Bean-to-cup · record 91% complete

Philips Series 3300 LatteGo

A lower-priced one-touch bean-to-cup machine with six drink options and a two-part automatic milk carafe.

Why it qualifiesA £349.99 route whose recorded menu includes iced coffee alongside hot drinks and LatteGo milk.
Recorded from£349.99
Width24.6 cm
Depth43.3 cm
Trade-offThere are no user profiles and the 43.3cm depth needs checking carefully. Philips' SilentBrew wording is a manufacturer comparison, not our own noise measurement, and independent drink, cleaning and reliability tests are pending.
Verified delivered price£549.99Currys · checked 22 Jul 2026Why this route: Selected for stronger current evidence (100/100 versus 90/100). The lower-priced route is £200.00 less but has weaker model, stock, freshness or delivery support. Affiliate status is not used in this choice.

Bean-to-cup · record 93% complete

De'Longhi Rivelia LatteCrema

A compact automatic-milk bean-to-cup machine with sixteen drinks and two interchangeable 250g bean hoppers.

Why it qualifiesA £599 route with three recorded iced drinks; the optional Cool carafe is a separate purchase.
Recorded from£599
Width24.5 cm
Depth43 cm
Trade-offDo not mistake this .55 automatic-milk model for the cheaper .35 manual-frother Rivelia: the interface, milk hardware and drink count differ. At 24.5cm it is fairly narrow, but the 43cm depth and access to its 1.4L tank still need checking. Bean switching is guided rather than instant because beans below the removable hopper must be brewed or ground away. Run the carafe CLEAN rinse after milk use, dismantle it regularly, hand-rinse the removable infuser monthly and budget for optional water filters and descaler. The optional LatteCrema Cool kit is a separate purchase. Independent taste, temperature, noise, energy and reliability tests are pending, so no CoffeeScore is published.

Philips Series 5500 LatteGo

A one-touch bean-to-cup machine with 20 hot and iced recipes and a two-part milk system.

Recorded from£649.99
Width24.6 cm

Bean-to-cup · record 93% complete

De'Longhi Eletta Explore

A premium one-touch bean-to-cup machine with more than 50 hot, cold and rapid cold-brew-style recipes, plus separate hot and cool milk carafes.

Why it qualifiesAn £899 route with separate cool-milk hardware and under-five-minute Cold Brew-style manufacturer claims.
Recorded from£899
Width26 cm
Depth45 cm
Trade-offThis is a large, deep and maintenance-heavy convenience machine: allow for its 45cm depth, access to the 1.8-litre tank and storage for two milk carafes. The under-five-minute Cold Brew figure and café-quality language are manufacturer claims, not independent testing. Run the carafe CLEAN function after milk sessions, dismantle and wash the carafes regularly, hand-rinse the removable infuser at least monthly and allow roughly 40 minutes plus rinses for descaling. The separate ECAM452.67.G is not the same model. Independent taste, temperature, noise, energy and reliability testing is pending, so no CoffeeScore is published.

Common questions

Before you use this shortlist

How were the products in “Bean-to-cup machines for iced coffee and cold drinks” selected?

Every candidate must meet the published rules: A current UK bean-to-cup record with a documented iced or cold drink mode; The exact cold workflow remains named; Manufacturer timing and café-quality claims remain labelled; No cold-drink quality rank without comparable tests. Affiliate availability is not an inclusion rule.

Is the first product the best one?

No. This is a transparent database shortlist, not a tested quality ranking. The declared ordering rule is: Lowest recorded item price first. Recipe count and the word cold do not prove equivalent extraction or taste.

Are the prices live?

Prices are dated UK observations rather than a guaranteed checkout quote. This shortlist was reviewed on 2026-07-24; delivery, stock, colour and promotions can change.

Does Home Coffee Index independently test every machine?

Not yet. Independent CoffeeScore results are published only after comparable testing. Manufacturer dimensions and features remain labelled as claims unless independently verified.
