    Just a note to thank you for your excellent video on how to reuse the Nespresso coffee pods. I've tried several other methods, but yours works flawlessly. I saved some 7oz. for Americanos and fuller cups of coffee, and some 2.4oz. for espresso shots. It's pretty easy to prepare, I am going to do the process as a "hobby" and save some money as well as that small thing to do to reduce waste into the environment. Thank you so much for your video. I plan to share it with some friends. All the best to you.

    The silver adapter is to enable you to use an original nespresso pod in the vertuo machine as those pods are cheaper and easier to find.

      Does that work?

    • @sheilayazzie3016
      @sheilayazzie3016 4 месяца назад +2

      Yes it does but since the volume is smaller as it is the original capsules, the coffee may be weaker depending on the strength of the coffee.

    I have the Vertuo Plus Deluxe by Deghlongi. I like it because it's smaller and takes up less space, and the water reservoir can be rotated to the side to fit in tighter spaces because you know we have lots of coffee machines. I had to create a coffee bar

    Picked up our machine for a tenner second hand and then realised it didn't use the older style pods. King forward to trying the hack. Good style video. Great to hear a British voice doing a decent voiceover - i sound all whiny and limey when i try to do RUclips 😂

    (cling film)/(plastic wrap)/(papel filme) is easier and works very well with only one capsule, you need to wrap the entire capsule

    To get a really good cup of coffee, you first need good quality beans, not moldy, not eaten by insects etc, then to be properly roasted, not burnt, and then to be freshly ground just before you start brewing the coffee cup. Then to have an appropriate level of grinding depending on what brewing method you want to use, and then of course you get to prepare it in a suitable way. But if you are not starting from a good quality coffee, from a good source and roast, that you freshly grind before making a cup, you aren't really yet tasting the best cup of coffee. Try it

    Ottino sistema...😉😄... C'e' solo un particolare da prendere in considerazione. Le capsule originali sono ermeticamente chiuse, non soltanto per mantenere bene il caffe', ma per impedire le fuoriscite di liquido all'INTERNO della macchina Vertuo, dove ci sono componenti elettroniche che non gradiscono il contatto con i liquidi. Quindi pensateci molto bene se avete una macchina nuova, io attendo che l'esclusiva Nespresso finisca per avere capsule generiche a buon mercato, e nel frattempo uso una Nespresso Essenza Mini con capsule generiche ottime, anche Lavazza. Buon caffe' a tutti da Roma 😉👍

    Good vdeo on how to make your own pod. Just one suggestion. Nesspreso coffe should always be an appreciation for the taste buds appreciation for the beauty of the look of a good coffee. Try using a double wall Bodum or other glass mug. You would be surprised at the beauty of the coffee and the foam.

    I dont believe people make videos about it and title as nespresso hack. Amazon sells all aliminum lids to be used for these, 100 foil is 8 dollars..and we use it the old nespresso cups for years. Nessus brand is the best for lids

    Does anyone have an idea what is the ground to use? I tried the French Roast brick from Aldi's and even though the ground seems larger than the nespresso coffee, it seems to be coming out of the holes around the edge and seems to be way stronger than using the Aldi coffee in my french press.
    I've done a few cups and noticed some ground at the bottom and even within the foam.
    I tried another unbutchered pod and noticed slightly less ground within the foam.
    So I am at the point of trying different coffees, but would like to hear from you all as to whether to get Fine, Super Fine grind.
    I might even try a coarser ground just to see.

      Medium Grind, No Coffee Grinds in my cup. I sandwich together "Press'NSeal Glad Wrap to Heavyduty Foil *BEFORE* I seal in the coffee in the modified Nespresso Vertuo Pod as shown in the video. The PressNSeal Glad Wrap is sticky on one side making it easy to stick to the Heavy Duty Foil, to create the top seal of the Modified Pod. I seal the modified pod with the plastic side up. Try and keep the top of the new (Plastic & Foil) tight while attaching to the DIY Pod. Good Luck

    Why not just make an ordinary coffee with the coffee you add to the pod, even better for the planet. ;-) Didn't realise Nespresso have these new capsules coded and patented until 2030 hence they are pushing buyers to them as the patent on the orginals has run out.
