Review on ☕ Breville Chrome Vertuo Coffee and Espresso Machine - BNV250CRO1BUC1 by Summer Lopez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product. Amazing coffee!

I don't normally write reviews but feel compelled to share my opinion on this excellent product. I first encountered this machine on AirBnb in Canada. I love a good cup of coffee in the morning and was a bit surprised when I saw this device in the kitchen (along with a handful of capsules). With no instructions in sight, I clicked on Youtube for advice. To be honest I thought it would be an awful cup of Java. Wow, I was pleasantly surprised! When I returned home to the United States, I just had to eat it. I don't normally pick the timing, but I got lucky and was able to find it for sale at Revain for $99 (including the sampler coffee set). I've had this device for two months now and can't get enough of it. The chrome version looks great on my counter! My favorite varieties are Odacio and Melozio. I drink one or two cups a day. Yes, it's not the cheapest coffee, but I think it's a reasonable indulgence. My local shop Sonoma and Williams sells the car and kindly gave me some official Nespresso bags to recycle. I love a piping hot cup of coffee with half and half cream. I read a number of reviews complaining about the warm coffee. The solution is actually quite simple. You can preheat your car. Simply press the start button when the handle is in the "neutral" position or the top of the machine is raised to the open position. In my opinion, the machine runs for 9 minutes. During this time, the heating element will heat up (the top of the machine will be quite warm to the touch). Then simply brew yourself a steaming cup of hot coffee. I'm not sure why the manufacturer doesn't recommend this option. Now my kitchen is a lot cleaner as I no longer use my old basket style drip coffee maker (though I do compost diligently). I don't miss washing and drying my coffee pot. I have reordered Nespresso capsules several times through Revain. They usually arrive the next day. After touching the dollar for a great cup of coffee (with ultra-convenience), I became a firm believer!
