Philips launches Baristina espresso machine in Malaysia

Philips introduced the Baristina, a compact bean‑to‑cup espresso machine for the Malaysian home market. The device automatically grinds, tamps and brews a fresh espresso or lungo in under 60 seconds, eliminating the complexity of traditional home espresso setups. It features a ceramic bean grinder with automatic calibration for different bean types and a single‑swipe portafilter operation.

To promote the launch, Philips partnered with four‑time Malaysia Barista Champion Jason Loo, who highlighted the machine’s ability to deliver café‑quality coffee with minimal effort, and actor‑host Sean Lee, who serves as the campaign’s lifestyle ambassador. A signature Gula Melaka Ube Latte recipe and a dedicated Baristina blend were also created for the debut.

The Baristina aims to blend professional‑grade coffee quality with everyday convenience for Malaysian consumers.
