Nespresso - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly !

The sustainability story at Nespresso is a mix of the good, the bad and the ugly. On coffee sourcing, the company – part of Swiss multinational Nestle – is an industry leader, training coffee farmers and paying premium prices. In the last few years, it has invested in reviving coffee production in war-weary South Sudan. That’s good. But the company’s single-serve aluminum pods create unnecessary waste. A valuable, energy-intensive resource winds up in landfills. That’s bad. Nespresso w...

It All Adds Up......

18 months back we opened up our doors and became a drop off point for used Nescafe Dolce Gusto Pods. Since then we've mailed off thousands of pods to Terracycle for recycling. Each pod received has a dollar value and once every few months they let us know our total - right now its $112. We then gift this to Variety - The Children's Charity. Loop completed - well done guys...... ...

What's The Difference Between Compostable and Bio-Degradable?

The words compostable and biodegradable are quite often confused but there is quite a difference between the meaning of both words.Everything is biodegradable - over time. Even a plastic bottle will biodegrade over centuries. Biodegrade simply means to break down into smaller pieces. The problem with that is that the smaller pieces are still plastic.Not everything is compostable. Compostable means that a product is capable of disintegrating into natural elements in a compost&...

Which Caffesso Makes For The Best Flat White From Your Nespresso Machine?

Most coffee pods come with an intensity rating - this rating tells you the strength of taste of the ground coffee. The strength of taste depends on the types of beans used, the geographical region where the beans were grown and the roasting process.  For any milk based recipe, you should seek out the higher rated blends - like the Caffesso Intenso, Indiano, Forza Roma, Milano or Sidamo. This is because the taste of the lower rated blends can get lost in the milk. Try our Intense Pack and fi...

Nespresso Machine Descaling - NZ

Did you know that George Clooney says that you should descale your machine every 300 brews - based on two brews per day that would be every 3-4 months. Descaling is a key part of Nespresso Machine maintenance. It removes the calcium build up inside the machine which, if left unattended, can cause it to break down. We sell a descaling tablet at less than $3 each. Happy Days........

Nespresso Machine? - What Are Your Pod Options?

If you own a Nespresso machine here in New Zealand, then you will understand that there are quite a few pod options to choose from. Original Nespresso pods are only available direct from Nespresso. They want you to be a member of their Club and so you need to sign up before they sell you anything. A pod can cost you up to $1.17 and, if you are buying online, then you have to buy in multiple of 50 pods at a time. The pods are made from Aluminium and so cannot be recycled very easily. You cannot p...

How To Look After Your Nespresso Machine

Regardless of which Nespresso machine model that you have, you are going to want to make sure that you protect your investment. Like any home appliance, provided you follow a few simple tips, then your machine should work for a good few years without issue.First up, try not to let the water tank run dry. When this happens, the machine sucks in air rather than water and can cause an air lock. This leads to lower pressure and can cause long term problems. If this has happened to you, email us for ...

The Best Nespresso Compatible Pod In New Zealand

Steve and I chose to represent Caffesso here in New Zealand because it was great quality coffee in a hermetically sealed recyclable capsule. The pod design works as well as original Nespresso capsules and it is a product that we would buy ourselves. This meant we turned down 10 or so alternative capsule brands to concentrate solely on Caffesso. Perhaps the biggest accolade is what kiwis think of it. Click here to see the reviews....

How to Descale Your Nespresso Machine - NZ

Heaps of people right across New Zealand ask us whether descaling their Nespresso machine is a necessity. Our answer is always the same : a resounding YES. Over a period of some 300 brews, the "guts" of your Nespresso machine will start to be coated in a calcium build up. If left untreated, it will reduce the efficiency of your machine and ultimately break it too. Now nobody wants that, do they?Our descaling sachets are just $5 for two descales. You only need one per descale so pop a couple in y...
