Nespresso Romeo - 1.jpg

Shakespeare's influence continues to impress me. Imagine Juliet (as a Nespresso pod of coffee) standing on her balcony, calling out to her beloved (coffee cup?). Such is the inspiration for the hip design of Nespresso's newest high end machine.

Available in September from Nespresso, $799 (retail).

Slightly more gourmet and environmentally-friendly than its ramen counterpart, each packet contains a half-ounce of organic Arabica coffee that, unlike other extracts, is a "live" product, formulated to retain freshness and flavor without the use of preservatives....
Simplehuman Single Cup Pod Brewer
Simplehuman, makers of well designed things for the kitchen and laundry room, have just launched their first kitchen appliance: The Single Cup Pod Brewer. Water is heated to 200º (considered optimal by many baristas) and forced through the single use coffee pods, which are widely available from most coffee suppliers.
