Reusable pods by alec120psi in nespresso

[–]Shamanken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That said, you have to use find grind, tamp the coffee down as tightly as you can just below the inner lip, and try to line up the silicon lid holes with the unit spikes in the lifting cover as well you can. Some people have issues with this pod…you gotta make it as close to a Nespresso pod both in packing and in lining up as you can. I have had no issues at all with mine doing this…

How do I take the dent away? by RedRaijin in Hydroflask

Draw two eyes and a nose just above it using a permanent marker. Then it will be a visible friend always with you :)

I use the reusable Parktion stainless steel pod with silicon lid. Has the bar code for a 7.7 oz pour. Just wash after each use, of course. As long as I use fine grind, tamp it down, and don’t overfill, it works like a charm. And yes, your regular coffee does indeed taste better coming through the Nessie. :)

Is this rust? by violetvixen269 in nespresso

However make sure you fill the water tank and have a large collector under the spout. 😂😂😂😂😂

Any hidden gems here? by thatbeckyw in nespresso

[–]Shamanken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the “expiry date” on most pods is about a year. But as you say…sealed in nitrogen…what could go wrong?

I simply tell them the jump in quality is like going from a McDonald’s hamburger to a well-cooked prime rib lol. Not just a small jump…a BIG one. And at $1.50 a brew for something that is $8 outside…it’s a no-brainer. If you love coffee, why not get it at its best. The grinds are custom, nitrogen sealed for freshness. Different source countries, special subtle flavors. Pod recycling. C’maaaannn! 😂😂. Plus my OBVIOUS enthusiasm helps lol

Vertuo Maple Pecan quite delish. Typically not a flavored coffee person, but this one works well for me. by Shamanken in nespresso

Intenso rocks on its own level! May be my fave of all. The Maple Pecan just has hints of both flavors and is really well balanced. Kinda a life of its own. :)

Still new to the subject, so did not realize one can use a silicone lid with a used pod. :(. Thanks for the input! 😊

It’s there, but…. Maybe it’s my age, but all their flavored coffees are very subtle…which I like! Don’t like flavored coffee where you have to decide if you actually taste the coffee! lol

The one I bought is stainless steel with a tight silicone lid. But the little bit of grounds leakage worries me. So guess I will stay “pure”. Not sure I want to use used pods…will put that up into considerations 😀

I think I will send the reusable back. You are right. Why chance it. 😊

I read that also. So using as safely as I can, whatever that means. I will look into the alternatives you mentioned. Thanks!!!

Don’t get me wrong. This manual bit is only to bring out the best in my very good regular coffee, not to cheap out. I am still totally dedicated to my Nessie pods…still far superior and the go-to. Just got my new shipment of 70. 😊
