Yes! We chose aluminium for our capsules because it is currently the best solution to maintain the freshness of our coffee sustainably. Whilst aluminium is infinitely recyclable, meaning the aluminium can be remelted and reused to make new products time after time, we are constantly testing and investigating new materials to make our coffee even more sustainable for the future.
Recycle your capsules the easy way! Request a free recycling bag with your next coffee order. Pick one up in a Boutique, order online, or contact our Coffee Specialists here, to request one at any time.

The amount of caffeine in a capsule depends on the varieties of green coffee used in the recipe. The Robusta origin contains an average of 2.4% whereas the Arabica origins contain approximately 1.3% of caffeine. Decaffeinated capsules contain less than 0.1% of caffeine. The classic Nespresso capsules contain approx 5g of ground coffee whereas the Lungo capsules contain approx 6g of ground coffee.
Example: a pure Arabica coffee in a classic Nespresso capsule (5g) containing 5g x 1.3% = 0.065g= 65 milligrams (mg) of caffeine.
Below are examples or average caffeine contents according to the type of coffee preparation (values are based on UK Food Standards Agency):
Cup of filter coffee: 75mg
Mug of instant coffee: 100 mg
Tea cup: 50mg
Standard cola drink: up to 40mg
Standard energy drink: 80 mg
Dark chocolate bar: up to 50mg
Click yes to return to the FAQ, click no to ask your question.
Nespresso removes over 99.9% of the caffeine from green coffee by using two different methods. In the water decaffeination process, green coffee beans are soaked in hot water in order to dissolve the caffeine. In the carbon dioxide method, the green coffee is soaked in water after which carbon dioxide (one of the key constituents of air) is used to extract the caffeine.
Both methods are completely safe for coffee drinkers. The processes respect the environment and the coffee bean’s true nature, allowing us to maintain the strength, variety, and richness of the aromas. The decaffeinated Nespresso varieties undergo the same quality controls applied to all Nespresso Coffees.
The residual caffeine content in Nespresso decaffeinated blends is below 0.1%, in accordance with all regulatory requirements.

No other capsule material that we have examined can protect the freshness and aromas of our coffees, while interacting with our machines in such a way as to consistently produce the high-quality coffee that our consumers have come to expect.
In addition, aluminium has the unique advantage of being infinitely recyclable. The use of aluminium also allows us to eliminate the need for any additional packaging or over wrap to protect freshness, and its light weight offers transportation and environmental savings when compared to other materials.
Within the capsule, the coffee is separated from the aluminium by a food-grade lacquer.

Each blend is specifically created (strict bean selection, expert blending, roasting and grinding) for the best interplay and harmony with the brewing parameters produced by the Vertuo Line machines. As these parameters differ from those of the Original Line, it makes sense that the blends are different as well.

Nespresso capsules are hermetically sealed; protected from light, moisture and oxygen. At the end of every sleeve you will find both the "Production date" and the “Best before” date. The "Best before" date is approximately 6-11 months from the date of production. We guarantee that you receive your capsules at least two months before this date. As the date simply acts as an indicator of optimal freshness, flavor and aroma, unopened capsules are completely safe to consume after the "Best before" date.

Nespresso does not have any plans to add tea or hot chocolate capsules to our selection. We offer Limited Edition and flavour-infused Variations throughout the year.
Our foremost priority is sourcing the highest quality coffee beans and providing exquisitely unique Coffee and Espresso to our members worldwide. In addition, Nespresso machines are carefully calibrated to produce the perfect cup of coffee, time after time. They would not be ideal for steeping tea or making hot chocolate.

Express Checkout gives Members the opportunity to store their card details in their online account for online purchases, and also choose default delivery and payment methods for every online order, meaning they can ‘skip’ part of the normal ordering process, making online ordering much quicker.
You can activate Express Checkout when you are placing an order (just tick the options available on your order confirmation screen), or in your account details. Simply go to the ‘Express checkout’ option from the account menu.
Here you can change your default delivery address, delivery method and payment method, and add/remove stored cards as required. When you tick to activate Express Checkout for your next orders, you will go straight from the Shopping Bag page to Order Confirmation.
You will still need to agree to the Nespresso terms and conditions. You will also be given the option to change any details on this page if required, and save this as your preference for next time.

3D secure was created by Visa and Mastercard, to add another layer of security to online purchases, similar to Chip and PIN in stores.
The 3D secure pop-up will show you the personal message you used when you registered for 3D secure, and you will need to input your 3D secure password. The personal message selected at registration will be displayed so that you know that the popup is genuine. This pop-up is controlled by the bank the card is issued by, not by Nespresso.
