I remember my first experience with Nespresso – during one of my stay in a five-star hotel and the Nespresso machine was available to use when I needed coffee. It was nifty and portable, and best of all, I got pretty decent coffee within a touch of the button.
The Nespresso Essenza Mini is just like that, but smaller and more attractive in three striking colours – red, green and white. The Essenza Mini is easy to carry around and fits perfectly into my daily routine where coffee is a must at 10am and 4pm. And given my crazy work schedule, I don’t have to do anymore coffee runs. Instead, I just press the magic button and voila! Coffee is served.
I didn’t find the Essenza Mini difficult to assemble at all and generally, I’m pretty bad in putting machines together. This one was pretty much “set” in the box. All I needed to do was attach the water container to the back of the machine and fill water into it. And plug in the machine to a power point.
You can pretty much use any Nespresso coffee capsules though if you’re adventurous, do check out their Barista Limited Edition range – Chiaro, Scuro and Corto. For coffee perfectionists, Nespresso also offers the Aeroccino which steams your milk like how they do in cafés. Alternatively, cold or room temperature milk works just fine. 
On weekends, I get a bit more creative (since I have more time) with my coffee and pastries. I like adding a bit of honey into my coffee as it gives a richer flavour overall. I love coffee with pastries so croissants and buns are a must for me!
Tell me, what’s your weekend routine? What pastries are a must-have for you when you’re having coffee? Also, what kind of coffee person are you? Milk-based or black? The Nespresso Essenza Mini retails at RM599 per unit. To find out more, click here.
