Nespresso CitiZ Series: Urban-Inspired Capsule Coffee Machines

If you’ve ever wanted a stylish, compact espresso machine that fits seamlessly into a modern kitchen or small apartment, you’re not alone. Finding the right balance between design, function, and ease of use can be tricky—especially when space is limited.

The Nespresso CitiZ series answers those needs with a slim profile, larger water tank, and optional integrated milk frother. The standard model starts at ¥4290, while the version with the Aeroccino milk frother costs ¥5190.

Design Inspired by City Life

The Nespresso CitiZ series draws inspiration from the vibrant energy of urban environments. Designers took cues from colorful cityscapes—like red fire trucks, sleek black and white cars, chrome-plated architecture, and the sound of high heels on pavement—to create a machine that reflects metropolitan style. The result is a compact yet bold espresso maker that blends into contemporary spaces with visual impact.

Slim, Space-Saving Form

The CitiZ series features an ultra-thin design, making it more compact than previous Nespresso machines. This streamlined shape is ideal for kitchens where counter space is at a premium. Despite its smaller footprint, it doesn’t compromise on performance or capacity.

Upgraded Water Tank and Frothing Options

A redesigned water reservoir offers increased capacity and improved accessibility for cleaning—addressing a common pain point in older models. For those who enjoy milk-based drinks, the CitiZ can be paired with the Aeroccino milk frother. This model comes with an integrated tray system that uses a single power outlet and presents a unified look.

The Aeroccino takes functionality further by offering both hot and cold milk frothing capabilities. That means you can easily prepare iced cappuccinos or refreshing cold milk drinks in warmer months, adding versatility to your espresso routine.

Two Model Options

Nespresso offers the CitiZ in two configurations:

• CitiZ (standard): ¥4290
• CitiZ & Aeroccino combo: ¥5190 (includes the integrated milk frother)

Both models maintain the signature Nespresso capsule system, ensuring consistency in espresso extraction with minimal setup.
