Nescafe Dolce Gusto Neo
When Cliff Richard lost his way, he turned to God. But nowadays everyone’s turning to pod – and the Neo is Nestle’s attempt to kick off a new generation of pod-based coffee machines. Its SmartBrew tech uses different brewing methods for espressos, americanos or drip-style coffee, and it automatically recognises each kind of pod, adjusting accordingly. Naturally there’s an app, enabling you to fine-tune your order remotely. But perhaps best of all, the pods are responsibly sourced and compostable, and use much less packaging than most, while the machine has been designed to be easy to repair and recycle. £tba / nestle.com
