The VertuoLine utilizes modern techniques and specifications to give better performance than the OriginalLine. They have a wider selection of brew sizes like 0.85 ounces of ristretto and 1.35 ounces for double espresso. They also offer a quicker process called centrifusion, which rotates the pods at 7,000 RPM so that more water to pass through for better extraction.
Alongside improving the technology, VertuoLine has also increased the number of capsules that can be reused and introduced an environmentally friendly packaging system.

Vertuoline machines utilize an entirely different pod system from the OriginalLine line.

This eliminates the necessity for separate milk containers and makes it much simpler to make the perfect cup of espresso or Coffee Machine Maker.
Vertuoline machines are better in terms of quality. They produce crema that resembles the dense foam found at a coffee shop, as opposed to the lighter Crema produced by the OriginalLine machines. However, the OriginalLine machines offer the best taste because they produce 19 bars of pressure to better extract flavor from espresso grounds.
The newer VertuoLine machine utilizes a technique called Centrifusion, which rotates the capsules faster and more equally than the Original Line machine. This increases the speed of the infusion of water and improves the quality of the beverage. It also allows the Vertuoline machines to use lower temperatures, which reduces extraction time and increases the strength of the espresso.
