Any issues with it after 2 years of use? Would love to see a long term review.

He is using the nesppreso version now but if all you want is foam and coffee this does the job. More bells and whistles on the fancy version of this machine that most people won’t use daily

as I've commented on previous videos I love this machine for so many reasons. the most Ive managed to get in the capsule container is 13 used pods because I had forgot to empty it the night before. pressing the container as if you're pulling it out will make one that's blocking the handle drop in and then you can push it back in okay. My only gripe is that the minimum line on the jug is about a tablespoon too much milk for using the view cappuccino cups. maybe it's just rich Aussie milk but every few days I inevitably end up either over or under filling it, the latter resulting in burned milk when I'm making a flat white. but I can't overstate how perfect this machine is for me as a blind user.

We purchased this machine last month along with a subscription by Nespresso. We have each our favourite settings, and this works fine. The coffee is as warm as we prefer it, and the machine itself does a great job. I don't mind the cleaning of the pipe. Its design fits beautifully into our new kitchen. We are very happy with it. Thanks for your review, the tutorials are very helpful!

For the price this is a good machine, I agree an on/off button would have been much better. I keep a microfibre cloth next to my Creatista Pro to just wipe over after use. It’s a machine for those who like a daily coffee and want a decent tasting one as well. Like you both I have a double shot in all my drinks and I do have to empty the pod collector but I now recycle all my capsules and I keep a check on those and get them ready to be collected by Nespresso. Thanks very much for showing everyone what all these machines are capable of. Just off now to have a much needed latte! 😀

Yeah I use a microfibre cloth on mine. Found some extra fine ones on Amazon too made for smartphone screens, so feel safe using that on the screen. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the machine and hope you enjoyed your latte 👍🏼

As always, exceptionally informative videos.

Another great vid. I was hoping that this machine would replace my Lattissima Touch purchased Jan 2015 rather than going for the Creatista Pro (unless Nespresso want to give it to me free for my long service record - been a member since Xmas 1998). The only advantage I can see over my present machine is that the setting for temperature, froth and having the steam wand is better than I have at the moment. What I cannot understand is why they still have a Ristretto setting on the machine? I never use it and I doubt many others have. To me, a shot of coffee is an expresso (40ml).

I tend to use the ristretto if I'm having 2 pods. the double espresso in a small cup ends up tasting watery so double ristretto is perfect.

The Ristretto setting provides a shorter (25 ml) shot than the 40 ml shot of the Espresso. When you express a shot of coffee, you get the very best quality of the shot at the beginning, and that quality tapers off, as it expresses. The Ristretto shot, small though it is, is considered the coffee of the connoisseur. (It makes me wonder if the coffee that Nespresso calls "Ristretto" is the one that they consider to be closest to their idea of a perfect coffee). The 40 ml Espresso shot though, is considered the "sweet spot" compromise between taste quality, and cost of the coffee. The large button "Lungo" shot of 110 ml suits a particular selection of Nespresso's coffee range, and you will see them identified in their literature. (Lungos don't work for me; not to my taste; for my choice, I can't go past a good Espresso!)

Thanks for the review guys.

Do you guys have the Creatista Plus too? I wonder the differences and which you like more and why.. I just recently bought the creatista plus and I love it! even the espresso tastes different than it did in my smaller Original Line Machine I had before

I don’t anymore… but if I didn’t have the Creatista Pro then I’d have probably kept the plus over the uno. I just prefer the finish on the plus and having a screen to walk you through the drinks and descaling is great 🙂👍🏼

So when you press the steam button , it steams for a preset amount of time ? Or can you turn it off/on manually Also when pressing the steam button , do you get a bit of water out the nozzle before the steam builds up ?

well i think there is no need for an on button. Why pay even more for that when you can turn it on and off with one and two button. Anyway i have this machine for a month now. the quality is very good. You have to find the right milk for a perfect cream. i did find a good milk and all you have to do is hit the milk tray one time once the steaming is done and its done.

Hoe kan ik de machine resetten het water wordt niet warm

hello!! if i want to make a double cappucino, in a larger cup, can you tell me please the way? i need 200 ml of milk?? thank you!!

