โ˜… Best PickA+Best Vertuo Mid-Range

Mid-range Vertuo with a motorized head, a 1.2 L (40 oz) movable tank and about 25-second heat-up. Brews espresso to 414 ml alto โ€” the everyday Vertuo pick for multi-mug households.

The Vertuo Plus is the Vertuo machine for daily, multi-mug use: a motorized head locks the capsule chamber, the 1.2 L (40 oz) tank can be moved to the side or back, and heat-up takes about 25 seconds, according to De'Longhi. It brews every Vertuo size from a 40 ml espresso to a 414 ml alto, and has a descaling alert. Compared with the Vertuo Next, you get a bigger tank and the motorized head in a wider body.

Pros

  • Large 1.2 L (40 oz) tank means fewer refills
  • Motorized head locks and opens the capsule chamber
  • Brews 40 ml espresso to 414 ml alto

Cons

  • No built-in frother โ€” an Aeroccino is needed for milk drinks
  • Vertuo capsules come almost entirely from Nespresso
