Does crema come from additives?

No, it is 100% coffee.  The crema is a naturally-formed foam of coffee and air, produced during the extraction process and is the sign of high quality coffee as defined by the Specialty Coffee Association.

Our unique technology delivers the right balance of water temperature, quantity and speed, along with 19-bar pressure for our Original machines and Centrifusion for our Vertuo machines, creating a crema that is the marker of a traditional espresso.
