In this video, I'm going to be reviewing and testing out the Nespresso Vertuo Next,
together with the Aerochino 3. So let's get started.
The Vertuo Next measures at 12.5 inches tall, 14.7 inches in depth, and 5 and a half inches wide.
Open the lid and that brings it to about 18 inches tall.
It comes with a 1.1 liter or 37-ounce water tank
and lid. Just make sure to attach it properly by clicking it into place.
And here you have the removable container and drip tray where the used capsules fall into.
So here we have the cup support and the cup support is made of plastic.
It seems very thin and very light and it measures at three and a half inches diameter.
It is height adjustable. The top position giving me about two and a half inches from the drip.
Unfortunately, I can't get my three-inch mug which is also 6oz.
I have to move it to the middle level which gives me four inches height
and the lowest level gives a space of six inches.
So I can just about fit my five and a half inch mug which is also 16oz.
There are five virtual capsule sizes. Ranging from an espresso 40ml to an Alto 414ml.
And a two-minute auto shut off feature.
Before you use the machine for the first time, you're gonna need to do a cleansing brew.
So fill up the water tank with fresh water and then place a container or a jug enough
to hold at least one liters underneath the coffee outlet. And then switch the machine
on and you should see a slow blinking light while the machine is heating up.
Once the machine is ready,
the light will be steady and you need to press it three times within two seconds.
And then be prepared to be startled. Because this machine is loud!
And I'm not kidding you, it is loud! It's like a jet about to take off!
Oh my goodness, I'm sorry. It just startled me so much. I wasn't expecting it.
So if you are new to Nespresso be prepared of the loud sound that it is gonna make.
And I don't know if it's just the Vertuo Next because this is my first time I'm
using a Nespresso machine. I don't know if any of the earlier models also make a loud sound.
If they do, please do drop us a comment below because I would
love to know if this is just how Nespresso makes their machines.
But yeah, it definitely gave me a startle for sure. Yeah, it almost sounds like my
washing machine during a spin cycle. Seems to be working really hard, the machine does.
Anyways this is going to take about seven minutes to run. So I'm gonna
leave it to do its thing. And I'm gonna open up my Aerochino3 in the meantime.
And if you guys are new to my channel do consider subscribing. I bring out videos every week.
The aerocinnora comes with this little spring that you can just pull out
and then separate the parts to give them a good wash after every use.
Just be sure to put both parts back together securely before putting it into the
Aeroccino. And when you put it into the base of the aerocinno, it'll connect magnetically. And
it looks like my cleansing brew is all done. So I'm just going to throw this water out.
So back to the Aerocinno. It measures at seven inches tall,
but inside you're only going to be using the top three and a half inches. The bottom part
is most likely the motor. And inside you'll see two markings the lower level being to
froth milk so you can add up to four ounces and the top level eight ounces for no froth.
The vertuo next does come with wi-fi and bluetooth features but it's not
required to operate the machine and i will be covering all of this in my next video.
Okay, I'm gonna make a Bianco Leggero which is an 80ml double espresso. I'm gonna pop my six
ounce mug on the cup holder and try to unlock the lid but I'm gonna warn you that it is not
as easy as it looks in the Nespresso adverts. It's actually quite stiff the lid is. Also,
quite heavy compared to the rest of the machine. I think most of the weight is in the lid.
And then push the lid down to close it. Again,
it's quite hard to even push down and to lock it into place. I'm having to use two hands
and even sliding the lever into the lock position is quite stiff.
I'm hoping this will loosen up a little after each use. Press the button and it
will start doing the heating process first and also reading the barcode on the capsule.
So for this 80ml double espresso it took about 20 seconds before the coffee started coming out
and I'm trying to get a better shot of the coffee coming out
so my apologies for all the camera movements.
So the whole process from the moment you push the button till
the very last drop takes about 76 seconds for a double espresso 80ml
and just a quick temperature test it's showing around 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Not really hot at
all. And here you can see the crema on top which is what Nespresso is known for. It creates this
layer of foam on top which is actually the oils that are separated from the coffee.
So when you unlock and open the lid you'll see the capsule automatically drop into the container
and the container can hold up to 10 espresso size or six coffee-sized capsules.
I'm going to use my Aerocinno for the next cup. I'm going to pour in 4
ounces of milk up to the first level.
To make cold milk or froth then hold the button for 2 seconds until it turns blue
otherwise press it once and it will turn red for hot froth milk.
(Whisper) and it's so quiet you can't even hear it!
And it took about one minute 20 seconds to froth the milk.
Let's open it up and there you have it, lovely froth.
Okay I'm gonna make a 230 ml Caramel Cookie which is about 7.7 ounces and it took about
25 seconds for the heating process and for the barcode reading before the coffee came out.
And I don't know if you can see this but my mug is a little bit big for the cup holder that it's
sliding off from the vibration of the machine. So be careful when you're using wide mugs on here
because there isn't a lot of support especially if you put the cup holder on one of the higher
levels, there's a bigger chance of it sliding off and then 76 seconds for the coffee to dispense.
So in total the whole process took about let's say one minute and 30 seconds.
Okay and I'll add my hot milk to this now
unfortunately I won't be presenting any designs today other than a dollop of foam for you!
Okay, now I'm going to make a Reversal by pouring the milk first and I'm going to
use the Hazelnut Muffin. So using my editing software I'm going to reduce
the sound of the coffee machine so you can enjoy the brewing process.
Here you can see the four layers. The milk, the coffee, the crema, and then the froth on top.
And remember to empty out the Nespresso capsules from the container.
And here you can see all the piercings made by the machine to extract the full flavor of the coffee .
The drip tray will also have a lot of liquid in there. So you'll need to wash that out as well
and also the base of the machine where the container sits, be sure to wipe that down.
And also the cup holder. And I will be covering the cleaning aspects and setting up your
preferences in my next video. So be sure to subscribe for that.
