    I discovered a neat trick: some people prefer to heat up their cups (especially for small ones like a ristretto or espresso), if you use the milk frother cleaner before making your drink, you could use the hot cleaning water to heat up your mug.

    Great review guys, I like how you show all the different drink options and most important - temperature. Great to hear you both talking btw, hearing both your opinions, makes for a good rounded review.

    Like this review. I bought mine about 6 years ago. Hadn’t used it for a while so this review saved to trouble of reading the manual. Love this maker. So easy to use. Has a good variety of cup sizes. The coffees are delicious. The only con is that the coffee is not piping hot. Perfect for me because I prefer my coffee cooler than most.

    Just got one of these, it was frustrating getting it set up because I had the "air lock" issue with the pump, but once I resolved that I am very satisfied with the drinks it is putting out.

    Brilliant review. Yes it was me that sent the request for the marks out of 10 to be included in the video. Thanks for doing it as it sums it all up nicely, looks like this will the start of something new!
    I use this machine at least twice a day and as I have said previously does everything you can ask for it with all but a few minor short comings.

    I just clean my machine after I have finished making all the coffees needed. I think this machine is an ideal one for the price, it gives you various drinks and looks stylish. I have just fractured my wrist at work so coffee is keeping me going! This machine has been easy to use and thank goodness as my husband has been making them 🤣 Thanks for the videos as alway and as I have time I think I will watch them all again😂

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah the Lattissimas are really easy machines to use aren’t they. Sorry to hear about your wrist but at least you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your coffees for a while I guess.

    Hey there , found this video most helpful as I have this machine and needed some tips on how to use it efficiently. I'm not completely impressed but it does the job so I think 6/10 is most fair in your rating

    I got one of these as a gift for Christmas. Mine does not drip thankfully and the coffee is hot. I turn it on and wait a min or so. More than the 25 seconds. It seems to hear it more that way. Small enough not to take up to much fun on counter. We have an older model a bit bigger and heavier. Thanks for review

    Thanks for the review. The instruction book is a bit disjointed so your video made more sense. I didn’t know the froth setting knob was removable for cleaning. I’m not sure about putting those frother things in the dishwasher so I hand wash mine in the sink with a little detergent. 🤗🤗🤗

    Good video. I have the red version of this which I haven't seen anywhere else. It may be a limited edition? The milk frother is temperamental. Mine has completely failed now. Getting a new one tomorrow.

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah that seems to be the common complaint with Lattissimas sadly doesn’t it, a broken frother ☹️ That or have heard they can tend to get stuck in descaling mode. Will try and Google your red machine as sounds interesting 👍🏼

  • @gertger7595
    @gertger7595 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great review! :) in the froth section, if you turn it to the LEAST froth, does it look like a version of hot milk? like for hot cocoa aor is it still quite worthy? Trying to choose from this and the Plus...

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, glad it helped! I'd say it's still quite frothy really from what I can remember.

  • @MartinHoltham-sl2rd
    @MartinHoltham-sl2rd ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Just an observation reference your review. When you made the latte you didn’t have the milk frother set to it’s minimum. You are able to turn the knob a little extra clockwise which turns off the frothing and just gives a smooth warmed milk.

  • @jacquelieno6789
    @jacquelieno6789 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I just bought this machine last weekend and I never tasted such a good coffee..if you like a proper Italian coffee with a thick foam of milk..this machine really does the job. It is very easy to clean and if you put the used capsule out in the litter downstairs..the machine stops dripping.
    Everything on this machine is great..you can easy clean the milk reservoir also put it in the fridge..you can instal your sizes of cups differently..so these are no criteria.
    You can choose for so many different tast of coffee so what you want bitter or sweet. I think it is terrible most people put so much water with coffee this looks and tasted like brown tea to me and has nothing to do with coffee.
    My only critical point is that for a real cappuccino you need first to put a ristretto and after you put than some foam on the top normally with a spoon so the milk does not mix with the coffee..but this machine does first the milk than the coffee..wel most people will not mind, but this is not an cappuccino.. It does tast anyhow very nice and also goes with Illy Segrafredo and Lavazza capsules,
    which to me are the best coffeebrands in the world.

    • @deniser7032

      Exactly ! I am Brazilian , and we as italianas also love great strong coffee. This machine is worth every penny.

  • @LadyLou89
    @LadyLou89 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The video mentions that there are no Ristretto options in this machine. The coffee machine is actually programmable and you can pre-program it to use different quantities of water and milk. That's because we all like our coffee differently. Coffee volume is set at 40 ml (espresso) by standard but can be programmed to as little as 25 ml (ristretto) up to 200 ml. The range for milk is 30 ml - 200 ml.
    Also, the milk froth can depend on the kind of milk used, temperature and even the position of the nozzle (Refrigerated skimmed or semi-skimmed milk is recommended in user guide)
    All in all I think it's a great little machine for someone, who doesn't have super high standards for coffee but likes a bit of special treat :)

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cheers for mentioning that 👍 It can be programmed for ristretto but was just meaning it didn't have a dedicated button for it, as that can be a bit of a bind for people who want to switch easily between ristretto and espresso. Think the Gran Lattissima has both of those buttons off the top of my head, so that could be an option for those who want both and we have a review of that machine on the channel for those who might be interested in it.

