Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee and Espresso Machine by DeLonghi, Gray Overview The Nespresso Vertuo Next by DeLonghi is a big-time single-serve coffee and espresso machine that will take up next to no space on your kitchen or office countertop. The Vertuo Next is capable of producing alto, mug/coffee, gran lungo, espresso and double espresso cup sizes via small, medium and large capsules included with every purchase. For espresso, use the small capsule, for gran lungo and double espresso, use the medium capsule and for alto and mug/coffee, use the large capsule. Each capsule delivers the finest roast and ground coffee sealed in a single-serve portion for optimal freshness. Just insert a capsule, close the lever and let the Vertuo Next do the rest. Features like integrated automatic blend recognition allows the Vertuo Next to recognize each blend and automatically adjust brewing parameters by reading a barcode on the rim of each capsule. This, in conjunction with Centrifusion patented intelligent extraction technology, takes the confusion out of brewing your favorite blend. When activated, the capsule is spun rapidly to blend ground coffee with water and produce excellent coffee, crema and espresso everytime with no need to manually change settings. An automatic power off function shuts your machine down minutes after the last coffee brewed, while both the 37 ounce water container and drip tray are removable and the used capsule container is able to house 10 capsules.