Hi, great video! Really liking your channel. Could you make a short comparison with the Creatista Plus? For example, is the espresso hotter on the Plus? Or does make less noise? May I suggest that you measure the noise and espresso temperature in all your reviews? So it is possible to compare with the data you provided for other models 😊

Hi there. Thanks for the suggestions, will keep them in mind. I have been meaning to make a video like that but I'd have to get hold of another Creatista Plus as I sold mine after the review (regret that decision now) Will see what I can do 👍

For say, a basic Cappuccino, would there be much difference in the Creatista's version as opposed to making one with an Essenza + Aeroccino? I would imagine they'd be pretty similar, though I suppose the Creatista has more customization. The Creatista looks fantastic, but think I'd prefer the simplicity rather than the extra maintenance with the all-in-one machines.

Hi. It's a great video idea to try them side by side actually as I love the Creatista machines and the milk texture the steam wand creates but it may be closer than you think when tasting them side by side. I do find the Creatista quicker and easier to use than an aeroccino though as it's a simple quick wipe of the steam wand and you're done (I also catch the purging water in a small beaker so I don't have to clean the drip tray quite as often) whereas it can be a bit of a faff having to wash the aeroccino out by hand after each use. Hope this helps.

Can I do normal black coffee with 200 ml like a gran lungo or mug size?

Hi 👋 Not as a standard drink on this machine no, unless the new Nespresso filter style pods might work for you 🤔 There are ways to make an Americano by adding water to the coffee - we have a video on the channel trying different ratios of water to espresso - or you could pour 2 lungos but you can’t do it using one pod unless the filter style pods are suitable.

Thanks for the great videos! This machine seems really easy to use for the buttons. , especially if you prefer two pods for a capuchino. How could you use two pods on a Plus or Pro when using the set capuchino mode?

@A2BProductions

In the UK the Creatista Pro model is great for that as it can pour coffee and steam milk at the same time, so you can put the second pod in and pour the shot by pressing the + symbol on the touch screen while the milk is steaming. I still love that feature but not sure it's available in the US as think it might overload the electricity circuits they have over in the states. You can't do that with the Creatista Plus either so you have to use the dial to go to the espresso preset mode.before or after making the cappuccino. Hope this helps.

This machine seems easy enough. I have the Creatista Pro. I do love the machine. I really wish they would make the machines with the built in frothers with a cold foam option :)

Hi, first off thanks for all your amazing videos! I have watched a lot of them over the last week or so. But just hoping you can help the best you can over taste. I am by no means a coffee expert but i know what like. My go to drink is a starbucks Cappuccino with a extra shot. My plan to to buy a machine so i can make a decent coffee before my 45 min drive to work and save myself some money. I know my best bet would be a proper machine and go bean to cup, but i really like the ease of nespresso. Think i am spending £75 a month ish between starbucks and my dolce gusto so looking at this machine for £1 on the £45 subsciption, so a nice saving. My concern is replicating the starbucks taste (or simular) using nespresso pods, do you think its possible?

This is a great coffee machine. The only complaint is that the descaling light comes on about every month and will only let you make a few cups of coffee before you descale. We have been told by Nespresso that it should only need descaling every six months and this has been the case with all of our other machines. This is either a design fault or our machine is faulty. We are sending it away for investigation.

Interesting. I used one of these for a couple years, averaging 2 drinks a day, and it would always last about 3 months before the descale light went on.

Can I make mocha with this?!?!? My wife Is addicted and I'm spending stupid money on petrol station Costa 😱😱

Not sure how this is worth £329? I'll stick with my Lattissima Touch.

Can you get a good iced coffee

I'd imagine you'll need an aeroccino that has a cold milk setting - or other milk frother - if you want cold froth as the creatista uses steam to froth the milk, so the milk will naturally be hot. (Interesting though as I've never checked the temperature on the lowest heat setting on the creatista machines) That being said you can still make iced coffees by just adding espresso to milk and ice without frothing the milk.
