Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Nespresso D90R Essenza Manual Espresso Machine, Coral RedCustomer Review: Fabulous espresso! Summary: 5 Stars
I like the idea of having a cup of espresso in the afternoon, but my Krups espresso maker was a pain. Messy, hard to use and with marginal results. I decided to look for a high quality coffee maker/espresso maker combination but the salesclerk steered me to the Nespresso and recommended buying this machine and a separate coffee maker (which was less than buying the pricey machine I was considering).
The demonstration won me over. The machine is so easy to use. You touch a button to turn it on, fill the 34oz capacity water bottle to the desired level and pop it in the back. Put the coffee filled capsule of your choice in the machine. Next push the button and your cup begins to fill with coffee. Push the button again to stop the flow at the strength you like. The espresso that results has a crema on the top from the pressure of how it is made. Simply delicious!
Clean up is easy. Just pull out the bottom and discard the tiny tin that held the coffee..No mess, no fuss. The machine holds about 14 empties so you don't have to do it often.
The design is sleek and small and easily fits in a tiny amount of space. I purchased the metallic silver C90 which is a very attractive color. The D90 works exactly the same with a slightly different design.
There are two potential drawbacks to the machine. This model does not have a frother. However, my experience with attached frothers has not been a good one so instead of paying an additional $150 for the frothing model, I picked up a Bonjour frother for $20. I can froth milk easily and warm it in the microwave if desired.
The other drawback is the coffee capsules must be purchased through the Nespresso company. I have not ordered yet but understand a sleeve of 10 capsules runs close to $5.00. The company sells a variety of strengths including decaf.
Today I made my daughter a gingerbread latte. This is something I normally would have had to pay a few dollars for at a specialty coffee house. To make the latte I put two tablespoons of gingerbread syrup in a cup. Then added two ounces of espresso made with my C90. I stirred in 1/2 cup of warm milk, topped with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkled on cinnamon and nutmeg. Delicious!
Great little espresso maker!
