Opening Your Wall Mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder, What’s Included
When you open your surface/wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder, the package will include the following items:
A single piece holder with the self adhesive strips pre-assembled.
Instructions on the front surface of the holder (to be used in conjunction with this article).
Packing Strips (depending on holder size purchased). Please note these strips are for packing purposes only and are not required for the installation of your holder.
1: Choosing A Suitable Surface To Install Your Surface Or Wall Mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder
As mentioned in the “Nespresso Vertuo Pod Holder - Simple, Stylish Wall Storage” article there are many potential surfaces to install your pod holder. Walls, ends of cupboards, inside of cupboards, they are all possible candidates.
One question to ask yourself is, do I want to see the holder or do I want it hidden from sight? If like me you like to display the pods then a wall or cupboard end is perfectly suitable as long as the surface is smooth and not heavily textured. Some tiles surface are quite rough and therefore not suitable for installation. If you are planning on placing your holder on the inside of a cupboard it’s still worth considering the surface roughness however cabinet surfaces tend to be fairly smooth and perfectly suitable for installation.
Choose the correct installation height. Your wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder is filled from the top and when in use the pods are also taken out from the top, so make sure that the pod holder is installed at a height that all users can reach.
Another consideration that sometimes gets overlooked is movement of people or doors in the kitchen. For example placing a wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder near a door way that get lots of traffic though could be a bad idea as the holder may get knocked. Or installing on the inside surface of a cupboard door may be fine when the door is open but you need to be mindful of shelves and items within the cupboard as the door is closed. These are just a couple of examples but it’s worth considering such things when choosing your installation surface.
2: How To Clean And Prepare The Surface Prior To Installation
The wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder has pre-installed double sided foam tapes on the rear surface, these are used to hold the pod holder on the selected installation surface. In order for these tapes to adhere effectively the installation surface must be completely free of dust, dirt, grease etc and hence must be cleaned and dried thoroughly before installation. To clean the installation surface we recommend cleaning with a mild dishwashing liquid/ water mix or other such cleaner, followed by a reasonable period to allow the surface to dry completely.
3: Placing Your Wall Mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder On The Surface
Remove the backing from the self adhesive strips and position the wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder on the surface/wall ensuring that it is level and positioned correctly. Once in place press down firmly along the lengths of the adhesive strips to ensure good adhesion. Please note that due to the self adhesive mounting method this product can only be installed once so it is essential to make sure the holder is in the correct place.
4: Removing The Protective Film From The Front Surface Of The Wall Mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder
Our wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder is shipped with a protective film on the front surface. Once you have installed your pod holder gently remove this film by lifting it at one corner and then pulling the film away across the face of the pod holder. Do not pull the film away perpendicular to the wall as this may pull the newly installed holder away from the wall.
5: Filling Your Wall Mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder With Your Favourite Blends Of Coffee
Now comes the fun part! Filling your wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder could not be easier. Simply fill the holder from the top and slide the pod to the down towards the bottom of the column, then repeat this process until the column is completely full. Removing the pods for use is exactly the same process in reverse, starting at the top. And that’s it you're all done, now the tricky part is to decide which blend to drink!
Looking After Your Wall Mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder
Your wall mounted Nespresso Vertuo capsule holder should not require any maintenance other than the very occasional clean. To do this remove all the pods. Wipe clean with a lint free damp cloth using a mild dishwashing liquid/water mix (do not use chemical cleaning products). Replace all pods.
