ORIGINAL-LINE VS VERTUO: WHICH IS THE RIGHT CHOICE?
OriginalLine system
The OriginalLine Nespresso® system was first introduced to the market in 1986. The system was developed by Nestle and the inventor Eric Favre, and it revolutionized the way coffee was made at home. The OriginalLine system was designed to provide a convenient and easy way to make high-quality coffee at home, and it quickly became popular among coffee lovers.
The OriginalLine system uses small, pre-packaged coffee capsules that are inserted into a machine, which then uses high-pressure water to extract the coffee. This system made it easy for people to make coffee at home without the need for a separate grinder or a coffee filter. The OriginalLine system also allows for a consistent flavor and strength of coffee, as the same amount of coffee and water is used for each cup.
The OriginalLine system has evolved over time and now there are a wide range of machines, capsules, and accessories available, that cater to different needs and preferences. And it's still considered as one of the most popular systems among Nespresso® consumers.
Vertuo system
The Vertuo system was first introduced to the market by Nespresso® in 2017. The system was designed to offer a different coffee experience compared to the OriginalLine system. The Vertuo system uses a unique technology called Centrifusion, that spins the pod at high speed to extract the coffee, which allows for a larger volume of coffee.
The Vertuo system uses a different type of pods, that have a barcode that is read by the machine, this allows the machine to adjust the brewing parameters such as temperature, water flow and pressure to the specific coffee blend. The Vertuo system also offers a wide variety of blends and strengths, that cater to different needs and preferences.
The Vertuo system was introduced to the market as a response to the growing demand for bigger cups of coffee, such as mugs and cups, and also to offer a different coffee experience to the consumers. The system has been well received and it's considered as a popular alternative among Nespresso® consumers.
Vertuo vs. OriginalLine
The OriginalLine is the classic Nespresso® system that uses the original coffee pods that are available in many different blends and strengths. The OriginalLine system is suitable for espresso, lungo and other short coffee drinks.
The Vertuo system, on the other hand, uses a different kind of pods, that are designed to brew coffee with a larger volume, such as a mug or a cup. The Vertuo system uses Centrifusion technology that spins the pod at high speed to extract the coffee, which allows for a larger volume of coffee. The Vertuo line also offers a wide variety of blends and strengths.
Both systems have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice between them depends on your personal preference and the type of coffee you want to brew.
