CAPMESSO Reusable Nespresso OriginalLine Capsules: 2 Stainless Steel Pods

These reusable capsules have been a great addition to my daily coffee routine. The amount of money I save compared to constantly buying disposable pods really adds up, especially if you drink coffee every day. They fit perfectly in my Nespresso OriginalLine machine and feel sturdy and well made thanks to the stainless steel design. What I love most is the flexibility to choose my own coffee. It really makes a difference in both flavor and freshness. I do recommend investing in a good quality coffee because that’s what truly brings out the best results with these capsules. They’re easy to use once you get the hang of filling and sealing them, and the included lids are a nice bonus. Overall, these are a smart, eco friendly option that delivers great coffee while saving money in the long run.

I got these several weeks ago and I wanted to try them out repeatedly before doing a review on them. I generally don't review items but I really relied upon them for these capsules and I wanted to offer one for someone doing their research as well. I bought these for our Nespresso DeLonghi Lattissima Pro- mostly because the features of the machine were perfect for what I wanted but I wasn't a fan of the one time use capsules. Enter these reusable capsules. I purchased 5 2-packs of these because I work 12 hour shifts and I don't have the time to always refill my capsules. Having 10 on hand is much easier and well worth the expense. I ordered my favorite espresso beans (Lavazza Super Crema) and spent about 2 hours perfecting my grind (you want a fine to medium fine grind using a burr grinder) and tamping (lightly tamp the coffee, do not pack the grounds). By round 6 of testing, my ground espresso was almost identical to a Lavazza one time use Nespresso capsule- I compared color, taste, and even crema to make sure I was doing it right. I read several reviews with the following issues: 1. Several said that the capsule was noticeably smaller than a Nespresso plastic capsule. The box of the item explains why- so it doesn't damage the metal capsule or the machine. It's pretty common sense but again, the box explains it. 2. Several reviews said their coffee was weaker or they had grinds in their coffee post-brew. You have to leave a tiny bit of room for your seal ring and make sure it's not pressed all the way into the ground coffee prior to putting the foil seal on. Also, do not pack the grounds in and don't make them so super fine or super coarse. Experiment with your beans. It's worth 6-10 shots of practice to know what you're doing. 3. This is not a cut and dry, grab a pod and go system. You do have to grind your own beans, seal them, clean them, etc. If you don't like that, don't buy it. It's worth it in the long run. The taste isn't 100% like a Nespresso pod but after using these daily since I bought them on May 29th, I've said an obscene amount of money vs. buying out and the taste is so much better than Starbucks and my other go tos. I absolutely love these little capsules. I may purchase more in the future but if you're looking for a quality way to save money, help with environmental impact and more, you won't be sorry purchasing these. Just have patience if you haven't done it before and do your research so you don't blame the product without any prior experience.

This product is extremely easy to use. Of course make sure you have the right grind of coffee so that it works correctly. Flavor most the time is great, every so often though I will manage to have a watery shot due to the cover not stay on as strongly as I would hope. If you are wanting to use your own beans, or just don't want to constantly create more waste than necessary, I definitely recommend this product.

I was a bit skeptical before buying this item because there were no reviews, and those reviews on similar items are very mixed opinions. Hence the reason why I'm taking my time to write this review and include a video. What really got me to buy from this seller was the price and that it includes 2 reusable pods instead of just 1. I will start by saying that i was a bit disappointed at first because as other reviews in other products, the aluminum lids were not being punctured correctly. I even punctured holes with a knife but still wasn't getting the espresso coffee i was seeking. So after trying it a few times with a "Medium Ground Coffee", I transferred the coffee from an original Nespresso capsule to this one and it worked like it should. That's when I realized the problem most people might have is with the coffee and not the reusable pods. (I was using a Colombian medium ground for american coffee) Then I went ahead and bought the coffee us cubans use for our cuban coffee, in my case I got Café Bustelo but you can also use La Llave or any other Espresso or fine ground coffee. It's been working great ever since. So please, before leaving a negative review or returning the item, i suggest you tried a different type of coffee. I do believe this is the best option to stop so much waste using a new Nespresso capsule every time. I still got some Nespresso capsules for those days we get people visiting and i need to make more than 2 coffees. I am not been paid for this review nor did i get the item for free, although I wish i had. I'm just someone leaving an honest review for those of you who might find it useful.

