The difference is that the Vertuo capsules vary in size for different brews, while the original pods are just made for a single shot of espresso.
There are also original pods that are made for the machine I have (an original pod machine), but the capsules (notice the vernacular change) are intended for the newer Vertuo machines. While there are third-party capsules, Nespresso capsules are high-quality espresso and coffee. There are simple espresso machines branded or in partnership with Nespresso, as well as complex total barista-style machines with similar partnerships. There are a lot of machines like that-so it can get a bit confusing. I have the classic De’Longhi EN80B espresso machine, which is Nespresso-branded and is of the original line. The Vertuo is one of the most popular and frequently used Nespresso machines and is made in partnership with Breville and Nespresso-branded. Nespresso is a completely different beast when it comes to coffee machines. So selection and speed are the selling points of the Keurig. Additionally, you can buy pods that you can fill yourself, or select from over 75 brands and 400 varieties.
Quick on-the-go or in-the-office coffee service with the pop of a pod and the press of a button. There are a couple really nice things about a Keurig however. That might be what you want, but it’s a disservice to the coffee. Yes, you get a cup of coffee, but consistency and flavor vary based on the button you press. I’m sure many Keurig loyalists and the company would disagree with me, but the same amount of coffee cannot possibly be used accurately to brew four different sizes of cup, much less a travel mug that does fit in this thing. But it’s difficult to get a perfect brew. I’ve used them, owned one, and the coffee is fine. That’s my biggest issue with the Keurig machines. The K-Select claims to have a “strong brew” feature that amps up the strength and intensity of the brew, but if you are using a single pod for a 12-ounce cup of coffee, you’ve negated that feature. Regardless, you can get a cup of coffee in mere moments, without having to wait for the drip brew machine to finish. There are countless brands of compatible K-Cups, offering different roasts and flavors of coffee that are generally washed out by shoving water through a filter in a pod via two holes poked in either end of the pod. It’s just a device for people who consume coffee as a functional caffeine delivery system, not for people who truly enjoy coffee. That’s not to say that it doesn’t serve that purpose well, it does. You probably have a Keurig machine in the office, which says all you need to know about the Keurig. The K-Select is the most common one found in kitchens across the country. There is a wide selection of Keurig machines, all with one thing in common-they use pods to make coffee.
