Frequently asked questions

A carafe or automatic milk system makes cappuccinos and latte macchiatos at the touch of a button. A steam wand takes a little practice but is easy to clean. If you mostly drink espresso, the milk system hardly matters.

Rarely essential: it mostly saves your favorite drinks or tracks maintenance. The models in this roundup are easy to adjust right from the control panel.

Rinse the milk circuit after each use, empty the grounds container and descale as often as your water hardness calls for. A tube-free milk system, such as Philips LatteGo, comes apart and washes faster.
