I love nespresso. best coffee maker ever. But now with bluetooth connection you can schedule coffee from your phone, get alerts when capsules are missing and more...want to buy a new machine

@ourielohayon The best coffee maker ever, really?
@ourielohayon I don't think you can fully automate to schedule coffee. In my understanding, you still have to add the capsule manually:

@zacdavies for a machine you can take home at this price: 100%

@ogirginc you can schedule a coffee. see min 1.30"

@zacdavies @ourielohayon After 5 years in Brighton, UK, I've become a coffee hipster, so I can't have “capsule coffee” anymore. Would take a french press or aeropress and some fresh beans over capsule any day :)

@itibz @zacdavies the ratio time spent/convenience/quality is clearly in favor of nespresso. in addition (and that s personal) nespresso take over any drip/french press. the only thing that takes over for me are true italian espresso coffee machine with fresh pressed coffee beans and steam pressure (illy and co..)

@ourielohayon that's true: I do agree that this is incredibly convenient 😄
@ourielohayon I wouldn't call that scheduling; you still have to put coffee pod manually (or am I missing the part it gets added automatically?).

@ogirginc well you set a timer and get to wait until it s ready. technically this is scheduling

@ogirginc @ourielohayon Was just thinking this. They should have come up with a solution to really tip this over into "automated" land. Even something as simple like a gun clip, but with pods (order TBD by the user).
@ourielohayon Well, technically, Air-Charge is wireless charging! :) @wuss I agree, but aesthetically it might not look good enough for a premium product like Nespresso machines.

@ogirginc @ourielohayon I agree

@ourielohayon @zacdavies Agreed. Even if you pick up a used espresso machine on craigslist, without a quality grinder, Nespresso still has it beat. The combination of convenience, variety, ease of use, and quality make Nespresso an excellent option for average consumers.

@wuss @ogirginc @ourielohayon This would make for an EXCELLENT open-source 3D-printing project.

@nnezhat @ourielohayon Guess as an Australian we're all just coffee snobs :) Given that we're the only country Starbucks failed in http://www.businessinsider.com.a...
