Volcano Coffee Works | Balanced All Day | Nespresso Compatible Eco Coffee Pods | 100% Compostable Capsules | Carbon Neutral | Brazilian Origin | 10 Pack

Bought 100 capsules but found them to be very weak and watery. Had to get through them and got more used to them over time but wouldn't buy again

I wish they'd worked better in my machine. If they had it would have been 5 stars !A fantastic flavour. Nutty, sweet with a medium high strength.My issue was the pods kept blocking my machine, causing it to stop. Despite cleaning the machine and all other varieties of pods working well, they kept blocking and stopping the Nespresso. Really disappointing as when the few trickles came through, they were wonderful.If I could guarantee them working, I would definitely buy them again. A genuinely unique flavour.

Update 3/8 - I got in touch with Volcano and it seems they had issues with their older style capsules. They sent me the newer style and I can confirm they work perfectly in my Citiz now. The photo shows the old white capsule on the left and the newer style on the right.As others have said, the capsules don't work that well with my nespresso machine (Citiz). It then makes it hard to get a consistent drink - if you pierce the top manually, the drink can come out watery and tasteless. Shaking the capsule helps but it is also not a failsafe method.I've had about 2 decent shots of coffee out of 8 attempts. They are good when it works at least.

I was used to drink Volcano coffee in my WeWork days. Packaging is great and pods work just fine with my Lattissima One. Coffee is not as strong as you might expect with a bitter, liquorice aftertaste typical of many UK based roasters. I'd would recommend for a latte/cappuccino drink.

I decided to try these because I was looking for compostible pods and I’m familiar with Volcano Works’ coffee: we have it in the machine and in use by the barista bar at the office.I was *not* disappointed!The pods work fine in my Magimix Essenza mini machine. They don’t always eject so smoothly - the “fins” that pop out when the machine pushes into the base to inject the water do catch sometimes as it drops into the hopper - but it’s no huge inconvenience and it’s more than compensated for by the good coffee.This particular roast - balanced - is great as a milk-based coffee. The smoothness combines well.I also like that - and this is possibly because the compostible pods are a little porous - they are packed 5 together inside of a sealed packet (also compostible according to Volcano) which helps keep the flavour in until you go to use them.

Disappointingly they are not compatible with the Nepresso Virtuo. Looks like I'll have to open them and use in a cafetiere.

Flavour is nice enough, but the pods were temperamental in my nespresso machine... sometimes had to take out and drop back in several times before it worked.

Comes with 3 different grinds, the 'Morning' one is the only one that is palatable, and honestly if i had just purchased 3 packs based on taste alone this would be a four star review - however I had issues with some of the pods not filling up the cup correctly - and reading the other reviews looks like i'm not the only one!!!
