About this deal

The Gran Lattissima comes with a stand to elevate the platform where your espresso cup would go. This is a thoughtful feature since it'll help keep your espresso hot.

Flat milk recipes include the café latte and the flat white. However, given the nature of the Rapid Cappuccino System, there will be no micro-foam and the milk texture between these two drinks will be the same. So these drinks might feel a bit 'off'. It also leaves you with the possibility of purchasing re-usable Nespresso capsules, allowing you to buy and grind whole espresso beans. Fresh coffee beans will be much tastier than the coffee grounds contained in capsules, possibly for months. In terms of espresso drinks, the Gran Lattissima does well thanks to its powerful 19 bar pump. It also has the advantage of being part of the Nespresso OriginalLine. OriginalLine Nespresso machines are compatible with third party capsules, widening the selection of coffee types you can brew.Fully automated espresso machines like this one have inner components where the milk circulates. So a thorough cleaning is very important to avoid your machine becoming a thriving bacteria colony. Compared to other super automatic espresso machines that can brew espresso and steam/froth milk, the Gran Lattissima is considered a compact machine. It is only 7.9 inches wide and only 10.8 inches in height. So it should fit on most kitchen counters and under most kitchen cabinets.

This is why after preparing any coffee drink that contains milk, the "Clean" LED light will turn orange. This is telling you you need to run the rinsing process. To do so, place an empty container under the milk dispenser, and turn the froth regulator knob to "Clean". The cleaning process will start and end automatically.

You can also create a custom drink if the recipes by De'Longhi do not suit your definition of a particular drink. This is in contrast to slightly less automated machines with steam wands, such as the Nespresso Creatista Uno. There is a higher workload when preparing your coffee, as you need to manually pour the milk, but there will be less cleaning to do. By the way, in our opinion, this coffee maker looks better in white. White also hides better dust and smudges. Also note, that this machine is easy to use, but the setup process can be time consuming. For example, it involves disassembling the Rapid Cappuccino System, washing its numerous components, drying them, and then re-assembling them. While this coffee machine is expensive, it's a worthwhile investment for those who enjoy milky coffees. It has intuitive controls, a useful automatic shut-off function (after nine minutes) and it was speedy, so you won't be waiting long for your morning coffee. Key specifications

If your drink requires milk or foam, hold the button again for at least 3 seconds and then release it once the desired amount of hot milk or milk foam has been dispensed. When not in use, you can remove it if you prefer the machine's looks without the RCS. You can store the removable milk container with any leftover milk in the fridge.The coffee drink quality of this machine is good overall; however, the coffee drink quality depends on the drink in question. The process is a bit messy, so you may need to clean the machine with a cloth afterward. Water tends to drip from the milk system spout.

Just make sure when preparing milk-based drinks that you switch the milk frothing regulator to the "froth" position. Unfortunately, despite the name "Gran Lattissima", you cannot customize milk textures or temperatures with this Nespresso machine. You either get hot milk, or milk froth, at a single temperature.

The Nespresso Gran Lattissima espresso machine is extremely easy to use, thanks to its 9 one-touch tactile buttons each representing a different drink. This machine is made of several materials. It has some stainless steel and plastic with matte and high gloss finishes. The top of the machine features a glass touch panel, with 9 one-touch buttons for easy preparation of 9 different drinks (2 of those are hot milk and milk froth so we don't consider them coffee drinks). In terms of milk drinks, the Gran Lattissima can either dispense hot milk (flat milk), or milk foam. Foamed milk recipes include the cappuccino and the latte macchiato. They do not contain hot milk, just milk foam. You will also notice the Rapid Cappuccino System (RCS) prominently featured in front - it looks like a milk container with a spout coming out from its side.
