Can I use a cappuccinatore with this model if I bought one separately ? The milk sucking and foaming device that intelia class has.

No. I do not like the automatic milk foamer either. You cannot control the milk temperature with it. This unit will allow you to manually steam and it works great, to achieve a proper steaming for cappocina.(SP)

This model has a milk frother, not sure why you would want to use a separate one.

No. The machine must be designed to use iperEspresso capsules. Illy makes machines and so does Cusinart now.

Yes, the milk frother ("aerrocino") may be the best part about this unit. You just pour cold milk in and choose from four different milk styles. Two types of foam, cold frothed milk or warm frothed milk. The milk frother is even available as a standalone unit for $99.00 and if I didn't get this machine as a gift I might just buy the aerrocino and use with any espresso machine.

you might find you get better results overall if you use a small pitcher for the espresso and then add it into the cup after you have your milk in there (I don't have these cups, I just love coffee :D )

Hello,I don't have a cappuccino maker, but I used to. I think you would put the pumpkin pie sauce in the milk before you froth it and then add the frothy mixture to the coffee. I just love it in my coffee as is! Enjoy!

Yes it only works with capsules, the frother is attached but separate from the expresso part. They have to be done separately, but is very quick.

The Poemia has a steam wand for making various espresso drinks. With some practice and high quality ingredients it will make drinks that most of us are more than happy with. That said, the ability to make a high quality cappuccino of the caliber you may be seeking may be beyond the capacity of this machine. Philips Saeco makes several other higher end machines that produce better product more reliably but they come at a premium. I am really not sure you will find a better product in this price range though. I have used the Poemia everyday since purchase and it has created tasty espresso reliably. I don't froth much as I drink mostly straight espresso or Americanos. Best of luck.

How well the cappucchino taste also heavily depneds on the foam you make. This machine make reasonalby good espresso, but is OK for foam. If you are really into cappucchino/expresso, I would recommend a manual machine like Breville 870. My personal bias, it worths it.

It's a steam machine. Milk foams fine for me; the below answerer probably let the nozzle get blocked with old milk.

No, you have to brew your expresso first then froth your milk. If it was me I would keep looking for a better machine.

Ive had Tassimos for more than a decade. I don't think the cleaning process for this one was any different than earlier models and it might be louder than some pod style coffee makers. I won't fret that much about it and just enjoy drinking coffees, expressos, lattes, teas etc that are miles better than anything that other inferior brewer that begins with a K can produce. BTW, I wouldn't buy the latte creamers that they sell, even the "skinny" variety that they eventually introduced. Just put the milk in a grande or venti size ceramic cup, microwave it for about 2-3 minutes until it foams and then add the expresso to the cup. Makes a better latte than using the relatively expensive creamers

Hi joe...I put enough milk in the Capresso, to just barely cover up the little spinner...if it doesn't froth enough for you...as sometimes it has milk left in it when you start to pour then the froth...I will turn it on again...BUT...STAND THERE WITH IT...and WATCH IT...as at that point, it could overflow. This amount of milk is enough for a big mug of coffee...I also use 1% which I understand froths better than whole milk...but I have never tried whole milk..Hope this helps...need anything else, let me know!Smiles, Rebecca

The 800ESXL Duo-Temp™ features a steam wand designed for producing textured / frothed milk for cappuccino or latte purposes. The results will entirely depend on your technique and the type of milk being used.

I have had 2 of these machines (one was a replacement for the first) and they did not foam well. It basically just made some bubbles on top of the liquid (I tried creamer and milk separately with no luck). So I would answer no to this. I think the aeroccino plus (which was my first machine) foamed really well with thick foam so I would recommend that machine.

Buy a milk frothing pitcher. I have the 200 ml one and it works wonderfully. Froths milk much better than my cappuccino machine.

For a detailed explanation of what this is and how to use it, simply go on line to the Capresso website and look up the instruction manual for the machine.This should answer any questions you might have.
