Some 3rd-party companies have attempted to create clone consumables (as an example Nespresso capsules) and ended up being taken to court by large multi-national companies threatening massive legal penalties for patent infringement. Nespresso and quite a few other manufacturers (such as Philips Senseo, Lavazza Blue, MAP, etc.) of POD or Capsule coffee appliances (equipment) specifically designed their systems with a proprietary lock-in so that owners can only use consumable products (pods or capsules) that are compatible with their machines. This product is the de-facto " OPEN" standard used throughout Europe and other continents. We deal only with ESE (Easy-Serving-Espresso) industry standard PODS. The term POD is sometimes confused with capsule and mostly in our experience it is the owners of Nespresso/DeLonghi equipment who are seeking alternatives. Unfortunately, this is not the case and owners of coffee equipment using single-serve capsules or PODS need to ensure they are searching and dealing with the correct product that suits their equipment. Most people are calling because they are dissatisfied with the limited range, bland flavour, high cost or alleged poor state of freshness from the PODS they have purchased previously.Ī common misunderstanding is that a POD is a POD and a POD is a capsule or a capsule is a POD, e.g. We receive a lot of calls every week from people searching for an improved POD to use on their coffee equipment.
