How is the nespresso machine holding up?Reviving an old thread, I’ve just bought a Nespresso machine and have been enjoying perfect latte every time, I love it! Previously I had a Tassimo but the coffee from the Nespresso is far, far better.
We’ve had an Original for years and my wife refuses to make her coffee any other way. I use it to make espresso, but I make my big cup of coffee with a French press.How is the nespresso machine holding up?
Ive seen they are on offer on Amazon (£49 for the Krups one with an offer of 100 capsules from nespresso. Ive been eyeing one up for a while and I currently use a Bialetti moka pot
I have the Krups one, it’s working great I wouldn’t be without it.How is the nespresso machine holding up?

I only have experience of one grinder, so take this with a pinch of salt. I read some online reviews and bought a Hario Skerton Pro for 45quid, which seems pretty good. Been using it for 5 months. The reason I went for this one is that it has a clicky grind adjuster, so I don't need to have any judgement at all to get consistent results.Just like joining a shaving forum for some newbie advice....Can I ask - for an absolute rank coffee amateur, where do I start with a beginners grinder? Cant cost more than £50.....manual or electric? I simply want to experience a fresher filter coffee in a morning.
Thank you, sir. As a starter I have just ordered an Aeropress!I’m using a Hario mini and have been for the last couple of years. I have a DeLonghi which was about £40, it’s OK but it’s messy and you can’t get a very fine grind with it. It’s OK for Aeropress but wouldn’t be fine enough for espresso. One advantage of a hand grinder is that it’s portable so when we go on holiday I can take it with me.
I was at the same point at the start of lockdown. You can see read the advice I received in this thread. I also ended up buying an Aeropress, it's relatively cheap and makes good coffee.Thank you, sir. As a starter I have just ordered an Aeropress!
I have the De'Longhi and it is great! It will grind fine enough for espresso, but it needs a shim under the burr. Easy to do.I dont wish this question to be like pulling the pin out of a grenade and throwing it......

There are some reviews online of De'Longhi machines around £40 which are great, and also rubbish. Maybe the latter are from coffee snobs? Some folk suggest that a manual grinder is best for travelling? I had a similar dilemma when choosing between an EJ 89 and a Merkur 34c back in the day
Many thanks.
Thanks for sharing. I’m probably going to grab an aeropress and a manual grinder.Had an email through from Pact (no affiliation) with info about their Black Friday deals. They've got 20% off equipment , which means you can get an Aerooress for £22.40 or money off V60s if anyone was considering getting one of those. There's money off some coffee too
