Nespresso Scuro Lungo is a dark-roasted coffee capsule drink made for a longer coffee extraction. It has a strong coffee character when served black, while milk can soften its intensity. The exact taste depends on the capsule version and preparation.
Brew Nespresso Scuro Lungo in a compatible Nespresso machine using the lungo setting or a longer pour than an espresso. Avoid running an unusually large amount of water through the capsule, as extended extraction can make the coffee taste bitter.
Yes, Nespresso Scuro Lungo contains caffeine. The exact amount can vary with the capsule version and how much coffee is extracted, so people who are sensitive to caffeine may prefer to avoid it close to bedtime.
Yes, Nespresso Scuro Lungo works well with milk. A splash of warm milk or milk foam softens its strong coffee taste; add it after brewing so you can control the texture and keep the coffee-to-milk balance to your liking.
Nespresso Scuro Lungo is brewed with more water than an espresso-style extraction, so it makes a larger cup. The longer extraction also means the coffee remains in contact with water for longer, which can change its taste and strength.
Nespresso Scuro Lungo capsules work only with the Nespresso machine system they were made for. Original and Vertuo capsules are not interchangeable, so match the capsule system stated on the pack to your machine before brewing.
Yes, Nespresso Scuro Lungo can be served over ice. Brew it using a shorter volume, then pour it over a glass filled with ice to limit dilution as the ice melts; add cold milk if you like.
Keep Nespresso Scuro Lungo capsules in their original packaging in a cool, dry place until you use them. Brew an opened capsule promptly rather than leaving the coffee exposed, which can cause it to lose aroma.
Yes, Nespresso Scuro Lungo is suitable as a morning coffee, whether served black or with milk. Its caffeine can feel uncomfortable on an empty stomach for some people, so have it with breakfast if that happens to you.
Yes, the caffeine in Nespresso Scuro Lungo can make it harder to fall asleep or reduce sleep quality, especially for caffeine-sensitive people. If you notice this effect, drink it earlier in the day rather than in the evening.

Nespresso Scuro Lungo is a long coffee prepared from a Nespresso capsule. Served black, it has a pronounced roasted-coffee flavour; adding milk softens the taste and gives it a creamier texture.
It suits a morning coffee or an afternoon break, whether enjoyed on its own or alongside a small biscuit. Across many coffee-drinking cultures, a splash of milk is a familiar addition, though it is also good black. Unsweetened, it is virtually calorie-free; skip syrups and sugar, or use just a little milk, if you want to keep the cup light.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
