 Starbucks by Nespresso Decaf Espresso Roast 3 Pack
Starbucks by Nespresso Decaf Espresso Roast 3 Pack
The same high-quality Starbucks coffee that you know and love is now made by Nespresso for you to enjoy at home. Plus, these capsules are made from aluminum for 100% recyclability and guaranteed coffee freshness. Every espresso beverage we handcraft for you begins right here. Our master roasters coax the beans along, the heat taking them deep and dark for a recipe for caramelly sweetness. A blend of beans from Latin America and Asia/Pacific, roasted the way only we know how. Works with Nespresso Original Line machines, including: Essenza Mini, Pixie, CitiZ, Expert, Lattissima, KitchenAid, Creatista.
 
Bold, clean flavor

Great decaf espresso cups.
You can easily make a Lungo with these and it's still strong and bold tasting and not watered down.

Keep your bedroom comfortable with this Honeywell tower fan. Two independent controls provide separate, flexible oscillation and airflow for the top and bottom units, and the six speeds offer versatile cooling. With its Turbo Force high-velocity circulator, this 32-inch-tall Honeywell tower fan is ideal for use in medium to large rooms.
 
Love it! One major drawback: doesn't last long

My experience: this is the 3rd fan we've bought.
Because it runs 24/7 (I assume this is the problem) the oscillation feature stops working at around 6 months.
The fan still works, and it really moves air better than any fan we've ever had, but without the oscillation, the "general area of blow" is one direction.
The first one was replaced by Honeywell very easily at 6 months, but I was told they would not replace it again.
So about 9 months later (we used it not oscillating through the winter months), we had to buy another.
Frustrating policy, because both stopped working fully at under 1 year (the warranty coverage).
But overall it's a great fan and really will move/cool air in a fairly large room.
The old one was regulated to the garage lol.

For such a powerful chopper, this machine is light in a good way!
It's stable, in spite of the lightness.
Very good controls.
Compacity is large enough for a family.
The blades are super sharp !
I do wish they made a cleaning tool for the blades so you wouldn't have to handle them as much, but be extra careful.

I've owned Keurigs on and off since they came out.
I like this one because of the larger cup size options.
I do suggest using a refillable cup or the espresso roast cups for the larger sizes so you can keep it strong.
I can't really tell a difference using the "button" that makes it stronger, I've never noticed that it actually changed the strength of the brew.

I'd give this 5 stars, except for the fact that the filters are $80 each as of this time, and there are no generic options.
It also tells me when my cooking is unacceptable lol - it's set up in our family room, but when I cook, it definitely knows, the % goes down.
I'm aiming for a 0% one day lol.

I love this pan!
It's so versatile, deep enough to make a family size casserole but not so heavy (like cast iron) that you can't pick it up.
Oven safe, glass cooktop safe, so far I haven't even noticed a scratch even though I use it almost daily.
I would suggest Ninja brand put a coating on the lid handle because it gets very hot!
That's not even worth removing a star because this pan is awesome!
I have 4 pieces now and I'm considering the wok next.

There's a "clean" button on top.
I haven't had it long enough to say if it's a stand alone button or if you have to use a descaling solution.

Are there any disposable filters available for the ground coffee option to replace the permanent filter? Thanks!

The booklet says not to use paper filters, but it's tempting because fine ground coffee seems to leave sludge with just the permanent filter.
