For those wondering - the only real difference between the deluxe and regular vertuo is the size of the water tank and some of the material for certain parts of the machine. I haven't heard complaints about either in regards to the differences, but I do like a bigger water tank so that was my reasoning for spending the extra! Thank you all as always for supporting the channel :)

I have one of these in red with the smaller water tank which is great for my smaller kitchen. I love the electronic lid. I've had it for 4 years. Never had a single problem with it. I did demos of Nespresso machines in retail stores as a part time gig for years (it was so fun) and I just did NOT like the machines with the manual locking lid. I found them clunky and not as pretty. And there was always a lot of liquid in the pod holder after the brewing cycle finished. I thought the coffee tasted watered down too. That's just me though. I love my machine and hope it lasts forever. ☕💙

That’s awesome!! I’d happily do a part time gig demoing Nespresso machines too😂❤️ so glad you mentioned the other type of machine as I’ve heard your same sentiment from a lot of other people regarding the manual lid locking vertuo machines!!

Great content! I make a lot of milk based drinks and I have to go with next or pop since they have milk-friendly extraction. I can for instance get a double espresso from a mug pod. I agree the plus is more reliable and it’s unfortunate that it isn’t compatible with milk-friendly extraction.

[@lilizzy428]

Yes that extraction feature is one that I thought was always really cool about the pop and next!!🤩

[@lilizzy428]

Yes! It was my first one and I love it!!

How do you reuse the pods?

[@lilizzy428]

Generally you can reuse them by keeping the old Nespresso pods you brew and cleaning out the grounds (I use a utility knife to cut the Nespresso aluminum film off the top, dump out the grounds, and hand wash the pods like I would with any dish). After drying, you can then get your favorite store bought beans and grind them finely at home for espresso or buy your favorite pre-ground espresso and fill the pod. They have kits on Amazon (I have the GEESTA one) where they have aluminum stickers that you can then stick on the top to cover the pod and pop it in the machine and brew. I’ve liked it, but it’s definitely more work than just buying them - if you’re looking into a kit/trying to refill the pods I have the kit I use linked on my Amazon storefront and a video posted on my channel here that shows you how to use the GEESTA kit 😁