  • @VuLTn
    @VuLTn 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I love all your content mate! It's been a great help to me trying to pick out a machine. I appreciate all the honest reviews and that you take the time to show us everything.
    I was tossing up between the Essenza Mini + Aerocinno 3, the Lavazza Desea and finally, this one after i realise it kinda combines both those smaller machines into one. I think i might just end up sticking with this one for simplicity sake. Going to out to buy it in the next few days so lmk if you think otherwise based on your experience! Keep up the awesome content

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Cheers mate, glad the videos have helped. I've only reviewed the Nespresso machines to date but looking to review a few other brands going forward. My honest opinion is that I'd rather go for an aeroccino and seperate Nespresso machine than a lattissima myself, as just think the cappuccinos / lattes taste better as the froth from the aeroccino is more pleasant to drink as makes a nicer froth. Hope this helps but if you have other questions do let us know.

      @A2BProductions  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there. I also like my milk to be hot and have been happy with the Nespresso Creatista machines I've owned, as you can adjust the milk temperature on them and the hottest setting has been fine for me - especially the Crestista Plus and Creatista Pro. Hope this helps.

    @kpalmer4363 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks so much for your reviews. I’m buying my first ever coffee machine this week so it’s really helpful. So torn between this one and the Citiz and milk. I feel like this one would be better as a first because it looks so easy to make. But I know you prefer the coffee from the other. When you’ve only ever used a kettle and you want easy to clean and easy to use, would you say this one? Thanks so much

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi there, thanks for that. The aeroccinos are really easy to use to be honest so I wouldn't worry too much about that. The aeroccino 4 is also dishwasher safe like the frothers on the lattissimas, so I guess it just depends which one you prefer after watching them in use 🤔

  • @WannodsPlace

    Hi can you tell me what measurement the tallest cup can fit under the spout please?😊

  • @joffhall81
    @joffhall81 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A great review but overall I don’t think this is an improvement over the Lattissima+ that I currently own (in storage) and replaced with Delonghi cappuccino bean to cup machine.
    The main problem is the temperature of the milk based drinks and which are usually less than 60c once dispensed and not hot enough. it seems this revision continues this and still has the same issue with luke warm milk drinks.
    The temperature issue is something that Nespresso are asking Delonghi to program and condition into the Lattissima range as their Bean to cup version that I have dispenses a milk based drink at least 8c-10c hotter and at a more acceptable temperature but are both very similar especially in the way they dispense milk.
    The temperature thing was my main reason from moving from Nespresso pod machines to a bean to cup and although the new range of Nespresso machines do look great they still seem to have the same old too cool temperature dispense issue.
    Awesome review and very informative please keep up the great videos.
    Joff 👍👍☕️☕️

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cheers for the info Joff! Yeah the temperature of the milk is definitely an issue with this machine and will be interesting to see if any of the other lattissimas fair better. Don't know if you've tried either the Creatista Plus or Creatista Pro but the milk temperature on both of those Nepsresso machines is excellent and you can control it too.

  • @damhaugandreas
    @damhaugandreas 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    will u recomend Nespresso Lattissima One for new beginners like me, i love espresso, does it make good one ?

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would say the lattissima one has been designed for espresso or lungo drinkers who just want the option to have an occasional milk based coffee, without having to have a separate milk frother on the worktop. As for the espresso itself, there is plenty of choice in the espresso range on the OriginalLine machines and personally I prefer them to the VertuoLine, so it will all come down to whether you like the taste of Nespresso coffee or not.

  • @suelibraga9828
    @suelibraga9828 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thank you. I was actually looking for a good machine and for me one of the important thing in the coffee - and I think it’s for everybody - is the taste, but then the tastecoffee decrease the flavor due to an incremental of water coming in the milk , that would be not good for me

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah we agree with that, taste is the number 1 factor for us too 👍

  • @bigboundsy
    @bigboundsy 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hi mate, as you know I brought one after ur first vids!! After a month or so with it my only troubles are 1. The first cup is always like warm and not hot, and 2. When setting the the cup sizes I don’t know how much coffee and how much milk to use. Surely that defeats the object of having different options? Aren’t the different options just a different ratio of coffee and milk??!?!?

