"These resealing pods do have some benefits, such as cutting down on the waste of single-use capsules or saving some money. But if your goal is to use your own brand of ground coffee to get a better-tasting drink, you might need to reconsider. Nespresso original line machines (but not Vertuo machines) will work with third-party capsules, but the brand uses a patented rim on its aluminum pods. This bit of tech ensures a tighter seal and, subsequently, a more expertly brewed cup of coffee."
"Nespresso's original line offers around 30 flavors, as well as regular limited-edition releases, so there's bound to be a capsule that suits your tastes. The first thing to consider is how you drink your coffee. Ristretto or espresso capsules are suitable for enjoying as an intense shot or as the base of a cafe-style drink like a latte or cappuccino. Lungo capsules produce a longer coffee similar to an Americano, designed for sipping black."
Nespresso users can choose branded aluminum capsules or resealable third-party pods that cut waste and save money. Nespresso original-line machines will accept compatible third-party capsules, but the brand's patented rim on aluminum pods creates a tighter seal and supports a more expertly brewed cup. Resealable pods generally hold less coffee, which reduces extraction strength compared with single-use capsules. For distinct single-origin flavors, save specialty ground coffee for manual brewing techniques. Nespresso's original line offers around 30 flavors plus limited editions, and capsule types (ristretto, espresso, lungo) suit different serving styles.
