Level up your summer at home with Nespresso Vertuo

Nespresso has always made ways to bring all the best things about coffee—invigorating, convenient, and most importantly, high-quality—all at once in the comfort of your home. The new Vertuo Next machine adds a layer of versatility, being the first model in the Philippines that utilizes Centrifusion™ Technology, instead of the standard pressure system one might find in most coffee machines.

From an intense espresso to kickstart your day to a customized iced latte that gets you through the summer heat, there are endless ways to level up your at-home coffee experience, coupled with enjoyable activities to go with every café-quality cup.

With your Espresso (Altissio, Voltesso, or Il Caffe), bring your TikTok summer home inspo to life. An easy espresso is just what you need to get those creative juices flowing, whether you’re simply rearranging a room or giving a focal point in your home a full makeover. Look online for inspiration without having to break the bank: Mix and match linens you currently own, or update your set with one or two statement pillows or a throw blanket. Sprucing up the place is easier than you think—almost as easy as the Vertuo machine’s one-touch system.

Warm up your K-drama marathon with the new Barista Creations (Golden Caramel, Sweet Vanilla). Once you’ve got your nook just the way you want it and your to-watch (or to-rewatch) list set up, fuel your kilig even further with a quick, expertly crafted Nespresso signature to go with your snacks from your neighborhood K-mart. Those heartbreaking scenes will be just a little more bearable with a sweet but strong cup to get you through the inevitable tears.

Bring your Double Espresso Dolce Iced Latte on your errands to #Boss your way through. What can’t an iced latte do? Take it with you to that face-to-face meeting, or on your quick grocery run for summer vegetables. Pop it in your Nespresso Nomad Travel Mug to complete the experience. Bonus errand: Take your used Vertuo pods in the provided recycling bags to your nearest boutiques at Ayala Center Cebu, Mitsukoshi (BGC), One Bonifacio High Street Mall (BGC), The Podium, Power Plant Mall, and Robinsons Magnolia.

By dropping off used capsules, customers give both elements—the coffee grounds and the aluminum casing—their second life. You can also drop off your capsules at any Nespresso pop-up store, or have them picked up when you order online—it’s your good deed for the week done and dusted.

Spice up your meals and experiment with food pairings. It’s your kitchen—there are no rules apart from those you make. Take your coffee beyond breakfast or dessert with the Vertuo Discovery Assortment, with a variety of roasts and intensities—from light and sweet Espressos to darker blends that lean earthy or velvety—to go with just about anything you whip up at home. Try a creamy mushroom pasta (oyster mushrooms are in season!) with a medium-light roast coffee, courtesy of Ethiopia Master Origins; level up your avocado toast with a hot Melozio; or experiment with making a coffee-infused butter to put some sizzle on a steak recipe.

Bring the café experience to your own backyard for your family and friends to enjoy. Once you’ve mastered a couple of recipes, it’s time to share them with your loved ones. The Vertuo machine is so easy, your guests could even take their coffee into their own hands, crafting their cups to their liking. Alternatively, you could go ham with the Craft Brew (535 ml) to serve up to five cups of smoky, full-bodied coffee at a time, to recreate that café moment at home.

What stands out about the Vertuo Next system is, ostensibly, in the results. The Centrifusion effect is that of a richer flavor and a longer-lasting, even more, pleasant aftertaste, making every cup a versatile one. Keep it hot or pour over ice, depending on the season or your preference—you really can’t go wrong.

Just as coffee keeps the world turning, so does Nespresso maintain a virtuous cycle from bean to cup and beyond. The versatility of both the Vertuo range and the materials Nespresso invests in ensure that the possibilities are endless; the range is now available for you to purchase and experience. Click ‘Add to Cart’ on their e-commerce page, or visit any Nespresso boutique store, pop-up, or certified machine retailer in Metro Manila and Cebu to get your hands on this latest innovation.
