The BCG System is Milton’s proprietary Brew Chamber Gasket that allows the Line1 to brew every OriginalLine capsule correctly. Nespresso machines rely on a sealing ring built into their own pods, which prevents proper extraction from third-party brands. The BCG System forms a reliable seal on any OriginalLine-style capsule and optimizes pressure, temperature, and timing.

The Line1 uses a full stainless steel brew path (SUS304) from the moment water enters the brew chamber until it exits the spout. This means no plastic contact in the actual brewing process. Upstream components - including the water tank, lines, and seals - use food-safe, BPA-free plastic and silicone materials that meet global safety standards. Contact us for a complete listing of all internal components and their materials.
