Features

Brewing a great tasting cup of espresso is faster and easier than ever with Nespresso’s unique capsule system. Combining a sleek modern style with a touch-and-go system, the Nespresso Essenza C100 looks great in the kitchen while fast tracking your daily coffee routine. The Essenza C100 brews espresso directly from Nespresso pre-ground, pre-packed capsules to eliminate the mess and worry that come with traditional coffee brewing. Just insert a capsule and press a button, and the C100 will deliver perfect espresso topped with thick, velvety crema in moments.

With the Essenza C100, you have 2 brewing buttons for a single or lungo (double) shot of espresso, and if you want, you can even program them to brew your preferred amount of coffee. When you're done, all you have to do is lift the handle on top of the machine and the spent capsule will automatically be ejected into the internal dump box. The Essenza C100 makes every step easy—from brewing to cleaning, so that no matter what you brew, you won’t need a grinder and you’ll never have to settle for store bought pre-ground coffee again.

The Nespresso Capsule System - The Essenza C100 is designed for use with Nespresso’s patented capsules, which are available in an assortment of gourmet blends and neatly pre-ground and packed for convenient single serving use. With Nespresso capsules, there’s no need for a grinder, and you can be sure you’re getting only the finest coffee, grown, harvested and roasted to perfection with traditional methods. Nespresso’s choice beans are then ground for the best extraction, and the coffee is packaged in hermetically sealed capsules to lock in freshness.

1-Touch Brewing - Making a cup of your favorite espresso with the Essenza C100 is easier than ever, with pre-programmed single and double shot brew buttons to deliver just the right amount of coffee. To begin, lift the lever on top of the machine and insert a Nespresso capsule. Next, close the lid and press the brew button. Since Nespresso makes capsules designed for both single and lungo (double) shots, you can be sure you’ll always get the right extraction with the preset brewing buttons. When you’re done brewing, just lift the top handle again and the Essenza C100 will automatically eject the used capsule into the built-in dump box.

Thermoblock Heating Element - The Nespresso Essenza C100 features a durable Thermoblock heating system to consistently deliver great-tasting espresso anytime you need it. The Nespresso heating system is designed for fast heat up time, so you don’t have to wait long to have that morning cup.

High-Pressure Pump System - With an integrated 19 BAR pump system, the Essenza C100 is among the most powerful espresso machines available. The heavy-duty pump ensures that you have plenty of pressure for the best extraction possible—fully capable of creating the thick, rich crema you expect from a well-pulled shot of espresso.

Steam Wand - Since the Essenza C100 does not have a built-in steam wand, you’ll need an external milk frother if you want to make lattes and cappuccinos. You can view our selection of independent milk frothers on our accessories page.

Removable Water Tank - The Essenza C100 features a clear plastic water tank, which is removable for easy cleaning and refilling. Located in the rear of the machine, the removable tank holds up to 34 oz, so you can brew plenty of espresso without needing to constantly refill.

Removable Drip Tray - Thanks to the mess-free capsule system, thee Essenza C100 requires very little cleanup. The drip tray is made of polished stainless steel and can be removed for easy cleaning. The used capsules are stored in a receptacle inside of the machine, which also can be removed and emptied with the drip tray.

Modern Design - Housed in durable ABS plastic, the Essenza C100 is practical and stylish. The exterior can easily be wiped down with a soft damp cloth to keep it looking new, and its curved frame creates a compact and complementary look for any kitchen. Accented with illuminated green brewing buttons and sleek silver trim, the Essenza C100 is sure to impress.
