Gail: it’s so satisfying to hear you say your signature phrase - “let’s make a drink.”

Gail you are still the best presenter, thanks for the current info. :)

Gail rocks the coffee machine reviews. She cuts to the chase, gives a real opinion, and hits the areas of real concern.

Gail, you're a champ. Best review I’ve found. Told me one of the most important things about these machines , that the coffees hot. Sold me on philips.

Nice video which may have saved me a thousand bucks. Genius idea to compare these two. Most people wouldn't think of it given the differing price points.

Thank you Gail!

Thanks Gail 🌷

Gail is so clear and easy to understand. No waffle and no favouritism. Other KZfaq presenters please note! Just one thing, any chance you could give the quantities in Metric as well as US measurements? It would make things easier to understand for us Europeans!

Gail is the Coffee Wonder Woman of KZfaq in my book!

Great job Gail.

Gail, for the Philips one, what’s the temperature of the hot water, is it hot enough for black tea? Thanks for another great review!

The extraction time on that Miele had to be TWICE the Philips (almost the same as manual draws)... was the taste really that close?

On the Philips, what is the difference between the Coffee and Americano setting? I know Americano is espresso plus hot water, so what does the Coffee setting do?

what is the coffee taste like compared to the Sage Touch ?

i'm trying to locate the part number for the seals to the "6150 percolator" does anyone have a link? the owners manual just shows the percolator at number for but no part number for the seals....

the ease of use let me chose Philips 3200 LatteGo for my in-law father, my kids to make coffee drinks for themselves......it is in the morning, you would not have to fight the machine how to make a proper coffee!

There's something about Gail that makes me want to immediately trust her expertise. And I don't even need a coffee machine.

I don't think you can adjust the temperature on the fly, that's the button for the amount of milk, no?

Are the Philips 3200 and 2200 the same size? or is the 3200 bigger as far as counter space?

The Phillips is brilliant. No issues with temperature etc. Not sure if it was mentioned the grinder is 100% ceramic which is excellent for longevity and consistency.

I always fill my water reservoir with Brita filtered water. In this case do I really need an additional philips water filter?

Can you program the 3200 to do Café Latte's instead of Latte Macchiato?

Gail you are amazing 👍

Hi, I just bought LatteGo and even on a lowest setting, it has A LOT of foam. How do I reduce amount of foam?

Will the Philips do a Flat white?

Was going to be interesting to see a video comparing lattego with terra kaffe machine

Quick question Gail i noticed when you were making the cappuccino on the LatteGo the craft was leaking water. Is that normal or was the milk container not properly seated? If it wasn't seated properly and the problem goes away then I'm sold

miele is double price anf premium brand, like Mercedes-Benz, Philips is regular brand, half miele price, like regular car, VW, both are good, depends on your budget and brand preferability, I bought just now the Philips Latego, can't wait until it arrives ☺️

Thx a lot for review ( mostly for Miele). But it doesn’t not have too many sense for comparing of that machines. When Philips can give you 10-11 grams coffee, and Miele 16 grams. Miele gives you really good espresso ☕️ and as a result better cappuccino, latte , latte macchiato etc. From my perspective more reasonable competition ( if we are talking about ~same quality of espresso for less money), could be with Nivona 756 or Melitta Passione Ot / Latticia Ot. And off course if we ignore price , then Miele vs Jura. Of course, if it is not a advertisement of Phillips .

Your pros and cons concluding the video might now be tipped heavily to the Philips side with the new 4300 model. The new 4300 model addresses some of the missing features. Thoughts?

A 6ounce shot is possible?

Question: does the Philips machine allow one to dispense milk without coffee? IOW, a "milk portion" like the Miele?

i am wrong or the milk system is dripping water behind carrafe?

Anyone with knowledge, what's the best grind setting for the Lattego? I've only run about 75 espresso shots thus far. I like espresso, Americanos, and drip coffee. What's the best ratio of aroma setting to water for drinks seen at coffee shops? So, then is the espresso x2 large 5.25oz, essentially 5 shots?

A thousand dollars difference! Is it worth it for the Miele?

I took a look at the Philips 1200 and 2200 in a store this weekend. It seems very flimsy. Do you really think the machine is robust? Several people on amazon said they loved the machine, but a few people said it broke after a month. Does the Miele give the impression that it is robust and less flimsy? I admit I really really like the user interface and milk system of the Philips.

What cup is Gail using?

The only quibble I have with the Philips is it's a bit noisy, and somewhat sloppy while it's working. The Miele operates more smoothly, and it should for more than half the price of the Philips. But my biggest thing is the temp of the drink. I had to return a Jura (with a competitor) because I'd have to microwave my drink after every pour. If you all can truly vouch for the fact that either machine produces a good "HOT" (not scalding obviously) milk drink, then I'll go with the less expensive machine.

Literally buying the Miele only because of Gail

I noticed the cappuccino on the Phillips didn’t separate.

11:06... Said no pimp ever

Nardo grey woudl be much better looking than white or black!

also those milk spouts on that container get so gunky and unsanitary. always have to clean them. get the miele. 600$ off at besbuy right now

looks like you can have 2 side by side cups with that silly milk container

That Philips looks like a no-brainer except for that 8 second extraction. There is no way that is properly extracted.

I’ve heard too many problems from Philips Saeco machines. Go for the Miele. You pay more for a solid machine, for reliability and for peace of mind in the long term.

Why do You mispronounce brand name MIELE is so easy - at the end is E and You should pronounce it like E used in word "E lephant"
