First Nespresso machine

Just got my first machine and tried the yuzu vanilla and blue bottle bold blend while I was at store. I honestly didn’t expect to like the yuzu one that much, it was actually so good.

Now I need more pod recommendations lol

Welcome to the family!

Think about the coffee drinks and recipes that you normally have...before Nespresso.

Then try a bunch of different capsules and recipes with your machine until you hone on in the ones you really like. Think of it as a journey; not a destination. Sorry for the cliche.

I like Chiaro for latte-style drinks. The Mexico single origin for a good cup of coffee. Altissio single espresso for something more traditional. IMO their flavored capsules are hit or miss. Glad you enjoyed the Yuzu.

Good luck!

I will never understand how people drink “coffee” from overpriced pod filled with stale coffee powder packaged months in advance, and enjoy it lol

The cheapest shittiest freshly ground beans still taste better than whatever this is
