Café Agga - 80 OriginalLine Pods Coffee Variety Pack - 8 x10 Espresso Capsules: Intenso, Fortissimo, Lungo, Organico, Cremoso, Ristretto, Dolce Vita & Kenya AA - Compatible with all OriginalLine Machines

I have no issues at all with these coffee capsules. There was only one review when I ordered them and it was not so great but I decided to find out for myself. Granted, the capsules are soft plastic but as long as you use care when using them, there is no problem. A nice variety of flavors. I do wish the name of the coffee was actually on the capsule but that is because I threw them all in a drawer and got rid of the boxes. I had one that the foil top was not centered and coffee was all over the box but it was one out of 80 so no biggie. Overall, I am very satisfied with the price, variety, and flavor. A good deal.

I bought these for my wife for Christmas and they are no where near the taste quality of the Nespresso branded pods. These are quite weak, resulting in watery, flavorless morning espresso. We found that if you brewed 2 each on the small size, it was almost as flavorful as 1 Nespresso brand on the large size. These aren't worth the money and we won't be buying these off brand pods again.

I write this with mixed feelings. The coffee itself is wonderful. The reason for less than 5 stars is due to the performance of the physical pod itself. I had several pods not cooperate, and they were crushed instead of properly punctured to allow the water to flow through, so they were unusable. I tried to be careful with them, but I ended up wasting several, which decreases the overall value. That said, they are less expensive than the competitor, and very, very good, so I would still purchase them again, and continue to try to figure out how to make them work each time.

This coffee pod is too hard to press onto my machine (Lattissima Touch Coffee and Espresso Machine by De’Longhi). I tried for 2 times and then decided not to use this pod anymore, as I was afraid my machine would be damaged. I called Amazon to report the issue, and received a full refund right away. But I want to let potential buyers to become aware of the fact that this pod may not fit into all Nespresso machines.Other than the pod itself being too hard to press into my machine, I would give 7 out of 10 for its taste. It is rather an acceptable, but averaged taste.

Wow! I am no longer a Nespresso gal!I would usually pay about $60 (or more) from Nespresso for the same quantity of coffee... when Cafe Agga cost me less than $30. I wasn't sure what to expect but I'm super surprised at how creamy and flavorful it is. There is definitely no compromise on quality. Currently, my favorite capsule from Cafe Agga is Kenya AA, but I love Lungo for a mid-day espresso.I used to order my Nespresso coffee every few months and would drink only their espresso... not anymore!

...but these capsules have a high failure rate compared to the "real" metal capsules--a fair number of these get crunched-up or don't puncture correctly while loading. I don't know whether it's because the capsules are plastic or it's something unique to coffee maker, but it's messy/pricey because of the failures.

The variety is superb. Especially if your someone who likes having different coffees. The tasted are very distinctive!!

Some leaking coffee grounds all over before we even opened the package! Then one with the top did work, but coffee tasted burnt. The next pod clogged did not work and clogged up my nespresso machine! Hopefully I can get that cleaned out! If not I will send them the bill for a new machine.

I very much loved all of the flavors offered in this variety pack. The quality and value is great. Highly recommended.

Ever since I bought my Nespresso machine, I have tried virtually every coffee pod brand available. Simply, Nespesso's pods didn't impress me and they seem overpriced for what you get. I used to live in Italy for quite some time, so I have gotten used to their wonderful and fresh espressos. Lavazza and Kimbo were my staple, but if I bought them in Europe. NOTHING compares to them for me. But in the pods here...well, they are very underwhelming.I know Lavazza has its own pod machine and pods, but it is only sold in Europe. These are DELICIOUS - like heaven from above landed in your cup. But again, that machine with its pods are not available here in North America. So Nespresso is the next best thing.Going back to the Lavazza and Kimbo pods for Nespresso machine - just...not what Lavazza and Kimbo are! I don't know why this is the case, but I was getting very dicouraged that I would find something that would satisfy my European-coffee-addicted taste buds. I even considered selling my Nespresso because I grew tired of spending money on different brands and not finidng what I like. UNTIL!! Until AGGA!Sweet heavens, thank you for coming back to me! AGGA's coffee pods are NOT European (Montreal, QC), but they TASTE AS CLOSE TO EUROPE FOR ME. They were the last brand I gave a go and I had sworn I was selling my Nespresso. But the moment I had one cup, I melted into joy. All the types of pods are just delicious: even the most intense ones have a sweet and soft touch, meaning you are getting all the pump without having to pour all of your creamer into the cup to pretend that this is good, while your throat kisses any healthy moisture goodbye. In other words, AGGA is it for me. Take it from a gal that takes her coffee as seriously as her job that depends on it (I work looong hours). The different intensities of the pods don't change the taste, but allow you to enjoy any strength, depending what your day has a store in you.Final note: ANY PERSON - from diluted Americano lovers to caffeine junkies - whom I have made a cup of AGGA have reacted with, "Wow! This coffee is so good!" after the first sip. ANY! I swear! I still am getting surprised with these reactions because that means that AGGA really hits the spot for different taste buds.Anyway, I am NOT getting any benefits for writing this review. I just had to share because I know the struggle of looking for the perfect cup of coffee. I hope my review is helpful and...cheers to you, lovely coffee-lover soulmate. :)

I bought this pack, near the end of isolation due to COVID with a *Nespresso that was the only coffee machine in the house. Where I live, going to a store was not an option since they were closed. This is a good replacement. It’s definitely less expensive. While it is taste, I actually prefer these roasts to the original. As for suitability to the machine, I was a bit concerned after reading reviews on alternatives. I have food that you have to be a bit more careful than the original pods. Materials of construction are different (and unfortunately not recycle able). I have found that if you ease the pod in when loading (use your finger to insure that it slips into the hole in the machine) there is no problem. The volume is exactly the same. If you load the *Agga haphazardly, yes, it can be a bit messy: basically the pod will leak into the catchment and you will lose part of your cup of coffee. I’ll likely stick with this package after COVID, hopefully I can order the coffees that I like.

I did not want to pay 1$ for each coffee I drank, sometimes 2$ if I use 2 pods.There is crema, the taste is right and rich. I haven't found one variety that I did not like. I would've appreciated the pack to come with decaf, but does not affect how happy I am with this brand of coffee pods.My only true disappointment is with the plastic the pods are made of: it makes them harder to recycle, and my earth-loving heart takes the punch. You'll tell me "well, buy another brand!", but I'd be missing a very good deal for my wallet and tastebuds... Sorry, eco-friends!

My son is obsessed with espresso, drinking sometimes up to three a day. He says these are very good!
