Nespresso / Nespresso

In one of the deeper discounts we’ve seen among our Prime Day deals, the

drops from a retail price of $230 to just $100 for Prime Day at Amazon and of course it ships free. That’s a 57% discount, which is rare for this machine. We saw it for half off in June, and there have been 30% and 40% discounts scattered throughout the year, but this is the lowest price we’ve seen all year. To snag this unusual $130 in savings, we suggest acting quickly. At the $100 price point, this Nespresso machine would make an ideal holiday gift (and there’s nothing wrong with buying one for yourself as well).

The Nespresso Vertuo Machine was designed to be used with Nespresso capsules, which either make coffee or espresso. It’s simple: Just insert the capsule and close the lever. The best part? You get 30 of those capsules included free with your purchase, so you can try three of Nespresso’s most popular blends: Stormio, Odacio, and Melozio. That’s in addition to the 12-capsule starter pack that comes with the machine. And Nespresso provides several options for recycling the pods as well, so you don’t have to feel guilty about your impact on the environment.

The Nespresso Vertuo Machine makes three coffee cup sizes and two espresso cup sizes. What’s more, the Vertuo reads the barcode on the capsule and adjusts its brewing settings accordingly, so you won’t need to tinker with the settings. And with the large 54-ounce water reservoir and 17-capsule container capacity, you don’t have to worry about tending to the machine too often. But it’s mostly the quality of the coffee that garnered such rave reviews on Amazon, with customers citing great taste, a layer of crema foam, and quick results. More than 3,500 customer reviewers rated this machine an average of 4.6/5 stars.

while you still can. While it would normally set you back $230, you can get it for just $100 on Prime Day. That’s $130 in savings you can put towards extra coffee or anything else you might need this winter.

Chocolate-covered espresso beans: The ultimate combination of sweet and bitter
A coffee lover's perfect snack
chocolate espresso

Chocolate and coffee go together like peanut butter and jelly or wine and cheese. It just makes sense. Despite these commonly known food pairings, many chocolate and coffee lovers have forgotten the ultimate snack: chocolate-covered espresso beans. Many of us get stuck in our food "hyper fixations," as I call them, where we tend to gravitate toward the same foods or snacks until they're replaced with a new option.

As it turns out, this snack is just as delicious as I remembered them. No matter how long it's been since you've snacked on them, consider this your reminder to fall in love with chocolate covered espresso beans all over again.

Bottomless portafilter vs. regular: Which one makes better espresso?
What makes each portafilter different?
espresso filter

One thing I love about brewing espresso is that it can be adjusted and adapted for any skill level. Whether you're a coffee nerd or a barista who wants to perfect every part of the brewing process, you can brew espresso. Regardless of your skill level, you need to learn about one of the most critical components of an espresso maker: the portafilter. You can't brew espresso without it -- unless you're using a capsule-style system like a Nespresso Veruto.

There are two types of portafilters that you can use with your espresso maker, yet neither is better than the other. Both the bottomless portafilter and a regular, spouted portafilter do the trick to brew delicious espresso. With this in mind, the winner of the bottomless portafilter vs. regular debate comes down to your preferences and how deeply invested you are in the art of brewing espresso. Here's what to know about each type of espresso filter.

This is how to make beef tips worthy of the Kentucky Derby
Chef Robert Lopez spills the tea on how to make slow-cooked beef tips
Horses racing in the Kentucky Derby

When it comes to the Kentucky Derby, the spectacle isn’t just on the racetrack. The annual event is synonymous with Southern tradition, elegance, and indulgence, which makes it the perfect backdrop for a curated, high-end dining experience. Chef Robert Lopez, Senior Executive Chef at Levy Restaurants and Head Chef at Churchill Downs, has crafted a Derby-inspired menu that blends tradition with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients to capture the essence of this legendary horse racing event.

Lopez is known for his attention to detail and deep respect for classic Southern flavors, and he has carefully and thoughtfully selected dishes like the Bluegrass Fields Salad and drinks like the mint julep that evoke both comfort and refinement. You’re in for a treat, as we had the pleasure of speaking with the chef and picking his brain on how he selected these recipes for this year's menu. One of the most popular dishes that he has on there are the slow-cooked beef tips, and we were eager to learn not only how to make beef tips, but also how to do them the Kentucky Derby way.
