Nespresso Compatible Machines

The Essenza Mini is Nespresso in its most basic form. It forgoes extra features and large water reservoirs to keep it compact and affordable. It is able to make espresso shots of three sizes, as well as milk-based drinks such as lattes, cappuccinos and flat whites.

The machine can accept both Original and Vertuoline Capsules. It requires regular descaling that Nespresso recommends every three months.

Vertuoline

Vertuoline Nespresso is the perfect machine if you want to make amazing espresso without the need to grind, measure and tamp. These one-touch machines use capsules that are filled with all the ingredients you need to make your preferred beverage. The barcode on the rim of the capsule tells the machine how much water and how hot to use to achieve the best flavour. The capsules also require a particular method of brewing to create delicious crema.

The Vertuoline machines also provide an easier and more convenient cleaning system. Instead of having to remove manually the capsules and empty the waste bin, these machines feature a self-cleaning function that will automatically empty the capsules into an attached bin that you can recycle. The Vertuoline also produces a lower amount of waste than other machines, like the Keurig K-Cup. Additionally the process of descaling is much more efficient and speedier than other pod-based machines.

While the Original Line machines use pressure technology to prepare coffee nespresso machines, the Vertuoline makes use of a revolutionary Centrifusion brewing system. The system is able to inject hot water into the coffee capsule, and then spins it at speeds up to 7000rpm. It's a totally different process than traditional espresso machines, but it delivers the same result of a rich and creamy crema.

The Vertuoline offers a range of sizes for brews, from double espressos to Gran Lungo and each size comes with its own distinct flavour. These brews are made ready within minutes and are a key characteristic of the machine. It's also extremely sturdy with a design constructed of 54% recycled materials.

Pixie

Pixies are mythological creatures and folklore from a variety of cultures. They are often compared to sprites and fairies, however, they differ. Pixies are generally gentle however, sprites (fairies) and pixies can be mischievous. They are usually small and cute. They are often associated with ancient sites like stone circles, barrows and ringsforts.

The name of the pixie isn't known but it could be taken from the Swedish word pyske, meaning "little fairy." Other theories suggest that it is closely related to Cornish b ca (Cornish Bucca) or Irish puca (Irish Puca or Welsh Pwca). The word is also associated with the pyx (a stone carving of a tiny Faerie) and pixels (digital images where individual pixels can be seen).

This single-cup machine will fit perfectly into a compact space. Its compact design is perfect for any kitchen or living space, and it only occupies a small amount of counter space. It is simple to use and comes with numerous programming options. Its hammered panels provide it with a an indeparate frothers, the Lattissima is designed to froth and pour milk directly into your cup to create an exquisitely-crafted beverage. This can save your time and effort. The milk container is also easily removable, so you can put it in the refrigerator when not being used.

The only downside of the Lattissima is that it doesn't make coffee as well as an automatic or manual coffee maker. The granules are a little rough and the flavor doesn't have quite the same intensity as those of a high-end machine. It doesn't mean the machine isn't great; it's but it's not the best choice for those who want more coffee flavor. It still works, though it's a great choice for those who prefer to enjoy the convenience of Nespresso pods and save the hassle of making their own espresso at home.
