Nespresso Pixie C60-US-DB-NE Dark Brown
Rating by : S. Milanov,

I love coffee.

Ever since I came to the US (from an European country where the Espresso is the king of coffee) I was struggling to adopt to American style coffee (you know, the one that is server in a huge 300-500 ml+ cup full of flavors, sugar, milk etc. that destroy the taste and smell of original coffee, not to mention that there is too much water and the coffee is not too strong). I ended up visiting Starbucks too often, and you know that an Espresso is over $2 and Doppio Espresso is $2.56 as of today. On average day, over $5/day, or at least $150/mo plus inconvenience to walk to the local Starbucks that is located 1-2 miles away every time is time for a cup of an elixir :-).

It was time to do something about it.

I started brewing my own coffee in a cezve / ibrik (so called Turkish coffee which is the way many people in the country I came from do it if they don't own a espresso machine). It was good but takes time to prepare, grind coffee beans and cleanup.

But I wanted Espresso, not a Turkish coffee. I still drink Turkish coffee occasionally since it is different than espresso.

After a research I've purchased Gaggia (cost me around a $1k with good grinder). I was considering Rancilio Silvia but decided that it will not fit my lifestyle as it needs over 30 min to warm up and some polished technique to produce consistent results. Gaggia was OK and I even was able to brew a really good cup of coffee few times. The problem is that it is very difficult to get consistent results, especially if you change the beans often. It was also not fun to cleanup everything after each and every cup of coffee.

So Gaggia went back to the seller and I've continued my visits to Starbucks and my attempts to make good turkish coffee.

Sometimes around the Gaggia time I visited a office of customer who offered me a cup of espresso that was with good crema, strong, tasty and aromatic - exactly as I like it. I asked him about the coffee maker and then he showed me Nespresso machine - an old manual model he purchased 6 or 7 years ago similar to current Essenza.

I was impressed. I was so impressed so I drunk 2-3 different flavored cups of Nespresso every time I visited his office. And then I just came here at Amazon and started looking at available Nespresso models.

Pixie was the one I like most mainly because the size and because it doesn't have any of these additional features like milk frother I do not need.

I still can use taller cup if I have to but mainly I use 2oz Illy designer cups.

Some remarks:

Machine is not too loud when pumping, not noisier than my espresso maker I had 10 years ago.

Brown color is actually very cool, it corresponds to the color of coffee and is much cooler than chrome, aluminum or red. And dark brown model is 172 usd vs 221 for chrome at the time I ordered it. Exactly the same machine, just different color.

There are 16 coffee pots inside the package, so you have a few for a day or two. I've ordered a starter pack directly from Nespresso with 200 capsules that came a day later at the price of 0.65 per capsule.

Made in Switzerland.

Since the patent for coffee pods (capsules) expired, you have a choice of third-party Nespresso-compatible capsules. This will ultimately bring the price down. Haven't tried any yet but based on comments in 'net some flavors are as good as original.

There is a third-party unofficial app on Google Play that tells you some details about each flavor, cost like 2 bucks and very helpful in determination what is the strength of the coffee in the capsule in addition to other details.

Machine is ready to brew in 15-20 second, shuts off automatically so it wont affect your electric bill like Rancilio.

Easy to cleanup. Usually I do it after 8-10 coffee cups.

Overall very clever design.

....and, most important:

consistently good cup of espresso. Every time. Any time of the day. Any capsule you choose.

Exactly what I was looking for,

high quality espresso

At first I was hesitant to purchase one of these. I liked the small size and ease of use but was concerned about the cost of the proprietary coffee capsules. I thought about it for over a year and finally decided that if I wanted to make good espresso at home I had to either buy a very expensive machine that took more time to use, required more work to operate and keep clean, and had a learning curve to get the best results from it, or I could get the Nespresso machine.
I've had this machine for a few weeks and I'm very impressed with the quality of the espresso it produces plus it's extremely quick and easy to use. You would have to spend much, much more on a very expensive, complicated machine and learn to use it properly in order to get better espresso and even then it wouldn't be that much better. (I also like the fact that the Pixie is made in Switzerland rather than in China like most things these days)
The cost of the capsules is a little high but the convenience makes it worth the cost, for me at least. Also, there is another European company that makes capsules for the Nespresso machines and they will be available in the United States later this year so you'll have additional coffee options that will be slightly less expensive.
Overall I'm very satisfied with the Nespresso Pixie and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative to a traditional espresso machine.

Simply amazing

Cannot go wrong with this coffee maker. It makes espresso shots and "lungo" (long) espressos in seconds.
From startup, it only takes less than 30 seconds to be ready. Perfect espresso in under a minute.

I've had better espressos, but never have they been made in my kitchen at 60 cents per cup.

Best of all, the machine is tiny and barely takes up any space on the counter.
Ordering more espresso pods from Nespresso directly is easy and fast. For all my orders, I choose the free "slow" shipping and they've come always the next day.
