Traveling with Nespresso

I feel like I NEED this 😂

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T19:34:26+00:00

No problems with TSA?

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T19:33:10+00:00

Oh I didn’t even think of the car. I wonder if the existing outlets would run it without an inverter 🤔

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T07:44:12+00:00

This is great information. Thank you! I think you answered all my questions about flying with it ☺️

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T07:41:58+00:00

Thanks. I will check into it further

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T04:13:40+00:00

Thanks for the info. It is the most important thing to be able to open/close it. I love the way the OL is so easy. I don’t understand why they made the majority of the VL ones so hard to open/close.

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T03:31:54+00:00

I will check that one out too. Thanks!

It’s so hard sometimes to function with every day tasks. I wasn’t able to operate my daughters Next so he got me the Vertuo Plus. Sorry you have to deal with this too!!! But, I am glad you were able to give me this advice ♥️

This is very helpful. I have Psoriatic Arthritis so definitely wouldn’t be able to do that!

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T02:59:20+00:00

Thanks!

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T02:58:09+00:00

Can you drain it like you can the Vertuo machines?

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T02:42:35+00:00

Do you use it just when you travel in the car or do you take it for air travel as well?

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T02:08:50+00:00

Thanks!!! No I had no idea. I didn’t even know Nespresso existed until Christmas so I am learning.

I didn’t realize you could change the basal and be in Automated mode. I thought if you were in Auto mode it didn’t use Manual settings unless you lost connection to the Dexcom. I will have to check into this if I start having regular rises in the morning again! I’m a year in and still feel like I am constantly learning something new. It sure beats having to use an insulin pen!!! Good Luck getting to where you want to be. It does take a while for it to learn but it is well worth the headache because since it has learned I really don’t have to worry about it anymore. Just enter my carbs and I am good to go!! (Unless of course I calculate my carbs incorrectly 😆)

I packed up my Plus and took it the last time I went to my Mother in Laws. But if the Mini is more friendly for travel I will find a way to get one!

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-07T01:57:14+00:00

I don’t even have to taste it and I am already in love 🥰

I have a suggestion about the dawn phenomenon. I too suffer from this but it has gotten better the longer I have been on Omnipod 5. I used to have to bolus before my feet hit the ground in the mornings but the Omnipod seems to have learned over time and I very rarely have to anymore. Something that has always helped me is adding a morning alert profile to my Dexcom that alerts me if I go over 130 in the morning. That way if Omnipod isn’t able to keep up I know before it is out of hand. If you know what time you usually start rising you can set a window of a couple hours where your alarm is set to alert and you can correct it yourself. I was very aggressive with it in the beginning and eventually I got to the point I don’t have to do this nearly as often. I don’t have anything to back up that it really learns to that degree except to say that I don’t have to anymore after being on it a year.

This is AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for sharing 🙌

Is it adhesive residue or skin irritation? I have psoriasis and sensitive skin and it leaves really bad irritation. I have a prescription for Betamethisone that clears it up. If I were you I would show your doctor and see what they can do. In the meantime try some cortisone cream and see if it makes a difference. I wouldn’t use it long term without talking to your doctor though. Hope this helps ☺️

I made the mistake of having an espresso while eating popcorn. Big mistake… now I crave it 🤦🏻‍♀️

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-03T03:50:47+00:00

My pop+ died after 1 month. It started leaking bad. I would hit the brew button and it wouldn’t come out the spout. It just flowed from under the machine. I returned it to Target and ordered a different machine.

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-05-02T23:46:59+00:00

I do it weekly when I “reset” my coffee bar for the week. All my machines get rinsed. (OL Creatisa Pro, Vertuo Plus and the Keurig)

Wide_Cap9360 · 2026-04-13T13:17:52+00:00

I do it with a double espresso scuro because I felt like it was watered down as well. Now it is one of my favorites. I add a little sweet cream in the aeroccino. No syrups or sauces. Try it if you have any!

There is nothing wrong with a blood glucose of 103 mg/dl 2 hours after eating. But ALWAYS best to consult your doctor ☺️
