The Essenza Mini is Nespresso's most basic and least expensive machine. It is also the most user-friendly machine, as it can be turned on by pressing one button. Your coffee will be ready in just a few seconds. Nespresso's capsule system lets you to enjoy coffee-shop quality espresso at home. The brand portable Nespresso machine is also known for its sleek machines, which can fit into tiny spaces.

This model and its bigger cousin Pixie 1, which is a larger model Pixie 1, both belong to Nespresso’s Original Line of pod espresso machines. They don't come with milk frothers, however you can add the addition of hot or milk to your coffee for a greater variety. These machines are also ideal for those who don't want to deal with the mess or hassle of traditional drip coffee makers.

You can also make use of a third-party milk maker with this machine if you prefer. The only downside to the Mini is that it only can brew two sizes of cups one espresso and one lungo (double espresso). This isn't a problem for many people, but it's something to think about if intend to use the Mini frequently.

The Mini is about half the size and weight of the other Original Line Nespresso models, which is ideal if have a limited counter space. The machine is energy efficient and consumes less power than other coffee makers. It's easy to refill its 20.3-ounce water tank and empty used capsule containers, too.

We tested the Essenza Mini for our Single-Serve Coffee Makers review and it did well in our tests of first-cup speed, repeat speed and consistency of temperatures between cups. We also found it was easy to use, simple to refill, and clean.

This small nespresso is offered in five colors and two shapes: black white and gray. The Mini C has straight lines and a boxy design and the Mini D is more angular with triangular designs. The two versions are priced the same and share the same brewing capabilities but they differ in aesthetics. The best option for you will depend on your personal style and the amount of storage space you have.

2. Nespresso CitiZ

The Nespresso machine isn't the cheapest but it's an excellent choice for those who prefer to make cappuccino or espresso at home. It is compact, easy to use and occupies less space than other models. It is slim in its footprint, which means it can be easily tucked away on kitchen counters. It uses capsules, which are an easy and clean method of making coffee. The machine is quick to heat up and comes with an energy-saving and automatic feature that turns it off after nine minutes of no activity. It also features a sleek design and is available in four colors that match different kitchen styles.

The machine has two programmable buttons that allow you to choose the amount you want to beverage. The machine will automatically stop the flow of water when it has reached the desired amount of Espresso or Lungo. It also comes with an adjustable tray that can fold down to allow it to fit taller recipe glasses. It is simple to use, meaning even people who are not experienced with technology can use it.

One drawback of the Nespresso CitiZ is that it doesn't have a separate button that can be used to dispensing milk foam. The milk frother is only available when the machine is turned on. This can be quite frustrating when making cappuccinos or other drinks requiring a lot of foam.

The machine does not have an automatic hot water dispenser. You'll have to add water manually each time you use it. This can be a challenge for busy family or away from home for an extended period of time. The machine does not come with an insulated travel cup, which is typical for smaller Nespresso models.

The Nespresso machine is easy to clean and has a small footprint, which makes it easier to store. It also has an easy one-touch brewing system. It takes about 25 seconds to warm up, which is relatively fast compared to other machines. It is also recommended to descale the machine regularly to eliminate the buildup of minerals and keep it running at its best. Nespresso provides a descaling solution that you can use to keep your machine in top shape.

3. Nespresso Vertuo Plus

The Vertuo Plus takes the single serve making process to a new level. The machine can produce a variety of coffees and espressos by pressing the button. It's also fast to warm up, taking between 15 and 25 seconds to heat up. The Aeroccino milk frother is also included, allowing you to create cold or hot frost in a matter of seconds for your most-loved coffee recipes.

The Vertuo Plus, like other Portable nespresso machine machines, is simple to operate. All you have to do is insert a capsule, then press the button. The machine will automatically scan the barcode on the capsule and adjust the brewing parameters accordingly. The machine will then spin the capsule up to 7,000 turns per minute, combining ground coffee with water to produce a rich crema.

This technology is exclusive to the Vertuo range which aims to deliver more evenly extracted drinks than other Nespresso machines. The result is a drink that is smoother with a more rich crema than traditional pod drinks. The Vertuo Plus can also deliver longer drinks, like Granlungo or alto, which is not possible with traditional pod machines.

The design of the Vertuo Plus is a further benefit. It is constructed of plastic of high-quality and has a slim body. The water tank can be placed on either the left or right side of the machine. The used capsule drawer can also be closed automatically. It also features cups that adjust to tall travel mugs.

Vertuo plus is not the best option for small spaces. It can take up a large amount of counter space with 12.8 inches high and 12.7 inches wide. It's also relatively heavy, so you could struggle to lift it if your kitchen is in the upper floors. Many reviewers were satisfied with the Vertuo's ease of use and quick making. Many people also liked that the large 40-ounce water tank was never in need of refilling, and it was easy to clean.

4. Nespresso Pixie

The Pixie is Tinkerbell for small coffee machines. It's small, cute, and magical (especially when you awake in the morning). Similar to its fictitious counterpart it can meet all your black-coffee desires without any hassle. It's a Nespresso single-cup espresso maker that can prepare short espresso shots in less than an hour. It's also incredibly energy efficient and can even be shut off automatically after nine minutes of inactivity.

It comes in different colors and a elegant design that looks good on your counter. The machine's body is made of lightweight aluminum and plastic. The cup support and side panels are a mix of thin aluminum and recycled ABS plastic. The handle latch is made of the metal Zamak which is lightweight and long-lasting.

The machine is easy to use and comes with a variety of options, including a short boiling time and low energy consumption. The automatic shut-off feature is a great addition and the capsule container as well as the used-capsule bin are removable to allow for easy cleaning. It's also easy to refill the water tank and a backlight in red indicates when the tank is full.

The Pixie, like all Nespresso machines, needs to be cleaned regularly. The process takes about 15 minutes, and involves filling the tank with Nespresso descaling liquid and then running a program to clean the system. This keeps the machine in good condition and helps protect it from calcium deposits that can cause problems for its performance.

The Pixie can't be used to make latte or Cappuccino drinks. If you're looking to drink a milky beverage it is necessary to purchase an additional milk frother. It's not too expensive, but it is a bit of a hassle.
