Bicafe capsules system-paixao (passion in Portuguese). Features: balanced and creamy. Intensity Grade: 8. Balanced and velvety, paixao achieves the perfect balance between strength, density, body and smoothness. The caramel and woody hints that remain on the palate after the tasting, are the delicate finishing touch that makes all those who taste this coffee fall in love with it, thus the passion. Now you can enjoy the amazing taste of real fresh European espresso in the capsule form that's easy to use. Available in four varieties to satisfy your mood, taste and flavor-intenso, alma, paixio and descafeinado. Each capsule is individually packed in an air-tight package that has a shelf life of up to 18 months. Other capsules are packed 10 units to a foil which means when you open the bag, unless you use the capsules immediately, they will be contaminated and likely lost their freshness within 2 days. Thus we insure the maximum freshness from the time you open your first capsule in the box of 50 until your last capsule. Our capsules have on average 5.8gm of coffee vs. competition who has approximately 4.95gm of coffee. This is a difference of approximately 15-percent. Bicafe coffees have a soft roasting process and our products never taste burnt or bitter. Specially selected and prepared for your enjoyment-taste the elegance of Bicafe today and experience the real taste of European espresso.

Not as Great as Official Nespresso
I bought a Nespresso U machine about 3 months ago so I have been wary of trying any brands of coffee that supposedly fit in any Nespresso machine. The new machines, the U in particular, have some type of sensor in them which will promptly smash any capsule that does not fit perfectly, or if you try to reuse a re-filled nespresso capsule. Happily, this does not happen with Bicafe capsules! There does seem to be an issue with the seal on the capsule, as the end is not perforated by the machine (making those small holes where the espresso exits). Bicafe explains that this is to make a more even espresso or something. What it does lead to is an espresso which has a decent crema with a pleasant flavor but seems to be more watery than regular Nespresso capsules, which are always very rich. If I paid $20 for 50 capsules, I would give this 4 stars as the price fits the quality. However, these are only marginally less expensive than buying 50 Nespresso capusles, I think $5 less with Prime two-day. So, would I buy them again? Not for $30.00 but at $15 or $20 I would consider.Tip: Use them on the Lungo setting and it makes a decent cup of coffee

Does not work well
My wife ordered this for me and I have been dissatisfied with the products function in my Nespresso Machine. Did not fill cup to desired level and at one point just stopped pouring. It seems as though their was to much pressure build up. Can't use the remaining 40 capsules.

DOES NOT WORK IN PIXIE
I had high hopes for these capsules but when I used it in my Nespresso Pixie my coffee makes make a VERY loud noise. It took a while for the coffee to start to drip and by that time it had backed up!

Capsules work just fine in the Citiz
Capsules work just fine in the Citiz, but the coffee tastes like absolute swill water. I hate this and am now stuck with 49 undrinkable bulky pods.

Great coffee
This coffee is one of the best coffees that I have ever had! It is strong and full of flavor. I have never gone bad with a Portuguese coffee.
