Don’t hesitate
Finally, a viable alternative! I have 3 Nespresso machines: 2 Original Line and the Vertuoline. Recently, I have seen a marked deterioration in Nespresso’s customer service, so I was looking for alternatives. As soon as I heard about Peet’s capsules (fab coffee and fab customer Service) for my machines, I placed an early order.
YUM! I just made my first cup. The crema may be slightly ‘softer’, but it’s there. I made a shot, added a lungo shot of water, and warm cream. Delicious. Not bitter, and excellent flavor. This was the Richezza capsule. I also sipped it black before I added the water and cream... smooth and rich. I will update this review as I try the other flavors.
So pleased to reduce my spend with Nespresso. And: a bonus: when I received the box, I could not believe there were actually 40 capsules in it. The packaging is brilliant, compact, and no capsule dents. (See photo.)
