Rare Kordy Posted Tuesday at 02:02 AM #1 Share Posted Tuesday at 02:02 AM I read somewhere that on Celebrity Ascent, there is a free espresso machine, at The Spa Cafe & Juice Bar on Deck 14 by the indoor pool / Solarium. If so, does this machine make a cappuccino or latte and is it really complimentary? Seems like a great option for those without a drinks package?

Jeremiah1212 Posted Tuesday at 11:42 AM #2 Share Posted Tuesday at 11:42 AM Ascent and Beyond both have one. It’s not real espresso. It’s basically a commercial Keurig machine. The one on Beyond was broken more than it worked. Watching people attempt to use it can be pretty entertaining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted Tuesday at 01:03 PM #3 Share Posted Tuesday at 01:03 PM On Beyond in May I used that machine several times and never saw it not working. Just lucky, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure? it does seem like a complimentary espresso machine - as there are fresh coffee beans at the top - see photo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you - see the photo I attached above - it does seem like there is a milk frother on the right and since there is milk available to the right of the machine, maybe I can use the frother to make myself a complimentary cappuccino, while at the pool?

SFCAN Posted Tuesday at 01:31 PM #7 Share Posted Tuesday at 01:31 PM I was there last week, it looks like a frother but it was only for hot water. I didnt use it as a frother 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cublet Posted Tuesday at 01:47 PM #8 Share Posted Tuesday at 01:47 PM Hello, From the picture it looks like the one in the DL on Anthem (for about a year). It makes the full suite of espresso and milk based coffees - both regular and decaf (if set up correctly). Unusually both coffee and milk come out of the same delivery spouts and the wand on the right is for hot water. Regards, Cublet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think gas station coffee dispenser "latte". What you get is basically extremely condensed drip coffee. If that is fine with you, then you won't have a problem with it. This is from Apex (I think?) - ignore all of the "expresso" labels..... Similar machine on Beyond. This may be the one where we did all of the people watching as they were mystified at their 2oz coffee. I think this one was espresso only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
