Just about to buy one of these and then ran into your review.... thanks for it!!!
Glad we could help. Hope you like whichever one you went with!
I’ve got the Krups machine (branded as Breville though) as a second machine in my home office and it’s fantastic. So compact.
Yeah they are a great 2nd machine option aren't they 👍
Had to by a new machine and found this one on Amazon. Very happy with it.
Great to hear 👍🏼
Thanks good vid mate, the only thing i could think of would be noise comparisons? I picked up the slick black style one today. I preferred the black one too but very close decision, it was a tough call. 🙂☕♨️
Next got to get a milk frother. Ps also comparisons on what other pods yhat arent nespresso that still fit in with them that people could try.
I bought the mini black one today. It comes with a box with 14 pods to taste different flavours. I put pod inside and run water twice so expresso is not too concentrated (my option). Really like it. Water hot. Does the job. Good for my office.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Magimix looks like the better machine. Thank you for the video!
Yeah that's the one we still have. Glad it helped 👍
If you take the Pixie , Citiz and the Essence Mini (and even the Magimix)....all pod machines with 19 bar pressure .... would I right be in assuming the espresso will taste exactly the same ?
If so you seem to pay more just for the look of the machine and how big a cup you can fit under the machine .
That's a really good question! I'll include a taste test when I compare the Essenza with the Citiz but I'd imagine that there's a lot involved like quality of the components, brew time, even amount of coffee being used if we're talking about more than just Nespresso. Will do a little more research but maybe someone with more technical knowledge will be able to chip in with a better answer here.
Thanks for your review. I'm thinking buying Krups. It's been sold with a discount at a local store. I just would like to mention that while both of the machines are Nespresso Essenza Mini, the Magimix's submodel is D30 and Krups' - C30. That's where difference in their form comes from.
Cheers for the extra info 👍🏼
Would you pls help with one question? do you find any difference when you make coffee (specifically in creame or froth) in the bigger models than when made in the smaller mini model?
Hi there. We did notice a difference to be honest in that the bigger machines - citiz etc. - seemed to produced a more full bodied coffee (less watery) with a thicker crema.
Do any of the bigger machines allow Nespresso compatible pods
im a little confused about the differences but under the same name. was eyeing the essenza mini and watching videos on youtube and both designs pop up. is one older than the other? or is it regional differences?
Great video. Better than QVC. Answers a lot of my questions. Will be interesting when you compare it to your main machine and a temperature, taste test would be good as well.
Better than QVC 😂 Glad it helped Jeff. Think you were looking at the Inissia weren't you but haven't managed to get hold of that yet. Will definitely include those tests in the Citiz comparison and will try and get some see through espresso glasses too, so people can see the espresso crema better.
Thank you for this comparison. Very useful !!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks 🙂👍🏼
Very useful! Exactly what I'm looking for. I think in Australia those models are recycled/rebadged? as the Delonghi and the Breville essenza.. They're both on sale atm and I'm trying to decide between the two. Like the smaller size, but like the white colour... Hmmmmm hard to decide but nice to see in comparison
Hi 👋 As I understand it these machines are just branded differently in different countries but are the same internally and often made in the same factory. Hope this helps and would be great to hear which one you go for if any 🙂👍🏼
good video sir the new machines have gone to the diffrent pod shape i sent it back
Yeah you can still buy the original Nespresso machines but they do seem to be promoting the Vertuo machines more these days
Exactly what i needed, thanks.
What pods do you use for the Magamix, can you get them in most supermarkets? Not sure if each machine uses different ones!
Really useful and honest review. Thanks!
Which one is less noisy plz?
thanks for this video i have the white one amazing super happy with it!!!!
Great to hear! Think that's the one we'll be keeping.
@@A2BProductions excellent!!
hello. Which one is noisier? I really want to bye coffee machine, but i don't know which one to choose, there are so many :(
Hi, there shouldn't be much difference between these two as they are supposed to be the same machine on the inside. We did make a noise test video where we compared a lot of the Nespresso machines for noise in case that helps at all. Here's the link - czcams.com/video/cfGRIxzRym8/video.html
@@A2BProductions thank you
i'm a proud owner of magimix (but in Asia it is manufactured by DeLonghi for Nespresso) and it's really worth it! Value for money
Glad you like yours Eric, seems like an impressive little machine!
hello. what reason is the result of extraction different? d30 has more crema than c30
Is there a noise difference? Which one is quiter?
The honest answer is that there is no difference between them other than design. Neither machine is made by magimix or krups they are made by a company for Nespresso who krups and magimix have licensed their name to since they are two brands synonymous with coffee in the UK, the same machines would be branded delonghi in the USA since that's the more common brand, but the only input magimix and or krups have is the design of the exterior the internals are the same and they are built in the same factory like all of Nespresso machines bar the latissima and creatista I believe
Yeah I heard this about the Pixie machines yesterday but didn't wan't to say it unless I knew for sure. Think they mentioned Breville is another brand that goes on too. Thanks for your input 👍
Krups = Breville
Magimix = DeLonghi
Your big black Krups =Breville
Big Silver Krups = DeLonghi
Hi, between the 2 machines, which is quieter? Thank you!
Hi 👋 As I understand it they’re actually the same machine just with a different casing, so there will probably be minimal difference in the noise. Hope this helps.
Thank you so much! @@A2BProductions
Which one has a low noise when making the coffee?
I only have the Magimix one now but to be honest the essenza mini is a quiet machine in general. We have a video on the channel where we tested the noise level of a few different Nespresso machines including the mini in case that helps.
Many thanks! Informative, unbiased, and really useful. Thanks to you and your family!
