How to the could never .
Hi guys .
Welcome back to my channel .
And if you're new here , welcome .
My name is Vanessa and don't forget to subscribe and hit the like button .
And um yeah , so today's video is a video that I've been wanting to do for quite some time now um because it has been sorry if I'm looking over here , I have my monitor .
So anyway , this video I've been wanting to do because um it's been requested and a lot of people ask me so many questions and I was like , let me just do a video on this to invite you guys to an amazing , amazing thing .
So today I will be talking about my beautiful and espresso machine .
So this espresso machine is I've had it .
So this um this machine I've had it since November of 20 .
So this is what the machine I've had since November of 2019 .
So I actually got it on Black Friday last year and it was the best investment I could have made .
So um I actually got this as a bundle with the froth and this and the pot samples that it comes with for $99 .
Yes , 99 .
So it was a Black Friday deal .
They were all for 100 bucks .
So I had to get my hands on it again .
It came with the um , espresso .
So it was like the , what do you say ?
Like the pack , the duo .
So , yeah , I got my hands on it .
I was so excited and it's been the best investment .
These usually run a bit about 203 $100 with the .
So the fact that and just this alone is $100 .
So the fact that I got all this for $99 with a total steal .
Um So definitely , um look on Black Friday coming up for any holiday sales .
I got it on Macy's , I'll link it down below for you guys .
So you guys can check it out .
Um But they do sell it at bed bath and they do sell it at Target .
Um Walmart , I think even sells it .
So , but I did get it on Macy's for their Black Friday .
So , um and this little guy right here , I think it's the be to plus I have to double check , I'll put it right here on the screen for you guys , but I do believe it is the Ber Tool Plus .
Um it is one of the newer models .
Um And yeah , it is amazing and I love it .
So I don't , I haven't gotten the Starbucks for actual coffee in .
So so , so , so , so long .
So I used to go to Starbucks all the time .
Um , my friends , my co-workers always see me bringing Starbucks into work and I'd be late for it and everything and I was just spending so much money .
So , um , I wanted to invest in something that was gonna , you know , help me spend less money and something that I can make at home .
Starbucks messes up my drinks more than half the time and it's just super annoying .
So I know I can make my own coffee at home and I save a big buck .
So like I said , um this is the virtual , it comes with the little , you know , water container and then your froth .
Um This froth is really cool because it comes um you can do , you can do , you can uh you can froth milk or any creamer that you desire .
Um some creamers that will not fro due to the consistency of it .
I know almond milk creamers .
It will not frock but the almond milk that I found it does actually froth .
You just gotta find the perfect one .
And frocks milk very , very well .
So frothing is just like a fluffy foamy consistency .
Um It does it for both in two ways .
It does it both both ice and um I mean cold and hot .
So I'll show you guys how I do that also .
Um And yeah , so I'm gonna show you guys two ways that I do my coffee .
Hello ?
Focus .
Hello ?
Ok .
I'm gonna show you guys two ways that I do my coffee .
They're kind of like I would say lattes .
Um , so definitely an ice latte and a regular hot latte .
Um , there's two different , well , yeah , there's two different , two different .
I do the hot and the , um , ice , so I will show you this .
So , you know where I'm , um , and if you wanna know how I do my coffee , my Starbucks at home , definitely keep on watching .
Ok .
So , um and I'll talk a little bit more towards the end just because I don't want to rumble off .
If you want to get to the product , just go ahead and watch and then I'll talk more about this uh machine towards the end of the video .
So definitely stay tuned towards the end .
I will be answering some , you know , frequently asked questions towards the end .
So I will start out with a hot coffee , a hot latte .
Um So I have different pots here .
I usually my go to literally the one that I , I um I have every morning is my vanilla custard pie .
So this is a vanilla custard pie and it looks like this .
And if you see here it has a bar code .
So what the bar code does is that it , once you put the pot into your coffee , it would um the virtual plus actually scans the bar code to let it know what size it .
Um the pot is , there is different pods and different sizes and I will do this in comparison .
So as you can tell this is actually an espresso pod and this is a regular coffee , I think this is an eight ounce .
So anyways , um no wait , it's on , this is a 7.77 fluid ounces and this one is a 2.70 fluid ounce .
