Caffè Borbone Crema Classica aluminum capsules for Nespresso Original machines — 100-count, medium roast, rich crema

Caffè Borbone Crema Classica aluminum capsules are medium-roast espresso pods made for Nespresso Original-style machines, delivering a balanced, caramel-sweet cup with a thick golden crema.

This 100-count pack contains ten boxes of ten aluminum capsules each, blended from Arabica and Robusta beans sourced across South America, Africa and Asia. The pods are sealed to trap aroma and body, and they work in most Nespresso Original machines (Citiz, Pixie, Essenza, Lattissima, Creatista and similar). These capsules are not compatible with Nespresso Vertuo machines and Caffè Borbone is an independent brand.

What flavor profile should I expect from Crema Classica?

Crema Classica is a medium roast that balances sweetness and depth without intense bitterness. Expect caramel-like sweetness up front, with subtle chocolate and nutty background notes, and a rounded finish that supports multiple extraction styles.

• Caramelized sweetness on the palate
• Chocolate and toasted nut undertones
• Medium roast body with moderate acidity
• Consistent golden crema layer when brewed correctly

How do these aluminum capsules work with my Nespresso Original machine?

The aluminum capsules are sized for Nespresso Original-style brewers and puncture reliably during the machine’s standard extraction cycle. They are designed to deliver about 5 g of coffee per pod for ristretto, espresso or lungo volumes, depending on your machine settings.

• Fits Citiz, Pixie, Essenza, Lattissima, Creatista and similar Original models
• Not compatible with Nespresso Vertuo machines
• Each pod contains 5 g of pre-measured coffee for repeatable shots
• Sealed aluminum preserves aroma until brewing

What brewing styles are best with these pods?

Crema Classica performs well across ristretto, espresso and lungo extractions. Adjust your machine’s pour volume to emphasize crema or to draw out more flavor and body, and use fresh water at the recommended temperature for optimal extraction.

• Ristretto for concentrated sweetness and crema
• Espresso for balance and full aroma
• Lungo to soften intensity and highlight nutty notes
• Works with milk-based drinks (cappuccino, latte) without overpowering the milk

What are the capsule contents and sourcing details?

Each capsule is filled with a blend of Arabica and Robusta beans selected to create a harmonious medium roast. Beans come from several coffee-growing regions to provide layered flavors and satisfying crema while keeping the blend consistent across batches.

• Blend: premium Arabica plus select Robusta
• Sources: South America, Africa, Asia for complementary flavor notes
• Pack size: 10 boxes x 10 capsules = 100 pods total
• 5 g coffee per sealed capsule to preserve aroma and body

Who is this for? Caffè Borbone Crema Classica aluminum capsules suit home espresso drinkers who use Nespresso Original-style machines and want a reliable, medium-roast pod with sweet, chocolatey and nutty notes. It’s a practical choice for people who value convenience, consistent crema, and a coffee that works well both black and in milk-based drinks. If you need Vertuo compatibility, look for a different format; otherwise this 100-count pack offers a stable supply for daily espresso routines.
