You Should Use High-Intensity Nespresso Pods For One Particular Drink
BY MICHELLE WELSCH
For Nespresso machine owners, strategically choosing capsules can up the chances that the drink you create is as delicious as one you might pick up from a professional barista.
Higher intensity capsules offer fuller-bodied coffee with richer, more bitter tasting notes. Bolder dark roast coffees are due to an extended roasting process.
The strength, however, doesn't refer to the amount of caffeine packed into the pods. Higher intensity capsules offer fuller-bodied coffee with richer, more bitter tasting notes.
The Napoli is ranked as a 13 on the intensity scale. The capsule contains dark, creamy coffee with the taste of roasted chocolate that can be bitter when served as a straight shot.
Palermo Kazaar, listed as a 12 intensity, yields a dark Robusta blend that can bring waves of spicy, woodsy notes to the next homemade cappuccino you serve.
