Supplies to refill Nespresso pods (affiliate link): bit.ly/3pCFuaV

@rice_scopes Год назад

I would advise against putting soap on it, water and a paper towel would suffice. Also try to tamp the coffee with a flat circular object, and push down straight on it. The perfect amount should level up with the sides of the pod. The best grind setting would be one notch above the espresso setting.

@HomebodyEats Год назад

Thanks for adding your thoughts and advice 🥰

@oicangito Год назад

If you don't use soap you won't clean the coffee oils left behind, which would eventually become rancid or could change you coffee's taste!!

@1physics 7 месяцев назад

I can't imagine tamping straight makes any difference. The water won't be anywhere near evenly going through the puck whether it's straight or not. Espresso prep is redundant here

@rice_scopes 7 месяцев назад

@@1physics if the espresso is at an angle, the water distribution would be uneven resulting in a improperly extracted shot. Trust me, this was through trial and error

@She_Tried_It 2 месяца назад

I don't think so in filling and tamping. When I shake the commercial pods, they are not super full, you can hear quite a bit of space. I was hoping this video had measurements. I'm gonna have to waste pods to open and see the level of grind and measure the coffee for each size..

@eldabasa Год назад

This remind me back in days of How to fill hp printer, the whole idea nestle should make environmental friendly machines at first place

@She_Tried_It 2 месяца назад

Grounds are not fine enough if no creama. Or super cheap coffee. I was coming to see the measurements of coffee to put in each of the sizes. Guess I'll have to waste pods to measurements how much coffee.

@HomebodyEats 2 месяца назад

Yes, it turned out to be the type of grounds I was using! I use about 9g of coffee in a single shot and 11g in a double shot.

@Ellekan 8 месяцев назад

The nerd in me would have to open one to see the grind size it comes with and also bust out a kitchen scale so everything is as close to the original product as possible 😅

Tip: Coffee grounds are great for composting 💯 Its where I put the used content from the pods 💯

@HomebodyEats 4 месяца назад

Genius! Thanks for the tip!

@9255Cezer Год назад

Thanks for the video! I think it's important to include the importance of pressing down the seal adhesive on the interior rim as it may pop open and not function properly if not sealed thoroughly

@HomebodyEats Год назад

Yes, that's most definitely an important step!

@Lawyeronwheels 5 месяцев назад

There are systems that use silicone lids. I use a PODMKR which first grinds and then dispenses your coffee.

@hbolea4099 2 месяца назад

Because Nespresso pods are varying in size, and the machine uses the 'bar coding' on the lid of each pod to determine how many ml of water it should dispense, how's that work on generic sleeve lids with no bar coding? Not being negative, just genuinely asking. Thanks.

@HomebodyEats 2 месяца назад

That's a great question, and I'm not quite sure! What I can say is that it works without the bar code for both the single and double espresso shots (I've made them every day for the past 2 years 😂).

@mlebrock 3 дня назад

Isn't the bar code what we see on the top of the rim, when the pod is right side up. If the added lid covers it at any point, it will not work. At least, that is what I thought...

@HomebodyEats 3 дня назад

I'm not exactly sure the science or reasoning behind it, but I use refilled pods every day and the machine makes the type of refilled pod that I put in it (i.e. the right amount of liquid comes out for espresso shot vs lungo)

@Ummmmmkay88 8 месяцев назад

Would be awesome if someone made a small machine that would seal the pods for you.

@damo8754 Год назад

Brilliant idea

@ryanjohnson8960 9 месяцев назад

I don’t get this, if you’re refilling your pods why not just buy a regular coffee machine and drink like that.

@whitleynicole3416 9 месяцев назад

Because you aren't making regular coffee. You are making espresso. Drip machines and Nespresso machines work in two completely different ways.

I can’t figure out how high to fill them. Ive tried several now and they are all watery.

@HomebodyEats 11 месяцев назад

I fill them as full as possible, and then slightly tamp down the grounds to make sure it's completely full. 😊

@rodneysanders2637 7 месяцев назад

Make sure you are grinding it very fine, much more fine then drip coffee grinds

@seankiverchuk4627 7 месяцев назад

I weigh my original pod and matched the weight on my kitchen scale. Works perfectly

@Prodby3128 Год назад

I’ve noticed when i use my own grounds to fill the pod it’s not yielding as much as a normal pod would, why do you think that is?

@HomebodyEats Год назад

Since there are many factors that could affect this, I'm not quite sure. It could be the grind size is slightly different or how much coffee you're adding to the pod is different compared to how Nespresso packages the pods. Good luck! I hope with some experimenting you can fine tune it 🙂

@sarahagnalt 8 месяцев назад

Unpopular opinion: dont buy a Nespresso machine if the environment is a concern for you. Find alternatives 🙃 this reduces waste for sure but still creates waste.

@HomebodyEats 7 месяцев назад

Good point! There are definitely more eco-friendly machine options. Hopefully Nespresso will come up with a reusable metal pod that can be refilled soon 😊

@EDZU97 6 месяцев назад

Just buy a Keurig 🤦🏻‍♂️ what is the point of this

@HomebodyEats 6 месяцев назад

The Keurig doesn't make espresso, only coffee! A lot of people, including myself, want the machine for the espresso 🙂

@vanessac0382 Месяц назад

I wish it tasted like espresso, it doesn't even come close to the moka pot . However if you use the pods instead of reusing them, that's the only time it can come close to the espresso taste@@HomebodyEats

@MrBauleBeter Год назад

This is so useless. I have a pack of filter for 0,89€ and have a coffee within five minutes. I'm pretty sure, just the opening and cleaning of the used pod takes longer.
