In addition to the large Mug (230 ml) and Espresso (40 ml), French coffee lovers also have the choice of Gran Lungo (150 ml). New Vertuo cup size, Grands Crus and machinesįor the Vertuo launch in France, Nespresso developed a third cup size option. The capsule then spins up to 7,000 rotations per minute, optimising the flow of water through the coffee to extract the best flavours and create an incomparable crema, every time. The infusion phase allows the water to thoroughly saturate the roasted and ground coffee. Based on the data printed on the capsule, the machine precisely calibrates settings such as infusion time, water temperature and flow rate, rotational speed and cup length. The intelligent extraction system uses barcode technology to recognise the different brewing parameters for each Vertuo Grand Cru. Its unique combination of centrifugal force and infusion creates a perfect balance between intensity, aroma and crema, even in a large cup.
