“The product looks great and works well. The lid is easy to screw on each time. Unfortunately I didn't get a tamponade to compress the coffee into the pods, but I can use a teaspoon to do this. The ground coffee supplied had gone a bit stale already but I half expected that. Ground coffee doesn't usually last more than a few weeks at the most.
My biggest problem has been getting the right grind for a good strength coffee. It tends to taste a bit thin compared to the normal pre-made pods. I'm still practicing with different grinds”
“This pack has everything you need to get started. Love that it has some grind coffee in it so you know what consistency you will need to grind your own bean too. Very helpful. The pods fit my machine with out any issues. Strongly recommend this pack for anyone who was using plastic pods and wants to swap to better tasting coffee.”
“At first I had a bit of getting used to ‘clicking’ the pod into position in my Nespresso machine (an older type), but now that I have used the pods a few times, I am more than happy to use them. It also encourages me to use my machine more often, as I was finding it difficult to justify the land waste with the Nespresso pods. Now, the grinds go straight into my compost bin. Thank you Podstar. You really are stars! (And very clever to have thought of this product!).”
“I have been using the pods for Nespresso machine for the last two weeks, and they work as promised! I have so much fun playing with different coffee blends and trying different grinds - it is so cool when you get the grind right and the taste right! The grinder is quite good, light, and grinds well, however it does squeak sometimes and I am not sure how to fix that. Overall, I would highly recommend this set as a gift to coffee lovers that use coffee pod machines. They will grow to love and appreciate it! Well done Podstar!”
“Purchasing Podstar reusable pods for my ALDI K-Fee machine was the best thing I’ve ever done. I would never go back to disposable pods, Podstar is such a cost saving, environmentally friendly option that allows you to choose whatever coffee grounds you wish. Amazing product, I have purchased more as Christmas gifts!”
