Become your own barista right at home with the Nespresso C91 Essenza manual espresso machine. Designed for convenience and ultimate taste, the machine has a sleek and attractive black finish, and uses Nespresso's superior coffee capsules.

The water tank is removable for quick cleaning and the machine removes any remaining water after brewing so that the next brew will be as fresh as possible. Featuring 19 bars of pressure, the Nespresso C91 Essenza can be used to pull rich shots of espresso anytime. Other features include a backlit control button and a Thermoblock heating element that can heat water up to 196 degrees F. Included with your purchase is a Bonus chrome Nespresso capsule carousel, perfect for keeping up to 40 capsules within easy reach. Due to processing and inventory constraints, please note that the bonus gift may vary by color, size and quantity.

In my opinion, the coffee made by this machine is as perfect as you can make in approximately the space of time it takes to make instant coffee (and in approximately the same physical space). The noise is also much less than I have heard with some other Nespresso machines.No doubt if you choose to grind/roast/grow your own beans you can make better espresso, but for the rest of us the quality is near perfection.The only issue I have is that you are limited in the height of a cup you can fit under the spout. A standard coffee cup fits fine, but if you want to use anything that is much taller, then most cups do not fit - and I prefer to use the espresso capsules to make a big cup. Even my shortest non-coffee cups do not fit unless I jam them in at an angle. An extra 1/4" of height would be nice....Oh, and buy your capsules from Nespresso.com. The Amazon.com merchants are reselling genuine capsules at a significant markup. Each capsule is somewhere around 50c or so each and while that is not cheap, it is not bad for me. Not mentioned in the product description is you get an assortment of 16 capsules, so you can decide what you like before you place an order.edit: Maximum cup height; about 3.25"

It may not cause you to forget your favorite Italian or French cafe espresso, but this machine comes pretty close, without the airfare and hotel. Easy to use, the Essenza pumps out crema-laden coffee time after time. With a $130 price tag and the capsules that go for $.55 each, you're even financially with Starbuck's after 100 cups, and from there the savings mount up. (A back-of-the-envelope calculation is that if you buy this machine and drink roughly an espresso a day during the first year -- versus going to Starbuck's for the same thing -- you will save over $300.) Moreover, the quality of Essenza's espresso is more consistent than espressos I've had at Starbuck's, Caribou, etc. The only question now is the machine's durability, but for now, after a month of use, I'm definitely sold!

My friend had the Keurig. I liked it. Then my sister-in-law got the Tassimo. I loved it and bought one. I rate the Tassimo much higher for quality of the beverages/taste than the Keurig, and have tasted many brands of cups for both. Still loving my Tassimo (even after having to replace the rubber gromet around the piercing blade - which you can get for cheap online) me the the Mrs went to Cancun for our honeymoon, and there in the room was this - the Nepresso, and a few coffee capsules and cups awaiting our arrival. We filled the container with some bottled water, plugged it in, waited until it stopped warming up (only a minute or so), then brewed a cup without needing any directions. Without words, my wife took the first sip and glared at me - then handed me the cup to taste. I said it first - "holy crap is that amazing or what!". Completely in a different league than either Keurig or Tassimo, I said "this tastes exactly like the coffee we get from those $,5000 Late machines". Not only in taste, but texture. Never did we imagine the coffee froth and that much taste from these small capsules. Smaller than the K-cups, so you wonder how they can be so much better!While there in our room in Cancun, I ordered this one online at Amazon so it would be at our door when we returned from vacation. We just got back and are loving it! Now why only 4 stars with this glowing review? Just a caution: I THOUGHT I was buying the same model as was in our room. While it brews the same, the difference is, the one in our room had TWO buttons for brewing - one to brew a small cup, and one adds more water to brew a big cup. The hotel room model just said "Essenza" and it seemed that was the only choice online. I don't know if the newer model was at our hotel in Cancun, or that was the older model and the replacement Essenze is manual brew, or if they sell both but I missed the slight difference. But when ours arrived, although it looked identical, and was the Essenza, our model, instead of a small coffee button on the left of the spout and a large coffee brew button on the right, it had a red Power button on the left, and Coffee (brew) button on the right. With this model, you have to REMEMBER TO PRESS THE COFFEE BUTTON A SECOND TIME TO STOP IT! If you want a smaller cup of coffee. My bad for not seeing "manual" in the description! But when looking at the model from our room in Cancun, which was Essenza, there seemed only to be one model, so I didn't give it much thought in my excitment to buy it!. Since we always prefer a smaller cup that is stronger, now we have to press to start then press to STOP brewing. This is tough, when we use a variety of cup sizes and shapes, to keep the taste consistent. In fact of our very first cup we guessed wrong and filled the cup too much before stopping, and it was a lot weaker. The second time we undershot, then 3rd time a charm - but we've just proved to you that you are not going to get a consistent cup of coffee taste having to try to guess when to STOP brewing. I then tested to see if it would stop at a large cup if you don't stop it - no - this is a completely manual brewer only - will not stop until you press the brew button a second time. More for your decision making: Me and the wife bought this for strong cups, expresso, latte, etc. We only want 3-5 oz servings so we know it will be strong. Not really interested in making large cups of coffee for the drive to work in the morning. But another consideration for those of you who may want to brew larger cups - large cups don't fit under the spout. Removing the grate does not help - about a standard 6 oz ceramic cup of coffee is all that will barely fit under the spout. Yes fairly simple to hold a larger cup at an angle, which I suppose is important since you cannot leave it unattended since it won't stop by itself! Couple that with the fact that it's manual brew, and I've decided to see if Amazon will take this back (even though we brewed 2 cups), and pay double to get whatever model higher had automatic stop buttons! Again absolutely love and amazed at the quality of brewing several different coffees from our machine in Cancun, we look forward to getting the next model up, so it'll be auto stop and repeatable consistency when we are making 5 or so cups for guests - not wondering who got the strong or weak cup. It comes with a set of 10 capsules, all different. I was very confused looking at the Nepresso web site, I for one couldn't find where it said how many different types of capsules each model can brew. What I thought was each model showing the NUMBER of different capsules available for each machine, online, was actually the COLORS that each one comes in. I think the cup size is one size, and therefore each model brews all coffee flavor types. I do like the idea that you get to brew it stronger or weaker to taste, and originally thought maybe we'll keep it, but since 90 out of the next 100 cups will be just me and the wife, wanting a small cup, I don't want to play guessing games pressing the stop button at the right time.
