I just recived my batch of NexPods that i ordered about a week ago. The idea is great, but it does not work! The espresso is the weakest I have ever tasted. Really a waste of money.... Just wanted to share that with you guys.
Nexpod Capsules doesn't get pierced in the back, they can be reused 2 or 3 times. In 2011 we introduced a whole new Design of the Nexpod and now it is working fine with all machines. Visit the Nexpod site for more information Tanks to all of our customers!
@sjefern I just wish I had watched your video before buying those crappy NexPod capsules ;-) Hope other people can benefit from our experience. Anyway, no big problem, they didn't cost a fortune...If only all our problems and failures were like this!
@victorovies Haha. It really did not? Well then it seems that there is no hope to get a good cup of espresso with nexpod. I have given up a long time ago. Easyer and better to stay with nespresso capsules :)
@sjefern There is no such a thing as the perfect grind. I tried refilling the NexPod capsules with coffee from a Nespresso capsule and it did not work. I guess the coffee Nespresso uses should have the perfect grind. Doesn't it?
@TheWToad Wron! You cannot refill the Nespresso capsules because each time you use them you get new holes in the back, thus loosing pressure and getting more and more water leaking. I have tried and I had that problem. the aluminium paper trick would do maybe once, then with nine holes or more in the back of your capsule it'll be just mess.
This bloke is like me. Just stick with nespresso!! They rule, plus he gills his cup to the exact same point as I do! A true nespresso drinker!! Wooooh!
@almeidamike The whole idea of espresso is that the water is forced through coffee under high pressure. If the coffee is packed too loose, the pressure will fall and your espresso won't succeed.
My guess is that it didn't work because the coffee wasn't packed enough. Don't forget that Nespresso-capsules are airtight and thus much denser than you will ever be able to do by hand.
I don't think that you are filling it right.
