How to drink your I.AM.caps
First things first
The perfect portion size for our caps is 40 ml. Therefore you should always use the SMALL or ESPRESSO button on your Nespresso machine to create the perfect shot.*
Then it's time to get creative!
Capspresso
Strong and full of flavour - the capspresso is perfect to drink hot or cold as a shot of pure goodness. Make sure you use the small or espresso button.
Lungo
For optimal result, please add some boiling water to your shot. If you use the button with the bigger cup the flavour won't be as strong and you might get a watery drink.
Latte Capschiato
Just add your preferred (plant-based) milk to the shot. We think Oatly and I.AM.caps is a match made in heaven. The recommended ratio is 3/4 milk then 1 or 2 shots.
Capsuccino
The perfect Capsuccino is 2/3 milk and 1 shot. We recommend using a milk foamer to create that lovely foamy texture.
Iced latte
If you have a Nespresso Aeroccino, you can use it to create cold foamed milk. Just press and hold the button until it turns blue, instead of red. Easy! This video shows you how it works.

* It's a little known fact, but Nespresso machines can be programmed to your liking.
This means that the amount of water that comes out with the small and big cup buttons are completely adjustable. In fact, different types of Nespresso machines have different factory settings, so the small button can range between 25 and 50ml.
We recommend that you adjust your Nespresso to 40ml. Here is a handy video on how to do that.
Please note: that are 20+ different types of Nespresso machines, they each have instructions videos on Nespresso's Youtube page.
