If needed, add additional coffee until the pod is almost filled to the top.

We say: Hazelnut has always been one of my favourite coffee flavours, so it’s good to see Nespresso continue the tradition with the Roasted Hazelnut, which replaces the older Hazelino Muffin. The difference here is that the hazelnut flavour is a little more intense, in a good way. These capsules are made from BPA-free plastic, and they’re rated to withstand the temperatures used in the Nespresso process. We appreciate touches such as this, but unfortunately, the flip-top design does get in the way of brewing crema-heavy rich espresso. Consider this option as a convenient alternative to disposable pods, but don’t hold out hope for these to fully replace the typical Nespresso experience. Then, thoroughly wash the pods with warm water and soap. Allow the pods to fully air dry or pat dry with a towel.Overall, I'd highly recommend this method. My Nespresso refill kit has saved me lots of money and helped me experiment with different flavored coffee. Expert Tips Making your own Nespresso Vertuo pods can seem time-consuming. However, this is an easy process to batch. I like to take 10 - 20 minutes every Sunday to refill my Nespresso pods for the week. However, it’s worth noting that some people may be hesitant to use reusable coffee pods due to concerns about taste or compatibility with their machines. Rest assured, we’ve researched and tested the best options to ensure a seamless transition and great-tasting coffee. For its Boost range, Nespresso takes caffeine extracted from raw beans during the decaffeination process, and then steam infuses them into green beans. The result is extra caffeine (20% more), without affecting the flavour profile of the beans. Melozio Boost You may notice some mold growing on the coffee grounds if they have been sitting around for a while. As long as you scrape out all of the grounds, the mold should not cause any problems.

We’ve taken the time to explore a variety of these sustainable alternatives, so you can make an informed decision and join the movement towards a greener, more enjoyable coffee experience. Once again, the base of this coffee is a split roast: Brazilian Bourbon for smoothness and Central American Arabicas to round out the flavours. The first sip delivers a smooth, relatively sweet hit, with an earthy, toasty taste. There’s a very smooth aftertaste to this coffee, making it a pleasant coffee to wake up to. The Melozio Boost does miss out on the more intense and interesting flavours of some other coffees on this list. We say:While the Jamaican Blue Mountain is probably the best-known speciality coffee, the lesser known Hawaii Kona coffee is arguably as good. As with other island coffees, this one is smoother than traditional arabica coffee grown at higher altitudes. We say: If you want an extra-strength coffee that tastes like it has more caffeine in it, the Stormio Boost is the one for you. As with the original version of this coffee, Stormio Boost uses a dark roast combination of Nicaraguan and Guatemalan coffee.

Final Words

The espresso from the refilled pods generally tastes a little weaker (although not very noticeable) than the original pods. Did you know that single-use coffee pods are wreaking havoc on our environment? It’s a staggering fact: one British producer even estimates that every minute a whopping 39,000 coffee pods are manufactured, while 29,000 end up in landfills. That’s a massive amount of aluminum waste. Although some recent studies assert that single-use coffee pods aren’t that bad for the environment, until we know more, it’s best to err on the safe side when it comes to sustainability and planetary health.
