I agree with your concern at 2:32 about the standing water in the capsule holder… I wonder if it’s more sanitary to open the top of the machine right after making the coffee so the capsule goes straight in the bin hot and water doesn’t pool up in the capsule holder?? Does anybody know FOR SURE what the best practice is for this THIS MACHINE??? Also, if that’s the case, after making a coffee and flipping the spent capsule should I just push the top down or lock it WITHOUT A VERTUO Capsule? I wonder if not locking it all the way makes a difference in terms of airflow / evaporation when not in use???? Let me know!
I watched a lot of revirws before I bought mine. And all I heard about the next was problems. Not huge problems but bothersome problems. And I thought if I’m going to spend this amount of money on this, I think I would want the plus. And Costco had a deal on it. Where you get the machine, the frother, the starter pack of pods, 30 additional pods, plus a $40 off coupon on your first order.
I just bought this machine after having an amazing machine that the original size capsules for about 15 years! So far I like the new size capsules (vertuo size) and this machine but I do think the coffee ☕️ isn’t as hot as I expected - especially after adding a refrigerated creamer. QUESTION: Does THIS machine itself have a way to adjust the temperature of the coffee?? LMK - Thanks!!
I just had ours and was wondering - in the receptacle for used pods, do see any leaks there. I just did the initial rinse cycle (just got it today), and noticed that a wee bit if water leaked to the receptacle. I am a little worried I got a defective one. I’m sure no early user would notice this but since my year-old vertuoplus had leaking problems (thus the replacement and a different model), I was extra cautious about it.
@@PracticalWhimsy54 is your machine still working until now? Planning on purchasing one because there's a bundle with the Aeroccino 3, but I am worried that its not as durable as the original line. It seems most of the reviews I have watched experienced issues with the Next machine. How's the water inside the pod holder? Is it okay now? Sorry for the questions and the long comment.
@@lanalana7561 So far so good! I am not worried about the water in the pod holder as I swipe it out with paper towel. I also gently wipe down around the seal every time I am finished as well as a weekly run through clean.
I love the VL (Vertuo aka new line) for what I call "real coffee". There IS a difference between espresso grinds and coffee grind and the coffee produced by the Next is lovely and rich. I prefer the OL for the espresso variety and better crema. The OL also has great offerings of Lungo pods compared to the VL. Where the VL machine shines imo is the brewing of coffee and the cost savings for using double espresso pod vs using 2 pods with the OL for milk creations.
I find it very different. It is a totally different brewing process. OL has bar pressure brewing, VL has that centrifugal thing going on. I find that OL tastes a lot more like "real espresso" but the VL is also really nice and smooth. I like both for different purposes. OL for lungos and espressos, and VL for full sized coffee and gran lungos!
Hmmm Mine does not smell... I do wipe it out with paper towel each time. I also make sure I run the clean cycle weekly and then wipe it out. I have discovered that the water comes when the pre-heat water cycle is on.
Well I should have listened to everyone. Next is a piece of Crap. Mine leaked coffee all over the counter and then forevermore refused to read the barcode. Tried cleaning it. Pulled it apart and the inside was wet from coffee. Thew it out. Past warranty.
I am so sorry your eyes are so faulty that you were unable to see Mike T's comment about this above and the acknowledgment and apology about the error from Shani. Here's hoping your eyes don't keep letting you down,
I believe, from what I have observed that the water is generated when I first push the button to wake it up, it seems that a small amount is released from the puncture valve that may be left in the tubes from the previous brew. If I open the lid early I notice a few drips from the needle. After a short while it stops. Not enough to really bother me tbh.
Love the color Dark Chrome. I have one and so far, happy.
Me too. No issues with it if you maintain it.
I have the nespresso vertuo plus machine and i❤it so much
Well spotted about the residual water #nespresso

No. Unfortunately not. What you can do is preheat the creamer and brew the coffee into it.
@@PracticalWhimsy54 Thank you. That’s what I’ve been doing. Works so far.
I got a next machine today and i also have this water pooling in the pod holder.
It's nothing to worry about. It's just likely some of the water left in the tube that ejects when it is heating up. I just wipe it out.
Does anyone have coffee beans at the end of the cup?

No, it is normal to get some coffee/water in the drip receptacle. Just make sure to rinse it out every few days to keep everything fresh.
Thank you for the review!
My pleasure!
My machine also has water in the capsule chamber.
Yeah it is from when the machine initially heats up, some water left over in the line drips into the receptacle.
Have a good nespresso time !
Haha I always do!
Do you need to program the cup sizes or does it read the bar code? My first nespresso machine!
Sorry for the delay! As you probably have read elsewhere, yeah it has a barcode to program the temp and water flow~
Thank you for the review! Does it sound like a vacuum when you're making coffee? 😅
Lol yes it does!

I’ve had the original line for almost 20 years. How do you compare the original line coffee versus the new line ?

Shani Cochrane Thanks. This is very helpful. Yes, today I end up using two OL pods for a large coffee. I’ll check out the VL.

Nice review
Thank you! Cheers!
Mine also have water in the capsule holder
Nothing when it’s closed and turned off but when heating up there is ALWAYS water and it smells horrible 🤢
Hmmm Mine does not smell... I do wipe it out with paper towel each time. I also make sure I run the clean cycle weekly and then wipe it out. I have discovered that the water comes when the pre-heat water cycle is on.
My Vertuo Next leaked right,out of the box.
Damn.. sorry to hear that...
Is it the Vertuo Deluxe ?
Yes it is :)
Indeed. The looks of both Vertuo Next Plus models (Chrome and Dark Chrome) is awesome.
Well I should have listened to everyone. Next is a piece of Crap. Mine leaked coffee all over the counter and then forevermore refused to read the barcode. Tried cleaning it. Pulled it apart and the inside was wet from coffee. Thew it out. Past warranty.
It's a thermometer not a thermostat!!!

This is not normal the water sitting like that you should complain to Nespresso and get a new machine.

Ahahaha yes you are right!! I was nervous!
