With paper-based capsules, sometimes a few drops of water leak into the cup at the beginning of brewing.
Paper capsules do not interact with the machine in the same way as aluminum capsules. It takes slightly longer for the machine to pierce the paper capsule, and sometimes a very small amount of water may flow around the capsule and into the cup. A few water drops should not affect the taste or aroma of your coffee.

An expresso has a stronger aroma than a "normal" coffee.
In fact, an expresso can be distinguished by its rich aroma and the creamy foam on the surface of the cup.
This requires a pressure of 15 bar (achieved only by espresso machines), water heated to 90-92°C and finely ground and measured coffee (7 g per cup).

After preparing your coffee, wait a few moments to allow the capsule to cool and eject it (gently lift the lever) into the capsule bin.
It is recommended to empty the bin when it's full or at least once a day, and to clean it regularly.
We advise you to enjoy your paper-based capsules within four weeks of opening the pouch for the best coffee experience. The shelf-life of an unopened sachet is six months.

On rare occasions, the paper capsule may tear or the membrane detach while brewing coffee, which may cause coffee grounds to leak into your cup.
Although coffee grounds in your cup are harmless, this does not give the best coffee experience and we do not recommend drinking the cup of coffee. We recommend placing a container under the coffee outlet and press the Lungo button (no capsule) to rinse any coffee grounds from the inside of the brewing unit, then brew a new cup of coffee with a new capsule.