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi mate, yeah it’d be a lot easier if they set the cup sizes correct from the start wouldn’t it. Like you say the different cup sizes are ratios of milk to coffee but also supposed to be different froth levels too. Think Nespresso recommend using the lowest froth level for cappuccino and highest for latte macchiato, I’d also be using the lowest level for a latte but would like an even lower froth level for the latte myself. For a cappuccino 1 shot (40ml according to Nespresso) + 100 ml of milk seems to work when using an aeroccino and barista recipe maker and the Nespresso cappuccino cups are 180ml if that help to gauge things a bit. The latte / latte macchiato recipe glasses are 350 ml. Suppose trial and error and finding what tastes best to you is the best way to go about it but completely agree they should set it right to start with and more info given as to what froth level to use for each drink (can’t remember if it says it in the manual though) Totally agree with what you say about the heat too. Cheers for dropping back on to give your experience 👍🏼

  • @user-ju9sr9fx3n

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I personally would go for the Citiz and milk as prefer the froth consistency and think they’re more reliable long term.

    Hi I just got this as an Xmas pressie. Is this an older Nespresso machine? They don’t even sell it on there website anymore. I’m thinking of exchanging to a more modern one the Lattissima one or the gran Lattissima?

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah it has been out for quite a while. It's still a popular machine - sure it was on the website last month but may be out of stock now - but is certainly different in design to the other two you mentioned. Hope you get one you're happy with 👍

  • @brunamaia1412
    @brunamaia1412 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great video! In your opinion gran lattissima or touch? Which one is the best? It seems to be the size the only difference between them.

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Taking price into consideration I’d say the Touch. Less drink options than the Gran Lattissima and the frother holds less milk but it’s a nicely designed little machine and a lot cheaper!

    • @katiechoi9465
      @katiechoi9465 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, what about between lattissima one or touch? Do you think its worth getting touch instead of one?

  • @Tellyawhat4
    @Tellyawhat4 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    A friend made me a cup of coffee using this machine just this week and I loved it! Perhaps I'm not the coffee connoisseur that some are, but I really enjoyed this cup of coffee. Question though: does this machine "steam" the milk or merely froths it? Based on the temperatures displayed, it merely froths it, right? I currently have a Nespresso machine and separate frother which work great. How different is the Touch model to the regular machines? That cup of coffee did taste different (better), but maybe I'm just imagining this.

    • @LadyLou89
      @LadyLou89 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hey @Gloria. I'm assuming your question is if the machine uses hot milk or cold. It does heat the milk for you when frothing! Although 'warm milk' is accurate, as I wouldn't call it hot! :D

  • @adraf75
    @adraf75 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I am big fan of this model. Easy to make lovely coffee in the morning.
    Recently I noticed when relase the item (capsule goes into container) approx. 10-15 ml of water goes into container too. Tried to clean it. But nothing helped. Any advice please.;)

    • @A2BProductions
      @A2BProductions  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi there. Probably best to speak to Nespresso on that one I'm afraid, in case there's a fault with the machine. If you find an answer then please do share it with us, as it may help others with the same issue 👍

    Informative video, I chose the Citiz over this after deciding it would be better to get that (without milk frother) and then buying the Aerocino 4 separate.
    On a completely separate note, what is the correct way to make a Cappuccino with a Citiz and Aero4?! Milk or coffee first? How much milk? Every single video I watch on how to make one seems to be completely different and now even this one is apparently milk first then the coffee shot. I’ve even watched yours but I feel like I’m just making lattes in cappuccino cups!

Should have a review of the Lattissima Pro coming soon. Hope this helps.

In case it helps we do have more videos on the channel on how to choose the right Nespresso pod but personally would stick with an espresso 40ml pod for a latte with this machine even though I think Nespresso recommend a lungo pod on some of the latte recipes on their website when using an aeroccino. Just about finding a pod intensity or flavour that works for you. In fact would stick with an espresso shot for all of the drinks on this machine unless you specifically want a lungo. Hope this helps a bit but there are lots more videos on the channel.

      Hi so you can get re-usable nespresso pods so that you can use any time of coffee beans you like.

      It's a tough one due to the price difference. You could probably survive with the touch but you'll have to fill the milk and water up more regularly and also empty the used capsule holder more often. My gut says gran lattissima but it's close because of the cost.

    Just got gifted this machine. First use, too much milk froth, not much coffee. Milk straight from refrigerator, therefore coffee is lukewarm. Will require trial and error to achieve the perfect cup of coffee. I'm Australian, we like our coffee HOT, with a little bit of froth, not most of the bloody mug. My old machine was a Lattisima EN560B, which served me well for 10 years of daily use. Many of the design flaws in that model have been solved with this model - the milk container is much easier to clean, and different sized and different shaped mugs and cups can be easily accommodated. The off white colour would not have been my choice, white in a kitchen isn't great, I'd have chosen the black colour but this was a gift so it is what it is.
