Review on Nespresso Inissia Red Espresso Maker: Discontinued Model Offers Authentic Espresso Experience by Jim Booth

As I own Inissia and have reviewed before, I'm using my previous Inissia-only review here and adding a new review for Aeroccino Plus below. [Original Inissia review] I owned Citiz for home use and bought Inissia with co-workers to keep him at work. When compared to the Citiz, the Inissia is quite comparable in quality and construction, and is currently about $70 cheaper than the Citiz. Inissia is compact and well finished. It is very easy to use and makes a great espresso. The water heats up just as quickly as the Citiz, around 25 seconds so far, so you can make coffee very quickly in the morning. I appreciate that like the Citiz the water tank is removable and unlike the Citiz the lid of the water tank is a hinged top and attached to the reservoir. While the used pod container doesn't look as flashy as the Citiz, it's just as functional, and being all black doesn't show coffee stains like Citiz's clear, light-colored plastic. The only problem I really had with Inissia was the drip. I suggest leaving the drip tray lowered at all times unless you need to have a large cup on stand while brewing. Inissia can drip for a while after brewing, and when I set it up on my table, it accidentally started dripping quite a bit of water a few hours after I made the drink. It's annoying, but not by much, as the drip tray leads into its own decently sized water collection container, which sits beneath the used-capsule catcher. It is very easy to remove and discard excess water and used capsules. For the price (99€) I am satisfied with my purchase. Despite the drip, it makes a great cup of espresso quickly and easily. A 5 star espresso machine at this price wouldn't have any drip issues for me. However, it costs about $0.75 per shot compared to the $2 you would spend at a coffee shop. The machine is used quite a bit by a lot of people so I'll update this review when it wears out. At this point I can fully recommend her for the price and the good coffee she produces. [UPDATE of original Inissia review] I wanted to update my review after owning and using Inissia regularly for over 6 months. The machine performs very well in daily use by many people and consistently delivers my indispensable morning cup of espresso. [Aeruccino Plus Review] The frother is heavy, durable and high quality. I really like the use of magnets to attach the blender and appreciate that there are two different blenders in the package. The kit includes a whisk for a large amount of foam and a mixer for light foam or no foam. The handling is very easy. You fill milk up to the fill line, put the lid on and press the button. It then heats and froths the milk silently in the shortest possible time. I have no experience with other blowers but this one works well as it is fast and quiet. It's also pretty easy to clean. I'm worried about some household appliances because if they're hard to clean, they won't be as useful. I think partly due to the magnetic part of the blender and the waterproof design, the frother is almost as easy to clean as a standard mug. It works surprisingly well, and considering you'd pay around $60 for it, this bundle seems like a pretty good deal if you really want a milk frother. I've only used skim milk so far and wasn't sure if it would froth well, but it heated and frothed the skim milk very well. I would also like to point out that while I have not tried using almond milk myself, I have seen videos online of people using the two main types of almond milk successfully and frothing them very well. clean and it works fine. If you like cappuccino, latte, and macchiato, the Nespresso Inissia paired with Aeroccino Plus nozzle costs around $115 and is easy to recommend.
