Nespresso CitiZ by Krups XN720540 Coffee Machine, Fire Engine Red

The art of espresso by Nespresso

More than 20 years ago, Nespresso developed and patented an exclusive system for mastering the preparation of the perfect espresso, from the selection of the finest green coffee beans through to the moment of tasting. The perfect espresso is a complex alchemy between coffee of exceptional quality and freshness, and water at high pressure. It is these elements which give the coffee body and intensity, and reveal all the subtleties of the aroma. Coffee, machine and the club are the inseparable components of the exclusive Nespresso experience, which allows you to prepare a perfect espresso, cup after cup, time after time, in the comfort of your own home.

The machine

All Nespresso machines are equipped with a patented extraction system that guarantees up to 19 bar pressure.
Each element - water pressure, temperature and extraction duration - has been calculated with great precision. This ensures the aromas from each Grand Cru coffee are expressed, giving the coffee body and creating an exceptionally thick and smooth crema.

The Krups Citiz Fire Engine Red allows automatic and programmable water sizing for espresso and long black and has an energy saving mode. It features auto eject and a capsule container for up to 12 capsules, while its stylish red design will complement any kitchen.

The coffee

The hermetically-sealed aluminium capsules provide the optimum conditions to preserve and prevent oxidation of the 900 extremely volatile and sensitive aromas found in freshly-ground coffee. Simple in appearance, the capsule is the subject of continual technical improvement to optimise the machine’s extraction of the coffee.

Nespresso offers 16 Grand Cru coffee varieties, some of the finest in the world. Products of Nespresso Coffee Experts’ experience and inspiration, they come from diverse origins and offer a variety of aromas.

To achieve the perfect espresso, Nespresso Coffee Experts travel the world searching for only the finest green coffee beans, which offer the most exciting aromatic profiles. Nespresso then creates a blend from each of the varieties of beans, and develops a specific roasting and grinding profile.