I got this so that we could stop wasting so much with offbrand plastic ones and even original or Starbucks which can be recycled. (Still have to ship those back). First, not as easy to fill as I had hoped. Having to line up a rubber thing on top and then the sticker to hold it all together. That wasn’t fun. Then it just falls through half the time. So you have to slightly close the lever so it stops in place. Then to shut it and use it…I thought I was going to break my machine. I have 4 machines. One is offbrand. It was impossible to shut all of them. This sucked. Waste of money. Skip it. Don’t break your machine (or worry you are going to).

I liked that these were easy to refill and the stickers were good quality. They came off cleanly after the pods were cool. I was even able to reuse some disposable pods. The reusable pods slip right through the top Into the used pod spot. They work great when you can get them into the proper position. I prefer to just reuse the disposables with the included stickers. The pods make good crema on the top the espresso. I find packing it a bit tighter makes better crema

I'd been looking at purchasing a reusable capsule for my Nespresso machine for a while now, largely to reduce the volume of plastic waste I was generating and the amount of microplastics I was consuming as part of my daily caffeine addiction. I was a little reluctant at first to do so because of the bad reviews I'd seen on similar products but the good reviews for the CAPMESSO reusable espresso pods convinced me to go out on a limb. There was admitted a little bit of a learning curve, figuring out the right grind, amount, and tamping of the coffee to brew the perfect cup with an ideal crema. Definitely follow the directions that the manufacturer provides as a starting point, but you will likely need to experiment a bit. That said, by my fourth or fifth attempt I was getting a pour that was as good as any I've gotten with brand name Nespresso pods. Indeed, it rivals the quality of espresso that you can get in Italy but without the mountains of plastic waste. Definitely worth the purchase in terms of the quality of the product, the quality of the coffee, and the environmental and financial savings associated with a reusable coffee pod.

It’s didn’t fit in my Nepresso D300 machine since couldn’t lock on the capsule brew chamber thing. When I looked at a used pod the center hole was about 5x’s larger. So the needle could not fit into this metal pod, being that the center hole was too small. I solved this problem using a Dremel with a very small drill attachment to enlarge the hole. The I used the same Dremel with a tiny file attachment to smooth down the hole. Took less than 5 minutes ( keep in foam while drilling so it doesn’t move around). Now I have a stainless steel reusable pod that works perfectly in my machine.

Used few times. If yo want to save money or drink your favourite coffee then you are set.

I`m happy that I ordered it as now I can drink my favorite coffee, not the one which they out in other pods. The process is quick when u make a habit and it worth it. The water is coming a bit more slow than in one time use pods but it`s fine. I was trying to press the coffee inside more and less and realized that it should not be pressed to hard than it works better. I will buy more such to have them ready and just to use.

I bought these on Amazon to use in my combo Nespresso/Keurig machine and I am NOT disappointed! They're easy to use, the instructions are good, particularly the grind recommendation for coffee beans. I normally buy Lavazza pods and thought I might buy the coffee to use in these, but I have a bag from an upscale coffee shop at the mall where I work. I tried them in the Keurig pods but didn't like it much. However they're perfect in the Capmesso pods! Now I get to enjoy this amazing coffee the way it was meant to be. The pods are also easy to retrieve and to clean; the lids come off very easily even after perforation by my brewer. I love these and will definitely be buying more lids to keep using them. Instead of spending $0.60 per pod I'm down to about $0.02 per cup of espresso and that's after buying the 2lb bag! Do yourself a favour and save your coffee money!

Fonctionne bien avec ma machine nespresso, la pellicule est parfois difficile à enlever, la colle reste sur le pod
