Nescafe KP210250 Dolce Gusto Single-Serve Coffee Machine, Creme Review

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2KAMUCI09DZ0L I want to love this machine. If you are considering purchasing the Dolce Gusto machine I STRONGLY suggest you sample the coffee first (I think Sur La Table has demo machines). Here's what I like about the machine:
* The design is sleek.
* It's well made and sturdy.
* The machine heats the water up really fast- once you turn it you're ready to make coffee in well under a minute.
* The machine is incredibly easy to use. (see attached video for a demo of a cappuccino)
* No real cleanup required after each use.

Now for the bad...
* The machine comes with a latte macchiato glass, a cappuccino cup and saucer. Unfortunately the packaging was very poor (not enough bubble wrap) and the saucer arrived cracked.
* The coffee is horrible. As good as the physical machine is... it is only as good as the coffee it makes. All the milk based Dolce Gusto drinks are excessively sweet, taste artificial and have a ton of sugar and have anywhere from 3.5g-6g of fat.
*The non-milk drinks are very disappointing as well. Both the espresso and lungo aren't very strong and taste very average.

I have posted video demonstrations for each of the drinks in my reviews of :
* Cappuccino
* Espresso
* Chococino
* Caffe Lungo
* Latte Macchiato

Nescafe Dolce Gusto Melody II Single Serve Coffee Machine, Black Review

Nescafe Dolce Gusto Melody II Single Serve Coffee Machine, Black

I got this as a Christmas gift for my wife. So far we've only tried the latte macciato and the hot chocolate (cocochino) flavors but she likes both of them. The machine is easy enough to use, although an auto shut off option may be worth the extra money (the creativa model has this option). As it is you have to decide when to turn off the machine so you have that control over the strength of the coffee but its hard to get the reccommended amount. The only complaint I have is that amazon says:

"Everything you need to make a hot or cold drink is contained in our easy to use capsules, your new system come with a variety box of 16 capsules, a cappuccino cup and saucer, and a latte macchiato glass mug"

Which is partly true because I got the variety box but I didn't get the cappuccino cup, saucer or latte macciato glass mug. I didn't lower my rating since this has no effect on the coffee maker but I wouldn't have paid what I did if I knew I wouldn't be getting these items. I think its an error on Amazon's part and not a missing item because the box did not mention the cup, saucer or mug being included. I will update my review after I hear back from Amazon on the issue.

UPDATE: Amazon took care of the problem for me, hopefully they start shipping with the mugs for everyone else or they take it off the description.

How It Works

NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® machines heat water, which is passed at high pressure - a maximum of 15 bars -into the coffee cup through a capsule of high-quality NESCAFÉ® roast and ground coffee. The coffee that is used in the capsules is made of premium 100% Arabica beans.

The high pressure and the capsules are designed to deliver an even distribution of water and pressure over the coffee to ensure that flavor is maximized. This system uses pressure similar to that of professional machines.

While drip coffee machines operate at one bar of pressure (normal atmospheric pressure) and a number of competing machines operate at no more than two bars, the NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® system can operate at up to 15 bars of pressure. Each capsule makes one cup of coffee in under a minute.

Nescafe Dolce Gusto by Krups KP2509 Creativa Coffee Machine, Titanium Review

Nescafe Dolce Gusto by Krups KP2509 Creativa Coffee Machine, Titanium

(More customer reviews)

After being a DAILY Starbucks customer for almost 20 years....yes..daily X 20 years..I don't want to think about it. Anyway...to reward my loyalty, they did away with my 10% gold card discount and raised their prices AGAIN in December and I hear another one is coming in february. I have had a price in my mind for quite awhile that was the limit that I would pay Starbucks to make me a cup of coffee that was worth about $1, and they hit it. So my husband said "pick a machine and I'll get it for your for Christmas". I look at them and I went with this one. I don't drink a complicated drink, I just want it good...and hot..fast would be nice. This machine is fast..real fast. I am impressed at how fast I am walking away from the kitchen with my cup. It is simple enough that my son makes a hot chocolate with ease. There is really nothing to clean..that's good too! I only use bottled water in it because our tap water has alot of minerals and I want to avoid that in this machine. We take water so it is just a matter of walking the tank to the cooler every couple of days. I have tried the latte, the capp, the americano, and the lungo. My husband and the kids like the hot chocolate and the peach tea. The downside to the capps and lattes is that it does take 2 pods.. one milk and one coffee..thus a box of those is really only 8 SMALL/tall servings or 4 grande size servings. At $9-$10 a box at BBB prices(Amazon Sub & Save is about 7.25 a box) it wasn't really beating Starbucks prices by much at almost $2+ a cup. When a cup of coffee is kitchen close.. 2 in the morning and 1 at night is too tempting. So I started thinking about skipping the milk pod...thus getting 16 actual cups from a box.. I have milk sitting in the fridge. I looked around and found the Capresso FrothPro (available on Amazon also). Another $60 and no more need for milk pods. So now I use the Americano pods and the froth pro and make one decent size, nice and hot cup of coffee in just a few minutes..right from my own kitchen. The weakest thing about the Dolce Gusto systems are the limited flavor/variety they put out for now. A few more teas would be GREAT....and a few more coffee choices would help them out ALOT. It was hard to choose this machine over one that has dozens of choices..for now though, I am quite happy with it. The coffee is nice and smooth, hot and very quick. The amount of counter space it takes up is not a bother. Less space than the coffee maker I replaced and a better coffee. With the Creativa and the FrothPro I have my coffee habit back down to less than $1 a cup. Down from $3.75 a day from Starbucks.

I really liked the product but I didn't know that I was the one who was supposed to stop the water. It makes everything harder since if you don't stop when you reach the correct ammount of water, you end up loosing your capsules.
