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.
The caffeine concentration depends partly on the amount of coffee used to prepare the coffee, and the variety of green coffee used in the capsule. The Robusta origin contains an average of 2.4% whereas the Arabica origins contain approx. 1.2% of caffeine. Decaf capsules contain less than 0.1% of caffeine. On average, a Nespresso Original Line coffee contains between 50 mg and 90 mg of caffeine/cup.