So um again , this one also has the bar code .
So it lets the machine know once you stick the pi in there , it will scan it and it lets them know how much amount , what amount to distribute .
Um So that's actually pretty cool and yeah , so I'll do the hot thing .
You guys are gonna be so amazed .
So when the coffee comes out , it is my favorite part because it just is so rich and the colors just blend so nicely and oh my God , your Keurig could never your Keurig .
I threw that out because I fell in love .
Ok .
So let me just show you guys , ok ?
You can't see me .
So what I'm gonna do is all you do is just what the cool thing about this is this , it only has one button and that button does it all for you .
So that's a cool thing .
It doesn't have like other machines that have thousands of buttons just to make an espresso um or a latte .
This one actually just has one and it does it so amazing .
So of course , you're going to want your coffee there .
So when you turn it on , all you do is you just lift this little layer .
And as you can see the coffee that I um used previously actually disposes the pot in the back here .
And those pods are actually all in here .
So you can uh these are recyclable , so they'll send you a bag so you can put these and recycle them .
So that's pretty cool .
I just put it back here .
OK ?
So all you do , like I said , just put your little pot in here and you saw that right ?
So then all you do is just press the button and you'll see it and right now it's actually scanning and then you'll see it .
Um take out the or you'll see it .
What's the word I'm looking for ?
Pour the coffee into your mug .
So this is the creamer that I use and this is the vanilla silk almond .
So , you know , and I'll let that be too sweet .
How lazy and how hot it's steaming .
You could never Yeah , it just , and it smells so freaking good .
It smells like a coffee shop .
I love this thing .
You guys , I love it .
I stop going to Starbucks .
I only go to Starbucks for refreshers because if this can make a refresher , I do it but it can't so , so cool .
Like just the color of it .
I'll have to zoom in for you guys .
Let me see if I can zoom in .
Hello .
Anyway , it smells so good .
And by the way , I'm filming this at what time is it ?
8 p.m. So I will be up all night because of this coffee .
Ok , so there it is the seven ounces .
Um So I will get up close for you guys so you guys can see the freaking color .
This is not a Keurig your car and like I said , your cur could never , you could see the color of it .
I hope it's focusing .
You could see the color of it .
Just how beautiful that is .
So then um when I am doing my froth , I actually use a sweet creamer um because I don't , I don't put any sugar .
This has enough sugar in it .
So when I drink it , it is actually very , you know , just perfect .
So I love this creamer .
Um I love uh refer or recommended it and I love it .
It is amazing .
So , and it's actually an almond creamer and like I said , it won't froth very many almond um milk , but this one actually does .
So and this is the vanilla flavor just to go in conjunction with the vanilla .
So , and then I will see if I can show you guys it has two lines .
So when you're frothing , you're doing putting your froth in , you'll see two lines .
It says Max on top and max on the bottom .
So the max on the bottom is the one where you want it because that one will froth and make it warm .
The max on top , it only makes it warm for you .
So if you want froth , leave it on the max on the bottom , put it on the mat , little line all the way at the bottom .
So I will be doing that , lock it up and super easy .
All you do is just one click .
You'll see the little thing turned red .
That means that obviously I'm doing a hot frog for red .
And later on when I do my ice latte , it'll be blue for cold .
So I'm just doing red for this hot coffee .
Now , let me tell you guys , it's actually very hot .
My Keurig could never , I would have to put it in the microwave to make it a little warmer .
So this one actually brews the coffee very , very hot .
I got my in-laws into this into the press machine .
I got my parents into it .
So I definitely love this thing .
And usually while the coffee is brewing I'll to be um I can't talk today , I'll be frothing my uh my creamer .
So and it doesn't have to necessarily be creamer .
It can just be milk .
Um It's usually , you know , that's obviously what it's supposed to be for is milk , but we are a little boujee and we like sweet stuff .
So I'm just going to do um my creamer and taste perfect .
Um I don't even know like the taste , I think it's like similar to a white chocolate mocha .
Maybe , maybe not .
I don't know .
Ok , so it takes about maybe a minute or less .
30 seconds of that and then you'll see the coffee madness so good y'all .
It's so good .
OK .
