making sure there is a cup underneath to catch the drinks. After around 10 drinks I have to empty it out, but the amount of water dispensed into the drinks is correct. Can you advise if the same thing occurs with your unit? I am concerned mine might be defective.
That happens with ours too. We tend to empty out the drip tray whenever we empty the used grind container and it's usually 3/4 of the way full. Not sure where the liquid comes from either - I think it's internal as the hot water is being forced through the ground espresso at high pressure and must result in some waste? If you empty it each time you have to empty the used grind container you should fine.
@@lonestarguys Thank you for your confirmation. Here I was going crazy thinking there might be a leak some place. I'll do what you suggested, emptying out the drip tray whenever I empty out the grinds container. :)
Hi. I just set up mine today. And yes, it happens with mine too. The water is from the machine firing hot water through the ground beans to make the coffee. If you check the grind waste right after you make the coffee, you can touch and see that it’s not dry to the touch, but quite wet and crumbly, and that the waste water come from the beans due to its brown colour.
Thanks, Wayne! Glad you enjoyed it. We got the metal cup and saucer holder from Amazon -ttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QYKJQ1V/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_50RQY9XQWK03XJTZ93PT
I enjoyed your video. I like that you thoroughly went through making each drink. Keep up the great work! I actually already purchased this machine and just waiting for it to arrive. Unfortunately they are behind on orders on the website where I purchased it (Seattle Coffee Gear) and I’ll have to wait until mid-February to try it out. Cheers!
Hey, thanks!! I liked Gail @ Seattle Coffee Gear's review on RUclips and that actually was the clincher in our decision to buy. Too bad you have to wait until mid-February but the anticipation will make it that much sweeter!
Thanks so much!! And congratulations on your new machine!! We use 2 kinds of milk (Lactaid 2% milk and Planet Oat Extra Creamy oatmilk) and both work well in the machine. Bought an extra LatteGo milk carafe directly from Philips so we wouldn't get confused :) I saw another RUclipsr recommend the Lavazza Super Crema whole bean blend and we like them so much we haven't tried anything else yet - even have them on an Amazon subcription to deliver every 2 weeks!
Thanks! Hmmm...we were just thinking about that! Yes, still extremely happy with the machine - 4 months of about 6 drinks per day and haven't had any issues. Stay tuned for a follow-up video!
It's fairly loud when it's grinding and frothing milk. For example, if you're standing next to it, you have stop talking until it finishes! It would wake me up if I were in the same room, but not in a different room of the house.
Decent review, our son is considering this unit but the 2200 Latte Go version. Do you find that at highest temp it produces a hot enough coffee. We are looking for a machine as well but am considering spending a little more to get better. Warranty is good w 2 years, just wondering if spending more will get one a better unit such as a Delonghi Perfecta or other option. Philips has their 4xxx and 5xxx models coming out shortly, wondering if they have improved a couple shortfalls of the 2200/3200 Latte Go's Have you had option to compare to some other super automatics in the 1000-1500 range. Assuming you did consider some other options, if so what were they? The price you mentioned is enticing for sure, I am referencing Canadian currency and the 3200 Latte Go in Canada is $950 on sale
Thanks! We set the temperature to the second highest setting and found it to be plenty hot for us. Price point and quality were big factors in our deciding on this model so we didn't really look at the 1000-1500 range machines. You might want to check out Seattle Coffee Gear's RUclips channel. They do many videos of head-to-head comparisons of the popular machines - might be helpful in deciding which machine to purchase. I saw a pre-release of the Philips 5xxx model which has a nice touch display and many more drink options than the 3200 but it didn't have any pricing info. Good luck in your search for a nice super automatic and let us know what you decide on!
Do yourself a health boost, install a RO water filter or countertop RO filter...all calcium,lime,toxins,bacteria,heavymetals,pesticides,fluoride(industrial waste) poisons,contaminants are 99% filtered. All my coffee,kettles,machines last very long with reverse osmosis water, I also have a whole house filter too, my geyser element lasts forever.
We were going to get one but first of all, it's too loud! The grinder noise is very annoying. Also the maintenance to it is excessive for a coffee maker (you have to remove the infuser and clean it). And its price is very high. Maybe in the future if they improve and get cheaper. Meanwhile, our manual espresso machine is just fine

Are these on par with jura machines?

The hues needs maintenance annually to bi annually from what we were told at sur la table and that usually runs a couple hundred bucks. Whereas this is simply puked out and rinsed.

