You can make espressos to larger cups with Vertuo
– from a short Espresso, a smooth Gran Lungo, an indulgent Coffee or a bigger cup of Alto topped with smooth and generous crema. Behind the scenes, the technology uses gentle Centrifusion™ extraction, recognizing each capsule and adapting the parameters accordingly to create your perfect coffee style. With Original, you can also enjoy the same smooth, authentic taste of your coffee
– from Ristretto, Espresso, Lungo, to americano and milk recipes. Original machines use a high-pressure 19 bar extraction system to release the fresh aromas from each capsule.

Try crafting a variety of coffee and milk recipes, Cappuccinos or Lattes too using the Aeroccino or the built-in one-touch system.

You can precisely prepare your small or large coffee with generous and silky crema, as each Vertuo machines uses barcode recognition and a brewing extraction system to create your coffee experience.

Various scientific studies indicate that an intake of 300 to 400mg of caffeine from all sources per day for the normally healthy adult population does not cause any adverse effects on health.

Expressed in cups, it means 300-400mg of caffeine typically represents 4-5 cups of Nespresso Original coffees, or 2 to 5 cups of coffees for Vertuo coffees which may vary according to blend.

Official recommendations for pregnant and breastfeeding women, however, are that:

– they reduce their intake to 200-300 mg of caffeine per day,

– the equivalent of 3 to 4 cups of Nespresso Original coffees per day, 1 to 4 cups for Vertuo coffees.

Coffee is a very versatile drink that can be drunk and prepared in many ways. Nespresso proposes you a machine and a coffee to give you a perfect cup of coffee, time after time. Depending on the blend you choose, you can have a very strong Italian like espresso, or a larger smooth coffee, to a chocolate flavored coffee.

Yes of course it depends on what you are looking for. Eg: Kazaar and Napoli are coffees that will preserve their roasted character in contrast with lighter coffees like Volluto for example that evolve more under the influence of milk. Intense coffees have the unique ability to retain their roasty, smoky and pleasing bitterness, even with the addition of milk into recipes. Lighter coffees on the other hand will develop caramel/biscuit notes when drunk with milk.
