Choose capsules for Nespresso Original machines

Essenza Mini, Pixie, CitiZ and Lattissima One share the Nespresso Original capsule geometry. Vertuo and Dolce Gusto capsules do not fit.

The decision that matters

The package must explicitly identify Nespresso Original compatibility; a similar-looking capsule is not enough.

Why it suits this machine

The machine’s chamber is built for the Original capsule geometry. Brand, flavour and intensity may vary, but the capsule must explicitly state Original-system compatibility.

Before choosing your coffee

Do Vertuo capsules fit an Original machine?

No. They use a different shape and extraction system and are not interchangeable.
