Philips has just launched a new coffee machine with a “conversational” virtual assistant to make sure your cappuccino is just right

• Philips Café Aromis is a premium coffee machine from bean to cup
• It has a menu of 50 drinks, including cold brew, plus hot and cold milk foam
• Its ‘conversational’ Barista Assistant tool adjusts brew settings for you and can be accessed via the machine or a mobile app

Are you looking for a coffee machine that will make your morning brew as good as your favorite coffee shop? The new Philips Café Aromis is a premium espresso machine that promises just that, with a menu of 50 different drinks (including cold brew) that can be customized using what Philips calls a “conversational barista assistant”.

You can access the Barista Assistant through the coffee machine itself or via the Philips HomeID mobile app. Follow the on-screen instructions and Barista Assistant will adjust the machine’s internal brew settings to create the flavor you prefer, using your chosen beans – with no barista experience on your part.
