Nespresso Gran Lattissima EN650.B by De'Longhi, 1400 W, 1 cup, Black

Product Information

This Gran Lattissima is the newest of these 5 Lattissima models with the most modern design that weighs a touch less than the similarly spec'd Lattissima Pro. The biggest difference is the Pro's digital touchscreen display and larger spent capsule capacity while the Gran has more preset beverage recipes: The Nespresso Gran Lattissima espresso machine is extremely easy to use, thanks to its 9 one-touch tactile buttons each representing a different drink. You could brew an espresso shot separately, and then use the one-touch hot milk or milk foam buttons (and program these as well) to create your favorite milky drink. Foamed milk recipes include the cappuccino and the latte macchiato. They do not contain hot milk, just milk foam. Finally, the only part of the machine that’s not so easy is the setup and the maintenance. The setup involves disassembling the Rapid Cappuccino System, washing all the components, drying, then reassembling the system and attaching it to the machine. Moreover, you’ll have to do this every time you clean the milk frothing system, which is fairly often (more in the maintenance section). Rapid Cappuccino System (Milk Frothing)

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'. 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.Automates the cleaning process, efficiently rinsing and purging the internal milk and coffee pathways after each use, ensuring hygiene and optimal performance with minimal effort from the user.

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. If you like both espresso and milk-based drinks, you’ll love Gran Lattissima. It makes seven different drinks, plus hot milk and milk froth. The milk frother is completely automatic, which means you insert the pod, choose the drink, and the machine froths and pours the milk for you. You have milk beverages with a press of a single button.Nespresso Gran Lattissima is a grand choice for coffee lovers who want espresso or a latte macchiato with a touch of a button. If you don’t want to go through the hassle of using a traditional espresso machine (grinding, tamping, frothing the milk), you’ll love Nespresso Gran Lattissima.

A notification mechanism designed to inform users when the machine requires descaling, a crucial maintenance task to remove mineral deposits and maintain optimal performance, ensuring the machine's longevity and the quality of brewed coffee. Creatista machines with integrated frothing wands for a more manual frothing experience, as if you were a true barista For our money, OriginalLine machines are better than VertuoLine machines because their pump produces more authentic espresso, the coffee tends to be hotter, and there's no barcode scanning system meaning you can find less-expensive third-party capsules. The same goes for milk drinks. Hold the button for at least three seconds, and release it when the desired amount of milk foam has been released into your cup. You know the Nespresso Gran Lattissima has saved your preferences when the drink button flashes three times. Just make sure when preparing milk-based drinks that you switch the milk frothing regulator to the "froth" position.In terms of milk drinks, the Gran Lattissima can either dispense hot milk (flat milk), or milk foam. Lattissima One is the basic model in the Lattissima lineup, so it’s the most affordable. This Nespresso machine makes only four drinks, compared to the Gran Latissima’s nine options. VertuoLine: Their new line that uses Centrifusion (rapid capsule spinning) to extract shots from barcode-enabled capsules but also brews standard coffee up to 17 oz The coffee drinks are good quality. Gran Lattissima has a powerful 19-bar pump, the same as other Nespresso OriginalLine machines. The pump ensures there’s good coffee extraction during the brewing and that espresso has a nice crema. Finally, I’d recommend this machine for beginners and busy coffee lovers who want ease of use and convenience. Should You Get Nespresso Gran Lattissima?

To do so, touch and hold for at least 3 seconds the button corresponding to the coffee drink you want to prepare. Once the machine has brewed the desired amount of coffee, release the button and the machine will save the brew size for future uses.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. 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. 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.
