NespressoVertuo Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville, Matte Black with Aeroccino Milk Frother

I have enjoyed the Nespresso for a few weeks. For its manufacture quality, the superb coffee drinks it produces and ease in using, it is arguably the “best” I have owned. I also have a Keurig that doesn’t get much use, and a Professional La Pavoni that is performance art while using, but not easy. (Also: The Nespresso milk foamer works amazing! Makes thick, creamy and hot milk for cappuccinos.)Quiet operation! Modern design. Awesome product!

Heavyweight like commercial. Very little assembly needed. Matte finish blended well with cylinders on each side. 1 side holds water other holds used coffee caps. Makes 7.7 oz plus frothing so Id say need a 9oz or larger cup. Very hot coffee too.I had a couple different Kureg in past & went back to normal coffee pot.I feel in love with this at a Resort on Vacation. It fits our 2 family house hold well. Plus I can see the quality will take care of multi family just as well. Zero complaints.

Switching from Keurig to Nespresso is like night and day. The quality is unparalleled. There are various sizes of coffee and espresso, each capsule states what it is and if you are unsure just pull up the Nespresso site and there’s a breakdown of everything! You also get 10% off for auto replenish orders with the Nespresso app. Certain machines offer different qualities, this machine does not brew XL, carafe or cold brew capsules (you can still make iced coffee). The vertuo line does NOT take the original pods, it takes the dome shaped capsules. This machine is so easy to use once you’ve done the initial cleaning cycle (use hot water not cold). The aeroccino is a great addition for cold or hot foam. My bf and I wanted to stop buying Starbucks and this has really sealed the deal! No leakage so far and the water tank is easy to fill and replace. Functionally this is great, it does everything we need and simply, I love that the old capsules get ejected to a tank on the right side of the machine when you open it up after making a drink and when it’s full you can empty the tank into your recycling. I highly suggest buying the syrups for added flavor in your drink and foam, a metal pitcher for over ice drinks and the double wall glasses to give the overall sophisticated feel! I love this thing, I shouldn’t have waited so long. If you are having issues with your machine call Nespresso or live chat with them in the website, you also get a 10$ gift card, if it’s expired reach out to customer service and they will honor it.

The media could not be loaded. I needed a coffee maker for my home. I used to get my daily coffee fix at my office. However, I have been working from home since the onset of COVID. What I wanted was a easy and fast cup of coffee. I also wanted a coffee maker that offered plenty of variety. Also, it had to be dependable ... I did not want to be investing in a new coffee maker every six months. After a few days of research I decided to buy the Nespresso Vertuo Coffee and Espresso Machine by Breville with Aeroccino. I am so glad I did ... it has been exactly what I wanted ... and more!My research suggested that if I wanted an easy and fast cup of coffee with plenty of variety I needed to buy a pod style coffee maker. Pods allow you to change up flavors and types at your whim without any concern that the coffee will lose its fresh taste. Also, pods are easy and fast ... put the pod in the machine ... press a button ... and in a minute you have a hot cup of coffee.I looked at both Keurig and Nespresso and decided Nespresso was for me. Reviews and comments from friends and family suggested that Keurig coffee tends to taste watered down while comments on Nespresso said that the coffee had a rich, bold taste. I was sold on Nespresso, but now which machine to buy? There is the Nespresso Original and the Nespresso Vertuo. Both make great coffee ... but the Original is focused more on European style espresso while the Vertuo makes espresso as well as full sized cups of coffee. Vertuo seemed like it offered more options, so that is what I chose.Next, I had to decide on the type of Nespresso Vertuo machine I would buy. I have a strong preference for Breville appliances. Breville products are well built, durable and look nice. When I found that Breville makes a Nespresso Vertuo machine I was sold ... that was the one for me. I placed my order with Amazon and a few days later I was brewing coffee at home one cup at a time.I have been using this machine for several months now and have no complaints. It is everything I had hoped for ... and more. The machine is relatively quiet when brewing. I attached a video with sound so you can hear the machine do its thing. It takes about a minute to brew a full cup of coffee. My machine came with a milk frother quickly produces a warm frothy milk.There are many pod options available for this machine. There are espresso pods which make a 2oz to 3oz shot of espresso. There are 5oz to 7oz pods ... up to XL pods that produce a 14oz cup. Nespresso uses a 1 to 10 scale to define the strength of the coffee, with 1 being mild and 10 being extra bold. I have found my sweet spot is in the 4 to 6 range.I mentioned the machine is everything I wanted ... and more. The "more" part can be seen in the video. This machine produces a nice full bodied crema. The machine reads a bar code on the underside of the pod. The barcode tells the machine the type of coffee being brewed and how quickly to "spin" the pod to produce a perfect crema. I attached a picture of a pod so you can see the barcode. This is much more than I expected ... and makes for an enjoyable cup of coffee every time.I have no complaints about this machine. It is easy to clean and simple to use. I highly recommend it. Five stars.

The media could not be loaded. I cannot say enough about this machine. I was addicted to a coffee chain and spending way too much money. My New Year’s resolution was to find a way to make coffee at home. I had tried other coffee makers and nothing tasted good until I tried this Nespresso. it is so easy to use. Super quick to use in the morning hold enough water for several days yet easy to refill. I’ve had no issues working the machine and it makes excellent coffee. I’m saving so much money.