And I mixed it so I'll make it , I'll mix it so you can mix .
Let's get the fro in there .
Have a good sweet you guys it's like crazy .
It's not and there you have it .
This is how I make my uh what is it ?
Vanilla latte at Home Starbucks edition , I mean home edition .
Anyway .
So you know what I mean ?
So this is how I make my coffee .
Let me try it .
I already know holidays .
I I look forward to this every morning y'all .
It is like I can't even explain it .
It is just so perfect .
Ah I love it .
Mhm .
So good .
Ok , so that's how I make my beautiful um vanilla latte .
Um and it is so good , so tasteful and it is just the perfect coffee .
So the next one I will be making with number two is an ice .
So let me just get some ice real quick .
So onto my ice .
Um this one's a caramel because I do caramel .
Caramel .
Caramel , caramel .
How do you guys say it ?
Car ?
I just say caramel .
Ok , so um I'm gonna do an iced caramel .
A nice caramel caramel .
I don't know .
All fucked up .
Um nice caramel latte .
And uh what I need for my iced caramel latte is uh of course uh caramel syrup .
Uh You need a classic caramel syrup or ?
Sorry , like I , I cannot function um caramel drizzle and syrup .
I found I got these at Target , by the way and this one was also , so Target Walmart , I've seen at Walmart .
You obviously need a glass , some ice and milk because I use milk with this one and your machine .
Of course .
And for this one , I use the , some people I guess would call it a ice caramel latte or some people just say double shot on ice .
Um And it is a double shot of a double shot on ice , but I do add milk to it .
So that makes it a latte .
That's why I , so I'm using the double espresso .
I thought it was a but it's because it's , I think it's French .
So this one is obviously an espresso .
So it will um it will dispense less fluid or less fluid ounces .
Um But again , you guys will see the goodness .
So what I do is I actually apply a little bit of syrup at the bottom and looks like that .
Like I said , you just lift it and then it will dispense your pod , put this one in there and all you do is just click a button and it'll do all the work for you .
Of course , it's gonna come out kind of warm and hot .
It's gonna come out hot , but then you will make it cold .
Um , so this one actually has the instructions here .
It says just hold down for hot froth and two seconds down for cold frog .
So , so what we're doing , I've been using 2% and again , at the bottom line and I'm going to press this down 12 and it turns blue .
So that means it is going to be cold and like the other one that was hot for red .
This one's cold .
I in my check you guys that color and that smell is just like your kick .
Could never , it just is so rich and just the , my husband really likes this one too and sometimes I'll drink this one hot .
It just depends my , a little closer .
I hope it does .
I hope it's not glory .
Hello ?
Do you guys see that ?
Ok .
So , um , this is still frothing .
So while that's doing that , I'll add my caramel syrup .
So I'll just do , I don't have a pump , so I'll just kind of do like three pumps myself .
So that once this is done .
Eyebrow the milk .
No , wait , what do I do ?
Oh , no , I have the um ice mack and honestly the ice melts pretty fast because it's hot .
So I add quite a bit of ice and then I add a maya milk broth onto and to top it off .
I add , no , not that one for one .
I add more caramel drizzle .
Do a little design use you and there you have it , your iced caramel latte or a , would it be a , I don't know how , where I thought , but now let's , I kind of mix it a little bit and now let's try it .
Oh , it is so good .
I can't .
Yeah , I'm gonna be up till like two in the morning with all this coffee , but I can't .
This one is so good .
This one literally tastes like Starbucks .
Well , that one does too , but this one literally tastes like I ordered this at Starbucks .
It's amazing .
Oh I love it .
All right .
So it was that easy .
I love this machine .
It's everything .
So I just wanted to make a quick video for you guys show you this how I use my espresso , how easy it is to make these amazing coffees and that you need to go get yourself an espresso .
It is worth every penny in my opinion .
Um I would repurchase it over and over again and yeah , again , it's your car could never .
So that is it .
And I'm going to now kind of just talk a little bit more about it .
Um Just to kind of give you guys the pros and cons to it .
Um So if you wanna hear that , keep watching because if not , then go ahead and just go purchase it .
Ok .
So like I said , the song was $99 when I got it for Black Friday .
So let me look how much it is .
