DeLonghi EN 80 CW Inissia Nespresso Vanilla Cream

Product Information

Note: for hard water descale twice per year. (If you don’t know what water type you have hard water tends to leave white marks in the water tank) We were surprised at just how loud the Inissia is when it’s extracting the brown stuff. Given that the Pixie is also very noisy in operation, it would appear that the smaller the Nespresso machine, the louder it is in operation. Despite it’s potential portability this is not a coffee machine you’d want to use on your desk at work. Well not unless you don’t mind annoying everyone else in the office. By doing so, you pre-heat your coffee cup and you rinse the extraction system for better coffee experience.

The Inissia might have a limited drinks menu, but the coffee it produces is just as good as from other Nespresso machines. It boasts the same maximum 19-bar pressure for its crema, and combined with warm frothy milk from the Aeroccino3, drinks can be tailored to suit. The espresso cup stand keeps your shot cup at the ideal level for extraction. If you want to use a larger cup, you can fold the stand up against the machine, allowing you to place your cup or mug on the counter while your coffee is delivered. While the Inissia represents the first rung on the Nespresso ladder, there’s much to like about it. In fact this compact capsule marvel produces coffee that’s far superior to many larger and more expensive countertop machines. Build quality The drip tray is hinged, so it can be flipped up to make room for large cups. This hinge is worth remembering – a few times during testing, liquid from the drip tray was spilled as it was emptied. The Inissia’s handy energy-saving mode will switch itself off if you forget.As well as a perforated removable drip tray, there’s an internal bin for used pods, so several drinks can be made before it needs emptying. The cable length is average at 33cm but gives a little flexibility as to where it’s positioned.

To calculate the average price, we add up the cheapest daily prices of the last 90 days and divide by 90. If you own an Essenza and Le Cube machine, lift the coffee lever and push it away from you. You can then press either cup button until water starts flowing from the spout. If no light, it means that this machine switches itself OFF automatically after 9 min (factory settings). This time can be changed to 30 min. The Inissia features a 0.7 L tank, accompanied by a capsule collection tray and a single cup station. The dimensions of 32.1x12x23 cm make it compact and easy to transport with its weight of 2.4 kg, perfect for any environment. The maximum power from the machine is 1,260 Watts, while the pressure reaches 19 bars. The equipment also includes the automatic stop function after just 9 minutes, which can be counted among the ecological features, and the adjustable controls useful for setting the desired quantity of coffee. Other Models to ConsiderPlace your preferred cup under the spout, then press and hold the cup button you would like to program. Water will begin to flow. While the shape of the Inissia isn’t the most exciting, one aspect that can’t be faulted is its worktop footprint. It’s tiny when compared to similarly priced machines and at just 12cm wide, there’s no kitchen that would be too small for it to squeeze into. The Inissia delivers a great shot of espresso, with a smooth texture and not a hint of bitterness. Considering its size and price, we expected there to be compromises when it came to the quality of coffee delivered, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Your machine has now been restored to approximately 1.35 oz. for the espresso cup and 3.75 oz. for the lungo cup
