Can this be used to make a latte- either hot or iced?

Since a latte is made with espresso and steamed milk, it might not come out as you would expect, since the Pumpkin Spice is already in Cappuccino format when made in a Keurig machine. I'm sure it would taste OK, but might not be as strong as a latte normally is. I personally have not tried to do it, so just putting forth an opinion. I do like the taste of this flavor very much.

You could probably use it instead of milk/cream. I have used it as a coffee creamer and it was good. Make the coffee and use it after it is made to make your latte using the steamer on your expresso machine.

As usual, you would use cold water in preparing the coffee to perk, but I can assure you that the finished product is hot, hot, hot! Not lukewarm, or sorta hot, but truly hot!

It works great as a desk surface, it is rated to 300 or 400 degrees so hot drinks shouldn't be a problem

Yes. I use a full size latte mug for Double Espresso Latte, and a small cup with the pullout tray for a single shot Espresso or Latte

Sure, in the sense that it will put out (hot) espresso, which can then be chilled for an iced mocha. Any espresso machine will do this.

Definitely. This machine is designed to produce espresso and it has the capability to steam and froth milk. Essentially the French caf au lait and the Italian caff latte is 1/3 espresso to 2/3 steamed milk, or a three ounce double serving espresso to five ounces of steamed milk. There can be a slight learning curve when it comes to frothing the milk. Make sure you are using a fresh and cold skim or 2% milk. Bleed your frothing tube line before lowering it into your frothing pitcher. Water will dilute the milk if line hasn't been bled.

Definitely! I use it for iced tea and iced coffee! Use a cup full of ice and the 8 oz setting. Perfect!

For a latte, I don't know. You can ask at a local Starbucks; that's how I got my recipe. If you'renot close to a Starbucks, you can call one.

Probably! The foam is nice and thick...you can also microwave foam to get it to "stay" longer. I just love this machine and the foam, however, I have never made latte art. I have seen it and it's remarkable.

Yes you can. There re multiple brands that have latte, cappuccino or both. Gevalia is my favorite, Starbucks now has a few and several others. Search Tassimo latte and Tassimo cappuccino to see the choices. You can also make chai tea and iced tea.

I would imagine you would use like a Fox's Ubet syrup. Milk, coffee, in the blender. Not sure tho, sorry.

No. The coffee is brewed with water as with a typical coffee maker. To make a latte you need to warm the milk separately and then add the espresso to it, or buy their aeroncino and then add the espresso to it. Just as you wouldn't make a pot of coffee in a coffee maker using Milk, you cannot use milk in the reservoir. If that is your goal, I suggest buying one of their more expensive Nespresso makers that will make the latte for you. Milk would most likely ruin the machine.

Yes you would be able to use it for hot or cold because of how it is made inside. Very durable.

I don't think you can use it for hot beverages. I have only used it for cold.

Well yes and no. If you pull cup out before it puts the espresso in the mix you might be able to pull it off. You might even be able to avoid wasting coffee by tricking it to think you are using already ground coffee (not sure). However the milk is foamed milk not just warm milk so you get about 1/2 cup of milk and its not super hot.

I only drink Iced Coffee with it, but I would assume it would work. Heat the toddy mix first, then add hot water. Or it will be luke-warm...

I usually have a latte, adding hot milk, so not so sure. I do find when I go back for the second cup it can use a little warming.
