We've had one for just over 2 years and drove/drank? it into the ground. Thankfully they are going to fix it under warranty as we are only 9 days out. Always made a good coffee and the internet order is handy especially if you have a friend or 2 who have the same machine you can group your orders. Also get a descaling kit as that helps.
As to flavours I like the stronger ones after nightshirt and the mid ones you've already named on normal days.
The Aldi #10 pods are not quite strong enough for me but I did discover that Gloria Jeans now sells a compatible pod that hits the mark.Quote:

I can confirm that the pod for the Aldi system are NOT the same as the Nespresso. Personal taste, but on a side to side tasting (someone I know was asking opinions, as he needed several, and would have been a decent saving), I much prefer the Nespresso.Quote:

Pod coffee is not real coffee.
Real coffee comes from fresh roasted beans, ground just before becoming the perfect cup :)
Pod coffee is the Blend43 of 2012 :D
I agree pod coffee is no match for a real coffee but it sure as hell beats instant
But by its very design...
It IS instant :)

My wife usd to be the boss of Nespresso NSW a few years back, Nestle shipped her over to pet foods but before she left they gave her a top model machine as a thank you,love the thing.
FOrtisso Lungo is very good for latte's, but get a good separate milk frother, Nestle have never got theirs right for us flat white and latte lovers...
