Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
NESCAFÉ and KRUPS have joined forces to bring café culture into your home with NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto, a stylish, multi-coffee capsule system that will change the way you make, drink and think about coffee.
With 18 delicious varieties, NESCAFÉ Dolcé Gusto delivers coffee shop quality, whether you prefer a frothy cappuccino, shot of espresso, a multi-layered latte macchiato or an aromatic americano.
NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto combines the precision and technical perfection expected from KRUPS with excellent coffee, to create a must-have kitchen accessory for the busy modern lifestyle. The NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Piccolo is a newer, more compact design, which comes in both red and white. It may be small, but with the same 15 bar pressure as the original machine, it is powerful. The Piccolo features unique Thermoblock technology, which heats the water as required, ensuring fresh water for every cup.
The removable water tank makes it super easy to refill, and the removable drip tray makes it easy to keep looking pristine. A built-in magnet in the pod holder also makes the Piccolo extra safe to use.
The NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto system from KRUPS uses the kind of high pressure normally found in professional machines. Simply lift the lever, pull out the pod holder and pop in a specially-designed capsule of 100 per cent roast and ground arabica coffee. Push the holder back, press down the lever and you'll hear a pop. Move the knob to hot or cold and hey presto! Great tasting connoisseur coffee in a matter of seconds. You can even choose exactly how strong you want your cup - no hassle, no mess – which means you can relax and enjoy your favourite drink.

Customer Reviews
We've toyed with buying one of these coffee machines for a while having had the filter machines then falling back to a simple cafetiere. This comes over as the entry level machine and at around £55 (when on offer) it is well worth the money.
Easy to use, nice and quick and clean. It's also not much bigger than a normal kettle so takes up very little space and can be left out for easy use. I'd advise taking care with the plastic water holder on the back that you have to remove to fill as it's probably the only bit of the machine you might chance breaking. Other than that it's nice and sturdy.
You put cold water in and it heats it as it makes the drink. The coffe is nice and hot, but drinkable almost straight off so no hanging around waiting for it to cool to get your 'fix'.
If you have to make any moans it probably will be about the capsules and cost. Locally we can get 16 in a box for about £3.86 which is what? About 25p a cup, so not too bad for a pretty tasty cup of coffee - although you might need to invest in some smaller cups as some of the flavours are designed only to half fill a normal mug.
Where it comes into its own are the flavours with a milk capsule as well as the coffee capsule - but bear in mind you only get 8 cups from each box as you need to use both a coffee capsule and a milk one to get the coffee right, so around 48/50p a cup. These types, though, do fill a mug (although mostly with lovely foamy milk).
Nescafe have a very good site dedicated to the machine, and you get a sample set of capsules to start and registering the machine gets you points to get more. You need to spend about £35 to get free delivery on capsules, but to be honest, the way the wife is going, that should be no problem.
I bought this as a treat for myself as ive been looking for a coffee machine like this for a while. After doing some research to determine which machine to get (it was between the tassimo system and this) i chose the dolce gusto based on reviews and their website which to me felt more customer friendly than others.
After looking around (and waiting till the jan sales!) i found this model at only £45! Bargain! Brilliant service from Amazon meant i recieved the product much earlier than expected.
Machine: cute, quirky little machine, easy and quick to prepare, clean and use.
Pods: easy to use once you get the hang of them, great tasting drinks, lots of variety, can seem expensive but if you bulk buy on the dolce gusto website you get free delivery and bonus points to get more freebies!
My only gripe is the cup sizes, i have my fave mug which is huge so it took me longer to figure out when to stop the machine to get the right taste. However this is a small issue which can be rectified by testing and tasting!
Fully reccomend the piccolo as a stylish addition to any kitchen.
