The intensity rating is based on how long the coffee was roasted for and to what degree: light intensity coffee was lightly roasted high-intensity coffee has a dark roast and more bitterness to it. In the meantime, we’ve split the coffee we have tasted into sections.įor each capsule, we’ve listed our rating out of five, the volume of drink that’s produced, and Nespresso’s intensity rating. We’ll be adding to this list as we try new varieties. We’re making our way through everything available, rating each type of coffee for its quality and taste. Don’t let that put you off, as there’s a huge variety on offer, including seasonal variations that are on-sale for a limited time only. Vertuo pods are available from Nespresso only. Here, we look at the best Nespresso Vertuo pods Each blend is different in terms of flavour and the way it’s brewed: the barcode around the edge of the capsule is used by the machine to brew each pod differently. Larger and brewed with centrifugal force, the Vertuo system is mostly designed to produce longer cups of coffee.

The reason for this swap around is so you can pour the short black in as soon as it’s extracted, preserving more of the crema.Launched with the Nespresso Vertuo Plus coffee machine, Nespresso’s new Vertuo pods are quite different from those in the original machine. Also not to be confused with a lungo is a long black, where you add a short black directly to the hot water – basically the opposite of an Americano. This shouldn’t be confused, however, with an Americano, which is an Italian style coffee with hot water added. What this means is that on the whole they can be a little more mild but still maintaining flavour and intensity.Ī lungo is also sometimes called a ‘stretched coffee’, and in French it is called a café allongé.
However, a lungo is designed to fill up more of your cup – basically taking up a little more room.
You are extracting the flavour from your coffee in the same way and it is still under high pressure as it flows into your cup. It is a longer coffee which tends to be popular in a number of countries, especially in Europe. This forms the base and the heart & soul of drinks such as your macchiatos, flat whites and lattes. Many of us are familiar with espresso – many of us have ‘a shot of espresso’ or two (or three or more!!) in our coffee. The Difference Between an Espresso and a Lungo
