Actually, I thought the espresso varieties from Nespresso were better than the lung coffee, but that's also a matter of taste. The yellow capsules (Finezzo Lungo) are more comparable with Lavazza Caffe Crema Dolce (mild, slightly sweetish)

> Red capsules (Decaffeinato Lungo) are also comparable with Lavazza Decaffeinato.

The Vivalto Lungo (level 4) could possibly be compared with Dallmayr Intenso, but I'm rather unsure. I think the Dallmayr is stronger.
I haven't tried the green capsules (Fortissio Lungo) yet - no recommendation.
All in all, the conventional industrial coffee from the fully automatic machine tastes better to me than from the Nespresso - you can also get a large cup. Nespresso is already losing out to a coffee from a private roaster anyway. My wife liked the yellow capsules very much, I was more likely to have the black (espresso) ones. It was amazingly good for a capsule machine.
