The coffee machine is designed to create the ultimate ‘coffee shop at home’ experience by combining high quality, cutting-edge technology and sustainability, Nestlé noted.

The coffee pods in the new range are paper-based, home compostable and use 70% less packaging (by weight) than current capsules.

David Rennie, head of Nestlé Coffee Brands, said, “Nestlé is a relentless innovator in the coffee category. We are continuously looking to bring consumers new experiences, variety and quality in their coffee, in a sustainable way. With Nescafé Dolce Gusto Neo, we have created the perfect combination of a great coffee experience, new coffee system and packaging, all in one.”

Nescafé Dolce Gusto Neo features Nestlé’s proprietary SmartBrew technology that combines three brewing methods, allowing consumers to enjoy, high-quality espressos, coffeeshop-like americanos, and drip-style coffees, in one single machine.

The coffee machine automatically recognises the pod, adapting the brewing method to each selected coffee. The coffee machine can be connected to a smartphone, enabling shoppers to personalise their coffee preparation remotely.

It is designed to be more convenient to dismantle and repair, with an A++ energy rating, and a switch-off eco-mode.

Neo will be introduced in Brazil this year with plans to expand to more countries over time and the coffee capsules are entirely produced in Nescafé Dolce Gusto’s factory in Montes Claros, Brazil.
