Nespresso Coffee Machines

Nespresso coffee makers are small and compact, unlike drip coffee machines. They have a basic black design and vary in price and sophistication. Some come with a milk frother for latte art, and can be linked to the company's app to manage recipes and receive descaling alerts.

The most basic machines, like our pick, the Essenza Mini, are simple and affordable but forgo features that can make more complex drinks. Other machines can make larger sizes of drinks, like the gran lungos.

What is what is a Nespresso Machine?

Since 1986, Nespresso sells single-serve machines that use capsules to make coffee drinks and espresso. The brand has gained a devoted following because of its ease, speed and consistency in making hot espresso drinks. These machines can be a great alternative to brewing at home espresso using moka pots or drip coffee maker, both of which require the time and care to clean after each use.

A Nespresso machine uses pressure to extract the flavor from the pod, then it heats water and froths milk for coffee drinks such as lattes and cappuccinos. nespresso vertuo pop machine has a wide variety of tea and coffee blends that can be adapted to different moods and tastes as well as decaffeinated and flavored choices. The machines are compact, stylish, and easy to operate, making them the ideal option for those looking for an easy cup of coffee in the morning or for an afternoon energy boost.

The Vertuo line replaced the original Nespresso machines in 2014, which utilized the Original capsules to make espresso shots. The smallest model in this line is the Essenza Mini, which is extremely compact, with a small water tank as well as a room for capsules that are used. Its easy operation, with only two buttons - one for an espresso and the other for a lungo--makes it simple to master.

Contrary to Keurig machines, which require the user to manually add water prior to each use, all Nespresso models automatically dispose of any capsule that is not used after brewing. These machines can store anywhere from four up to twelve pods used up, based on the size of their water reservoirs as well as capsule storage. They are then thrown away into an internal receptacle time you open the machine.

Some of the more popular models also work with the app for mobile, which allows you to make your own recipes and reorder capsules from home. This feature was tested on the sleek stainless steel Vertuo Creatista. It also allows you to make hot coffee as well as Iced tea by using a dedicated frother room. The only downside of the machine we test is that it doesn't support all types of milk. You'll need purchase a separate frothing device if you wish to make drinks with whole or 2% almond milk.

The Original Line

The Original line of pod-only machines includes the sleek Citiz and Essenza Mini. Both machines pierce the capsule and then pump hot water at high pressure through it, delivering an espresso or a lungo. The original machines utilize 19 bars of pressure, which is higher than the 15-18 bar pumps in some of the more expensive Vertuo models.

The Original machines produce a crema (a thin layer of tiny microbubbles on the top of the espresso), which is thicker and richer than the foam in the Vertuo line. The crema isn't just froth. As the Spruce says, it could make up as much as 25% of an espresso's flavor. The Original line offers more expensive Creatista or Lattissima espresso machines that have built-in milk frothers to make lattes and cappuccinos at the press of the button.

The Lattissima Line

This line of machines is perfect for those who like milky coffee drinks like lattes and cappuccinos, and want a machine that can do it all. It has three customizable recipes and its 4.2 cup milk container can be removed and washed in the dishwasher. It's also light and easy to store and transport in small areas. Some customers have complained that it's not as intuitive as other Nespresso machines.

The jug in this machine is marked with lines that indicate the type of beverage you'd like to drink. You can select your beverage while the machine is heating up. It also has a sensor that will automatically stops the steaming process when the jug runs out, nespresso Vertuo machine preventing milk waste.

The Lattissima One is a good value for its price and is available in four colors: black with gray accents, dark gray, porcelain white, and silky white. The machine is easy-to-clean and has a minimalistic aesthetic that won't overwhelm smaller rooms. It's also fairly affordable with a retail price of $385/PS279.

It comes with an automatic drip tray just like the OriginalLine models. The tray is designed to catch any loose ground as you pour espresso. It's a nice option for minimizing the mess, and helps to avoid spills which could affect the taste of your beverage.

The Pro and Gran Lattissima have larger water tanks than the Lattissima One. This allows them to hold more water without having to refill. Both models come with faster heating times (15 seconds for an Espresso and 25 seconds for a Lungo) and a hot water function that can be used to make iced coffee or tea.

The only drawback to the Lattissima line is the difficulty of changing the consistency of your milk foam. The machine is only compatible with skim milk (sorry vegans and people who are lactose-intolerant) and the foaming mechanism doesn't work well with vegetable or almond milks. The wand for frothing can be tricky to clean and is a common complaint from Nespresso owners. The Lattissima Pro or Gran Lattissima features a self-cleaning function that cleans out the milky interior of the frothing wand after every use.

The Vertuo Line

A Nespresso Vertuo machine makes a small cup of coffee that is ideal for those who love espresso and prefer a quick, intense drink. Each capsule has a barcode around its outer rim that is read by the machine's software to determine the amount of coffee it should make. Nespresso's Vertuo pods are extracted with a unique technology.

The Vertuo Line offers a wide range of different drinks, including Ristretto (mini espresso), Espresso, Lungo, Americano and Cappuccino. The machines can also be used with the Nespresso Aeroccino Milk Frother to make frothy cappuccinos and lattes.

Each Vertuo Line coffee machine heats quickly and is ready to brew in less than 30 seconds. They have a smaller reservoir of water than the Original Line and require less maintenance. There are several models to choose from, meaning you'll be able to find one that fits your style and budget.

Vertuo Line machines can also make regular filter coffee, unlike the Original Line machines that only can brew Nespresso. This is accomplished by a separate spout located at the bottom of machine.

VertuoLine machines are equipped with a brand new brewing technology that makes use of centrifusion to gently extract espresso and coffee. This allows for the production of natural crema that protects and enhances the coffee's aroma. The VertuoLine system also has an intelligent recognition system that alters the extraction parameters to match each Grand Cru blend.

Each VertuoLine machine is covered by a manufacturer's warranty. It also comes with a starter pack of 10 free Nespresso capsules. The company offers a subscription service which delivers new Nespresso capsules each month.

There are many VertuoLine machines to pick from, the Nespresso VertuoPlus is our pick for the best overall machine. It is easy to use, warms up quickly and comes in a range of colors. It can create five different sizes of espresso and coffee including flat white, ristretto and lungo. It also brews a latte macchiato and is able to be used together with the Aeroccino milk mixer to make a cappuccino, or Latte.

The only issue with the VertuoPlus is that it takes longer to prepare than other machines, especially when making an Americano. For instance, if you compare it to the Bunn Fastbrew, which could brew 8-ounce Americano in just 42 seconds, the Nespresso VertuoPlus took 1 minute and 51 seconds. You can speed up the process by making sure you choose an automatic mode.
