Reusable coffee capsules for Nespresso®³ in comparison - ecological alternatives

Do you want to prepare your coffee quickly and easily? Capsule machines offer a quick way to enjoy fresh and aromatic coffee at the touch of a button. The ingredients are very easy to put together. You need a capsule machine, some water and a capsule filled with wonderfully fragrant coffee. But despite all the simplicity, the ecological aspect should not be neglected. What options do you have to treat yourself to a well-deserved break without feeling guilty?

An alternative was created some time ago by manufacturers of reusable coffee capsules. Environmentally conscious coffee capsule fans associate several advantages with refillable coffee capsules in the spirit of the zero-waste concept. These refillable cases are available in both plastic and stainless steel. The capsule is repeatedly filled with finely ground coffee and then, depending on the model, sealed with a sealing ring between the capsule and the lid.

This is where the first challenge arises. To get a great taste, the ground coffee should be pressed well into the capsule. With plastic models, this can mean that the soft capsule is compressed a little during the process and therefore no longer slides into the machine with 100% precision. The additional time required to clean up spilled coffee powder should also be considered here. In any case, it is worth experimenting with the types of coffee, the degree of grinding, the amount of coffee used and the pressure until you get the desired result. This requires a lot of patience, skill and, above all, a steady hand.

The environmentally friendly and at the same time simple capsule from My Coffee Cup does not contain any aluminum or conventional plastic. The capsule shell is made mostly of bio-based raw materials (link). The proportion of biogenic carbon is 96%. With no mess and above all with a continuous enjoyment experience, the organic coffee capsule offers a sustainable and cost-effective alternative and is also very easy to use. The organic coffee scores with an intense aroma, a particularly delicious crema and uncomplicated handling.

For fans of a variety of flavors, the environmentally friendly organic coffee capsules from My Coffee Cup offer another clear advantage. The sealed capsules retain their aroma even for months. Users of reusable coffee capsules are sometimes faced with the challenge of having several coffee bags opened at the same time. Over a longer period of time, the coffee aroma can be lost.

For the sake of the environment, many coffee lovers are thinking about possible alternatives to aluminum capsules. There are already some alternatives, such as reusable coffee capsules. If you are looking for excellent natural taste, My Coffee Cup is the right place for you. Ristretto, crema or Lungo - you can easily pour your favorite type of coffee into your coffee cup at the touch of a button without spilling anything. By selecting the best ingredients of first-class quality, the foundation is laid for the perfect coffee enjoyment without any guilty conscience.
