good mix strong coffees great price

I am writing this review in respect of Sumatra and Bologna capsules from this range, although I have sampled most of the range in recent months (and enjoyed them all).The coffee is enjoyable and certainly represents excellent value for money, particularly factoring in that it is organic and fairtrade. Like Nespresso's own range, there are coffees of various strengths and flavours, though it may take some experimentation to find your favourite. The flavours are readily discernible and distinctive, from fruity, nutty, all the way to liquoricey... I am no coffee expert but I am happy with these pods.One of the issues that seems to plague 3rd party capsules in general is the fit with the machine. In some cases I have even had the machine stop working due to pressure problems. Thankfully no such problems with realcoffee capsules, which fit tightly and afford the same flow as the original range.however, I am knocking a star off, because they are not *perfect* in this regard - there is still a small amount of water seepage. In fact, I did my best to scientifically measure this, and discovered that there is about 1ml (or just over) produced when using a Sumatra capsule.Now, I have learned from another manufacturer in the past that supposedly "I am part of the problem" because I tend to use the espresso capsules to make a lungo size drink. Well, so be it: but I bought this machine for convenience, not to become a barista ;-) So, I may not be alone in making longer drinks from espresso capsules.So, I measured leakage after one espresso shot, then again after making a lungo size drink (another shot from the same capsule). In fact, most leakage occurred in the first phase of the cycle. See pics.I just keep a small piece of kitchen roll in the base of my capsule tray.

Good coffee at a reasonable price

Fantastic coffee, great mixture and wonderful taste, will be buying more.

The seller missed one type of coffee but sent me something twice. Yet, happy with the quality and taste of the coffee. Happy to reorder.

So just got the pods on subscription for every 6 months and got a further discount on these bad boys.The packaging is pretty impressive was expecting less of a presentation.Tried the Columbia pod and I was so impressed was a smooth medium flavour - 7 in strength which I prefer.I tried MANY pods from LOR which was decent to alternatives from Waitrose which were much more expensive and an utter a waste of money (tried 4 different brands).So far after 4 years of Nespresso coffee drinking this the best alternative to any other I have tried so far.Also the pods cost was only 0.21 per pod and many different flavours to choose from.Thankfully not ultra strong which i absolutely hate.Worth a first try on this alternative coffee pod experience to nespresso originals.I would put it in the similar category to Nespresso in coffee quality taste and packaging presentation.

Said it was compatible I ordered but wasn’t then refused my return
