    You would be better off looking at the Nespresso site but they are expensive but excellent delivery,I've just binned my Nespresso machine as I've fallen out with all the supermarket and cheap shops versions of the pods and I'm back on grinding beans and cleaning the cafetière out which I absolutely hate doing.

    An Americano is simply an espresso with added hot water.

    Trying out different espresso pods until you ind the one that tastes like Costa is the only suggestion I would make.

    Go to an actual Nespresso shop and have lots of tasters. You might even get a hint from the sales team as to the style that's closest. I like Volluto perosnally but different blends for different circumstances/times of the day.
    I need to think of something new here...

    If you know what bean variety Costa use you'll be better able to narrow down what Nespresso pod will be to your liking.

    Also to add, the customer service agents at Nespresso are pretty good so could give them a call if a Nespresso store or stockist is not nearby.
