2. LOCK the handle down
3. Move the custom control lever to the red setting (right) for hot beverages and the blue setting (left) for cold beverages.
The beverage then DROPs in your cup. When you're ready to stop the flow (each beverage comes with recommended dosing on its capsule carton):

15 bars of pressure refers to the barometric pressure that builds up inside every smart capsule. 15 bars is like being 500 ft underwater! This pressure is comparable to professional coffee house machines and much greater than most single serve coffee machines on the market.
What does it mean to you? Fifteen bars of pressure means a frothy, coffee house experience on demand, in your home kitchen. It maximizes the flavor and aroma from the coffee. It's how you create the highest-quality coffee drinks for you and all your guests, in less than a minute.
The NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® machine heats water, which is passed at high pressure through a capsule of high quality NESCAFÉ® roast and ground coffee into the cup. This 15 bar system uses pressure similar to coffee house machines. The coffee that is used in the capsules is made of premium 100% Arabica pure coffee beans.
The high pressure and the capsules are designed to deliver an even distribution of water and pressure over the coffee to ensure that flavor is maximized. While traditional drip coffee machines operate at one bar of pressure (normal atmospheric pressure) and a number of other one-cup coffee machines operate at no more than two bars, the NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® system can operate at 15 bars. Each capsule makes one beverage serving in under a minute.
Everybody has a special way they like their beverages - More milk? More coffee?
That's why NESCAFÉ® Dolce Gusto® machines allow you to customize your beverage strength with a custom control lever. We put the power in your hands!
The capsules are created with an exclusive smart capsule technology to give you coffee house quality beverages every time. The airtight capsules optimize extraction pressure for each flavor variety, delivering the best quality, texture and no-hassle froth.
Here's how it works:
1. When a capsule is inserted, a needle punches through the capsule seal. Water enters the capsule and pressure begins to build, pushing the water evenly through the coffee.
2. As the pressure builds to its optimum level to maximize your flavor, the seal at the bottom of the capsule is broken and the coffee begins to flow into your cup