Ok .
So this machine that I have right here is actually $249.95 .
And that is at , um , may see , but keep in mind they do sell similar models for a lesser price that are usually like 1 99 2031 79 1 89 .
So and like I said , definitely look out for that Black Friday deal .
It is so worth it .
$99 for the froth and for the um the machine was such a steal .
Honestly .
This one ?
Oh , ok .
So um what other questions have I been asked ?
Oh , the only , the only thing I hate about an espresso and just the machines and everything is that they do not sell their pods or sorry .
Actually , they do sell their pots .
But for the later , the older version for these newer version that they just came out with , which is the are the virtual line .
We do not sell the pods in stores yet .
Um I know they do plan on doing so and like I said , their older virgin pods are in store , but the pods for this machine and their newer versions are not sold in store .
So you either have to order them on espresso dot com on their website , which is actually very cool because you can rock up points .
You do free shipping and they do free two day shipping .
So , um , it's super quick .
You get your pots literally sometimes even the next day .
And that is pretty cool and they do sell it and they're an espresso boutiques .
So they do have an espresso boutiques in the United States .
Um , I know they have a here in California and I think they have some in Colorado .
I know they don't have any here on the island of Hawaii .
So , um I can't buy any here , but I just order them .
It's honestly not that bad .
Um And every time you order on our website , they actually do give you samples along with it .
So that's pretty cool .
And you keep racking up your points , you get free um , free pods , you get free machines , you get free stuff .
So it's actually pretty cool .
Um So that's my only downside is that I can't go to the , my local grocery store like I could with the curry and buy the pods .
I actually have to order them and sometimes , you know , I forget .
So I , I'm out of coffee , but nonetheless , it's very easy and um that's my only downfall to that , to this machine .
But I said if you have an espresso boutique near you , um it's definitely not that bad if you can just go to the boutique and they are very , very , very nice .
So another thing with this machine is that when you do purchase it , um make sure you register on an espresso app or online , you can just register your machine and it , no matter what store you buy from , you automatically get a two year warranty .
You do not pay for it .
It is guaranteed once you buy the machine .
So that is actually very cool .
Um I did not know that .
So if case your machine breaks and you have your machine registered to save your receipt and if it breaks something happens to it , you can go on an espresso , tell them what's going on , tell me stone warranty and they will send you a whole machine or whatever needs to be replaced .
So it is so , so , so cool and um just so awesome .
Cut a break so bad .
Ok .
Um They have so many pots .
So each pod , like I said it is different .
They have different flavors .
They have a um a Hawaii flavor .
They have um like Mexico , Colombia , you name it .
They have a whole bunch of flavors .
Um These are my two go tos .
I will put them up here for you guys , the vanilla custard pie and the double espresso .
Um they usually run about a dollar dollar 10 cents each pod .
So , oh , once you buy the whole sleeve , the sleeve comes with 10 , you're able to order two sleeves , three sleeves or whatever .
Um usually ends up being maybe $12 for about 10 of them .
So , if you add the map as to how much , you know , you're spending on these pods and how much you're spending at Starbucks , you're definitely saving a big buck .
So , um , another thing I think that's it .
What are the questions that I always get ?
I don't know if it's worth the money .
I definitely , definitely , definitely believe it is worth the money .
I love this thing .
It is so easy to use .
I know there's other machines that are super high tech .
You know , they have a lot of buttons here and there , but this one is just so easy .
So cool .
Um , you just fill up your water here .
This one you can actually take out , you fill up your water .
Um It says the max , um , Jesus crushed up .
It says a max and a at a minimum and yeah , so you just fill up your water and you are able to wash this .
They have little pods that you're able to wash .
Um , yeah , it's super easy .
Honestly , I think that like I said , it is worth every book .
It is a good Christmas gift with Christmas coming up .
I definitely recommend you buying it .
And yeah , I mean , like I said , you're able to make so many recipes .
They actually have recipes online espresso uh website .
So you're able to look up a few recipes if you will and see what you like .
Um , but these are just my go to never found me and they are just so so good .
Let me take another sip .
Y'all so good .
OK .
Well , I'd like to conclude my video .

It's being a full time mom now I don't get as much sleep as I used to .
