“Was apprehensive as to whether these would work or not. I love the efficiency of pod coffee but not the waste, so gave these pods a go. They are awesome so far. Will never go back to regular pods again. I love that I can choose whatever coffee I want and am not bound to the pre-packaged stuff. Also bought some for my sister. I recommend getting the little metal scoop too, as it makes tamping easier.”
“I’m so glad that I switched to podstar ! So easy to use and clean. If you like a strong long black coffee like myself, I would recommend to use 2 capsules !”
“I’m very happy with these products - the pods are easy to use and function well in my Nespresso machine. The grinder is also really easy to use - smooth and functional! I also love that this is a local business.
I’ve already recommended the products to my friends and family! :)”
“the pods are great , but the temper has only one size and it doesn't really fit for my pod , it is smaller than the pod so you have to move it around which isnt as convenient as it if were the right size .”
“Quality product & service. and easy to use. Even our visitors comment on how good they are!
Q. Pod star - Any recommended tips for emptying, cleaning or maintenance?”
Thank you for your lovely review, it's wonderful to know the capsules are in good use, and you're enjoying them!
Tips for emptying, cleaning and maintenance:
1. Use a knife to run around the inside of the used pod to easily get the coffee grinds out.
2. Rinse the remaining grinds from the pod and leave to dry or dry with a tea towel if you want to use again right away. Used coffee can be put in your garden, or compost.
3. The machine needs to be maintained with descaling every few months but the Pod Star capsules don't require any maintenance. They can be placed in the dishwasher for a thorough clean every week or so, and to keep the life of the o-ring long, take that off before placing the pod and lid in the dishwasher.
That's it! I hope these tips will help, but please get in contact with us anytime you have a question or need assistance, we are here to help. Thanks again for making the switch and for choosing Pod Star. Happy podding and enjoy many waste-free delicious coffees!!
Kind regards,
