How to choose? Your guide to the best Nespresso machines

Nespresso machines are expertly designed so you can easily prepare and enjoy delicious Grand Cru coffee from the world’s most fruitful coffee growing regions in your own home. With cutting-edge technology and high pressure extraction (19 bar), they produce superior results to please even the most exacting coffee connoisseur.

With all Nespresso machines you can add fresh milk to your coffee, whether you choose one with an integrated milk function or whether you add an Aeroccino milk frother alongside your coffee maker.

Meet three impressive machines that will step-up the quality of your coffee at home.
