Description
Nespresso Gemini CS-101 Pro Espresso Machine AND Nespresso CS-20 Milk Frother I have 2 complete sets of these incredible machines and I love the coffee they produce. I use one set at home and one set at my small business office. They are wonderful. This set is the home set that has gotten much less use. Everything works perfectly and I have maintained this set very well. I first saw these machines in Spain while I was there for a technology conference. Upon returning to the US, I searched long and hard to find one - eventually buying 2 sets and picking up a 3rd CS-20 milk frother. The CS-101 Pro is a true power house and was designed to be used in small business environment and it is built like a tank. it can be used at home of course and has relatively small footprint yet 3liter water tank. The matching CS-20 pairs nicely with the CS 101 Pro to offer your clients, employees and/or family all they need to enjoy a cappuccino at the touch of a button. With a 1,000 mL (9 -15 cup) capacity and easy-to-use, one-touch operation, this frother is able to prepare the perfect portion of milk froth time after time, making it the ideal choice for providing delicious beverages quickly and easily. Not only is this pair of machines built way better than consumer Nespresso machines, they are designed for heavy use and prepare better coffee, has option for water filter installation, cup length programing and water brewing temperature adjustments. it also has cup plate warmers located at the top of both machine. Pro capsules are cheaper than consumer capsules and can be purchased either from Nespresso Business Solution website or Ebay (there are other sources as well). In addition if you register this machine with Nespresso Business Solution you will be receiving their promotional offers for coffee and accessories that are not available to the public. This machine does NOT use consumer original pods or dome pods. Professional pods are easier to store and handle (no aluminum to dent) and more important, they are vacuum sealed for freshness. I will include 20 Caffe Caramello professional pods to get you started. Original MSRP of this pair of machines was about $3500. They are commercial-grade, great looking machines having a lot of features and a small footprint. Key features of the CS-101 Pro - Semi Automatic insertion and ejection capsule system - The Pro capsules are vacuum sealed and don't have any air inside unlike consumer capsules which helps to maintain freshness longer - 3 programable cup sizes buttons for: Ristretto, Espresso and Lungo - Digital multi-Language display - LED under the coffee spout and in water tank - Programable Auto-off - High Speed, programable separate spout for hot water - Capacity for 30 used capsules - Cup warming plate (can be turned on/off in menu) - 3 liter removable water reservoir with collapsible handle - Programable water hardness and optional water filter installation - Brewing pressure 16-19 Bar - Dimensions: 8.2"x17.4"x12.9" - Weight: 21.4 lbs I ncluded in auction: - Nespresso Professional Gemini CS 101 Pro Machine with original accessories necessary to prepare coffee and the Professional Cappuccinatore CS-20 Milk Frother - Power cords - Water tanks - Both user manuals - Instruction cards for both machines - 20 Caffe Caramello professional pods - 2 Nespresso descaling kits - 25 disposable straws and 25 disposable nozzles for the Cappuccinatore CS-20 milk frother - 2 insulated thermal milk containers for Cappuccinatore CS-20 milk frother (only 1 shown in pics but 2 are included) - Autocappuccino Device for CS20 Milk Frother w/ 2 Plastic Tubes (this item is new in original box from Nespresso).
