Coffee Capsule Machines.

[Lite Beer]

I recently bought this machine https://www.lazada.co.th/products/i4830277679-s21790409485.html?urlFlag=true&mp=1

It can take Nespresso. Dulce Gusto. K Cup and regular ground coffee.

With the choice of cheaper compatible  coffee capsules available nowadays what is your view on compatible capsules?

Forget those cheap coffee capsule offers! The only edible ones you get from Nespresso, Illy and Starbucks. Everything else is just a watery brew with a coffee flavor.

If memory serves me correct,  those capsule machine's are about 4,500 for the Gusto I think.  

So how much are the capsules and each capsule makes 1 coffee ....   ?  

 

The taste is probably more like a premium instant unlike a ground coffee  ...

Just buy the re usable pods and your favorite brand of coffee.

It takes normal ground coffee as well.

So will probably use that.

Cheap capsules are 10 Baht.

Originals are rather expensive.

 

Best to use my favourite ground coffee I think.

Just bought the exact same machine a few weeks ago. Always love when hotels and waiting areas have these capsule coffee machines, as the coffee is always excellent. I've purchased Starbucks Dolce Gusto and Nespresso capsules and the taste is not good and very disappointing. Also the coffee isn't hot enough. Underwhelmed with this machine and regret this purchase. Should have just gone with the Nespresso machine. Will keep trying new and different flavors and brands of coffee capsules, but already considering a different machine. Likely Nespresso.

The coffee is better then I thought.  But, the portion is about 1/3 of a cup I would draw from fresh brew.  So, 3 capsules seemed stupid to get what I like.  I gave the one I had to some lady I met.

I thought it tasted ok using fresh ground coffee.

The machine has 7 different size settings so you can adjust the pour.

I chose this machine because of the range of capsules or fresh ground coffee.

A moka pot for 200 baht and choosing a coffee you actually like would be a much better idea

Why would I do that when I can already use Boncafe or other in the machine I have?
