Nespresso Lattissima Coffee Maker Review
The Lattissima is a Nespresso machine that takes brewing one-touch to the next level. It can brew espresso and lungo in under one minute, and it can also accept an array of capsules from the company.
It is also simple to reprogram the machine to brew the exact size beverage you require. This is a wonderful feature for busy households.
Simple to use
This basic, black Nespresso machine is simple to operate and maintain. It is minimalist in its simple design and only one button on the top that controls powering, rinsing brewing and more. Remove the lid, place the capsule inside and press to start making coffee. It's quick to heat up and offers numerous drink options, including a double-shot espresso or a 5-, 8 or 18-ounce cup of coffee. It comes with a steaming device to create a textured, cafe-like appearance to your drinks. While white nespresso machine love its easy interface and compact size however, we discovered that the machine doesn't perform as well as more expensive models in making rich tasting espresso and coffee. It's also not as easy to recycle the capsules as other machines in our tests. Because of this, Nespresso isn't one of the top choices for our test of side-by-side.
Quick to make a cup of tea
The Nespresso machine brews a cup of coffee in approximately 15 minutes. The hot water from a reservoir flows through a pump which penetrates the tiny holes in the top of the pod. The water is then mixed with the ground coffee, and drips into the cup. The machine created a rich, flavorful espresso with just a hint of bite when we tried it using Jones Brothers and Bestpresso coffee capsules. We also tried whole, 2% and almond milk and found that all performed well.
Easy to clean
It's important to clean the Nespresso machine regularly both inside and outside. This will help keep it running smoothly and ensures it's safe to use. It can also make the coffee you make taste better. You can make use of a variety of cleaning products to clean the inside of a Nespresso, including vinegar. However, it's recommended to employ a descaling product instead, as vinegar could cause damage to your machine.
To clean your Nespresso machine, begin by getting rid of all the pods, and washing the drip tray and capsule container. Fill the sink with warm water and add a few drops of dish soap. Let the drip tray and container soak in the soapy water for several minutes to break up gunk and stains. Rinse the drip tray and capsule container using hot water. Then apply a nonabrasive cloth or sponge to scrub off any residues or stains. After scrubbing the capsules and drip tray, rinse them again and let them completely dry before returning them to your machine.
After your machine has been cleaned, it's time to descale. Follow the steps in your manual for a specific process. You can also make your own DIY descaling solution using white vinegar or citric acid. If you're using vinegar, be sure that it is white vinegar and not balsamic or apple as they can be too harsh.
