I reviewed these and compared them to the recafimil generic pod I had been using and had to admit that these were on another level in terms of flavour and resemblance to a real pod. I couldn’t get that crema and strength from my old ones! I’ve attached my full review and unedited brew.
I bought these pods and I brew my first cup on my Nespresso machine. When I went to make a second cup, the coffee did not come out. I was getting ready to return them thinking they did not work, but my son who loves to brew coffee told me to use the small plastic coffee measurement it came with and to level it out. I leveled it out with the stick side of the brush that came with the set. He told me to take the tamper and to just sit it on the coffee grounds, not to push it down, so I did. I let it sit on the coffee ground for 10 seconds. I removed it, closed the pod and tried it. The coffee was perfect. I have been following this procedure consistently since and it has not failed. I highly recommend these pods. They really work and the coffee is dark, robost and truly delicious with lots of crema. I use El Morro coffee espresso ground and Illy coffee grounds.
Thank you so much for the detailed review!
Yes - exactly! A little experimentation can make a huge difference with reusable pods. Usually the best results come from leveling the coffee nicely, avoiding overpacking, and only using a very light tamp rather than pressing firmly.
Really appreciate you sharing your process and experience, and we’re so glad you’re now getting a dark, rich cup with lots of crema.
high quality set and kit. Took some experimentation to get a strong cup but the staff guided me. overall a good product
I recently got into Nespresso with a Vertuo Pop+ Machine and quickly realized how expensive the pods were. I started researching alternatives and landed on smartpodz. I love them! I use a bag of Starbucks hazelnut coffee and make like 5 a day now LOL. Getting the starter pack for my sister for Christmas!
Great quality, well packaged & works well!
My only complaint, is that the barcode stickers only have numbers, no unit of measurement (they’re “ml” so for the largest brew size use the 230ml which gives you the 7.77oz serving) Other than that, great product!! Money well spent!

Very happy with this product. It works great with my machine and I can brew different amounts with the barcode stickers. The coffee and espresso also comes out frothy just like with a Nespresso pod. I originally got a different pod model that wasn't cooperating with my Nespresso machine. Customer service worked with me and traded out for this model and I couldn't be happier with the product.
Came in a lovely box and works so good. I use mcdonalds coffee in it!
Received these as a Christmas gift - love them! Completes the coffee station.
This is a great product - from packaging to usage! Love the versatility and that they actually produce a nice cup!
I had wasted money before on a reusable pod from Amazon and was hesitat to get these but glad to say they work great! I’ll attach a video of it
got mine today, gotta say it works better than I was expecting. Love the box too, perfect for a gift. Gonna get a set for my sister at Christmas!
Great for anyone looking to cut down on single use pods. These are the best I’ve had!
I have had to buy so many of these I started losing hope but finally these work. Stainless steel seems like the only alternative and the ones on Amazon leaked. Thanks!
