Nespresso refill

[talisaaa]

 this is waaaaaayyy too much water for an espresso...it's short..like just a sip..not a full cup ;)

[eddietheeditor]

Blimey I'd rather drink tea than go to all that hassle!

[iTracking]

I would think one would do it because the coffee itself in the nespresso pods is quite bad. This way you can get better tasting coffee. Then again, I myself just go with drip since it better than anything that will come out of a nespresso machine.

[ciske72]

een echte hollander volgens mij gewoon kopen die handel !!!

als je geld wil uitsparen koop dan toch gewoon een senseo dat is even smaakeloos kan je beter slootwater drinken

[cplantier]

Thank you for the idea, I don't understand why so many negative comments, if you don't like it, don't do it...

[vliberal]

DRINK IT IF YOU'RE A MAN! I WANNA SEE THAT...

[hillena]

if you can not afford nespresso do not buy the machine this is PATHETIC

[stclairej]

Does this ass-wipe have a job? Where does he get the time?

[nixsogutstudios]

sad

[diocleziano01]

i think that that coffe is too much liquid than nespresso, which use to have lot of foam

[ziggy99]

how does the refill and the refill container look after You done this??

[hra1439]

YOU're soooooo cheap.

[kemjira]

i just got my nespresso d290 ... i gotta be honest ... the capsules is way too expensive it cost almost 1 dollar each... for that i think i 'll go to starbucks !!!!

[gomerfa]

So much work for 25cents -.-

[adamaliabarnes]

surely the point of a nespresso machine is pods that are CONVENIENT, and easy to use? Not tricky, dangerous (for your machine) and a waste of time.

[NexPod]

Why don't you try NexPod? Find out more on nexpod.com

[thesteef78]

Very very sad, shame on you !

[laregatapr]

As long as Nespresso don't offer top brews (Puerto Rican, Colombian, Jamaican) we are forced to refill some capsules with "Café Alto Grande".

[IglooVindaloo]

Nice - and it cuts down on non-recyclable waste, which would otherwise just to the incinerator - or worse still - the landfill

[Vitamina57]

Ahh é fiche é fiche aprender a fazer isso xDD

Fica ai nos cafés (:

[szymczyk77]

WOW. you mean with several minutes fucking about, some pre-bought coffee and a sheet of tinfoil and I can save like 40c??? Id keep this quiet, Nespresso may hunt you down. Twerp!

[szymczyk77]

@szymczyk77

AND I get to possibly fuck my machine up. all for a 40c saving? What a plan....

[mikevanstaveren]

bah very sad, if you want your "own home brew coffee" you shouldnt have bought a nespresso machine

[caffenation]

@mikevanstaveren it's not my machine

[huhwut24]

You cannot really 'damage' the machine this way.

Pros:

First and foremost, you can use the coffe you LIKE, not whatever crap they sell prepacked.

Second, premade capsules are much more convinient than having to deal with classical manual espresso machine at 7am in the morning.

Third, *good* automatic espresso makers (the ones that can maintain proper pressure through entire brewing cycle) start from 3000$. Compare that with nespresso machine and draw your conclusions.

[SimenV]

This is the dumbest thing I have seen in a long time. Ever heard of opportunity cost?

[jvflexx]

GREAT IDEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[caffenation]

this is my job

[zangin]

@caffenation Bravo! What a great idea.

[tacos87]

get a job!

[willzville1988]

I DON'T GET THIS!!?!?!?

The point of a nespresso machine or any other capsule coffee system (e.g. dolce gusto, etc) is to simplify the production of a quality coffee.

Why would someone buy a nespresso machine, and then reuse & refill the capsules? If you really wanted to save money just buy a normal machine and use the crap that you filled your resued capsules with!

[Fr33man101]

there can be different reasons to do that.

for example someone buys that machine and after a year he sees: "oh man, this shit costs me with time more than 2 machines"

and then he starts refilling it, untill he gets the money together to buy another one.

or someone wants only to have on mornings a simple, fast coffee.

so he refills around 10 capsules at evening and makes the coffee at morning at the simple, fast way.

and so on....

