Nespresso has teamed up with De’Longhi to create a new coffee machine with built-in milk frothing technology that claims to create lattes, cappuccinos and espressos with very minimal clean up.

Managing Director for Nespresso Australia, Renaud Tinel said, “Australians often find the mess and fuss associated with in-home gourmet coffee production one of the biggest barriers to enjoying a leisurely latte or espresso. The new Nespresso Lattissima, based on De’Longhi’s advanced milk frothing technology allows you to enjoy quality gourmet Nespresso coffee without having to froth milk yourself or clean up ground coffee beans. Lattissima delivers a revolution in coffee preparation that will thrill Australians who appreciate great design and great coffee.”
The Lattissima features a 19 bar high-pressure pump and thermobloc that guarantees optimal extraction and temperature in order to ‘produce the freshest quality coffee.’ It also comes with a one-touch option that automatically rinses the coffee maker, preventing milk particles from remaining inside the system and ensuring an easy clean. The removable 0.5 litre milk container can also be removed and stored in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness.
