In the beginning, we will speak of the following pod types:

  • Two types of espresso;
  • Dolce Gusto Light Roast;
  • Dolce Gusto Dark Roast;
  • Dolce Gusto Medium Roast.

Dolce Gusto Espresso

Espresso is a basis for almost every coffee beverage. Nescafe Dolce Gusto has two types of pods for espresso. Those are:

  • espresso;
  • espresso intenso.

Espresso

Espresso is 100% pure Arabica carefully roasted and ground. Under the pressure of 15 bars, each espresso pod gives 180 ml of perfect coffee with foamy velvety cream at the top. Dolce Gusto espresso pod has an intensity for about 5 of 11. So, a cup of this coffee may become a perfect beginning of your morning.

Espresso intenso

Intenso is Robusta and Arabica coffee beans middle-dark roasted and ground. One pod gives 180 ml of intense, strong espresso with the same traditional for each espresso beverage velvety foam. Espresso Intenso is very useful not only in the morning while you are beginning your day. It also will help you to stay awake during the day. One cup of the drink has intensity for about 7 of 11. It is really strong.

Dolce Gusto Light Roast

Light Roast Dolce Gusto coffee has a unique tender taste.
