An astonishingly GREAT…

Well, what can I say? I'm shocked.
Nespresso? Hmmm, I had my preconceptions but took the plunge on a deal which gave me little risk to try this machine out, and thank heavens I did.
This little thing is astonishing. Now, I'm a bit of a coffee snob, and have one of the bean to cup thingies at home already - you know the ones, that you have to replace the beans every 2 days and clean out the insides as it gets chocka with coffee dust etc etc.
This Nespresso has actually put the FUN back into making coffee. The joy at seeing the servo-assisted lid open/close when you want to drop in a coffee capsule, the huge positionable water container, the cool rotating lights ate the top (which are surprisingly informative once you get used to them) is still there after weeks.
It's no good though if it doesn't make a decent cup of coffee though... Check, it does with bells on. The only problem is which one to choose from, there are SO many styles to choose from, and the FUN is back with working on which combination of milk and coffee capsules to use. It's like playing at being a Barista - brilliant.
Then what surprised me the most was how each capsule has a code on it which the clever machine recognises and meters out the exact amount of coffee for each capsule. No more randomly guessing when to press stop. Just insert a capsule of your choice, press the button and wait for your delicious coffee, served at the perfect temperature with the perfect amount of crema.
Oh and it's DELICIOUS with almost all of the capsules I've tried giving a rich and flavoursome coffee, with no bitterness. Very impressive.
I'm GENUINELY really impressed with this machine and it has not only changed my opinion of Nespresso, but changed the way I think about homemade coffee. That old dinosaur grindy bean thingy is a goner. This Nespresso machine has taken pride of place in my kitchen.
Got to stop writing my review no, as i have to decide what coffee I'm going to order in my first free month of a coffee subscription! SO MUCH choice.
STILL on the fence? Take it from a coffee lover, just buy one, you'll not regret it!
