First time poster, been waiting for a worthwhile scoop to pop the cherry ;)

Apparently an unprecedented price for this product half price @ $49.00 in all Big W- starting on the 6th July (not sure when it finishes)..

My friend who works at Big W shared this upcoming promotion with me. I have one at home and I think its a very underrated machine.

This machine doesn't use coffee pods or capsules and can take any type of instant coffee. I use it to froth up hot Milo (yes i drink Milo with water)

Edit 8/7: $54 delivered off eBay here and use COZZIE code. Save $5 off the Big W website price for delivery.

    That sounds pretty neat, actually.

    And yeah, I make hot Milo with water all the time. I just top it up with some milk at the end.

    I've actually got two free Nescafe mugs, they look like they'd go well with this machine.

      Singaporeans and Malaysians been making milo with hot water/ice water forever. They call them Milo Dinosaurs. I always get one when I eat satay sticks at Mamak :-)

    so you add cold water & powdered coffee/milo/etc
    and it comes out hot, steamy & frothy?

    • Associatedtight fisted @ BIG W on 03/07/2017 - 18:11

      yes its that easy, hence i say its underrated for those that drink instant coffee and whatnot

      • [Deactivated] on 03/07/2017 - 18:13

          @Regie69:
          Ok that wasnt the type I was thinking of. It was some instant coffee machine where u can put a 'bag' of coffee and cold water, and it comes out the bottom like instant hot water.

      • PeterA07 on 04/07/2017 - 08:24

        If you want to froth up hot chocolate or instant coffee, just get a $2 hand-held milk frother on eBay. You don't get "true" microfoam but when you're drinking instant coffee that's hardly something to quibble over.

    • Adz81 on 04/07/2017 - 08:40

      No, it doesn't come out "hot, steamy & frothy", it comes out barely piss warm and frothy.

  • walkerxp on 03/07/2017 - 17:58

    I remember when they gave you a large tin of Nescafe coffee with it when purchased.

    No doubt they will skim and not include this in the deal now?

    • Associatedtight fisted @ BIG W on 03/07/2017 - 18:08

      i actually bought my machine when they had that $99 sale with free coffee! i think the 700g tin of Nescafe coffee is $25 normally, so you're better off just buying the coffee and machine separately during this sale ($74 vs $99)

      Not giving you the Nescafé coffee is doing you a favour

          I like any of them but if I had to choose I would go for macona as my favourite.

    .
    Nescafe must be getting rid of them as there is a newer model that is more automated and probably more expensive called the Nescafe Barista Coffee Machine
    no idea of price but there are some videos on You Tube like this one showing what it can do

    Remember the $400 juicer that dispenses pre-juiced juice?
    This is the coffee equivalent.

  • Jackson on 04/07/2017 - 19:27

    Can someone let me know how this works? There is actually a small market for a machine that simply dispenses boiled water and nothing else, Tefal used to make one for about 60 bucks and the advantages were it took a lot less time to boil than a kettle, there was no minimum amount of water to be boiled, and also therefore less electricity used (not that you would make your money back compared to a 7 dollar kettle but it's worth noting).

    So if you take the shitty coffee out of the equation, this might not be so bad for people who only want to boil a cup of water for tea etc
