Madama - Refillable and Reusable Capsule Compatible with Dolce Gusto. Stainless Steel and Food-grade Silicone. Pack of 2 pods

Liked this one so much I bought a couple for friends, as gifts. Fits the Dulce Gusto coffee maker well and makes a good cup of black coffee. (Doesn't work so well for steaming powdered milk, just clumps). But it does what it was supposed to and does it well. Like the different sized filters for different grinds of coffee. Holds up well in the dishwasher.

Muy buena calidad.

This review covers two different reusable Dolce Gusto Pods. I like a strong (espresso) type black coffee. I am using an espresso bean ground to an espresso grind. Same beans I use in an espresso machine as whole bean (the Dolce Gusto is my backup and for travel). I am attempting espresso-sized volume. I'm comparing the coffee it makes to single-use pods which make a very good espresso.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08B7ZNP68?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailshttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B08X71NJ67?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_detailsThe Madama pods make better coffee. But they have more pieces and seem to be a little more finicky to use and are definitely more work to clean. I either get a very good (not great but very good) coffee or nothing. Nothing means after activating the machine, nothing comes out. I wait as long as is reasonable (pressure is building after all), then give up. I am very careful to position the little hole in the correct spot, and to have the various filters set appropriately, etc. I used these pods for 5 days and the "nothing coming out" happened several times.The multi-colored plastic pods on the other hand make relatively decent coffee, most of the time. They are easier to use (one piece), but this is a big caveat, I use the tamper and the brush that came with the Madama pods. Without them, I don't think these would work as well. Putting the ground coffee in requires specificity so that the lid can be closed and sealed. The brush is needed (or something similar) to get any grounds off the ledge where the lid closes. The coffee that it produces is decent but not as good as the Madama. The coffee comes out very quickly and by the time the tiny espresso cup is half full, it is almost just water. So I fill the espresso cup only 2/3 up instead of full. With these, it is critical to get the little hole positioned properly in the Dolce Gusto, and these came with no instructions at all. I knew that because of the Madama instructions.All said, I prefer the multi-colored plastic pods. They are easier to clean, and more reliable, and the coffee is decent (again, using the tamper, brush, and instructions that came with the Madama pods...). Since I use the Dolce Gusto as a backup if my espresso machine needs repair, or for travel, these pods are satisfactory. If I was using them for my everyday coffee, I'd probably keep looking.

Great materials and structure. Ideal for use with freshly ground coffee. The coffee that comes out is almost the same as that of the original capsules.

me gusto

Rico sabor y aroma

El agujero no es compatible con Dolce gusto

The media could not be loaded. It works with a Nescafé dolce gusto mini me, I have the old model. It took me some minutes reading carefully the instructions. I use fine grind coffee and filter for espresso
