Nespresso is undoubtedly the king of pod coffee machines. From their original series to their Vertuo range, they’ve consistently set the benchmark for what a good pod machine can do, and with the new Nespresso Vertuo Up, they’ve raised the bar again. If you’re in the market for one of the best pod machines that money can buy, then this one should be at the top of your list.
It’s been years since Nespresso has had a revamp on their Vertuo range, and the Vertuo Up arrives with a handful of genuinely impressive upgrades. For a start, they’ve increased how fast you can get your coffee with a three-second heat-up time, and included Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity via the Nespresso app. An iced coffee mode is there for the ice latte fans, and there’s even an option to customise brew strength and temperature. All that is before we start looking at the design upgrades, which include a slimmer body and enough space for a travel cup.
