Why switch to reusable Nespresso capsules?
- Use any ground coffee: Try local roasters, single-origin beans, or blends to craft the cup you love.
- Save money: Refillable pods dramatically reduce the cost per shot versus factory-sealed capsules.
- Cut waste: Reduce plastic and aluminum trash from single-use capsules.
- Quick & easy: Fill, seal with the included foil lids, and brew — cleanup is simple.

How to use (quick start)
- Make sure your machine is an OriginalLine model (Pixie, Essenza Mini, Citiz, Lattissima, etc.).
- Measure your grind using the scoop included — fine espresso grind works best but avoid ultrafine powder that clogs.
- Fill the capsule, level or lightly tamp (do not overpack), then place the disposable foil lid on top and press to seal.
- Insert the capsule into the machine and brew as you normally would. Dispose of the foil lid and rinse the pod after use.
Tip: Start with a medium-fine grind and adjust for strength and extraction. If crema is light, try slightly finer grind or a bit more coffee.
Cleaning & maintenance
- Rinse pods immediately after use to avoid stuck grounds.
- Occasionally wash with warm soapy water and a small brush to remove oils/residue.
- Do not use in the dishwasher unless the manufacturer specifically allows it — hand washing extends life.
Benefits — environmental and economical
Switching to refillable capsules reduces packaging waste (aluminum and plastic) and offers fast ROI: depending on how often you drink espresso, refillable pods often pay for themselves in a few weeks to months compared to buying single-use capsules.
Common troubleshooting
- Capsule won’t extract / low flow: The coffee might be packed too tightly. Try using slightly less coffee or a coarser grind.
- No crema: Try a finer grind (closer to espresso) or ensure the pod is sealed correctly.
- Leaks: Make sure the foil lid is centered and pressed down. Inspect the capsule for damage.
FAQ

- No. These refillable pods are made for Nespresso OriginalLine machines only and will not work with Vertuo machines.
- Can I use flavored or pre-ground coffee?
- Yes — you can use any ground coffee you prefer, including flavored blends. Freshly ground beans usually produce the best flavor.
- Will the pods harm my machine?
