Hehe 😂 e vesela 🎉

@@hectormarty3120 you can reset it original settings

@@AlleCeambur Hi ... did it three times ...same result on both settings ... i will try to program the amount of water to 40ml. &110ml. maybe it will be closer to factory settings ! Thanks from the Caribbean Sea 🏖🏝 !

@@hectormarty3120 Thank you for watching my videos. You can also manually set the cup volume to 40ml by pressing on the button and lifting your finger when the coffee level reaches 40ml. Best to use a cup with grading so you know where the 40ml level is. But anyway, 60ml is also good!

@@girnaldojunior4366 thank you for watching my videos ❤️

I have tried both Segafreddo and Lavazza pods and I like both, but tend to buy more Lavazza - I feel the Lavazza coffee beans suit my taste more. But I have never tried them side by side, and I am also curious if it will make me change my mind! @jazminzayas2786

@@marymadelleine Nespresso has both India and Indonesia coffee pods - I have not tried either. I have tried Starbucks sumatra but not a fan of the herbal notes. Any recommendations?

@@the_Green_Dome thank you! I just shared my favorites from each category under 1 min. Hope you like it! kzfaq.infoVhXOIgfAN5g?si=L90kgWK-kBe21M_z

@@AlleCeambur Hey, wow and thank you 👍. I started with a Bambino to 'do my own' but after 3 bags of fresh beans and only producing watery acid I gave up. So I went onto pods. Tried most, including Asda own brand (yurrkk!). Love your videos as they have helped guide me to know what is what and which is good/bad. Thank you for responding; and thank you from a rainy day in Lancashire, UK! 🤗

@@the_Green_Dome Thank you for watching! Appreciate it ❤️

@@ani_ds12 I think this is a good point. I’ve tried several coffee capsule machines in hotels (eg Krups, Kellogg’s) but I did not like the coffee as much. But maybe 🤔 he just doesn’t like capsule coffee and that’s ok 👌 It’s not for everyone 😀

@@mercbenz Arpeggio is always in the top 3 most sold coffee pods. I’ve had it in quite a few hotels - but it’s just too “basic” for me now! Haha 😂 I always buy it, but never seem to reach for it as much as I reach for Paris, or Tokyo Lungo

@@AlleCeambur I'll give your suggestions a try. I've tried many, but always reach back to my addiction ;-)

Ciao!

Hi 👋 the black bits are dried coffee. I usually use a toothbrush to clean the inside and the nozzle, and run a plain water 💧 cup. Also might be a sign to descale your machine because those black bits will make your coffee taste more bitter.

I cannot comment on the citiz

@@AlleCeambur thank you I will clean it! And thanks for the quick response. Greetings from Holland 🇳🇱

It’s the Istanbul Espresso from Nespresso

In my opinion, pure coconut milk doesn't taste good in coffee. You can try the flavored coconut pods from Nespresso (for a Bounty Chocolate vibe) and add in some chocolate syrup or vanilla but don't make my mistake haha.

@@AlleCeambur true that

You can press the lungo with espresso pods, nothing bad will happen. The coffee will be more 3x more diluted.

Then I think both these pods are not for you. Really strong and bitter mostly because of Robusta beans 🫘

Glad you like them! I miss the Freddo pods, they’re not available (yet) in my region.

Cadiz it’s definitely growing on me! Initially was too strong and bitter but I’ve been reaching for it more!

Yes, it’s definitely a strong cup

Thank you too for watching!!!

Maybe I forgot to mention that I like some acidity in iced coffee, but since I mostly drink hot coffee (cappuccino) I don’t gravitate towards the sour/fermented flavors of acidic coffee.

I'm adding this to the list of videos to do! Thank you for your suggestion. I have tried LOR and No. 12 Kazaar but I'm not sure I can find Jacobs coffee pods in my region. Any other substitute from Lavazza, or Segafredo or Starbucks you'd like to add to the comparison? (Edit: I just ordered the Jacobs No 12 capsule)

Interesting question. I need to do more research into the effects of distilled water on Nespresso coffee. However, from my experience and based on what I have read so far, the best water for this Nespresso machine is "tap water". Mineral water contains various crystals (calcium, sodium, etc.) that over time can cause your machine to be clogged and stop working. I've also had friends who use tap water and their machine has clogged (beyond repair). I guess it all comes down to which country you're from and on the chemical composition of your tap water or mineral water you can find. For example, in many countries, we cannot drink tap water because it's dirty, and not suitable for cooking or drinking. I am curious to read more on this topic, and will do a video once I have an answer supported by research.

@@AlleCeambur Perhaps its a consideration of the lesser of 2 evils... better to descale the machine over time as routine maintenance, rather than to ingest metals?

@@go2c can you share articles with studies that distilled water causes heavy metal intoxication in Nespresso machines?

@@AlleCeambur JUST GOOGLE IT, includes Nespresso's own website.

I like both the purple and red (classico) 👍

@@AlleCeambur what is the red one like?

@@snezanavl8580 I find the Lavazza Ristretto(black), Intenso (purple) and Classico (red) quite similar. The difference is the red is less bitter (100% arabica) than purple (mix of Arabica and Robusta) and black.

@@AlleCeambur thank you I'll try the red one I like less bitter.

I have Magimix machine and the Lavazza Cups are generating first water and lateron coffee. Any one else having the same problem?

Ristretto Nespresso is a dark roast, balanced, but very strong and slightly bitter (because it had a blend of Arabica and Robusta), I like it because it’s versatile and I can use it hot, cold and even in iced coffee recipes. The Ristretto from Lavazza is not as complex in flavor and doesn’t hold flavor in iced recipes. Nespresso Roma is also balanced but more mild, 100% arabica and a true medium roast (not bitter). Goes well with milk, but I don’t think is strong enough for iced recipes.

Do you make sweet coffee with milk, syrups and ice?

Fun fact; there’s more real coffee in a Starbucks pod than in a Frappuccino.
