Produces Rich Crema and Aroma
Insisting on bean-to-cup quality, the Exprelia SS brings Italian-style espresso home. With the touch of a button, it will produce true Italian espresso, with its signature dark color, rich layer of crema, fragrant taste, and intense aroma.
Saeco’s optional Aroma System pre-brewing cycle injects hot water into ground coffee to maximize flavor extraction. To further customize your espresso, you can use Saeco Brewing System technology to alter the crema and body structure of your espresso by turning a knob, even while it is being dispensed.
Fast, Precise Milk Frothing with Integrated Carafe
A simple user interface allows you to easily select what kind of beverage you’d like with one button–the machine’s integrated milk carafe will automatically dispense perfectly frothed milk directly into your cup. A double boiler with independent circuits means you can froth milk while brewing using either the carafe or a hot water wand and ensures proper temperature for each function.
Efficient Design for Easy Maintenance
The Exprelia SS features a convenient design that allows easy upkeep of the machine’s key functions. In particular, the location of the brew group at the heart of the machine allows for easy removal, rinsing, and reinsertion. Additionally, whether you’re refilling beans and water or emptying the coffee dump-box and drip tray, you’ll find all compartments directly accessible. Automatic cleaning and descaling cycles keep the entire machine, including the milk carafe, fresh between uses.
Philips Saeco machines switch off automatically one hour after use.

Great new Exprelia Philips-Saeco machine,
Finally Philips did what I was expecting: Design a new fully automatic espresso machine at Saeco, the originator of these machines.
The Exprelia is perfect in every aspect. What first strikes me was the silence of operation. Very low noise at every step, grinding, steaming, brewing and cleaning. Compared to my old very noisy DeLonghi Magnifica, it is day and night. The Exprelia is not only fully automatic in making all kind of coffee beverages and particularly cappuccinos, but also in cleaning the milk carafe and everything else. The little screen will tell you what to do at all time. The settings are very easy to adjust and there are plenty of adjustments for all tastes. I was a little apprehensive in buying this machine and be the first to review it, but I trusted not only Philips but also Amazon, both are great company caring a lot for customer satisfaction. Thanks for reading and please excuse my English since my mother tongue is French.
I will update my review in a few weeks.
UPDATE few months after:
Our summer home needed so much fixing that I had not too much time to play with my computer. Regarding the follow-up about my Exprelia I am sorry to say that it started to malfunction after 4 weeks and it broke my hearth to have to send it back. I cannot explain why suddenly the coffee grinds were going at the wrong place. The grinds, instead of falling into the brew group were filling up inside the machine to then appear in the opening to be used to pour ground coffee in order to use a different kind of coffee. I did not realize this right away. My cappuccinos were very weak and hardly tasted coffee. The grinds were continuing to accumulate inside the machine till one morning the machine was so full of unused coffee grinds that they came out like a little volcano out of the top of the machine. I tried to clean up the mess but the grinds were so impacted that it was impossible to take them out. I got a refund and till I decided what machine to get I started to drink my wife horrible coffee which we called in France “Sock juice”. Finally after a long analysis of all machines on the market I bought a Gaggia Academia. […]. To my surprise I noticed that this new machine has a lot of similarities with the Exprelia and I found out latter that Gaggia has been bought by Saeco and Saeco by Phillips. So they are all within the same family of automatic coffee machine. I will soon write a review about my Gaggia Academia.
