RECAPS Stainless Steel Refillable Filters Reusable Pods Compatible with Nespresso Original Line Machine BUT NOT All (3 Pods+120 Lids+1 Tamper)

Great quality and works really well. Using these means you can use you're choice of ground coffee and be sure you're helping the environment . Making them up us a bit more effort, but it's worth it. I fill them in batches so they're always ready for when I want a coffee. Just remember, if you mix these and shop bought pods, don't accidentally throw them away!

Really nice set and once I had the method nailed the coffee is better.Essentially, don't overfill, about 3mm post gentle tamp and for me two pods gives the same strength as one standard strong nespresso pod. I used illy espresso ground coffee. Nice resultsCost wise, whilst cheaper than a genuine pod it is not by much for me. Don't forget, I use twice as many of these.I am pretty sure I see a move away from pods at home to a 'proper' espresso machine in my future. Roll on xmas

Super idea, delivery of coffee is weaker than nespresso caps just use a stronger coffee than normal and it’s gold. Fiddly with lids and getting coffee out after use. Still doing my bit for the environment !

First attempt was weak coffee ....so I dissected a 'real' capsule and discovered that they grind to a very fine power. That done, the next variable is the strength of tamping down .....not too hard ! Then I weighed the amount of coffee my little stove pot (15gm) had been using (sad ..I know) and how much was in the 'real' capsule(5gm). These excellent recaps are a tad smaller than "real" ....so I now use 2 per mug....I run the expresso cycle twice on each capsule ! Result !! Why all the fuss ? I do decaff and now have a brilliant tasting coffee, with no caff and it costs me less than my little stove pot ...never mind the saving against the 'real' capsules. Great product ...I'm having 3 more.New Extra advice ...borrowed this one from another review. Using a pin, put a circle of holes in the lid just inside the rim ..9 was the tip and it works for me.Extra extra advice ...rather than buy another 3 pack ..I bought 2 singles and now have 5 capsules and 3 packs of 120 lids ...way cheaper than buying the lids seperately.

Useless, didn’t work very well at all - waste of money. Weak coffee (tried several) , pod often jams in the machine. Putting the foils on is a faff. Now in landfill 😟

They are more eco friendly, hence I am still using them. The coffee is lighter, and it is a bit of a work to refill them each time after use.I like them cause i serves the purpose, reusable, and fairly good coffee.

I bought this as a Christmas gift and it's a wonderfully well-made item that provides a real alternative to Nespresso capsules. I had never even heard of this item! Much better for the environment too. Very easy to use, with the cost of reusable foils the only ongoing expense. The person receiving the gift absolutely loves it! Highly recommended.

To put this simply this is impossible to make a good expresso.There is always too much water. so you end up with some hot water that tastes like coffeeif you like coffee, don't do the same mistake as I did.
