This is quite exciting in that it removes plastic waste. I see no reason why different companies can’t make different shape ones to maintain their lock-in. I expect a knock-off market to pop-up, but that exists with plastic pods too. It’s a step in the right direction at least.

      I think I’ve only seen these in France, which is crazy because it’s such a simple and elegant solution to this “problem”.

        Senseo is everywhere in the EU. Personally, I rank it below homemade filter coffee though.

        You can also order ESE pods straight from the region of Naples, Italy, they’re pretty good.

        I’ve seen these in hotels in Canada, but it was for use with a standard 4-cup machine

      Also known as ESE pods and available for order from Amazon, and coffee specialty sites!

        Basically, a single dose of coffee, wrapped, and sealed in traditional coffee filter material, which is inserted into the machine,can be thrown in to the compost.

      3rd party Senseo pads are a godsend; good easy fast coffee with a paper filtered coffee pad that just decomposes. I’m sad that it didn’t work out over Keurig.
