When preparing milk-based beverages with your Nespresso Gran Lattissima machine, it is important to start by filling the milk container. However, you must be cautious not to overfill it. It is essential to respect the maximum level indicated on the container to ensure optimal performance and avoid any spills or mess.

Step 2: Inserting the Capsule

Once the milk container is filled, it’s time to move on to the next step: inserting the capsule. Start by lifting the lever completely to create enough space for the capsule.

Step 3: Connecting the Rapid Cappuccino System

To enhance the milk frothing process, it is necessary to connect the Rapid Cappuccino System to the machine. This system enables the machine to heat up the milk more efficiently and deliver the perfect consistency for your milk-based beverage. Simply connect the Rapid Cappuccino System to the machine, ensuring a secure and snug fit.

Now, it’s time to wait for the machine to heat up. The heating process takes approximately 15 seconds, so be patient and let the machine do its work.

Step 4: Adjusting the Milk Spout Position

To ensure that your milk-based beverage is properly dispensed into your cup or glass, it is important to adjust the milk spout position. Prepare your desired cappuccino cup or latte macchiato glass and place it under the coffee outlet. Then, rotate the milk spout up to the center of the cup or glass. This adjustment will ensure that the milk is evenly distributed and creates the perfect layering effect.

Step 5: Setting the Milk Froth Regulator

Now, it’s time to set the milk froth regulator to achieve the desired texture and consistency of your milk-based beverage. Turn the milk froth regulator knob to the Froth position. This setting will provide you with a frothy and creamy milk consistency that is perfect for various milk-based recipes.

Once you have set the milk froth regulator, it’s time to choose your desired milk-based beverage from the available options. Whether you are craving a cappuccino, latte macchiato, flat white, cafe latte, hot milk, or milk froth, the Nespresso Gran Lattissima machine has you covered.

Step 6: Starting the Preparation

With everything set up, you are now ready to start the preparation of your milk-based beverage. After a few seconds, the preparation will automatically begin. The machine will handle the process, ensuring that your drink is brewed to perfection. Now you can sit back, relax, and let the machine do the work.

Step 7: Cleaning the Rapid Cappuccino System

Once the preparation is complete, the Clean alert will illuminate orange to indicate that it is necessary to clean the Rapid Cappuccino System. Cleaning is crucial to maintain the performance and hygiene of your machine. To initiate the cleaning process, place a container under the coffee outlet to catch any residue.

Next, turn the milk froth regulator knob to the Clean position. This will activate the milk system rinsing process, where hot water combined with steam flows through the milk spout to remove any remaining milk particles. The rinsing process will automatically stop once it’s completed, and the clean alert will resume.

Step 8: Storing Milk and Cleaning the Rapid Cappuccino System

If there is any milk left in the Rapid Cappuccino System after preparing your beverage, it is important to disconnect it from the machine. The milk should be immediately placed into the refrigerator to ensure its freshness and prevent spoilage.

Don’t forget to close the machine steam connector door, as this helps to maintain the machine’s cleanliness and prevents any unwanted debris or dust from entering.

If you do not have any milk in the Rapid Cappuccino System or if two days have passed since its last usage, it is recommended to clean the system. Disassemble all the components and clean them thoroughly. This will ensure that the Rapid Cappuccino System remains in optimal condition for future use.

Step 9: Additional Cleaning Options

For added convenience, if you have access to a dishwasher, you can clean the Rapid Cappuccino System components in the dishwasher. This saves you time and effort while still ensuring proper cleanliness. Simply place the components in the dishwasher and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for best results.

If a dishwasher is not available, manual washing is also an option. Take the time to manually wash each component of the Rapid Cappuccino System with warm, soapy water, ensuring that all residue is removed. Rinse them thoroughly and allow them to air dry before reassembling.
