I have used this capsule in multiple formats and it performs acceptably only as a lungo. The lungo cup is smooth, mild, low in acidity, and easy to drink. It does not have harsh edges and will suit people who prefer gentler coffee. However, running it as an espresso produced a very weak and hollow shot with almost no body. Trying it as a short Americano was even less successful—it became thin, diluted, and lacked any flavour presence. It is simply not designed for those formats. When compared with Nespresso’s own lungo capsules (for example, Stockholm), the difference in body, crema and overall presence is substantial. It remains a mild and neutral option, but far from the richness and structure of the original Nespresso lungos. Not in the same league as Nespresso originals, but perfectly acceptable as a daily cup at a budget price point
