*I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Mom Central for NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto, and received a promotional item to thank me for my participation. #MC
We are big coffee drinkers in this household, but we prefer a fresh cup of coffee rather than a cup from a pot that has been sitting out for a few hours. Not to mention having to make a whole pot of coffee and wait for it to brew. Anyone that knows me, especially, knows that I am a little bit “unpleasant” (that is putting it mildly!) in the morning, when I haven’t fueled up on coffee yet. What is the solution? The NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Genio, of course!
This small machine packs a powerful punch, and allows me (and all of us – though they aren’t quite as impatient as I am), to quickly brew my favorite coffee beverage in the morning, in under one minute. Not only do I get a “regular” cup of coffee but I can choose from 19 hot or cold beverages for the the NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Genio, to suit any need or craving I might have at any given time. Not to mention, when we have guests over, it will be fun to let them choose from a large variety of flavors, instead of just offering “coffee”.
We had fun sampling the flavors we received*, and of course, using our NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Genio machine. It was very easy to set up, straight out of the box. The machine has a 21 oz. reservoir which makes 3 cups of coffee.
The average price for a box of 8 coffee drinks is $9.49 – much cheaper than buying your specialty coffee drinks at a pricey coffeehouse! I am guilty of buying coffee beverages often, but honestly, the prices are ridiculous. I will most likely still grab one when I am out and about, but I will no longer feel the need to leave the house just to get one – I can make one right here at home. This will save us A LOT of money, without giving up quality. I think it is interesting that the coffee in the NESCAFÉ capsules is exclusively created using beans from NESCAFÉ farms!
The machine is really easy to use. There is a button on the side to turn the power on, and a water reservoir in the back (which is very easy to take on and off). The hot and cold buttons on top are to be used to choose your temperature, and you can also choose your cup size. The spin-wheel on top makes this very easy.
This would be an excellent holiday gift for yourself, or maybe for your grown child who might live in a dorm or small apartment. Heck, even if you have a large kitchen with plenty of counter space, you will love this machine!
You can purchase the NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Genio at select Target stores in California, and they also carry the and the beverage capsules. You can also find them on Target.com. You might want to like NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto on Facebook, follow #LiveWithGusto and @DolceGustoUS on Twitter to keep up on the latest promotions, discounts, etc.
