In this post you will find an in-depth analysis of the Philips 5400 super-automatic coffee maker as well as opinions from different users that can help you get an idea of said machine and whether it is (or not) ideal for you.
The Philips 5400 belongs to the series of fully automatic espresso machines. In short, we call this type of machine “Super-automatic”, which is the fusion of an espresso machine with a grinder, and can often include (as in the case of the Philips 5400) a milk function.
One of the points to mention is that it is not always available on Amazon . Sometimes the demand for this machine is such that they run out of stock (it is not a €20 coffee maker of which they make a lot, but the Philips 5400 is a high quality coffee maker with a more complex manufacturing process. of which there is not so much in storage).

Main Features of the Philips 5400 series super-automatic coffee maker
Let’s start by talking about your grinder.
We have seen in the introduction that the Philips 5400 is a super-automatic coffee machine, so it has an integrated grinder.
This grinder has high quality blades that will prevent deterioration over time and will maintain the same type of grind for years.
Something that I mention in all the posts about super-automatic coffee machines and in the Philips 5400 series was no less, is that you should only use roasted coffee, avoid roasting it since that mixture of coffee and sugar can damage the blades.
This coffee maker gives us the option to adjust its grinder to up to 12 different grinding types and in this way obtain the coffee that best suits us.
The Philips 5400 range from Philips has what the brand calls LatteGo.
We could define the LatteGo system as a milk tank with a lid and spout that allows us to prepare milk drinks automatically.
If you have used other super-automatic coffee makers or espresso machines, you will be used to having to pour the milk into a separate tank, add volume with the coffee maker’s frother and then pour it into the cup.
With the LatteGo system of the Philips 5400 you forget about that . From the machine menu you select the type of milk drink you want to prepare and it will automatically take care of the process.
If we go into a little more technical detail, its power of 1500 watts will ensure both perfect coffee preparation and that the grinder does not get stuck or give us problems.
Previously we mentioned the Philips 5400 grinder, but going into “technical details” as I said, they assure us that it lasts around 20,000 coffees without damaging the blades.
Design and style of the Philips 5400
The design and style of the Philips 5400 super-automatic coffee machine combine elegance and functionality in an exceptional way.
It has a modern aesthetic that makes it adapt to the environment and also does not give the feeling of “junk” but quite the opposite, it is even a pleasure to have it as decoration.
The LatteGo system is really nice, if you buy or have this coffee maker you will see how you don’t want to store it.
Yes, this container can be stored when the Philips 5400 series is not in use, but the truth is that aesthetically it is cool and you are going to leave it in place no matter what.
The touch screen, which we did not talk about in the previous point, gives it an extra. From it we can choose and adjust all the parameters of our cup of coffee. You can choose between aroma, flavor, intensity, etc.
Everything in a very simple and intuitive way.
Although the Philips 5400 series is a super-automatic coffee maker and therefore is going to be large (it weighs about 8 kilos), its design is quite compact , meaning that we can place it in almost any space.

Final summary on the Philips 5400 series super-automatic coffee machine
To finish the post we can make a summary or final evaluation of this coffee maker.
There really are no negative aspects to review. The materials are incredible, the design is very beautiful, the coffees it prepares are truly wonderful and the LatteGo system saves us a lot of work and allows us to make almost any type of coffee that uses milk.
Obviously all this has to be paid for.
Super-automatic coffee machines have a high price in themselves, and this one, being Philips’ high-end one, is not far behind.
It is true that it is an investment for a long time. If there are no setbacks (the Philips 5400 series does not usually cause breakdowns) you will be using the same coffee maker for years and enjoying coffees that are amazing, but that’s it, you have to get used to the idea that it is not an espresso machine . of €60.
