Are these the most intense Vertuo pods?

Double Espresso Scuro, with an intensity of 11, is among the highest, surpassed only by Diavolitto (intensity 11 in 40ml). Chiaro has an intensity of 8, considered high.

Will these capsules work in my L'OR Barista machine, which makes double espressos?

No, these capsules are exclusive to the Nespresso Vertuo system. They are not compatible with any other system, including Nespresso Original or L'OR.

Which of the two is better for a cappuccino?

Both are excellent. If you prefer the coffee flavor to dominate the milk, choose Scuro. If you're looking for a more balanced and smooth cappuccino, Chiaro is the perfect choice.
