The Nespresso Vertuo Up machine debuts at the immersive Vertuo World experience at The Exchange TRX
KUALA LUMPUR, 14 JULY 2026: Nespresso today introduced the all-new Vertuo Up machine, the centrepiece of the brand’s global Vertuo World campaign, built on the idea that every press of a button opens a new world of coffee possibilities.
To mark the launch, Nespresso Malaysia hosted an immersive Vertuo World roadshow at The Exchange TRX, giving coffee lovers early access. Guests moved through three experiential zones — Morning World, Cloud World and Pool World — tasting coffees, watching live recipe demonstrations and experiencing Vertuo Up through hot and iced preparations. A journey card activity offered gifts redeemable upon completion.
A machine engineered around a single press
The Vertuo Up machine brings the full breadth of the Vertuo system home — is ready to brew in three seconds from a cold start. Connectivity through the Nespresso Smart App gives owners control over cup size and temperature, real-time maintenance alerts, and access to a growing recipe platform.
At the heart of the machine is Centrifusion™ Technology, the brewing system that spins each capsule at high speed while infusing it with hot water, drawing out its flavour and finishing every cup with Nespresso’s signature velvety crema. Vertuo Up introduces a new vertical capsule orientation that gives the machine a slimmer footprint, along with a redesigned lever that opens and closes with a smooth, fluid motion. The body is built from over 70% recycled plastic.
Coffee Creations mode: made for milk and ice
The dedicated Coffee Creations mode sits at the centre of the Vertuo Up experience, a concentrated extraction setting made for milk-based, plant-based and over-ice preparations. It brews a bold base that keeps its character when combined with milk or poured over ice, a quality suited to the iced and milk-forward coffee many Malaysians already enjoy. The machine works with over 30 Vertuo coffees across six cup sizes, from a 25ml ristretto to a 535ml carafe.
Nespresso continues to evolve alongside coffee lovers and their moods. Served over ice to beat the Malaysian heat? Why not. Milk-based or plant-based, classic or invented on the spot? Endless possibilities. Every cup turns into an invitation to ask: What Else?
Nespresso x Blue Bottle Coffee: the NOLA Style Blend
Debuting alongside Vertuo Up at the Malaysia launch is the Nespresso x Blue Bottle Coffee NOLA Style Blend, a collaboration that brings the cold-brew tradition of New Orleans into the Vertuo capsule system, marking the first time the NOLA style has come to Malaysian homes through the Vertuo platform.
Combining Arabica beans from Brazil with a touch of premium Mexican Robusta, the blend displays strong cereal and caramelised notes enhanced by the chicory taste when combined with milk, in particularly oat milk. This Double Espresso capsule carries a high caffeine profile and is ideally suited to iced preparation.
The collaboration extends to the Nomad Tumbler Blue Bottle Coffee edition, a co-branded tumbler made to travel with the iced coffee it was built for.
Cyndi Chin, Business Manager for Nespresso Malaysia said: “Vertuo Up is designed for modern coffee lovers—fast enough for a weekday morning, versatile enough for a weekend afternoon over ice, and connected enough to grow with your tastes over time. Bringing this alongside the NOLA Style Blend collaboration gives Malaysia something genuinely new: a coffee culture that is curious, inventive, and always asking what else is possible.”
The Vertuo Up machine is available now at Nespresso boutiques across Malaysia and at nespresso.com/my.
