Reusable Pods Kit for Nespresso Vertuo, Refillable Coffee Pods with 100pcs Aluminum Covers Foil Seals Lids for VertuoLine Capsules, Compatible for VertuoPlus Espresso Machine (Pods not included)

Excellent product! Beautifully simple and intuitive design Pros: Major cost savings, easy to use, can customize coffee. Cons: time intensive (each cup takes about 70-90 secs, plus time to wash pods, grind beans, etc.) NOTE: seal the foil with very strong pressure to avoid issues After over 50 uses with no issues, I'm confident that this works perfectly if you use it right. The original pod's foil must be cut off perfectly - easy if you guide the blade with your thumb and forefinger. The pod's rim must be cleaned thoroughly, dried completely, and entirely free of coffee ground dust - the replacement foils may leave a sticky residue, and if this isn't cleaned off it will collect coffee dust that in turn damages the seal and causes leaking. My biggest tip: apply very strong pressure when tamping down the foil seal. Light pressure leads to a poor seal, which causes the leaking issues some reviewers report. When strong pressure is applied, the foil seal wraps around the lip of the pod and effectively seals it to prevent leaking.

These help me cut down on the cost of my daily addiction to Nepresso Vertuoline capsules. And recycle the aluminum pods. Buy good quality coffee, grind to a espresso level grind and save yourself a lot of money! It's easy to do and not very messy at all. I've recycled my pods at least 50 times each so far. The sealing process works fine with the device you get in the main package of these. These are just the aluminum foil covers!

Easy to use, saves a lot of money, works great. On my 2nd refill cover package. Bought the entire kit the first time. Using ground coffee which makes this simple to do. Yes, I have ground my own coffee to also fill the pods and that works, too, but is more work. Out of the 100 covers, maybe the refilled pods didn't work 2 out of 100. This is a real money saver over pre-filled pods. I usually fill for a couple of weeks at a time.

I spend a ton on Nespresso Pods and have for the decade that I've owned my machine. I've wanted to dabble in reusing my own pods but never felt comfortable with the systems that were around before. This is the first one I've seen in a while that looks relatively straightforward and uses the pod capsules I already have. Process This is a multistep process and definitely the part you need to look at to see if this is for you: 1. First step is to use the provided knife to cut open the pod itself, you'll then need to dump the used (probably moldy) coffee grounds. 2. You then need to was and dry all the pods (unless you're fine with the mold). 3. Place the pod into the actual canister and use the spoon to fill the pod with new coffee grounds. 4. Use the supplied brush to clean off the top of the pod. 5. Place the new aluminum lid on top of the pod and press the canister lid down with a twist to secure it. 6. Remove the pod and crimp the edges of the aluminum lid down. Its a lot of steps and my immediate thought was whether this was a good use of my time. This has notes of the artistic appreciation of coffee preparation, but if you're into that, you're likely not using a coffee pod machine in the first place. The quality of everything feels nice and its a solidly built tool with accessories that all do their exact job without much fuss. There is a level of messiness that comes into play when filling the pods with new grounds with little bits spilling here and there, nothing crazy and thats totally dependent on the space and how you're interacting with those grounds. Overall I recommend it as something to have access to, particularly if you've been craving a different brand of coffee or if you're inbetween orders and just need a few pods (my primary uses). I would like to see some improvements in future iterations of this like having the lid screw down to a tight pack instead of just twisting with only your pressure to tighten things down. It would be good to have the tolerance on the lid guides dialed in and raised up. As they are now, its not full proof and any amount of attention you could free from this process makes it that much more usable.

I was very skeptical about this product because the price was very good and to buy these already made is very expensive. Ground expresso is reasonably priced so to make these pods you can save a lot of money. One thing to remember is you will need old used pods to work with. This kit does not come with the tin cup to place the coffee into. You must use previously used ones. Wash them out good and dry them real good. Follow the instructions and you will find its super easy to make these pods yourself. After you have a cleaned out tin cup, put the coffee espresso grinds in the cup pat them down, put them in the container, brush off any grinds on the edge, place the sticky label that comes with the kit over the cup, put the lid on and twist applying pressure at the same time. I found it helpful after the cup has been pressed to make sure the edges are curled under as you can see in the picture. This helps keep the foil top on securely. The taste is amazing and tastes just like the ones store bought for a fraction of the price. I also add a little bit of cinnamon powder in the bottom of the cup before putting the espresso grinds in for a touch of added flavor.

Ive refilled multiple pods and every one has worked flawlessly. Ive even had a few that I did not get aligned well and thought the seal might lift during brewing. They still held and brewed a perfect cup. The adhesive is strong and holds a seal. The thickness feels thinner than whats originally on the pods but non have punctured or torn. The size is perfect just enough overhang that it leaves room for error on my part but not so much it obscures the barcode. Im extremely satisfied with this brand of products.

Very useful and easy to use. The pods fit well and are simple to clean. Coffee tastes great, and it helps save money by using your own coffee. Good quality for the price. I’m happy with this purchase.

Using old pods was never easier. Great way to cut the cost of Nespresso pods

Very impressed with this product. Super easy to use. I had my coffee beans ground for espresso. Made just as good a coffee as pods I buy from Nespresso.

This product works great and allows you to use your favorite coffee. Don't get me wrong, I love my Nespresso, but I like to be able to drink the coffee I buy here and there as well. Plus, this makes it A LOT cheaper. It is a bit fiddly at first, but once you get the hang of it, there is no problem. Fits easily in the machine as well. I know some of these things don't. Pays to get the old coffee out as soon as possible, as it goes moldy in the pod.

Works great! Bit of a learning curve, but once you have it down it's easy to use. Put the cleaned capsule in the kit holder and then fill it. Clean the coffee dust off of the edge to insure new foil can stick down properly. Use the notch to align the foil to get the best fit.

The pods sealed using this leak. I noticed the amount of coffee in the cup was less than normal Nespresso pods. Turned out it was dishing ample liquid in yhe pod container. Definitely not worth it. Bad for the machine
