I also can not stand the coffee from the coffee machine in the office (but is probably due to the variety), and he does not like me and hardly Crema has, it should be a Nespresso machine. Especially here is the advantage that you can drink other varieties repeatedly and do not buy a 1 kg of coffee beans Sack has that one then might not taste.
The Lattissima + we noticed immediately apparent, since it is the only (apart from the overpriced Lattissima Pro) machine, where you can directly let the milk run into the glass. For other machines, it is always only one additional milk frother, which must be cleaned by hand and from which one must tilt the milk into the glass itself - as you can so as well use any other x-arbitrary frother.
When the machine was delivered, we were initially surprised at how small the machine in reality is! The effect is much larger on the screen. Also, the machine is louder than expected, but that is still acceptable, since the result is worth ;-)
At the moment we are still in the tasting phase and test all possible capsules by Nespresso, Jacobs, Senseo, Dallmayr, Gourmesso, Lidl, Netto, etc. So far, is emerging that the Nespresso varieties by far taste better! It shows while drinking, that it is not so watery, but "thicker". Very tasty and so far I have all coffee varieties tolerated super with my stomach! Whether Espresso or Lungo, no matter what strength! :-)
Now we come even to the pros and cons:
Pro:
- Super delicious coffee with great crema that lasts until the last drop!
- Phenomenal milk foam, the more like a 1 stands even after 30 minutes, and is fixed. Cookies remain lying on it and if you take the foam on a spoon and turns him, he gets stuck! :-)
- Easy to clean! In particular, the container for the milk foam is easy to clean, as all parts can in the dishwasher! After use, you can press a Clean button, so the process is cleaned and the rest of the milk can be made easy with the container in the refrigerator. :-)
- You do not hear noise when heating the water
- The water is very hot! :-) You can even burn your tongue when direct drinking.
- If you walk in makes no capsule, also hot water for tea, hot lemon, etc. you can do so quickly and comfortably
- When using the bar function and after the milk the process aborts before the water comes through the coffee outlet, one has perfect hot milk with super lots of foam for a delicious cocoa! :-)
- In theory (see Contraindications) is the customer service 24 hours a day and 7 days a week! In a warranty case you do not have for weeks without his Nespresso machine, but only receive a replacement device, the own machine is repaired and if you have this back, the replacement machine will be picked up! Exemplary! :-)
Contraindications:
- There is no water filter. None of Nespresso machine. In our Tassimo T55 I could directly from Brita BWT or use a filter. So we have now unfortunately only filter with a water filter the water before it can be poured into the water tank of Lattissima
- Biggest gripe: There is no recognition of how much water is still in the water tank! This means that on the one hand too little coffee or milk comes out and you wonder at first, but even worse is that the machine simply continues and then audibly sucks pure air! This is very annoying! In our Tassimo was a magnet in the water tank on the machine which realized if sufficient water is available for the next operation.
- You can shove left the ground for the coffee cup to make room for a latte macchiato glass is present. Visually, the base for the cappuccino maker is as designed and it looks from the side as if one could shove him, if you do not want to use the milk frother, but unfortunately this is not the case, so that the right base is always there.
- Toll is that used capsules first just in a container covered and you do not have to dispose of immediately. Is bad that there is not only collect the capsules, but also a lot of water - even if you only use the original capsules. That's stupid, because you simply can not empty the container over the trash can, but only the dirty water has to drain.
- At the moment the customer is completely overloaded. No matter what time of day, no matter what day of the week you call, you must currently reckon with at least 30-60 minutes of waiting in the queue! Unfortunately, this is very annoying. Since it does not comfort a well that George Clooney's dubbing voice speaks with a ;-)
All in all, it's the best coffee machine that we have ever had and prepared an excellent coffee! Once I bought a silver for the home, I have this one purchased directly for the office and also successfully launched two acquaintances to a Lattissima + to buy :-)
