Great job, again as usual. Enjoy the Creatista Plus. Not sure if you remember or not, but I advised in an earlier comment about my friends owning a Gran Lattissima. Soon after I purchased the Creatista Plus, they stated they preferred the taste and overall control of this machine. They then went and purchased one for themselves. Now we both get the same great taste whether we are at their place or they come to ours. That being said, we recently ventured into the world of SuperAuto's and purchased a Gaggia Cardona Prestige. A bean to cup machine. Freshly ground beans takes espresso to a whole other level. I'm just sayin...............lol.

Enjoy your bean to cup, one for the future for me I think.

Really glad you’re enjoying the videos. Yeah that’s something we do these days for a cappuccino with the Creatista and also had a tip to tap the jug on the worktop first and swirl the jug around a bit to mix the froth then pour out of the side of the jug as you say 👍🏼 Hope this helps too 🙂

Creatista - hate the screen on top 😓 would prefer it on the front OR lift-up-able so you can read it easily

As always, great review and helpful for anyone thinking of buying . The Creatista Plus looks like a small improvement on my Maestria which is about 4 years old. A few more bells and whistles but pretty much the same. have you ever used or seen the Maestria ? I would love to see the Creatista Plus and the Maestria side by side test. Keep up the good work and stay well.

What is the difference between a long ristreto and a normal expresso? Are the two drinks made at a different temperature?

Thank you...the coffee from the Lattissima Pro is quite cold. Would be interesting to see, how hot ist would be from the Creatista with with setting „Ideal“ And you definitely need a better thermometer.... the Thermapen from the UK would be the right choice. Very fast and accurate, but not cheap.

Hi - we have the Creatista Plus (good deal with John Lewis at £299) and my only criticism would be the milk jug markings - these are quite difficult to see on the inside - I wonder what other people think? - other than that, this is a terrific machine!

Hi! Yes I spotted that deal online and it's a great price but checked back the other day and said out of stock 😭 I sold mine after getting the Creatista Pro but still miss it and sometimes think about getting one again for other comparison videos. Know what you mean about the markings, you do tend get used to pouring the right amount without needing the markings as much as time goes by. Great to hear you're happy with the machine as really did rate it 👍 Hot coffee and silky milk.

Well worth the extra money in my eyes too.

These lattissima machines all have the same inherent issue which is Luke warm coffee when using the auto frother. I’ve had the lattissima+ and had exactly the same issue where coffee with the auto frother was never above 55c which is at least 10c cooler than you would expect any milk based coffee to be served at. My machine was sent back to nespresso for inspection and came back with a new thermostat fitted but still had the same issue. I now have a delonghi bean to cup with auto frother and although it’s still a little cool than I’d like it but it serves coffee at 65c-70c depending on the size of coffee and if it’s the first drink of the day or not. My only issue now is that the auto frother systems are a pain to clean. I’ve been looking to moving back to a Nespresso due to ease of use and convenience but would only do it I’f I could get a creatista for a decent price on a good offer. Joff 👍👍☕️☕️

Cheers for the info Joff. I prefer the steam wand on the Creatista too as think they heat the milk better and prefer the texture of the milk. They're also really easy to clean.

For us it would be the Creatista Plus for sure. I much prefer the texture of the milk it creates and the ability to change the froth level and milk temperature on the Creatista is a huge advantage.

Mary Stokas Hi, Mary. Not sure if you got your machine yet.. but I’m in the U.S. and you have to call to get the subscription. You can’t get it online. Also, they only offer the Creatista Uno on the plan, but the plus. It’s $45/month for 12 months. Hope this helps.

Does the latissima really take 25 seconds to heat up each time? or is it the second cup you make it's a lot faster? Also it seems a bit comical making a machine that heats up in 3 seconds but then you gotta warm up your coffee and milk one at a time, still takes over a minute to make a cup.

@A2BProductions

3 жыл бұрын

I've found it does heat up quicker if you've used the Lattissima fairly recently. Know what you mean about the Creatista Plus too, but then the Lattissimas do the milk and coffee seperately also I guess. We have a couple of videos on the channel where we make 2 cappuccinos in a row with the Gran Lattissima and also the Creatista Pro and the Creatista Pro having dual boilers increases the speed quite a bit.

First time I used it, it heated up in about 6 seconds, even though the marketing material still says 25 seconds heat up time - I’m guessing they’ve improved this over the years?

I had the gran latissima for the same reason as you lol, until i had to send it back to d' longi to be repaired. The frother doesn't work well. Warm milk comes out, without any froth. I thought it was just me, but after reading the reviews it's become clear that many people experience the same problem, besides the coffee is not hot enough. The gran latissima unfortunately is a waste of money. I had the gran latisimma for only 3 months, it was brand new, poor quality.
