Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I descale my coffee machine?
The frequency of descaling your coffee machine depends on its usage and the hardness of the water. For hard water, it is recommended to descale the machine once a month, while for soft water, descaling every three months is sufficient.
What is the most effective method to descale my coffee machine?
Use a liquid descaler suitable for coffee machines to descale your device.
What is an espresso?
An espresso is a small serving of very concentrated coffee.
What is the shelf life of coffee beans?
The expiration date of coffee beans is indicated on the packaging and applies as long as the bag remains sealed.
How should I store my coffee?
It is recommended to store coffee in an airtight and clean container, such as a coffee canister.
How does the grind size affect the taste of coffee?
The grind size of coffee beans significantly influences the taste. A fine grind produces a more intense flavor, while a coarse grind will yield a milder taste.
What does it mean when a warning icon appears on the Philips 3300 Series EP3349 coffee machine?
If a warning icon appears on your Philips 3300 Series EP3349 coffee machine, it indicates a problem that requires your attention. Here are the steps to follow: 1. Check the drink icon lights. If they are flashing, it means the machine is heating or releasing air. Wait until all lights are on. 2. If all warning icons are flashing, reset the machine by unplugging it and plugging it back in. Before turning it back on, follow these steps: - Remove the AquaClean filter from the tank. - Replace the water tank, ensuring it is properly in place. - Check the pre-ground coffee compartment for any obstructions. Clean it if necessary. - Remove and clean the brewing group. - Turn the machine back on. 3. If the problem persists, it may indicate that the AquaClean filter was not properly prepared. Make sure to follow the manual for this. 4. If the lights continue to flash, the machine may be overheating. Turn it off, wait 30 minutes, then turn it back on. If the problem persists, contact customer service. These instructions are specific to the Philips 3300 Series EP3349.
How can I adjust the coffee aroma strength?
To adjust the aroma strength on the Philips 3300 Series EP3349, press and hold the aroma strength icon for 3 seconds when using pre-ground coffee. This setting is not saved, so you will need to do it each time. To prepare an iced coffee, fill a glass with ice cubes and place it under the coffee spout, then press the corresponding icon. You can then customize the drink. We suggest an aroma strength of 3. For the standby time setting, turn off the machine and hold the Calc/Clean icon until the lights turn on. Select the desired standby time and confirm with the start/stop button. To adjust the highest default setting of your drinks, note that the machine has three levels per drink: low, medium, and high. You can only modify the amount of the high strength. To change the coffee strength, use the grind setting button inside the bean container. The finer the grind, the stronger the coffee. There are 12 grind settings. We recommend waiting until you have made 100 to 150 cups before changing the settings. Adjust the grind only when the machine is grinding coffee.
What should I do if the Calc/Clean icon appears on the Philips 3300 Series EP3349 coffee machine?
If the Calc/Clean icon appears, follow these steps: 1. Turn off the machine by pressing the on/off button. 2. Remove the LatteGo or milk frother if necessary. 3. Empty the drip tray and coffee grounds container, then put them back in place. 4. Empty the water tank and remove the AquaClean filter. 5. Pour the entire bottle of Philips descaler into the tank and fill with water up to the Calc/Clean indicator. 6. Place a large container under the coffee and water spouts. 7. Press and hold the Calc/Clean icon for 3 seconds, then press the start/stop button. 8. The descaling procedure will begin, including a descaling and rinsing cycle. 9. Wait for the machine to finish dispensing the solution. 10. Rinse the water tank and fill it with fresh water up to the Calc/Clean indication. 11. Place the container back under the spouts and press the start/stop button again. 12. The rinsing cycle will last 3 minutes. 13. Wait for the machine to finish. 14. Once warmed up, check that the drink icon lights are on. 15. Install a new AquaClean filter. Using this filter reduces the need for descaling. If the descaling is interrupted, empty and rinse the water tank, refill it, and perform an automatic rinsing cycle. If the problem persists, consult the manual or contact customer service.
