The foamier crema from the Vertuo doesn&#8217;t dissolve as neatly, leaving a residue that I find slightly <strong>less appealing<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this is a matter of <strong>personal taste<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This particular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/nespresso\/comments\/107y5it\/comment\/j3p7i09\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Nespresso user<\/a> preferred the original line because they like<strong> espressos and lattes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, Melissa <strong>from our team<\/strong> has a different take. She prefers the Vertuo system, especially for crafting more <strong>complex <\/strong>coffee drinks like lattes and cappuccinos.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Melissa:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Vertuo&#8217;s crema and its integration into milk-based beverages add a new dimension to these drinks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her perspective has opened my eyes to <strong>Vertuo&#8217;s potential<\/strong>, especially for those who enjoy a broader range of coffee experiences beyond the traditional espresso shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aptly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This <strong>divergence in preferences<\/strong> within our team highlights the subjective nature of coffee enjoyment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I lean towards the Original for its traditional <strong>espresso

\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Deceptively:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This variance in capsule price may seem negligible at first glance, but when you consider it <strong>in the long run, the implications are pretty clear.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have to consider the <strong>difference in price<\/strong> from region to region. A great example of this <strong>discrepancy<\/strong> becomes obvious when you look at the price of Vertuo pods in the U.S. compared to other countries, as this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/nespresso\/comments\/136jce2\/nespresso_vertuo_pods_in_the_us_are_expensive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Nespresso user<\/a> pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cost difference becomes more pronounced considering my daily coffee consumption. Opting for the <strong>Original system<\/strong> means each cup of coffee is more affordable, and this difference accumulates over the <strong>months and years<\/strong> of use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the flexibility of extending an espresso shot with hot water in the Original system caters to my preference for Americano-style coffee, it also represents a significant <strong>cost advantage<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is especially true when <strong>comparing the expense<\/strong> of larger capsules in the Vertuo system to the simple addition of hot water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The advent of third-party capsules compatible with the Nespresso Original system further enhances its <strong>cost-effectiveness<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the patent expiration, various brands now offer compatible capsules, often at <strong>lower prices<\/strong> than Nespresso&#8217;s.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be aware that your brewer might have <a href=\"https:\/\/hollicoffee.com\/nespresso-not-puncturing-capsules\/\">problems puncturing pods<\/a> or capsules. You might want to stick with Nespresso Capsules while troubleshooting this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My preference leans towards the Nespresso <strong>Original system<\/strong>, not just for its lower capsule costs but also for its <strong>flexibility<\/strong> in customizing my coffee experience at a more manageable expense.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Vertuo system has its merits, especially for those who prefer the convenience of larger, <strong>barcode-specific<\/strong> brews, the economic and <strong>flexible nature<\/strong> of the Original system suits my personal and financial coffee consumption preferences better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Environmental-Considerations\"><\/span>Environmental Considerations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bigger capsules in the Vertuo machine mean <strong>more material<\/strong> used per cup of coffee, posing environmental issues.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d suggest opting for the Original system for smaller, more <strong>compact capsules<\/strong>, enabling a more eco-friendly choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pros-Cons\"><\/span>Pros &amp; Cons<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nespresso Original<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-a5fd153b pros-cons-box\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column pros-box has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#ecf3d6\">\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-230738c9 gb-headline-text\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"pros-list\">\n<li>Lower capsule cost<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More capsule variety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Eco-friendly options available<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compact design<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column cons-box has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#fddfda\">\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-b1d49644 gb-headline-text\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"cons-list\">\n<li>Limited to smaller coffee sizes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Manual strength customization<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Higher effort for larger drinks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nespresso Vertuo<\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-0f7bf2c0 pros-cons-box\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column pros-box has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#ecf3d6\">\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-0de25354 gb-headline-text\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"pros-list\">\n<li>Versatile cup sizes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rich crema with centrifusion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>One-touch operation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quality coffee for larger brews<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column cons-box has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"background-color:#fddfda\">\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-93f40805 gb-headline-text\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"cons-list\">\n<li>Higher capsule cost<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Limited capsule variety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Larger machine size<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Must-buy capsules from Nespresso<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final-Verdict\"><\/span>Final Verdict<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After weighing the pros and cons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s clear that both the <strong>Nespresso Original<\/strong> and <strong>Vertuo<\/strong> have their strengths.
