OK, but could use some improvements
THE GOOD:
Really inexpensive unit, and I like that I use my iron to seal it, (you can vary the sealing time to make sure it is sealed correctly). It’s an exceptionally good concept, but needs tweaking to make it a true replacement for commercial pods.
THE BAD:
I have the exact same coffee brewer shown in the photo of this product, so I assumed these pods would fit perfectly. They don’t. The pods that are produced with this system are deeper than what the machine allows, and the pods have straight sides verses the sloping sides of the pod holder that comes with the machine. You have to futz with the pods quite a bit to get it to fit in. Also tried in a Senseo machine with the same result.
The shipping time is long. I received an email stating that it was shipped on January 6th, yet didn’t receive it until January 24th. I can only assume that it didn’t actually ship on the 6th, as 18 days ship time within the US is pretty outrageous. I had that…
Great Product
I am so glad I purchased this! It works perfectly – FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS: rough side UP, iron on hottest setting, NO water in iron – voila! Perfect pods! Takes maybe 30 seconds to make each pod, in 10 minutes I’m stocked for the week. I’ve been using these with the Hamilton Beach Personal Cup One Cup Pod Brewer for about a month with zero issues.
Perfect low cost option for replacement pods.
After purchasing a pod brewer for work I went about to find a way to make my own. There are really very few options to do this and most of them involved more money than I wanted to pay. When I found this I was excited and so far it has exceeded my expectations. If you look at my previous purchases you will see the pod papers I use. I have also modified to a finer grind of 2T per pod for the perfect cup.
