I'm finally reviewing the Nespresso Breville Creatista Plus! I've had the creatista for about four months now and I feel like I have all my thoughts together enough to review it. The Creatista Plus is not a cheap machine, is it really worth $650?!

Someday I want to get a fancy Jura, but with 2 kids (ages 2.5 and 1) I love the ease of this machine. Would love to see more videos on it! I didn’t know there was something you had to do daily to clean the steam wand. My husband bought it as a push gift before I had my son and set it up for me (aka he probably tossed the manuals and didn’t read the directions😅)

I would love to have manual coffee options but for whatever reason I just can’t do them correctly. I am sure it is user error. I was the same with getting past the no cold foam option. I do use my Pro for a lot of iced options. I usually just use my hand held for cold foam.

    Hi Alex! Loved this review! I bought my Creatista back in 2018 and got in on sale from Nespresso for $400 (still a lot of money). I loved it, until I bought my Nespresso Vertuo Plus this Christmas (i have the same one as yours). I still use my creatista because I can’t somehow part ways with it.. BUT if I’ve bought the VertuoPlus first I don’t think I would’ve bought the Creatista.

My husband bought mine for Christmas and I really don’t like it but he loves the lattes I make for him so I kept it. I’ve been using the Amazon brand espresso capsules and it makes way more crema. I still prefer the pour coffee I do. I do wish I would’ve bought a manual espresso machine instead. This is good for convenience but not for the price!

    Hello Alex Cool videos. I have a question about the Sage Creatista Plus. Right now I'm using a De'Longhi Citiz & Milk. It makes really good foam. But would like to buy a Creatista Plus. With the Creatista Plus it has yes a steam nozzle. I could not test the machine anywhere, unfortunately. Could you maybe make a video where you can see the differences of the 8 milk foam textures? That would help incredibly with the purchase decision. Looking forward to your feedback. best regards 🙂😅

    You were mistaken with the crema. The original line espresso machines have always had the thin crema (the way an espresso is suppose to be) this is why I prefer the original line over the Vertuo machines because they make espresso' closer to the manual ground machines. The thick crema is a marketing thing in the Vertuo line, it is caused by a centrifuge process (spinning of the large capsule at high speed) while brewing creating that fake thick crema that seems to be all the rage.

    I’ll have to disagree, I wasn’t expecting a thick fake Crema like vertuo. I was expecting crema like my mini essenza did.
