I have always been sceptical of pod style coffee machines but this Nespresso Vertuo machine has taken the concept to another level and delivers fantastic tasting coffee. There was tough competition for this machine as I also have a very expensive bean to cup coffee machine but I would rate the coffee this machine produces equal to or above the bean to cup machine.
The choice of different coffees available for the machine is vast, ranging from single espresso to long, travel mug size coffees. The barcode system printed on the pods is very clever, allowing the machine to know what size coffee to produce and at what temperature from the single press of one button. As well as different sized coffees there is also a range of strengths available and the single origin coffee pods taste as good as single origin beans I have bought in the past.
The machine is very stylish and the ability to rotate the water tank 180º allows for it to be placed in any position in the kitchen. The spent pod collection system is neat and clean, the pods are automatically sent into the hopper when the lid is opened, the hopper can then be removed to enable recycling of the pods.
The pods offer good value for money compared to coffee shop prices and produce an equally high standard drink, however ground coffee and whole beans work out cheaper if you have a machine which can use them. Environmentally, the pods are made of aluminium and are recyclable, bags are available free of charge and can be sent back to Nespresso, but this does cause a lot more waste than non pod options.
