ORIGINAL:
THE CLASSIC ESPRESSO EXPERIENCE

The Vertuo system uses Centrifusion™ technology to extract a variety of coffee styles. You can make espressos to larger cups with Vertuo, from a short espresso, a smooth gran lungo, to an indulgent pour-over style carafe - all topped with smooth and generous crema. Behind the scenes, Vertuo’s technology recognizes each capsule through a barcode reader to accurately adapt blend-specific brewing parameters 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.

All Nespresso capsules are made from aluminium and can be recycled. Bring your used capsules to one of our collection points, drop them off at your nearest Nespresso store or fill your recycling bag with used capsules and give it to the delivery team when they next deliver your order. By adding capsule recycling to your coffee ritual, your coffee won't only taste good - it feels good too.

Each capsule contains high quality, specially-selected ground coffee from coffee-growing lands worldwide. We start by choosing and picking the most quality beans. That's all thanks to our partners. We're working with 70,000 farmers who are committed as we are to cultivating these rare beans. Take your pick from the wide variety of capsules, each with its own distinctive character and aroma.

Nothing is more important than ensuring you enjoy the same high quality coffee, every time. From the bean to your cup, the quality and sustainability of your coffee is at the heart of who we are. Our commitment to you is to make sure you can enjoy the highest possible quality coffee, without taking any shortcuts. We've been working on our AAA Sustainable Quality Program™ with the Rainforest Alliance since 2003 to make sure we get your perfect cup of coffee precisely right each and every time.

Each Nespresso capsule flavour is different. Strong or smooth, crisp or creamy…the world is your oyster.

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.

Various scientific studies indicate that an intake of 300 to 400mg of caffeine from all sources per day for the normal healthy adult population does not cause any adverse effects on health. (If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult your doctor.)

Yes of course. 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 or biscuit notes when paired with milk. For sweet experiences, learn how you can realize creative recipes from our ultimate coffee creations.

A coffee cherry is the fruit on the coffee tree, whereas the coffee bean is found inside the coffee cherry. The coffee bean is the part of that will be roasted and ground for extraction to create your cup of coffee.
