Thats a question I also have. By the video i would say philips.

That should be the main point when comparing machines - as well as temperature of coffee. Results of milk based drinks are too similiar.

While I know what you mean, I have to laugh at the wording. "The deciding factor might be the coffee" 🤣🤣

Always go for reliability

@@hazelnuts23 but delonghi have cheaper parts repair overall

I am also looking for one of the two. Which one did you end up with?

@@tymom9313 may I ask why you chose Delonghi and not Philips or any other brand?

@@rampatra after 3 broken delonghis, I ended up with the phillips 3200! Absolutely love it!

@@tymom9313 What broke on the Delonghi? I am waiting for Dinamica Plus to come back into stock. But 3 broken machines does not sound confidence inspiring…

Any problems with machine?

Yes. it halso have the water filter and the floating red advice that this video point only in the Philips. De Longhi all the way, I got it and that's a perfect machine.

i ordered 4300 and looking at dinamica plus... im torn..

Me too. looking either Delonghi magnidica S Smart or philips 2200

@@MsJsling Buyed 3 days ago the philips 2200 very happy with it. Coffe i have lavazza rossa. very good italian quality, perfect for ristretto or espresso. 🙌

I would go with lattego from Phillips because the app just works better, so you got options to create your own drinks, this way you have endless possibilities. But if you’re going with de’longhi, I would say get the manual one and buy any cheap automatic milk frother because the automatic one is double the price and the app is not reliable.

If you didnt get it already Denamica is current cheaper than philips on best buy atleast

Yes, phillips 2 times louder

I have the Philips 4300 replacing a Breville Youbrew which is probably 7 - 10 years old. I don't know the Delonghi, but the Philips is way quieter than my Breville at grinding - maybe half as loud.

Hi there! The closest thing to a "regular coffee" that the Philips makes is a lungo, which is a long espresso shot that approximates the flavor of a drip coffee by using more water with the espresso. To do this you'd pull one complete lungo, then replace the cup and pull another one. The best option is to use whole bean coffee in the grinder, and the machine will do the dosing, but there are instructions with the machine that tell you how to use the passthrough grinder and the appropriate volume.

ı have the same machine and the foam it makes is very thick and nice. ı think you need aim the wand to the side of the cup not the middle of it. ı have just made a coffee shot with this machine and it made a lot of nice and thick milk froth

I think u dont know how big Philips is. Philips is the owner of Saeco since 2009.

Yeah exactly

Thats not that dumb of a question. This machine compresses and steams the grounds to extract flavour, Generally it would be rather difficult to get enough tea in there for it to properly compress (without it becoming overly bitter) but the larger problem would be that tea isn't really supposed to be boiled and so the steam would make the tea rather bitter. (not to mention the fact that this method wouldn't give the water enough time to make a decent tea) But yeah if you want easy delicious ice tea, do a cold brew tea recipe.

ok never mind, David's Tea sells a version of tea that is designed for espresso machines. Im not sure it could work, but it is apparently a thing?

Since the way the machine brews coffee for coffee over ice (which they call true brew) won’t translate properly to tea even if you try this method. Since they are extracting a stronger and longer dose with less water as to not water it down and use water from the ice to provide you with the liquid. Best use can do is get hot water from the machine over lots of leaves and add the water concentration over ice ( trust me it creates best ice tea ! Use a gram more than what you would use for hot tea)

I have the Philips 4300 which is pretty much the same with an added milk foaming automation cup branded Lattego. I'd choose by which type of drink you make most often. I feel like the Delonghi has a slight edge for espressos - especially if you want larger volumes. It seems to pack the grounds more tightly. But for almost all others and especially milk drinks the temperature control is where Delonghi needs some improvement. If you want real push button and go functionality, I choose a Philips Lattego - mainly because of price difference for anything comparable - but it's still an expensive upgrade. Of every review I've seen, it makes the best foam of every truly automatic foamer out there. At $10 a day savings for 2 of us, it takes mere months to pay off the machine.

@@tgstanleyfineart thx mate!

They're americans. They have to make things harder ;)

This is AMERICA. We don't use communist measurements

@@johnwieler8530 I think you meant MURICA. FYI (fortunately not being smart does not hurt). Metric system was introduced in France (this is a country in Europe, no Europe is not a country it is a continent) in 1790s. Of course I am not accusing you of having knowledge about history, especially if it's not US history, so I will just tell you that communism in form that you're thinking about was born in 1848. So to make things easier for you - metric system was BEFORE communism. Oh and you're using in your MURICA the imperial system which is British, so it was developed by your colonizer... And it was developed in 1826. About Fahrenheits. Daniel Fahrenheit was born in Gdańsk, Poland - which used to be a communist country over 30 years ago, soooooo you're using communists degrees. Of course he was born way before communism, but you should not care about this, I mean, once communist always communist, right? In conclusion - don't use words that you have no idea what they mean (in deeper way than your friend Bob told you while drinking beer).

You must be a lot of fun at parties

@@benjaminwalker1288 Nice reply, very amusing. I think you would be good to meet at a party. I'm gonna try to remember the line "fortunately not being smart....." that's a classic.

Why?!