[somdv]

@cafenation: at first I thought this was just a joke, but you really did test this I suppose. Of course you should not do this with your brand new nespresso machine, but it sure answer the Cloony question: "What else.." ;o)

Thanks for sharing this!

[Kyranoboss]

You might as well use a cafetier.

[dalconhobbies]

I have a Nespresso.. at $0.70 a capsule, I would not bother... BUT... should the capsules one day become unavailable, this becomes a viable option.

[urshk2003]

what is the point in doing that.. all the effort of re-fill and damage to the machine is more expensive than a new capsule...

[Jamylee1]

plutot malin et economique

[Nurockie]

why have a nespresso machine if you have to resort to this? very sad.

[caffenation]

it's not my machine

[zib3]

@Nurockie

very, very sad! i can't imagine anything being sadder than that :(! very sad QQ

[zangin]

@zib3 What's sad about it? I think it's a great idea. Simple, and you can use your own coffee. I see no way how this could possibly harm the machine. The only issue I can think of is the hole where the water is injected will begin to widen after it's used many times...and the water might spill out some on the top.. but anyhow. Bravo to the guy who did and filmed this!! I'm looking forward to re-using my capsules.

[zib3]

@zangin

your sarcasmometer needs some calibration -.-

[cp6166cp]

refilll = coffee capsule not in vacumm mode, there are holes on the capsule shelf , right !

[aethiolas]

Couple of questions:

1. How does this damage the machine?

2. What kind of damage are we talking about?

3. How likely is the damage?

4. How can the possibility of damage be minimized?

[caffenation]

1. and 2. It jams the machine.

3. I don't know. We fixed it quickly. A friend of mine had the same. Someone never had any damage.

4. Good question. Most honestly I never did it again. I'm a professional coffee man and have dozens of machines and hundreds of kilo's of coffee a week.

I just wanted to play around and show people an opportunity to save money.

[quarian]

Can I ask how you fixed the machine? I have a m100 also by magimix (manual) and I used this (with a really nice french roast grind as it was all I had) once to try for fun. My machine is new but no warranty coverage as I bought in a different country. So far after using this once, I'm back on normal nespresso capsules and I wasn't sure if sometimes the water flow is not as big as before. But it's still making really good espresso with the normal nespresso capsules.

[Umbychan]

why not using the normal capsules? they're great, easier to use and not very expensive either.

weird idea, though.

[micahbean]

what if my favorite coffee doesn't come in a nespresso capsule?

[asdfgh451]

Then maybe you shouldn't use Nespresso...

Just an idea.

[callumalden]

thanks caffenation... i can't believe the negative criticism re. this trick.

this allows you to use freshly ground coffee of your own choosing, and if you knew what you were doing - to your own blending preference (i would imagine).

i love the nespresso blends-- but the whole monopoly/patenting crap and consider the wastage... its beyond greed on Nestle's part.

[nexstar00]

This is a very ghetto solution

[icaro2000]

GREAT IDEA!!

1- Why should I buy Always from Nestle, the Giant??

2- More Ecological !! No waist!

3- There are must better Coffes in the WORLD! Timor, Arabia, Brazil etc. You could mix them at the coffe store. MUCH BETTER then Nespresso Crap.

4- Take advantage of the Low Price/Cool Design Nespresso machines.

Chinese When a refill capsule??

[yxdcvb]

Just buy a classical espresso machine. Easier and faster...

[caffenation]

i have 9 (nine) classical espresso machines, don't you worry. : )

[borea]

how many times can a single capsule be reused?

[xenut]

in front of the lack of money, imagination up power

[hsaki2]

OMG. Get a life

[Silkedeconinck]

maar 1 woord voor dit; gierige aap!koop dan geen nespresso als je het te duur vindt om capsules te kopen!

[caffenation]

wie zegt dat ik die capsules niet wil kopen? ik koop voor ongeveer 500 euro koffie per week. (natuurlijk niet alleen voor mij) en zeer veel koffie die vele malen duurder is dan nespresso. no shit.

dus scheldt misschien iemand anders uit de volgende keer. of nog beter ; scheldt niemand meer uit voor een onschuldig videootje.

[sachiofukuzawakeio]

僕もやってみました、やったあ、有り難う！！

[badanari]

Awesome!

[BtSSniff]

[erochan]
