Manufacturer's Description
The Magimix Nespresso M100 espresso machine combines ease of use and advanced technology to deliver great results time after time. Impressive 19 bar pressure allows the perfect espresso everytime, while the stylish design of the unit makes it the perfect addition to any kitchen.
After your first taste, you will immediately appreciate the difference between an espresso and a filter coffee. Its flavour is stronger, its aromas more developed and its body thicker and more velvety. This is thanks to its unique method of preparation, which consists of passing water through finely ground coffee under high pressure and rapidly extracting the soluble substances. The quality of the results depends on various conditions: the measure of coffee, the pressure used, the water temperature, how finely ground the coffee is and the extraction time. Taking these conditions into account, using an award winning capsule system, Nespresso has created a process that allows you to prepare the perfect espresso.
The Magimix Nespresso M100 comes with a Aeroccino milk frother which can also be used to heat milk. Get perfect milk froth in just a few seconds. Maximum capacity: 75 ml (for milk froth preparation), 180 ml (for hot milk preparation). Diameter: 9 cm, height: 14.5 cm. Mains operated.

Makes wonderful coffee
This little machine and the separate frother make a great cup of coffee. You buy the coffee capsules from nespresso.com, and they work out at about 23p each - much cheaper than the £2.50 you would pay from Starbucks, and the coffee is just as good. It makes lattes, cappucinos and espressos. There are a multitude of different coffee strengths and flavours available, including some good de-cafs. Before discovering this machine, I bought a Nescafe Dolce Gusto and thought the coffee was awful. The two draw backs are now that I have this machine, it's spoilt me and I can't enjoy a 'normal' cup of instant coffee or one of the pre-mixed sachets any more, and every time someone comes to visit, they ask me for one of my great coffees. In fact since buying the machine, I've also bought one for the staff at work, my cousin's got one (she recommended it to me by insisting I taste one of it's lattes) and my mother in law is just about to buy one!
Fantastic little machine - no mess, great coffee
I once shared a flat with a friend who brought her traditional espresso machine to live with us. She was messy, and her machine was even messier. Hot milk spluttered everywhere and coffee grounds sat in drifts around my kitchen - it put me right off such machines. Now, many years later, my heart has been quite won over by this machine. It's tiny, wee, sits right next to my kettle and the whole time I'm out walking the dog each morning I think longingly about the coffee I'll have when I get home. Only trouble is I'm starting to have two coffees a day, sometimes even three.... and they are delicious.
You just switch the power button on and it heats up in a minute or two, ready to go. Then you pop in a pod of ready-ground coffee, slip a cup under the spout and press go. With a little practice you'll know which of the many Nespresso coffees you prefer, how much water, whether you want milk and so on. Yes the pod system is a little pretentious - you join the Nespresso Club and order pods 50 at a time which are delivered to your home (so you have to have somewhere to store the boxes). But it does taste really fresh and it's hugely cheaper than a Starbucks habit. No mess, the aeroccino makes great latte or capuccino when you're in the mood, and it's hot but not too hot to drink straight away.
I use the water from my water filter which (a) makes delicious coffee (London water is too hard to make really nice coffee) and (b) means I don't have to descale my machine. It's incredibly easy to refill the water supply and clean out the old coffee pods - I just wish I could find an easy way to recycle them.
I spent a couple of months deciding whether or not to buy it and then got it in January. Four months later I'm even more pleased with it than when I first bought it. A great product.
Great machine for the money
There is a review here that gives the M100 just one star and says that the machine makes 'tepid' cofee that is undrinkable with milk added - what a complete load of nonsense.
The M100 is a brilliant machine, it makes excellent espresso and when used with the Aeroccino makes excellent latte etc..
I previously owned a Gaggia Classic and whilst it made great espresso I have to say that the M100 is better and a lot less hassle.
Buy one today, you won't regret it - unless you like scalding hot coffee that is!
