Welcome to the smallest and most stylish Nespresso machine, Pixie. A smart little machine, which has an array of innovative and practical features, is energy efficient and, best of all, does it all without taking up a lot of space. Although this coffee machine looks small, it is powerful. The Pixie machine features two pre-set cup settings with reprogrammable cup volumes. As with all of Nespresso machines, perfect in-cup results are assured with a 19 bar pressure pump and thermo block heating unit producing a delicious and rich creama cup after cup. Nespresso began more than 25-years ago with a simple but revolutionary idea, to create the perfect cup of Espresso coffee with exquisite creama, tantalizing aroma and full bodied taste, just like skilled baristas. As the worldwide pioneer, Nespresso redefined the way coffee lovers around the world enjoy their espresso coffee through a unique combination of premium quality Grand Cru coffees, stylish coffee machines and exceptional customer service. To obtain the perfect espresso, Nespresso Experts seek out only the finest Grands Crus green coffees, which promise to offer the most tantalizing aromas. The virtuoso 'alchemists' compose the blend from these diverse origins and decide upon a specific roasting and grinding profile. You can, depending on the variety of different recipes, enjoy Nespresso with milk. When combined with creamy milk foam, you will experience a whole new variety of flavors.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Face-off: Rancilio Silvia vs. Nespresso Pixie w/out Frother
OVERVIEW: As a long-time coffee snob I couldn't miss the chance to smackdown these upstart espresso wannabees. Well, more fool me. I was no match for the charms of little miss Pixie; this cheeky wench promptly staked a claim on my valuable counter space, right under the wings of old matron Silvia.
BACKGROUND: I've had a Rancilio Silvia V1 for over a decade. Years ago I made the popular PID modification: a computerized thermostat for superior temperature control. I've replaced the boiler, twice, and the steam valve. I've upgraded its over-pressure valve and tuned it for optimum steam pressure. I don't just grind my own beans, I buy fair-trade single-origin 20 pound bulk bags and roast to perfection on a homemade roaster. I make at least four lattes a day, and grind through a pound of coffee a week. To be sure, the PID'ed Silvia is hardly the Rolls Royce of espresso machines, but it is the Toyota Camry: a tried and true performer; a middle-of-the road favorite. The Nespresso...

Sleek little gem of a machine
We have owned a Nespresso CitiZ machine for over a year and absolutely love it, but we use this Pixie machine at our business office.
In comparing the two machines, this is what we like better about the Pixie.
The top of the machine now includes a handle, which you raise up to open the chamber where the nespresso capsules go. Pulling the handle down closes the chamber and punctures the coffee pod. I'm not sure if it's the handle that makes the design better, but it brews consistently awesome shots with the new loading mechanism.
The thing looks friggin awesome. It's chrome body is sleek, slender, and has a subtle blue light in the front that actually makes it look really cool. I especially appreciate that when it runs low on water this blue light turns red so I never accidentally run it out of water. It takes up hardly any room on the counter as it's barely wider than my Starbucks...
Perfect shots. Every time, any time.
This is my second Nespresso machine, and my love affair with the company rages on. We have a Lattissima Plus at home, which is great for morning lattes, and is easy to clean, even with the milk attachment. This pixie is the perfect machine for work, where I wouldn't be easily able to store a milk dispensing system.
Like the Latissima Plus, the Pixie pulls perfect shots of espresso with a thick head of crema _every_ time. This is easily converted into an Americano, which is orders of magnitude better coffee than the recycled printer toner and battery acid my company dispenses from its "coffee" machine.
Like all Nespresso machines, the cleanup is as easy as can be - run a shot of hot water through after each shot of espresso, and you're done. Once the cup of runoff water cools off, I dump it in my office plant, so its soil never dries out.
The Nespresso pods are not cheap (ONLY...
