A Modo Mio Capsules
A Modo Mio capsules: matching the blend to your taste
Once an A Modo Mio machine sits on your counter, the harder decision is already behind you. The system is fixed, so the only thing left to settle is the blend. Every capsule in this range holds up to 7.5 grams of ground coffee, sealed so the aromas stay at their best until extraction, and releases a measured dose that gives the same result cup after cup. Packs hold 16 capsules, room enough to test a blend or stay with a familiar one. What matters now is flavour: the A Modo Mio line ranges from gentle, fruity Arabica blends to full-bodied combinations of Arabica and Robusta, with intensity ratings from 6 to 13 on a dedicated scale.
Choosing A Modo Mio capsules by blend, intensity and roast
Three things shape the choice. Blend composition comes first: a pure Arabica gives a lighter, more aromatic cup with floral and fruity notes, whereas Robusta adds body, builds a thicker crema and pushes the flavour towards chocolate and spice. Next is the intensity rating on each pack, set on a scale specific to the Lavazza range, where lower numbers mark gentler, more delicate profiles and higher numbers point to fuller, more persistent blends. The roast level, also stated on every box, completes the picture: a medium roast leans towards balance and sweetness, while a dark roast brings deeper, more pronounced character. The aromatic notes printed on the packaging, from chocolate to floral, hint at what waits in the cup. All blends are built for espresso extraction, though several hold up well as a longer drink or with milk.
Across the A Modo Mio range, blend by blend
A Modo Mio capsules for the everyday espresso
For a daily cup that keeps body and drinkability in step, Qualità Rossa brings Brazilian Arabica together with African Robusta in a full, balanced espresso marked by chocolate notes. Where a pure Arabica is preferred, Delizioso offers a medium roast with floral aromatics and a sweet aftertaste, and Qualità Oro delivers a 100% Arabica profile, medium roasted, with delicate floral and fruity notes.
A Modo Mio capsules for an intense, full-bodied espresso
When strength and character lead, Crema e Gusto joins Brazilian Arabica with African and Asian Robusta for a full-bodied, aromatic espresso carrying chocolatey, gently spiced notes. Passionale, a dark-roasted Arabica blend, builds intensity through caramel and chocolate. At the top of the scale sits Intenso, its Arabica and Robusta blend showing cocoa and spice in an espresso of marked persistence.
A Modo Mio capsules for a long coffee or a lower-caffeine cup
For a longer drink, Lungo Dolce is blended with the larger extraction in mind: a 100% Arabica with fruity notes that holds its character in a bigger mug and works well with milk. And for anyone looking to limit caffeine without dropping the habit, Decaf is an Arabica blend with reduced caffeine that keeps the aromatic profile of the range, an espresso suited to the afternoon or evening.
Frequently asked questions about A Modo Mio capsules
Do A Modo Mio capsules work in Nespresso* machines?
No. A Modo Mio capsules are made for Lavazza A Modo Mio machines and do not fit other capsule systems, since the two formats differ physically and are not interchangeable. For a different system, Lavazza produces a separate line of aluminium capsules compatible with Nespresso* Original machines.
How much coffee does each A Modo Mio capsule contain?
Each capsule holds a minimum of 7.5 grams of ground coffee, the sweet spot for a classic espresso, sealed inside to keep the aromas of the blend at their best. Some blends, such as Lungo Dolce, hold a larger dose for a longer extraction. The grind is calibrated for the extraction system of A Modo Mio machines.
What does the intensity number on the pack mean?
Set on a scale specific to the Lavazza range, the intensity rating reflects the body and aromatic persistence of each blend. Lower numbers indicate a gentler, more delicate profile, while higher numbers correspond to a fuller, more pronounced espresso. It serves as a guide for comparing blends rather than a measure of quality.
How many capsules are in a pack?
Every capsule in this A Modo Mio range comes in a standard pack of 16. The size suits trying a new blend or keeping a steady supply of a preferred one. You can also set up regular deliveries through the Lavazza coffee subscription service, so your preferred blends arrive automatically.
Is there a decaffeinated A Modo Mio capsule?
Yes. The range includes Decaf, an Arabica blend with reduced caffeine that holds onto the aromatic character of the other blends in the line. Under European regulations, decaffeinated coffee is classified as a product with reduced caffeine content, since it retains trace amounts.
Which A Modo Mio capsules work best with milk?
Several blends in the A Modo Mio range take well to milk-based preparations. Lungo Dolce, with its fruity notes and formulation for a longer extraction, sits comfortably in cappuccinos and lattes, while fuller blends such as Qualità Rossa and Crema e Gusto keep their character beneath steamed milk.
