Have just purchased a Magimix M190
Would like to know of any comments regarding ( and I know we all have different tastes ) as to readers preference of Nescaffe pods to use for a cappuchino. Also are there chocolate pods available ?
Thanks in advance

As far as I know that is the difference. Same technical specification.
In the US for example, there is just one type of machine and it is branded Nespresso and not Krups or Magimix.
Enjoy!

Hi Stephen,
All Nespresso coffee machines use the same capsule system developed by Nespresso.

I have received a Nespresso ES 50 coffee machine as a present. Which type of capsule does it use. Thank you for your prompt reply.

Overall a good machine and the coffee capsules are good products which (so far) have provided a consistent quality.
The machine looks good, produces coffee very quickly (even from start up), is very easy to use and the instruction manual is one of the better ones (yes I actually read it). To date (I have only had the machine for a month), my only complaints are with the design of the machines water tank lid and the used capsule container – drip tray assembly.
I have discovered the shape of the water tank and its lid and the absence of a lid handle means the lid can readily fall into the water tank. Not a huge problem but a pain if the tank has just been filled (especially if you have water quality issues and use bottled water).
As for the used capsule container – drip tray assembly. I think the manner in which they are connected/stacked (the capsule container simply sits on top of drip tray) means the capsule container will eventually fall when the capsule – drip tray assembly is being removed or replaced. I suspect a fall from an expected handling height to the floor will likely damage the capsule container.
These points aside, as stated I am happy with the machines look, build quality and ease of use.
I would recommend it.

After 4 capsules, the Nespresso Citiz with Milk overflows all over your work surface. It is supposed to cope with 10 capsules before you need to empty it. This is a serious design fault. My machine has been returned twice but is no better. A shame because the coffee is good
