Nespresso Vertuo Up Coffee & Espresso Maker by De'Longhi, Grey — Compact 3-sec Heat, Coffee Creations Concentrate

The Nespresso Vertuo Up by De'Longhi is a compact, fast-start coffee and espresso machine with a Coffee Creations mode for concentrated iced and milk-based drinks.

Designed for small counters and busy mornings, the Vertuo Up brews six capsule sizes — from single espresso to 18 oz coffee — while keeping a slim profile and an adjustable 47 oz water tank. It heats in three seconds, offers app-enabled cup size and temperature control, and includes a dedicated Coffee Creations button to produce a richer concentrate ideal for iced coffees or milk-forward beverages. The rotating tank and easy-open lever make everyday use and maintenance straightforward.

How does the Vertuo Up fit into a tight kitchen or small apartment?

The Vertuo Up is built for compact spaces without sacrificing capacity. Its vertical, narrow chassis takes minimal counter space while the multi-position 47 oz water tank rotates and repositions so you can place the machine where it fits best.

• Slim footprint suitable for small counters or narrow shelves
• 47 oz tank that rotates to left, right or back for flexible placement
• Lightweight design makes it easy to move or store

What makes Coffee Creations mode useful for iced and milk drinks?

Coffee Creations mode produces a more concentrated extraction, which keeps flavor balanced when poured over ice or mixed with milk. This maintains a bolder taste and aroma even after dilution, so iced coffees stay vibrant and lattes retain complexity.

• Concentrated brew setting ideal for iced coffee and milk-based recipes
• Preserves flavor and aroma after ice melting or milk addition
• One-touch button for consistent, repeatable results

How quickly and easily can I make my morning coffee?

The machine reaches brew-ready temperature in around three seconds, so you can start a drink almost immediately. An easy-open lever and intuitive top controls reduce steps from capsule insertion to pour, and app control lets you fine-tune cup size and temperature remotely.

• 3-second fast start for minimal wait time
• Easy-open lever simplifies capsule loading and removal
• Nespresso Smart App adjusts cup size and temperature settings

What drink sizes and customization options are available?

The Vertuo Up supports six capsule sizes — single and double espresso plus four coffee sizes up to 18 oz — giving you flexibility for quick espressos or larger servings. You can tailor cup volume and temperature via the app or use the machine’s settings for consistent results.

• Six brew sizes: two espressos and four coffee volumes (including 18 oz)
• Adjustable cup size and temperature through the Nespresso app
• Consistent crema and extraction across capsule types
