As the name suggests, the Nespresso Essenza Mini is Nespresso's smallest coffee machine. This makes this Nespresso Essenza well-suited for small households. You can easily place your extra thin Essenza Mini on your countertop or on your desk in the study. With the adjustable water amount, you can easily make an espresso or lungo the way you like it. Note that you have to refill the water tank often if you make multiple cups of coffee in a row.
