It does come with it
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It uses the original capsules and there was a package with an assortment of capsules included. Ours came with a frother which does work very well. We didn’t really need one.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It will make espresso or lungo (5oz/140ml) with the same capsule but not a regular cup of coffee. You can always add hot water by running one more time without a capsule. Mine came with the milk frother.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can buy Espresso or Capichino pods and yes I got the frothier with mine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The pods are the same, but you can order different types of coffee that go into the pod, and choose whether you have a "small" or "big" coffee. It essentially is deciding how much water goes through the pod, and different Nespresso coffees have different intensities. Some are for small amounts, like an espresso (a quarter cup), and some are called "lungo" which means they have more water and are essentially half a cup. There are other machines in the U.S. that now use bigger pods for the American preference for bigger cups of coffee, but this one uses the European size. The frother comes with this unit, but it has a separate power plug and is not connected to the coffee maker.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This unit does not make standard coffee. Limited to smaller expresso specialty coffee sizes, I believe 4 and 6 ounce. It only fits one type of pod the classic Nespresso pods. The milk frother is wonderful, I am extremely happy with mine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
