Making a Cappuccino with my Krups Dolce Gusto espresso/coffee machine.

Just a simple video making a cappuccino (latte style – milk first for layering) with my Dolce Gusto. I had a Tassimo, but did not like the chemical tast from the milk discs and the Dolce froths so much better and tastes great!

I just got the Tassimo T65, can’t say I experienced the chemical taste from the milk discs yet? Dolce Gusto was in the running, but only 7 drinks to choose from lacking some features made me go with the Tassimo. Still an nice machine, I saw them priced for $112 on one local retailer.
The tassimo does have a much better selection, but the milk discs over power the taste of the espresso. I was sold on the Dolce after having one from it. The taste was better, the foam was way better. I only use it for the cappuccino and lattes so for me the Dolce is better, but once I get a real espresso machine (Christmas) I will trade the Dolce for a Keurig as they have the best selection of coffees, but don’t do milk based ones.
Enjoy the Tassimo!
Nice vid, but it’s a bit paradoxal, since you make a cappuccino in a latte macchiato glass. A cappuccino is much smaller. You should use the macchiato capsules. I cannot tell if you’re actually doing that…
what’s that song???
Yes I am aware i am using a latte glass, it was so you can see the layering (as the description says “latte style”)
Also a cappuccino is not smaller then a latte, rather has less steamed milk and more frothed. The only way in which a capp and latte differ is the milk/foam/espresso ratio.
it is 1,2,3,4.. by Feist.
It was used by Apple for their iPod Nano commercial.
Tassimo uses real milk not powderd milk
Yes, real condensed milk with a foul taste from the condensing process. (At least that is what the general consensus is among online reviews and my own experience)
Also the Dolche uses slightly sweetened milk, really good for the overall flavor of the drink.
still… tassimo does not taste as good as dolce gusto.
I got a dolce gusto for christmas… It’s bloody brilliant! Wish costco carried the pods though.
I am in Toronto, Wal-Mart carries them as well as most grocery stores.
Hope you enjoy it.
Question: doesn’t it seem a little wasteful to be throwing away two capsules for each cup of coffee? If we all did this, that would be a lot of garbage, no?
Second question: where are you buying your capsules?
Cheers
Yes it does! lol
I usually get mine while grocery shopping at Metro/A&P
Or sometimes at Walmart
Is it hot? I can’t stand machines that can’t produce hot steaming beverages!
Yes, drinks are very hot. However, it also does cold for iced capps.
Thanks for letting me know.
Hi bought one -post christmas. I sent the UPC for mail in rebate . Only then did I realize that the coffee was not hot. Now 2 weeks later still waiting for the company to send for postage paid box to send the unit for service.
Good clip!!
One question because I am also planning to buy such a coffee machine:
What is the cupsize? Is that an original Dolce Gusto Latte Machiato cup?
Yes it is the one that comes in the box, 220 oz I think.
looks more like a late’
@o0dekker0o Um…yeah, Did you read the video description?
my dad got the capsules and we don’t have a machine lol like wtf.
now i want one, looks cool, easy and fast
Latte macchiato is this.
