Frequently asked questions

The Vertuo range is a totally new spin on coffee, with an all-new design for the ultimate coffee brewing experience. Offering freshly brewed large cups of coffee with crema, as well as delicious, authentic espresso, the Vertuo machine range makes five cup sizes at the touch of a button: Alto (414ml), Mug (230ml), Gran Lungo (150ml), Double Espresso(80ml), and Espresso (40ml).

Centrifusion™ of the Nespresso VertuoLine ensures you get every drop of flavor from each Nespresso capsule. The capsule spins up to 7,000 rotations per minute, blending ground Coffee with hot water and producing the perfect crema to complement your favorite Coffee or Espresso.

The Vertuo machine uses bar codes on the capsules to identify which coffee is being prepared. The machine reads the code to recognise the capsule and then adjusts the amount of water, speed of extraction and other parameters to prepare each blend and cup size in an optimal way.

Vertuo is the first single-serve system to brew large-cup coffee with crema, as crema has traditionally been a feature of espresso. Crema is a naturally formed foam of coffee and air, produced during the extraction process. It is a sign of ultimate coffee quality, enhancing the tasting pleasure. The crema protects coffee aromas, sealing them in the cup until they are released as you enjoy your coffee. The crema allows you to benefit from the full aromatic profile. 

No. The Nespresso Original and Vertuo use different capsules, which interact with the systems in different ways.

The amount of caffeine is different for each coffee and depends on two factors: the proportion of Robusta in the blend (Robusta contains twice as much caffeine as Arabica), and the quantity of ground coffee used to prepare the cup. For Vertuo, caffeine per cup ranges from 60 to 150 mg for Espresso, from 120 to 200 mg for Gran Lungo sizes, from 130 to 200 mg for Mug and Alto size, and from 4-12mg for Decaffenato capsules.

There are ten capsules per sleeve. The side panels on the sleeves show the coffee name, the cup size and the intensity. The coffee description as well as the aromatic profile with milk are on the bottom of the package.

Yes, completely, by means of the sophisticated production process, which is exclusive to the Nespresso capsule. The principle involves placing the exact portion of freshly roasted and ground coffee into a hermetically-sealed capsule, to protect it from air and light, thus enabling the quality and freshness of the coffee to be preserved for twelve months.

Nespresso chose to develop its own distribution network in order to guarantee its customers coffee of superior quality and freshness.
To cater for people who aren't able to visit the Boutiques or who don't have access to the Internet, for some time now we have been operating a free-phone service so that our customers can speak directly with one of our expert coffee advisers.
As a result, we have developed a simple means for consumers to order their capsules or obtain advice on the choice of Premium Blends, their origins, the operation of their machines and even the accessories.

Absolutely not. The subtle flavours and aromas and the thick and perfectly textured crema of Nespresso coffee is simply a result of the Nespresso system, which ensures the complete control of all of the essential parameters involved in the preparation of exceptional coffee. We achieve this by selecting only the highest quality green coffee, using expert roasting techniques, ensuring the preciseness of the grinding and the exact portion of ground coffee in each capsule and by developing technology that incorporates a 19 bar pressure pump to ensure the even and rapid distribution of water through the capsule, just like the machines used by Baristas. All of this know how, combined with our advanced technology allows us to produce exceptional coffee without having to add anything artificial.

The caffeine content per brewed capsule will vary between approximately 50 and 85 mg (with the exception of Kazaar, which has approximately 125 mg). For more details, please check the below.

▶Caffeine for Ristretto (25ml), Expresso (40ml), Lungo (110ml) : 50~85ml    (Exception : Kazaar 120mg, Envivo Lungo 100ml)

▶Caffeine for Decaffeinato capsules : 2~4mg

In 2003, together with the  Rainforest Alliance,  we launched our own programme to benefit our coffee growers: the Nespresso AAA Sustainable Quality™ Program. The partnership brought together the Nespresso expertise and knowledge in highest quality coffee cultivation with the twenty years of experience that the Rainforest Alliance has of helping farmers on the path to sustainability. It guarantees growers, from whom we buy coffee, benefits derived from a shared commitment to ultimate quality. Today, almost half of the coffee used by Nespresso comes from this programme. We aim to reach 80% by 2013.To find out more, please visit nespresso.com/ecolaboration

The sign means to fill the water tank. Please fill the water into the tank fully.

