Review on ☕ CAPMESSO Aluminum Foil Lids for Reusable Vertuoline Capsules Coffee Pods, Compatible with Nespresso VertuoLine Machine, 64mm, 100-Pack by Jared Allred

But it works. best in Coffee Maker Accessories

Well I'd like to start off by saying these things are extremely easy to use and I'll continue to get them on subscription. On average, my Nespresso drinks about 10-12 cups of coffee per week, most of them with foil lids. The first two sets of caps I received were perfect. They worked great, didn't cause any problems with my car and made my life so easy (and cheap!). The fact that I can make quality coffee for 30-50 cents a cup and also how easy it is made me give this 5 stars and I would if I was writing this review a month and a half ago would. .For the last two batches I've received, I felt the difference as soon as I started using the first. The glue didn't hold either, the circle felt a little bigger, the little tab to remove the sticker stuck (maybe a slightly different design or because of the glue, not sure) and it was all just a tad thinner. Did the company want to save money? I can't know From what I understand this may be related to the company they source their materials from. The truth is, it really doesn't matter. While I still recommend them to anyone looking to make their own pods, I was disappointed with the drop in quality. The worst thing for me was that after using the latest batch, the glue stuck to part of the capsule and caused very few problems when using it: the capsule got stuck in the machine for a minute or two (or you would have to use your hand pull out). The bottom line is that when you first buy them you will most likely not notice any of this and you should consider this a 5 star product. Oh, and pro tip: when you put the lid on, fold the tab UP instead of down. This makes it a lot easier to remove the foil when you're done.

  • Compatible Coffee Pods
