Despite the best pod coffee machines always being a popular choice amongst coffee fans, there's recently been a huge uptick in sales of bean to cup coffee machines.

Described as making the 'perfect' brew, the Philips 5500 Series Latte Go has a huge array of features that make it an impressive machine.

With a range of 20 different hot and iced coffees to choose from, it has a LatteGo milk system that transforms various types of milk and plant-based alternatives into the best possible foam. Users can also easily adjust settings for intensity, coffee and milk length.

Just like the De'Longhi Rivelia, the 5500 Series Latte Go lets you set up to two user profiles that store your customised recipes. This allows visitors and guests to enjoy a coffee exactly the way they like, without changing yours. There's also an extra-shot feature which adds powerful flavour without the bitterness.

The QuickStart function allows you to power on your machine and brew a coffee right away, meaning you'll no longer have to wait around for things to heat up.
