Single-serve
High-pressure 19-bar pump
ThermoBlock heating system
With its unique extraction system designed specifically for coffee-filled capsules, this single-serve manual espresso machine prepares perfect espresso every time. The unit perforates the hermetically sealed capsule and soaks all the ground coffee to optimally filter the coffee, while its high-pressure 19-bar pump extracts all the aromas and gives body to the espresso, ensuring a smooth crema--the delicious creamy layer on top. In addition, the machines ThermoBlock heating system heats water to 187 degrees and 196 degrees during extraction and empties the remaining water after each use to ensure fresh water every time. Used capsules eject automatically into the used-capsule collection container upon lifting the handle on the top of the unit. Other highlights include manual control of the amount of coffee in the cup, a backlit control button, electronic temperature regulation, and a removable 34-ounce water container. The espresso machine only uses capsules, not any other ground espresso, but Nespresso provides a range of premium coffee blends, including decaffeinated. An assortment of 12 capsules comes included. Compactly designed in sleek, modern housing, the manual espresso machine measures 10 by 6-2/5 by 11-1/2 inches.
