Price history

A line spans only dates on which the listing kept being seen, gaps mean continuity is not established, and dashed stretches are periods observed out of stock.
Converted to $ at the reference rate of each observation's own date, so every market is what it would have cost you on the day it was read.
Hover a line or a market name to read it; press one to keep it lit, and press again to release. Several can be held at once.

About this coffee
Origin
In 2017, Puerto Rico lost nearly 80% of its coffee to hurricanes. But even before the natural disasters, the industry needed help. Nespresso's
REVIVING ORIGINS program joins independent farmers to replant the land and reclaim their future. It'll take years to restore the crop, but Puerto Rican is worth the wait. After all, they once called this the coffee of royalty.
Roasting
The first - with the biggest amount of coffee - to a dark degree to develop dark cocoa notes and the second to a lighter degree.

What cup size is Cafecito de Puerto Rico brewed at?
Storefronts list Cafecito de Puerto Rico at Double Espresso (80 ml).
Can Cafecito de Puerto Rico be brewed shorter and stronger for a milk drink?
On Vertuo machines with Coffee Creations the same capsule brews a shorter, stronger cup, intended as the base for iced and milk drinks. It is an extra mode, not the only one these machines have: a normal cup is still one press. On Vertuo Next, Pop, Pop+, Lattissima and Creatista you turn it on by pressing the coffee button twice — it blinks turquoise, the mode applies to that cup only, and the machine goes back to brewing normally afterwards; Vertuo Up has a dedicated Coffee Creations button, and there the mode stays on until the machine is switched off. The size steps down one place: an Espresso capsule brews as a Ristretto (25 ml), Double Espresso and Gran Lungo brew as an Espresso (40 ml), and a Mug capsule brews as a Double Espresso (80 ml). The machine refuses the mode for Ristretto, Cold Brew Style and Carafe capsules — the mode switches off again and the barcode size is brewed — and Nespresso does not recommend it for Alto or the Coffee+ range. In the rare case that the double press does nothing, try updating the machine’s firmware from the Nespresso app. Older Vertuo models, including Vertuo Plus, brew only the size written in the barcode.
