ARE ESPRESSO AND CAPPUCCINO THE SAME ?

espresso is coffee only whereas a cappuccino has frothed milk in it. A more complete definition is...Espresso is generally thicker than coffee brewed by other methods, has a higher concentration of suspended and dissolved solids, and has crema on top (literally cream, a creamy foam on the surface of the coffee). As a result of the pressurized brewing process the flavors and chemicals in a typical cup of espresso are very concentrated. Espresso is the base for other drinks, such as a caff latte, cappuccino, caff macchiato, cafe mocha, or caff Americano. Espresso has more caffeine per unit volume than most beverages, but the usual serving size is smaller-a typical 60 mL (2 US fluid ounces) of espresso has 80 to 150 mg of caffeine, a little less than the 95 to 200 mg of a standard 240 mL (8 US fluid ounces) cup of drip-brewed coffee.[

No. Espresso is simply the coffee shots. Cappuccino is espresso with steamed and/or foamed milk.

no! They have two lines of machines, and the pods aren't interchangeable. The VirtuoLine is the newer line of machines (which make coffee as well as espresso), and they now call the original machines the OriginalLine.

It is very close to espresso. You don't need to go with black. These are really nice.

No the pods are different. The pods for the Tassimo come in a silver bag latte cappuccino's all of that will have a milk pod and then the espresso pod. A tip that I found that works well when your Plus sign light comes on tap it to completely empty the milk pod. 10 times better then Keurig

Nespresso is really focused on espresso, latte and cappuccino drinks, but as part of their line of coffee capsules, they sell four different coffee varieties called "Lungo," which make a taller, lighter cup that tastes more like European coffee. If what you want is a quick coffee capsule that is more like American coffee, this isn't the way to go. If what you want is a drink reflective of a richer, stronger, European coffee, it is well worth trying the Lungo line.

Haven't tried regular coffee with this machine yet but I would get the Dallmayr Prodomo capsules for it! Been drinking the cappuccino and I really love it.

No. Only the Dolce Gusto pods work in these machines, and no fill-your-own pods or filters. If you want an occasional cappuccino and don't want the mess -- or to pay $4-5 at the coffee shop -- then this is the way to go. If you shop online with care, a cappuccino runs around $1 or a non-milk drink runs about half of that (esspresso, longo, americano, tea). We love ours. Considering getting one for my Mom, who prefers a European style coffee once or twice a day. The Dolce Gusto is perfect for that. FYI: the best deal we've found for pods is to "subscribe" either at the Dolce-Gusto store, or as of last week or so, here at Amazon. It's slightly cheaper here at Amazon, but to get the best price you need to buy 3-packs of the same flavor. The subscription doesn't have to be monthly and can be changed or cancelled any time. The next best price is by subscribing for four boxes at the Dolce Gusto store. That gets you free, fast shipping and you can mix the flavors any way that you like. Again, the subscription does not have to be monthly, and you can cancel it anytime. We don't want the same mix of flavors every month, so we cancel one subscription and immediately start another with the adjusted mix of flavors that we want in the next shipment.

The system is carefully designed to create the perfect steamed or frothed milk for your drink of choice. The milk carafe includes a clean function, and it's removable for convenient storage in the refrigerator, so no milk is wasted.

Espresso is about 40ml and Lungo is about 110ml. Some models also have Ristretto, which is about 25ml.

This pods are used with the espresso makers, you just add the water into the reservoir and you can brew a three ounce espresso shot or enough coffee to make a latte or cappuccino. But again,these are just to be used with espresso machines.

Yes. Instructions for making espresso are included.The results are a very rich smooth espresso. I do not drink espresso, lattes or cappucino daily,so when I make the espresso concentrate I freeze it in ice cube trays as recommended. Then I put the frozen cubes in a ziplock so they are available anytime. I use a SS milk pitcher to heat the milk on the stove top and my Bamix stik blender to froth my milk. Works great for me.

Yes - they are perfect for cappuccino - and too large but usable for espresso. Great for storage

they are available as different items...however, I purchased them as a package and I'm happy I did so. I gifted this to my daughter, and just now finished a great cup of cappaccino.

No that pod is way smaller I have had both and the taste of the coffee is similar but then espresso has to have that pod.

The latte macchiato has a very distinct 2 layer drink. it is also less 'milky' in taste. the cappucino uses more milk. At the end of the day, it does not differ much.
