What are the two different types of Nespresso machines?
At Nespresso, we offer two unique coffee systems, the Original and Vertuo. The Original range of coffee machines offers a classic espresso experience, using high-pressure extraction and the perfect balance between water temperature, quantity and speed. It translates to ‘restricted’ in Italian and is smaller, stronger and more concentrated than an espresso. Still made on your espresso machine, though. If you put ristretto, lungo and espresso on a scale, espresso would be in the middle, with lungo on one side and ristretto on the other.Lungo (A Long Shot of Espresso) A lungo shot of espresso looks about the same size as a doppio (double) espresso, although the difference is that a lungo is much more watered down with double the amount of hot water than a regular espresso shot.
What do the three buttons on the Nespresso mean?
On a Nespresso® U model, there are three different buttons / cup sizes to choose from – Lungo, Espresso or Ristretto. We recommend a cup size of 100 ml for a Lungo, 40 ml for an Espresso and 25 ml for a Ristretto. All Original Nespresso machines have an Espresso (small) and Lungo (large) cup button. They should pour your coffee to 40ml and 110ml, respectively. If the pour volumes on your machine are different to this, the cup size settings may have been changed or the machine may need to be descaled.Nespresso capsules for Vertuo machines ONLY work in Nespresso Vertuo machines and Nespresso capsules for Original machines only work in Nespresso Original machines.Because of their shape and size, coffee pods are not compatible with Nespresso original line brewers.
