Our standard coffee pods contain approximately 60mg of caffeine per pod - stronger pods like Intense & Ca Phe Da have around 75mg per pod. Our Chai Latte pods only contain approximately 15 mg of caffeine per pod. Our Decaf pods use a moutain water process to wash the beans which removes 99.9% of the caffeine.

POD CO. coffee pods are designed to take up to 25 seconds for optimal extraction. We have carefully worked on this to deliver the closest possible experience to what you would get from a commercial espresso machine. The slower extraction time allows for maximum flavour, crema and aroma. 

Our coffee pods have a shelf life of 12 months however we recommend that you use your POD CO. coffee pods within 60 days of opening the packet to enjoy them at their best. Just make sure the resealable bag is closed properly after every use.

Yes! Our coffee pods are made from plant based materials which are 100% biodegradable and compostable and will break down in as quick as 90 days!

Technically it is possible to dispose of our pods in your home compost and some of our customers have had great success with home composting however the time it will take the pods to breakdown will vary considerably depending on the conditions of your compost so it isn't something we can widely recommend. In commercial composting, our pods will breakdown in around 90 days. We recommend also checking with your local council to see if they will accept the pods along with food scraps in your green waste bin.

Over the years we have explored many ways of printing on the lids to differentiate our pods once outside the box however we have never felt completely comfortable putting ink on the lids that may end up in your coffee. We'll keep searching for ways to make our pods different but until then we recommend storing our pods in the box or in a labelled airtight container.

Our coffee capsules have been specifically designed for use with the Nespresso® system so they will not cause any damage to your machine. The capsules are made of a flexible yielding material which won't damage your machine during the extraction process.

Definitely. You should look to descale your machine at least once a month – if not more if you use your machine quite frequently – preferably with an organic descaler.

To make sure you don’t get a build-up of coffee in your machine, we recommend that you run water through the machine first thing in the morning before you make your first coffee. It will make a big difference to the lifespan of your machine and you can always use that water to warm your cup before brewing.

Unfortunately our capsules are only compatible with Original Line Nespresso® machines. POD CO. coffee pods are not compatible with Nespresso® Vertuo, Nespresso® Professional, Lavazza, Espressotoria, Expressi or Dolce Gusto machines.
