Nespresso CitiZ & Milk Espresso Machine by De'Longhi with Aeroccino, Black

My citiz and milk is very much the older version. It has a plate that hides the two milk frother options under it and the milk frother is in a further back location. They say you can't take these machines apart. Not true. You do have to know about taking machines apart when it doesn't have screws but it is possible to fix. When you leave them in storage for 5 years they tend to block and for some reason the frother stopped spinning which was strange. Fixed the machine even at that level of buggered. Syringe 💉 surgery for the win. Back in the early days the coffee was kind of ordinary. Now you can get capsules from soooo many places. Surprisingly some of the cheaper options have ended up being pretty good. The new milk frother went straight in where the old one sat and works perfectly. Maybe I'll replace a capacitor on it later and get it going again cause that is all that seems to be wrong. Not sure if these new machines just don't last as well as the older ones but mine has had regular use for many years and has done around 200 capsules in the past month after getting it out of moth balls. So I can't complain.

In the past I have struggled with making acceptable coffee at home! Usually ended up burying one from a Cafe. Since purchasing my Nespresso I have been enjoying my coffee at home and had some wonderful flavours to choose from. I no longer buy my coffee from a Cafe and the money I save goes towards new and different flavoured pods.Love it.
