Nespresso Vertuo Up XN9408G0, black
Vertuo capsule machine, black, 1.4L rotating tank
Editorial review Reviewed 23 October 2026 How we assess products
Nespresso Vertuo Up XN9408G0 is the black Vertuo machine with a 1.4L rotating tank and concentrated-coffee mode. The shorter extraction suits coffee over ice or milk; it does not chill drinks or froth milk. Heating starts in about three seconds. The tank can sit left, right or behind, making refills more flexible but changing width and depth. Check lid clearance and cup space. Vertuo capsules cover short and larger drinks, with generous foam rather than traditional pressure-brewed crema. Brewing can be loud. Wi-Fi/Bluetooth app settings add drink adjustments and alerts, with some initial setup. Empty the capsule bin and tray and follow cleaning/descaling instructions. Nespresso Vertuo Pop is the smaller basic option; Nespresso Vertuo Creatista adds milk steaming. Choose Nespresso Vertuo Up for the tank and concentrated recipes, allowing for Vertuo capsule costs.
