After 558 drinks were dispensed, it was finally time to replace the filter. We have very hard water. So it's all the more amazing that the water filter lasted that long. In my video I am guiding you step by step throught the
- maintenance procedures
- how to change the water filter
- decalcification
00:00 - Welcome & exchange water filter
06:24 - Quick rinse & cleaning of LatteGo milk unit
09:52 - Drip tray & coffee tray
12:24 - Descaling
24:10 - Brewgroup cleaning & maintenance
In the video I am saying that the grinding unit can be taken out for maintenance. Sorry for the mistake! It's only the brewing unit!

Your unit is not available in the USA. I have the ES3200 LatteGo and have used it for just over a year. Thank you for posting the unboxing video. It was helpful to me as a guide because I needed to re-box my machine to send back to Philips for warranty service. I wish you the best of luck and hope you get years of reliable service out of your new machine. Mine has been nothing but a headache and is always requiring interaction to clear a red light and sometimes all three red lights. This happens nearly every day we use it. The only good thing I can say is that Philips customer support has been exceptional so I am grateful for that at least. Also, be careful with the milk container. We always washed ours by hand, but after a while it started leaking milk from the bottom as taking in apart multiple times to clean weakened the latch on the bottom. Philips did replace it for free but told me that part is not a warranty item. Once my unit is refurbished and returned I'll be looking to replace it if it starts acting up again.

I am aware that the milk unit is an item that I will have to replace once in a while because the rubber will wear off over the time. I bought this machine keeping in mind that all parts that will need service or that might be wearing off over time are replaceable by myself at a very reasonable price. My old coffee machine needed a service for cleaning and maintenance which cost me 320 Swiss Francs every year. You weren’t able to take the brew group out by yourself and I wasn’t able to buy replacement parts. All had to be done by a specialist. If something like what has happened to you occurs whit mine I will create a video about it. Hopefully you will find a solution with yours.

There is a status information in % which is shown on the lower left side of the touchscreen. When it hits 10% it keeps on reminding you every time you turn on the machine that the Aquafilter has to be exchanged soon. So you still have time to buy one if you haven’t already done so.

The noise is much less as the machine doesn't have any contact now with anything. The pads absorb every vibration. Amazon: Sorbothane Halbkugel but other sites are cheaper, but that's what I used. It works under every noisy device.

If you have such a problem, having a hole in the injected plastic part you immediately ask for exchange. The other cause might be that they simply haven’t emptied the tray often enough.

If you use ReverseOsmosis/Distilled/UltraFiltered water with the aquaclean filter inside water container...you will never need to descale ever.....Only the cleaning tablet is needed to get rid of excess oils from brew unit holes. Tip Only use Medium or Light Roast beans as they are less oily, then use max hotwater tempreture on Light Roast, Medium hotwater temp on Medium Roast. Enjoy.
