Frequently Asked Questions
Dolce or Soave: what's the difference between the two mild blends?
Two Modo Mio mild 100% Arabica, for two uses:
- Dolce (this reference, Lungo Dolce by Lavazza) — intensity 6/13, amber roast, smooth, velvety and creamy, fruity notes. Designed for a long cup and suitable for milk.
- Soave — intensity 5/13, amber roast, smooth and light, delicate floral notes. The lightest profile in our espresso selection.
Recommendation: Dolce for a mild long coffee or milk-based drink, Soave for a very light and floral espresso.
Does Dolce have less caffeine than other AMM blends?
No — standard caffeine content (~60-80 mg per cup). The flavor intensity (6/13) measures the aromatic strength and body , not the caffeine. A 100% Arabica blend like Dolce may contain slightly less caffeine than an Arabica-Robusta blend (Robusta contains about twice as much caffeine as Arabica), but the difference is minimal (about 10-15% less). For caffeine-free coffee , choose DEK Cremoso Decaffeinated .
Excellent for a cappuccino, isn't it?
Yes : Lavazza also says it's suitable for preparations with milk, and its smooth, velvety profile blends well with frothed milk without any pronounced bitterness. Recommendation: 1 Dolce capsule + 100-120 mL of whole milk frothed at 65°C in a large cup. For a stronger cappuccino: theIntenso (13/13), which Lavazza says is ideal with milk.
Which A Modo Mio machines are compatible?
machines Modo Mio : Jolie, Jolie&Milk, Voicy, Deséa, Idola, Espria, Piccina, Tiny, Minù + older models (LM910, LM950, LM3100). Not compatible with Blue, Espresso Point, Firma, Nespresso, Dolce Gusto, illy Iperespresso.
How many cups and what is the best before date?
16 espressos per box (1 capsule = 1 cup). For a 2-cup/day household, this lasts approximately 8 days; for a 4-cup/day household, it lasts approximately 4 days. Shelf life: 18-24 months at room temperature, away from light — the fruity notes of Dolce are sensitive to light; a closed cupboard is recommended. See multi-box packs for regular use.
Recyclable aluminum – how?
Yes, 100% recyclable. Three options: (1) Lavazza collection points in partner stores, (2) Lavazza Terracycle program, (3) selective sorting of metal packaging (yellow bin) after separation of the coffee grounds.
