Finding the perfect coffee machine in today’s climate can feel like a daunting task; there are so many different machines to choose from. After spending much of my spare time researching the best coffee machine for our home, I feel that I can offer some guidance. After much research, we eventually plumped for the Krups Nespresso CitiZ coffee machine, not least because of its ability to produce delicious shots of coffee and hot chocolate using the machine’s 19 bar pressure – and the fact I can produce Starbuck-style coffee from my own home (at a fraction of the cost!)
This coffee machine makes producing coffee easier than ever before. Making coffee is something you can do from the off too, as the Krups Nespresso folks have kindly enclosed a set of 16 capsules in the box for you. The Nespresso CitiZ coffee machine is perfect whether you are looking for a swift espresso before work or hoping for a longer-lasting lungo coffee; it can easily and quickly do both – and a whole host of other beverages, too.
To get started, simply fill up the 1L water tank which is conveniently located at the back of the machine. Simply choose from the huge range of coffees and beverages, insert your capsule, close and then place a cup under the nozzle and press the button corresponding to the your chosen cup size. Nespresso have even designed a couple of capsule holders for your capsules to be stylishly stored, helping to reduce clutter on the worktops while ensuring your capsules are always close to hand.
This machine keeps it eco-friendly, too with a power-save function enabling your machine to turn off 9 minutes after usage; saving on energy bills is always a plus.
Nespresso have poured (pun intended) a great deal of time and attention into the design of their capsules and how to ensure they can produce a barista-style experience in your home. The Nespresso capsule system produces high quality coffees in a capsule-like form designed with aluminium outer casing to ensure it is recyclable and is eco-friendly. To get the best hot drink experience from home you can select from two buttons on the machine allowing you to choose either espresso or lungo and many more. They have also set up a Nespresso Club where you can receive expert help and guidance from their team, whether you’re seeking technical help or simply ordering more capsules for you to enjoy in your own home.
Since I’ve purchased this product I’ve found that it has really complimented the kitchen with its urban looks that gives the machine a compact yet stylish and contemporary design. The award-winning Red-Dot design means it will fit in with any kitchen and since Nespresso have also produced the range in different colours and with a milk frother as an optional extra you can be sure it caters to the palate and the décor of any kitchen!
