For serious coffee fans without a lot of space, Nespresso's new CitiZ packs all of their first-rate-espresso-making punch into a machine with a footprint that's nearly half the size of their other models. Like the Latissima, Antoine Cahen from Les Ateliers du Nord in Lausanne, Swtizerland designed the slim architecturally-inspired coffee-maker, lending an art deco feel that comes in two versions. The Nespresso CitiZ, at just five inches wide, keeps it basic with a single head espresso machine, while the CitiZ & Milk features a built-in Aeroccino, Nespresso's highly efficient and superlative milk steamer.
Use of the machine wins points for dead-simple operation that yields delicious long and short espressos with impressive crema. A top-loading slot drops a pod into the machine, which applies Nespresso's 19 bars of pressure to make the coffee. Below the spout there's a cup tray, which flips up to accommodate larger beverages and a drip tray catches any spills.
The machine drops the pod into a compartment for neat disposal and the water container in the rear also minimizes mess and its one-liter capacity makes for a low-maintainance appliance.
