    Essenza Mini. You can search for the model number on the baseplate. The manual is online at [nespresso.com](http://nespresso.com) and you’re missing a piece of the drip tray. It may or may not have been stored properly, may or may not be recommended for use because of possible mold contamination that really cannot be thoroughly cleaned out. But looks pretty clean.

    That is definitely an Essenza Mini, without the (useless) drip tray. I own one in a different color and ditched the drip tray immediately because none of my cups fit under it. Takes OL pods, my personal favorite is Stockholm

    Great little machine. Looks clean too. Run a clean cycle before using

    Wait just curious you found it at work and nobody was using it???

    I have this machine too! I hadn’t touched it in a couple years, so I ran a descaling cycle and it works great!

    In an office situation, the drip tray is going to be nice to have so you don’t leave a preventably stupid mess on your desk or in the break room without resorting to towels. Plus, the little machine looks complete with the cup holder extension. If your cups don’t fit under it, you’re using the wrong cups. Get appropriate drinkware for espresso, which is not only perfectly suited to the task, demitasse will elevate your Cool Quotient, especially in the eyes of all the Keurig sheep that surround you.

    It’s a great simple little machine. It makes 1 – 3+ ounce espressos. Get your self the Aerochino machine to froth milk and you are off to the races!

    You got your answers I see, but I wanted to add this is a great little machine! I got one for my daughter 4 years ago and it’s still going!

  9. You can use the Google app to look up anything. You don’t have to describe it you just take a photo

    Your coffee game is about to get an upgrade!!

  11. I have one of these and I love it! It’s so compact I’ve actually packed it in my suitcase for travel 🙂 it takes OL pods.

    I have that! Works great even after my son poured regular coffee grounds into it.

    This is my daily driver. I’m on my second one over the last 15 years.

    I also have a 4+ year old Mini and have never used the drip tray. I just keep a small glass under the spout to catch the drips. Mine does leak a lot afterward. I imagine it as crying for me not to leave, come back for more coffee 😂
