Nespresso Romeo by Evan Orensten
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. Simply pop a Nespresso pod with your preferred roast in the balcony, select the type of espresso/coffee you're in the mood for, and within a few seconds your beverage has been perfectly prepared. Available in September from Nespresso, $799 (retail).

Nespresso Lattissima: Hands-On Review
The Lattissima marks a successful collaboration between Nespresso and the Italian household appliance company De'Longhi. The new home espresso machine is capable of combining the perfect brew that results from Nespresso’s hermetically sealed capsule system with the perfect milk froth. By far the easiest-to-use home espresso maker we’ve tested, the Lattissima also makes the best-tasting coffee. Besides its sturdy construction, the device also boasts...

Delonghi Magnifica EAM3500
I know, I know, you'd like to make your own cappucino in the morning, but it gets a bit complicated and messy, and we all like to support the non-chain coffee shop in the hood anyway. But what if you could put some fresh coffee beans into your coffee machine. And a little water and milk. And press a button. And not only do...

Espresso Accessories
Who got an espresso machine for Christmas? I did—an Ascaso Dream if you must know. It doesn't work on its own though, so I'm currently kitting it out with a few choice accessories to get the whole barista thing just right. Aprons not included. For CH's hands-on reviews of coffee makers, see Coffee Classics and Coffee Innovations. Dualit Espresso Cups Made from stainless steel...

Coffee Classics
Last week, CH featured the latest in Coffee Innovations—from a coffee maker that displays weather forecasts to Nespresso's no-fuss, high-end Le Cube. This week we turn our attention to the classics, rounding up the best (and some of the more unknown) traditional ways to brew a cup of Joe. Leaving out cone filters and French Press (choices are more or less straightforward in those...

Java Juice
Only second best to an IV drip, Java Juice, a new coffee extract makes your next caffeine fix as instant— and as transportable and economical—as a Cup-o-Noodles. 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....
