  • TBH I had to Google Nespresso, but recognised the product when I saw the machine and the packaging that the capsules come in

    I tried one of the flavours while at a customer's site, I had the Arpeggio as I recall the blue capsule, it was a while back and I remember it was a good coffee

    I have always thought of these capsule machines as a fad. I only drink Lavazza and Taylors of Harrogate coffee and they are not available in capsules.
    Clever marketing trick by Nestles though.
    I think i'll stick with my 1980's Krups espresso machine.
    And when that fails i'll get one of these.

    I'll stick with my cafetiere, I think. Simple, but effective.
