Nespresso Lattissima Coffee Maker Review
The Lattissima enhances Nespresso's brewing with one touch to a new level. It can make espressos and lungo coffee in a minute or less and it can take the company's wide selection of capsules.
It is also easy to modify the machine's settings to make the exact drink you want. This is a great feature for busy households.
Easy to use
The basic black Nespresso machine is easy to operate and maintain. It is simple and minimalist in appearance and has a single button on top that controls everything from powering cleaning to brewing. It is easy to remove the lid, place in a capsule and click to begin the brewing. It is quick to heat up and provides a range of drinks, including a double espresso or 5-, 8- or 18-ounce coffees. It even comes with a steaming wand that can be used for making a delicious milk texture for your drinks. We love the small design and easy-to-use interface, but we found that this machine wasn't as rich a coffee or espresso as some models that are more expensive. It's also not as easy to recycle the capsules as some other machines we tested. This Nespresso wasn't the top pick in our side-byside test for these reasons.
Quick to Brew
The Nespresso machine can make one cup of coffee in around 15 seconds. The hot water from the reservoir is pumped through a pump that is able to penetrate the tiny holes on the top of the pod. It then mixes with the compacted ground coffee inside, and then drips into your cup. The machine made an intense, delicious espresso with a slight hint of bite when we tested it with Jones Brothers and Bestpresso coffee capsules. We also tried whole, almond milk and 2% and found that all worked well.
Easy to clean

It will also make the coffee you make taste better. nespresso pods machine is possible to clean a Nespresso with a variety of cleaning agents which include vinegar. However, it is recommended to employ a descaling product instead, as vinegar can cause damage to your machine.

Then you can use a nonabrasive fabric or sponge to remove any stains or residues.

After your machine has been cleaned, it's time to descale. You can follow the instructions in your user's manual to follow a specific procedure. Otherwise, you can create a DIY descaling solution with white vinegar or citric acid. If you are using vinegar, make sure that it's white vinegar and not balsamic or apple, as they are too aggressive.
