Crema is a naturally formed foam of coffee and air. It is produced during the extraction process and 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 the coffee drinker enjoys his/her coffee. The crema allows consumers to benefit from the full aromatic profile. This is the first single-serve system to brew large-cup coffee with crema, as crema has traditionally been a feature of espresso.
The crema of Original Espressos and Lungos is dense and creamy while the crema from the Vertuo is more generous.