Maybe you could put a video showing how to clean the brew group using coffee oil removal tablets?
Haven't needed to use those yet but will definitely video it when we do! Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi, I just set my 4300 up yesterday. One thing i noticed is that there is water gathering into the drip tray even though I am making sure there is a cup underneath to catch the drinks. After around 10 drinks I have to empty it out, but the amount of water dispensed into the drinks is correct. Can you advise if the same thing occurs with your unit? I am concerned mine might be defective.
That happens with ours too. We tend to empty out the drip tray whenever we empty the used grind container and it's usually 3/4 of the way full. Not sure where the liquid comes from either - I think it's internal as the hot water is being forced through the ground espresso at high pressure and must result in some waste? If you empty it each time you have to empty the used grind container you should fine.
@@lonestarguys Thank you for your confirmation. Here I was going crazy thinking there might be a leak some place. I'll do what you suggested, emptying out the drip tray whenever I empty out the grinds container. :)
Hi. I just set up mine today. And yes, it happens with mine too. The water is from the machine firing hot water through the ground beans to make the coffee. If you check the grind waste right after you make the coffee, you can touch and see that it’s not dry to the touch, but quite wet and crumbly, and that the waste water come from the beans due to its brown colour.
Hey guys, i got my Machine today. Ohhh my gosh. Coffee is at a total different level from. drip K cup
Yay! Enjoy!!
What’s the temperature of the milk when it comes out? I prefer hot milk for lattes. I returned my Jura because of the milk temperature.
Not sure about the exact temperature of the frothed milk but it's hot enough for us!
Love your video! I just ordered mine today from Williams Sonoma. Where did you get your metal cup and saucer holder?
Thanks, Wayne! Glad you enjoyed it. We got the metal cup and saucer holder from Amazon -ttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QYKJQ1V/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_50RQY9XQWK03XJTZ93PT
@@lonestarguys Thanks Guys! Did you get the largest, 3.4 oz. size?
Yes, we got the 3.4-inch size.
I enjoyed your video. I like that you thoroughly went through making each drink. Keep up the great work! I actually already purchased this machine and just waiting for it to arrive. Unfortunately they are behind on orders on the website where I purchased it (Seattle Coffee Gear) and I’ll have to wait until mid-February to try it out. Cheers!
Hey, thanks!! I liked Gail @ Seattle Coffee Gear's review on RUclips and that actually was the clincher in our decision to buy. Too bad you have to wait until mid-February but the anticipation will make it that much sweeter!
@@lonestarguys They ended up sending it earlier and I received it today!
That's awesome! Enjoy!!!
Love your video! Just bought this machine.. what kind of milk do you use ? And bean brand?
Thanks so much!! And congratulations on your new machine!! We use 2 kinds of milk (Lactaid 2% milk and Planet Oat Extra Creamy oatmilk) and both work well in the machine. Bought an extra LatteGo milk carafe directly from Philips so we wouldn't get confused :) I saw another RUclipsr recommend the Lavazza Super Crema whole bean blend and we like them so much we haven't tried anything else yet - even have them on an Amazon subcription to deliver every 2 weeks!
You guys should do a follow up video-
How has your 3200 fared after a year, any problems, concerns?
Or are you just as happy with the machine?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Hmmm...we were just thinking about that! Yes, still extremely happy with the machine - 4 months of about 6 drinks per day and haven't had any issues. Stay tuned for a follow-up video!
Did you make a follow up viedo sir?
Is it worthy to buy it? In my town there's a serious discount for 3241 model.
We have not regretted buying this at all. I believe it is worth it especially if you make 8+ espresso based coffee drinks per day like us!
@@lonestarguys Many thanks for opinion:)
I ordered lavazza! Cannot wait
Cool! I'm drinking a latte/machiato with an extra shot made with lavazza beans at this very moment!
How loud is it? Could it wake people in the morning?
It's fairly loud when it's grinding and frothing milk. For example, if you're standing next to it, you have stop talking until it finishes! It would wake me up if I were in the same room, but not in a different room of the house.
Really cool video
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Nice kitchen!
Hey, thanks!!
Nice bravo
Thanks!!
Decent review, our son is considering this unit but the 2200 Latte Go version. Do you find that at highest temp it produces a hot enough coffee. We are looking for a machine as well but am considering spending a little more to get better. Warranty is good w 2 years, just wondering if spending more will get one a better unit such as a Delonghi Perfecta or other option. Philips has their 4xxx and 5xxx models coming out shortly, wondering if they have improved a couple shortfalls of the 2200/3200 Latte Go's Have you had option to compare to some other super automatics in the 1000-1500 range. Assuming you did consider some other options, if so what were they? The price you mentioned is enticing for sure, I am referencing Canadian currency and the 3200 Latte Go in Canada is $950 on sale
Thanks! We set the temperature to the second highest setting and found it to be plenty hot for us. Price point and quality were big factors in our deciding on this model so we didn't really look at the 1000-1500 range machines. You might want to check out Seattle Coffee Gear's RUclips channel. They do many videos of head-to-head comparisons of the popular machines - might be helpful in deciding which machine to purchase. I saw a pre-release of the Philips 5xxx model which has a nice touch display and many more drink options than the 3200 but it didn't have any pricing info. Good luck in your search for a nice super automatic and let us know what you decide on!
Cool! :)
Thanks, Rodney Lee!

Do yourself a health boost, install a RO water filter or countertop RO filter...all calcium,lime,toxins,bacteria,heavymetals,pesticides,fluoride(industrial waste) poisons,contaminants are 99% filtered. All my coffee,kettles,machines last very long with reverse osmosis water, I also have a whole house filter too, my geyser element lasts forever.
Thanks guys for responding...I forgot the beans! So I’ll have to wait☹️
Oh, no! :(
Why did I do that
We were going to get one but first of all, it's too loud! The grinder noise is very annoying. Also the maintenance to it is excessive for a coffee maker (you have to remove the infuser and clean it). And its price is very high. Maybe in the future if they improve and get cheaper. Meanwhile, our manual espresso machine is just fine
Too easy. God meant for espresso machines to be done manually! And thou shalt not have sweetner in it!
BLASPHEMY!!
@@lonestarguys Amen!
You call LaVazza LavaZZaa lol what do you call pizza piZZA
LOL! Pardon my accent!
Why do you look at the camera like you just smelled a fart 😅
