Review on CAPMESSO Reusable Coffee Capsules: Refillable Originalline Pod, Compatible With Nespresso OriginalLine Machines (Upgraded Creamy Version - 3 Pod Set) by Brian Barnes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Worth it to not spend $90 every two months on pods.

These are nifty little reusable pods. They fit in my Nespresso Pixie machine. Getting a good shot took some trouble-shooting between choosing a grind size (fine, but not extra fine; otherwise, too much pressure builds in the machine and no coffee gets brewed. And you might break your machine) and how much to fill and tamp the pods (fill with loose grounds to the rim of the pod; let the weight of the tamper compress the grounds but don’t press down). As long as you have good coffee and a good grinder and some patience, these work fine. You’re not getting cafe-quality espresso, but you don’t get that with a Nespresso machine anyway. Also a great selling point: you get decent crema with NO DISPOSABLE FOIL CAPS. Perfectly satisfied.
