Ceramic blade for Philips/Saeco coffee grinder
The ceramic grinder burr for Philips/Saeco (part no. 421944078641) is a grinding disc made from specialist ceramic that grinds coffee beans inside a fully automatic coffee machine. Customers most commonly search for it when coffee loses its crema, flows too fast and tastes watery, or when the grinder stops grinding evenly. If your original grinding burrs are worn, this is the correct replacement part to restore precise grinding.
Important — verify your model: before ordering, check the exact model designation and type number (e.g. type HD.../01 or EP...) on the rating plate of your coffee machine. The rating plate is usually located on the rear or underside of the appliance, or behind the water tank. This ensures the ceramic burr will fit your grinder correctly.
When does this part need to be replaced? (Fault symptoms)
This part typically fails when you notice one or more of the following symptoms:
- Espresso flows too fast, is watery, and has weak or no crema, even with the grind set to its finest position.
- The grinder grinds unevenly — part of the coffee is too coarse, part too fine, and the flavour changes with every cup.
- Adjusting to a finer grind setting no longer produces any change in flow rate or coffee taste.
- The grinder is noisier, grinds slowly, or you can hear beans "skipping" through it instead of being ground smoothly.
Compatibility: Which models is this part for?
This part is compatible with the following coffee machines:
Philips fully automatic coffee machines
- Selected models from the Philips EP and Philips HD ranges equipped with a ceramic grinder
Saeco fully automatic coffee machines
- Selected Saeco models with a ceramic grinder (e.g. the Incanto, PicoBaristo, Xelsis, Intelia, and Minuto ranges)
Selection note: the exact list of compatible models depends on the type number of your appliance. Because the same ceramic burr is shared across multiple Philips and Saeco models, please send us the type number from your rating plate before ordering and our technician will confirm whether this part is correct for your machine.
Original vs. compatible part
Ceramic is critical for grinding burrs: the ceramic material is hard and wear-resistant, retains its sharpness and grinding quality for longer, does not interact with coffee (transferring no unwanted tastes or aromas), and also dampens vibration and noise during grinding. When fitting, bear in mind that the upper and lower grinding burrs are separate parts — if you need to replace both, order two units. For correct operation, we recommend keeping the part clean and removing coffee residue regularly.
Delivery and returns
The part is in stock and dispatched from the EU within 24 hours; our expert technical support team (service technicians) will help you select the correct part. An unused and uninstalled part may be returned within 14 days under the statutory right of withdrawal.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find out whether this ceramic burr is suitable for my Philips or Saeco coffee machine?
The deciding factor is the type number on the rating plate (e.g. HD.../01 or EP...), which you will find on the rear or underside of the appliance, or behind the water tank. The same ceramic burr is shared across multiple Philips and Saeco models equipped with a ceramic grinder. If you are unsure, send us the type number and our technician will verify compatibility.
Is it enough to replace one burr, or do both grinding discs need to be replaced?
The upper and lower grinding burrs are separate parts. If both are worn, we recommend replacing them at the same time and ordering two units to ensure correct, even grinding.
How quickly will the part arrive, and can I return it?
The part is in stock and dispatched from the EU within 24 hours. An unused and uninstalled part may be returned within 14 days under the statutory right of withdrawal.
