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.

        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.

      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.

      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.