Thanks Claire, really appreciate that 👍🏼
Huge difference
Have you had any problem with the water tank? Mine seems to move fairly easy and I don’t know if it’s a problem or if all of them move. I have the essenza mini!
It's not something that's stood out to me but we didn't keep the Krups one for long. It's not a machine we use every day but will take another look next time I do. The Magimix definitely seemed a bit more solid.
Small question, I too bought a pre-own Nespresso original machine. Did you clean it prior to using the machine (running the water through the machine) ? If so how do you do that ? My machine is your "Krups" machine, it's on it's way and I pray the previous owner sends me the manual as well.
Hi there, to run water through to clean it you could just press the lungo button and run a couple of cycles through with no pod in. You could also descale it to remove any limescale using a descaling kit. We have a video showing how to descale on the channel if that helps.
@@A2BProductions Thank you so much for all your help
Just been given the exact same model as your magimix and wondered how you descale? Thanks
Hi there. We do have a descaling video on the channel but think for descaling the essenza mini you need to hold the espresso and lungo button together for 5 seconds - instead of 3 seconds like you do on the Citiz - then the process should be the same as is on the video - czcams.com/video/DrRc5AyQgyk/video.html That's what the online manual seems to state anyway, hope it helps.
Just put the machine on a chopping board or something then the travel mug will fit.....
So after a while, was the essenza mini (on the right) still more bubbly & less attractive? :)
Which is the better machine -
Vertuo Plus or Citiz
For us Citiz mainly because we prefer the taste of the OriginalLine coffee. Our Vertuo Plus is still good if you like the Vertuo capsules more, though.
thanks for sharing that useful review, almost perfect (should be a little bit shorter to get perfect) but it was REALLY useful for me ! I choose the stable one :-)
Glad it helped and cheers for the feedback 👍🏼
Hi there. I'm considering buying the Magimix. Just wondering... how do you rate the temperature of the coffee? I read somewhere that the Krups was valued for nice and warm coffee. Is the Magimix similar in that respect? Thanks in advance for your help :)
From what I've been told I think the actual machine is the same on the inside and it's just the design / aesthetics that's different. So one machine shouldn't be any hotter than the other. Hope this helps.
Very good and informative video.. thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful!
Travel mug too high for your machine.. 3D print enthusiast: *my time to shine has come!*
amazing how many nespresso machines you've been collecting, do you take turn to use all of them (except the krup one you mentioned u've never used it before)
Hi there. My wife mostly uses the VertuoPlus and I use my original Citiz machine. Just wanted a little one for the bedroom for when family come and stay again (eventually😂) and I fancy a coffee before I face the day/kids 😅 Will likely sell the krups one on unless I find it will be useful for another video.
Good video, thanks a lot
After watching this and your refillable pods I’ve ordered one the mini from Lakeland I can’t wait for the next 20 percent offers .... from what I can make out they both made in french factory.... have u got one for your toilet lol
Haha, I haven't but don't go putting ideas in my head 😂 Hope you like your machine.
Can you use compatible pods with both of these?
Hi there, yes you can 👍
Thanks for review. Is Krups more plasticky casing wise?
No problem. Yeah I'd say so. Just that litlle bit more flimsy.
A2B Productions thanks. Which did you keep?
We kept the Magimix. We also have a video where we compare the Magimix Essenza Mini to the Pixie and the Citiz in case that's of any use. Know they're a big price jump from the mini, though.
Perfect review thank you!
nice video. I decid to buy magimix！
How to remove the water tank
thank you very much, very useful. Greetings from paris
Thanks, glad it helped 👍🏼
Sorry which makes the better coffee ??
Hi. They both make the same coffee as from what I've been told they are the same machine internally.
thanks for this very helpful :)
Great to hear, thanks 👍
Can you make lungo as well?
Yes you can 👍
which one produces more coffee foam?
The actual machine inside is supposed to be exactly the same for both units, so I'd imagine they're the same in that area.
What are the mugs that you said about at the start?
Hi there. The small espresso cups I used are the Nespresso Pure Collection ones and the bigger mugs are the Nespresso Origin Collection Mugs. Hope that helps and we have unboxing/reviews of both on the channel if you want to take a closer look at any of them.
Thank you 👍🌼
Which one do you prefer so I can order mine Sir.
We preferred the Magimix, just seems more sturdy and stable.
Are they all reprogramable?
Yes we have a video on how to reset the cup sizes if you need to. It's pretty simple 👍
Dont forget the taste test. DO they taste different? one more bitter than other?
Hi I love your videos and it has greatly helped me become a Nespresso Fan and Geek. I purchased a Nespresso Essenza Mini by Magimix after following your video, however sadly I broke its water tank and in my country the only spare available for the water tank is the one by Krups for the Essenza Mini, will this Krups Essenza Mini water tank fit in the Magimix model as both look the same? Your response will be really helpful to me :)
Yes
How tall is the mixing glass that just fits under?
Hi there, listed as 12.5cm tall on the website . Hope this helps.
thanks, this is excellent news, should work for my favourite mugs with no problem!
Great video btw!
Cheers David, glad it helped!
Video could be a bit more concise but good content
Cheers and will take the feedback on board 👍🏼
watch on x1.5 - x2speed - i do this with all vids saves so much time! (great vido tho ty boss!)
Its nespresso why the ward magimix ?? It is fake?
Hi 👋 No it's not, just one of the brands licensed to make and sell Nespresso machines 🙂
Just replace the word '''woman" every time he says machine or the name of the machine. 🤣🤣🤣
Exactly what i needed, thanks.
Glad it helped 👍🏼
