FAQs

Can you use the Nespresso capsule twice?

I will only encourage you to use the Nespresso capsule once. Also, it is not recommended by Nespresso itself to use the capsule twice. However, people can have more than one cup of coffee from a capsule if they want, but it will most likely affect the taste, quality, and strength of your coffee.

How to insert the Nespresso capsule?

It is a simple process. There is a capsule compartment on top of your machine. Open it by lifting the lever, insert the capsule, and close it gently, not with too much force.

What happens if you don’t descale Nespresso Lattissima Plus?

If you don’t descale your machine daily, it will affect your coffee. Mineral scales start to build up and can restrict the flow of water, and your machine will stop working if it is not cleaned properly. Descaling makes your machine work efficiently for a more extended period, so each cup of coffee you make tastes fantastic every time.

How frequently should I descale my Nespresso Lattissima Plus?

As advised by Nespresso, it would be best if you descaled your machine daily, after every three months, or every 300 capsules. Otherwise, as time passes, an internal mineral buildup of water can negatively impact your machine’s performance.

How to make a cappuccino in your Nespresso Lattissima Plus?

Before we start making cappuccino, ensure that there is milk in the container because we have to set the froth regulator to exactly how much froth we need in our cappuccino. Connect the Rapid Cappuccino System to your machine.

Now place your glass under the coffee outlet and pop in the Nespresso capsule in the capsule compartment. Here, we are ready to start brewing. Adjust the froth regulator accordingly and select the Cappuccino button; what’s going to happen first is the machine will start frothing the milk, and within a few seconds, it will brew your coffee and stop automatically. Once your coffee is ready, remove the used capsule from the capsule compartment into the used container, close the lever, and rinse the Nespresso Lattissima Plus.
