! Love !
I love Nespresso coffee but resisted getting one of their coffee makers because I didn't want to be chained to pricy pods (compared to purchasing whole bean and grinding it myself) and for two years have lusted in my heart for one so I could enjoy my favorites without hanging around the demos in local stores to get my fix. After I tasted a cup of Indriya I couldn't wait any longer.
I now have a sleek black U and it is my new BFF. The operation on this one couldn't be simpler, you have three cup touch controls right on the top to choose between Ristretto (.84 oz.), Espresso (1.35 oz.), and Lungo (3.7oz). To turn the machine on you simply slide open the pod cover and it begins to preheat which takes about 25 seconds. Then insert your pod, touch the cup size you want and slide the cover closed. It begins brewing immediately and in a few seconds you are enjoying a perfect cup of coffee and your spent pod is automatically dropped into the capsule dispenser. I like to run a cycle...
First World Joy
Sometimes, I wake up, and I want coffee, but I don't want to have to do any work, or go anywhere, or interact with other human beings. Nespresso heard my cries and made the Nespresso U.
In Italy, every tabac has a fully stocked bar and a $12,000 espresso machine operated by an old man or young woman who coaxes the black blood of the devil out on demand while fiddling with knobs and pipes. If Italy ever wants to clear its national debt, it can just sell its espresso machines and be in the black within 24 hours. However, in America, knowledgeable baristas are few and far between. They definitely aren't working at Starbucks, and the ones working at Intelligentsia are filled with the kind of disdain for their customers usually reserved for war criminals at The Hague. Therefore, the best option in America is to buy a Nespresso machine.
The U is compact, with an adjustable water tank you can shift to the side to nestle it into a corner more easily. The machine...
Fully automatic is the way to go!
I have been a long time Nespresso fan and I'm excited for where the brand is going these days. They seem to be branching out in the U.S. now which is great to see. This is my fifth Nespresso machine and I have to say my favorite one so far. This meets every criteria that I required. I was looking for a fully automatic machine with multiple cup sizes in a compact machine and this one delivers. It really does not get any easier than this, just open the slider on the top select your cup size drop in the capsule and close the slider. The machine takes over from there, how awesome is that? I also managed to get this machine during a 2 day sale and saved $50, although knowing how great this machine is I would have paid full price.
