Independent summary

The exact EXAM440.55.G combines Rivelia’s two-hopper Bean Switch workflow with automatic LatteCrema Hot milk and sixteen pre-programmed drinks. Currys showed the grey model at £599 with free standard delivery, while the white EXAM440.55.W was £749.99 direct. It is the more convenient Rivelia route for daily cappuccino, flat white and latte drinkers, without stepping up to the larger Eletta Explore.

Best for

Households that want one-touch milk drinks and regularly switch between ordinary, decaf or different beans

Watch out for

Do 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.

Same-family decision · manufacturer stated

Which version fits your routine?

Rivelia EXAM440.35.B is the eight-drink manual-frother version; EXAM440.55 adds the automatic LatteCrema Hot carafe and expands the advertised menu to sixteen drinks.

The shared Rivelia name and 24.5 × 43 × 38.5cm footprint do not make the variants interchangeable. Milk workflow, cleaning, drink menu, weight and current price differ; the optional LatteCrema Cool kit is not included as standard with the recorded .55 machine.