Please clean the Aeroccino after each use. Rinse it with cold water and use a soft cloth for cleaning. Never use aggressive cleaning materials because the teflon-cover could be damaged.

The Aeroccino is a thermostatic (temperature sensitive) device which automatically powers off after reaching a set temperature. It does not detect the amount of froth being produced in the jug. As the Aeroccino is designed to heat the jug and rotate the whisks, it is functioning properly.

Be sure that the correct max fill line was utilized with the correct whisk. When using the frothing whisk, which has a coil for cappuccinos and macchiatos, fill milk to the lower maximum fill line. When using the hot milk whisk for lattes, you can fill it to the higher maximum fill line.

Different brands and types of milk will produce different qualities/quantities of froth. We find that UHT (Ultra High Temperature) milk produces very consistent froth. Milk quality fluctuates throughout the year, so the same brand and fat content may produce a different froth in the spring than it does in the winter

If your Aeroccino begins to overflow, you can safely remove it from its base without damaging the device.

Please note that the Aeroccino is designed to warm the milkfroth to the temperature of 60 to 70 degrees only for optimal forth results.

If you require further support for your Aeroccino, or any other machine related matters (including warranty claims), please contact the Nespresso Club directly via our toll free number 080-734-1111 or email from our website. A trained Coffee Specialist will be happy to assist you.

Nudge the whisk slightly; it might be that the magnetism stopped for a short time. Check the function of the other whisk if it’s working.

Rinse inside of the jug and the whisk with cold, running water and make sure to wipe with a damp, non-abrasive sponge or paper towel to remove milk residue after each time use.

For the Aeroccino 3, Check that the ON-OFF button is ON (red LED lighted)

If you require further support for your Aeroccino, or any other machine related matters (including warranty claims), please contact the Nespresso Club directly via our toll free number 080-734-1111 or email from our website. A trained Coffee Specialist will be happy to assist you.

Check type of milk: 1,5 % fat content, stored cool, package should be open max. 2 days

When selling imported electronics, only products with the certificate of electric safety can be imported.

In this case, Nespresso coffee machines rated 220V/60Hz can cause accidents as an uncertified product if products that are not certified are repaired and problems occur.

Different from PCs or other electronics, coffee machines do not have a separate power converter and 220V/60Hz electricity is supplied directly.

Ristretto button is of 25ml, the Espresso button is of 40ml and the Lungo bottom is of 110ml.

Please verify the details below. The machine may not work temporary in any of the cases below :
Verify the outlet. If it is connected to an multi-tap, please try to connect in an outlet on the wall.
Verify the power bottom to check if it is switched on ON.

Please call Nespresso Club at 080-734-1111 (365 days, 24 hours, toll-free) if the problem persists.

The best temperature for Nespresso capsule coffee is between 83 to 89 degrees.
This temperature provides the best taste and aroma, and we recommend you to drink it as soon as it is done. Please understand the temperature cannot be adjusted in our coffee machines.

Tip: Warm-up your cup by extracting only water before making your coffee and placing the capsule. You may be able to enjoy even warmer coffee.

Please verify the details below. The machine may not work temporary in any of the cases below:

Verify whether it is an original Nespresso capsule.
Empty the capsule container if it is full. Remove capsules jammed in the machine (if any).
Verify whether the capsure is crushed or damaged. (in this case, the capsule may not fit in the entrance hole and may fall in the container. Unfold to the sides manually and retry)

* Compatible capsules may not be usable. Capsules produced and purchased before 2008 cannot make coffee.

When selling imported electronics, only products with the certificate of electric safety can be imported.

In this case, Nespresso coffee machines rated 220V/60Hz can cause accidents as an uncertified product if products that are not certified are repaired and problems occur.

Different from PCs or other electronics, coffee machines do not have a separate power converter and 220V/60Hz electricity is supplied directly.

If a Nespresso coffee machine of 110V is connected directly in a 220V voltage, all main components such as the PCB board, thermobloc, high-pressure pump, etc. are damaged and must be changed. Such repair is not possible as there are no 110V components available in Korea.

This type of symptom may be related to a damage to the power switch or the temperature senser.

Please try turning it off and turning it on again after 30 minutes. Please call Nespresso Club at 080-734-1111 (365 days, 24 hours, toll-free) if the problem persists
