I think the concept of Nespresso and the technology is sound, however I still think their coffee roasting profile and grind on a lot of their pods errs towards the lighter spectrum of things compared with third wave roasters. Their espresso tastes like a good classic Europiean espresso, which is much less crema intensive than what third wave cafes strive for and often their consistency is all over the place. I do admit when they get things right they produce some grail espressos, but what Nespresso has going for them is that consistency.
Nah. Nespresso isn't instant coffee. Nespresso is actually decent.
Nescafe is instant though and that tastes like ass.
