Reusable Coffee Adapter for Dolce Gusto Ground Refillable Coffee Converter Compatible with Piccolo XS/Mini Me/Genis S/EDG 305/EDG 606. Coffee Capsule Adapter Holder with Steel Coffee Tamper

Fits the machine well, produces a good coffee. Been using it for a couple of months now with no issues at all.

So far so good on this one. Only used a dozen times or so and not sure how long the seal will last. Comes with spare seal though which is good. Quite stiff to close but no leaks yet. It retains more water and the coffee sticks to it more than my stove top machine so makes it a bit messy to clean, the little brush provided doesn’t really help here. The lid comes off to make cleaning easier but this comes off a bit too easily for my liking and sometimes detaches when I don’t want it to. I like that this item means I still have the convenience of my machine but no more pods to lug to the recycle drop off.

I have tried a couple of different reusable pods which have either not worked at all or been too fiddly. These are easy to use and work consistently. We like to drink lattes and find that 4 level scoops of coffee, well tamped between each scoop and machine setting of 3 gives a good base for topping off with milk. It is worth getting the tamper and stand as these make it easier to fill the pod. We drink a lot of coffee so although these are expensive, they will pay for themselves as loose coffee is so much cheaper than buying the dolce gusto pods and also no longer using throw away plastic

Very good. Doesn't leak and stops me wasting money and plastic

It arrived before the scheduled delivery date, very well packaged, good quality, easy to use and clean, fits perfectly well in my coffee machine and it's fantastic for people who wants to use their own favourite ground coffee brand!

It does a decent job of providing an espresso-like experience. However, I've found that the tamper provided doesn't fit perfectly, leaving gaps that can affect the quality of the coffee. The inclusion of extra O-ring rubber seals is a thoughtful touch, but they seem quite fragile and I doubt they'll last long.

This coffee adapter offers a fantastic alternative to single-use capsules, allowing you to use your favourite ground coffee in Dolce Gusto machines. It’s compatible with multiple models, including Piccolo XS, Mini Me, Genio S, EDG 305, and EDG 606, and fits snugly into the machine for an easy and hassle-free brewing experience. The included steel tamper adds a nice touch, helping you achieve a balanced tamp for rich, flavourful coffee with every use. This adapter is a great eco-friendly solution that also cuts down on costs associated with pre-filled capsules.### Pros:- **Reusable & Eco-Friendly**: Reduces waste associated with disposable capsules and is a more sustainable choice.- **Cost-Effective**: Allows you to use your preferred ground coffee, saving money compared to pre-packaged capsules.- **Easy Compatibility**: Fits well with several Dolce Gusto models, making it a versatile option.- **Steel Tamper Included**: Enhances brewing by allowing an even tamp, which improves coffee extraction.- **Durable Design**: The materials feel solid and built to withstand frequent use.### Cons:- **Learning Curve**: Finding the right grind size and tamp level can take some trial and error for the best results.- **Cleaning**: Requires a bit of maintenance as it needs thorough cleaning between uses to avoid coffee build-up.- **Slight Leakage Risk**: Occasionally, if not properly sealed, it may leak during the brewing process.Overall, this adapter is an excellent addition for anyone looking to personalize their coffee experience with a Dolce Gusto machine while reducing waste.
