Its 33.81-fl-oz water tank, 19-bar pump and integrated Aeroccino 3 milk system are designed to deliver espresso, lungo and milk-based recipes with minimal fuss.Technical specifications from De'Longhi list the EN267BAE model with a 33.81-fl-oz water tank, 19-bar pump and Aeroccino 3 milk system.
Design, Dimensions and Everyday Use
The CitiZ & Milk EN267BAE is built as a slim counter-friendly machine, with listed dimensions of 8.61 x 14.6 x 10.9 inches and a product weight of 8.71 lb.De'Longhi's spec sheet gives the EN267BAE footprint as 8.61x14.6x10.9 inches and weight 8.71 lb. The water container holds 33.81 fl oz, enough for multiple espresso and lungo shots before refilling.The same technical table lists water container capacity at 33.81 fl oz.
The machine is rated at 1260 W with 120 V, 60 Hz input and uses Nespresso's 19-bar pressure system to extract Original line capsules.De'Longhi lists input power at 1260 W, voltage at 120 V and pump pressure at 19 bar. Used capsules drop into an internal container that holds up to 10 capsules before emptying.The technical data lists a used capsule container capacity of 10 capsules.
Brewing Performance and Milk Frothing
CitiZ & Milk is built around two programmable one-touch buttons for espresso and lungo recipes, combined with automatic flow stop to deliver consistent volumes for each drink.Nespresso's technical information describes two programmable buttons with automatic flow stop for espresso and lungo coffees. Heat-up time is listed at around 25 seconds, which puts it among the quicker Original line machines for reaching brewing temperature.A Nespresso US listing for CitiZ & Milk cites a 25-second heat-up time and 19-bar pump.
Milk frothing is handled by a built-in Aeroccino 3 milk system mounted on the machine base, designed for hot or cold milk froth in a few seconds using a single button.De'Longhi's model overview highlights the Aeroccino milk system and autocappuccino features. Nespresso's own description emphasizes the ability to create espresso, lungo and different milk-based recipes like cappuccinos and lattes using the same capsule platform.The CitiZ & Milk technical sheet mentions milk recipes and espresso, lungo and larger recipes like gran lungo and iced options.
Controls, Safety and Energy Features
The EN267BAE uses simple button controls without a digital display, focusing on programmable volume buttons and a manual lever for capsule insertion.De'Longhi lists the control method as button and display type as no display. For cups and mugs, the machine uses an adjustable cup support with a foldable drip tray that allows taller glasses for milk recipes or smaller espresso cups as needed.The CitiZ family overview mentions adjustable cup support and fast heat-up time among the core features.
Automatic energy features are a key part of the design, with an auto-off function that shuts the machine down after a defined period of inactivity to reduce power consumption.The Citiz product page lists auto-off and Nespresso eco mode as features. Nespresso also notes an energy-saving mode that turns the machine off after about nine minutes when describing CitiZ & Milk models sold in the US.The US CitiZ & Milk listing cites a 9-minute auto-off function as part of the energy-saving design.
Price Point, Warranty and Box Contents
De'Longhi currently lists the Nespresso CitiZ & Milk Espresso Machine EN267BAE in black eco packaging at $379.00 for the US market.$379.00 is the current price for the CitiZ & Milk EN267BAE listed on De'Longhi's US Citiz page. That figure sits comfortably in the band for capsule espresso machines that integrate milk frothing hardware in the same footprint.
For protection, Nespresso and De'Longhi specify a limited one-year warranty on the CitiZ & Milk for household use.The Nespresso US machine listing includes a one-year warranty statement. Box contents typically include the machine chassis with integrated Aeroccino 3, a removable 33.8-fl-oz water tank, drip tray, capsule container and a welcome set of Nespresso capsules so users can test multiple blends and intensities.De'Longhi notes that each machine includes a welcome set with 14 Nespresso capsules and describes the included Aeroccino 3 system.
Comparison With CitiZ Without Milk Frother
Within the same Citiz lineup, Nespresso and De'Longhi also sell a CitiZ espresso machine without the integrated Aeroccino, listed as EN167B at $319.00.The Citiz lineup shows the CitiZ & Milk EN267BAE at $379.00 and the CitiZ EN167B at $319.00. The EN167B carries the same basic capsule platform and auto-off features but omits the built-in Aeroccino 3 milk system, making it better suited to drinkers who only want straight espresso or lungo.
For users who plan to prepare cappuccinos, lattes or other milk-heavy drinks regularly, the roughly $60 price difference between EN267BAE at $379.00 and EN167B at $319.00 reflects the integrated frother hardware and milk control convenience.De'Longhi's Citiz overview lists both prices side by side, showing a $60 spread between the two models. By contrast, a separate stand-alone milk frother adds another device on the counter, so CitiZ & Milk prioritizes a unified footprint that keeps espresso extraction and frothing in one place.

Placement in the Original Line Ecosystem
In the broader Original line ecosystem, CitiZ & Milk sits between compact single-serve machines and more elaborate bar-style hardware, pairing a 19-bar capsule pump with an integrated milk system rather than a steam wand. It is designed for household counter use, backed by Nespresso through Nestlé USA, Inc. based in Arlington, VA, which distributes Nespresso products in the United States.Nestlé USA identifies Nespresso as one of its main US businesses and locates its headquarters in Arlington, Virginia.
For US shoppers weighing Original line machines, CitiZ & Milk EN267BAE is most compelling when paired with a steady diet of milk drinks and limited counter depth. Those who want only straight espresso and lungo can look to the slightly cheaper CitiZ EN167B, while users who want larger water tanks or more manual steam control may consider other Nespresso or third-party options in the capsule space. As it stands, the EN267BAE offers a balanced trade-off between capacity, footprint, integrated milk frothing and price for daily capsule espresso with milk.
