Review: Bluecup, using Sage Nespresso machine with Pact coffee - I’m not one for writing reviews normally, but it’s nice to try something new and it just does what it says on the tin. Thanks Bluecup! Let’s just check this out for a second as to what we are considering here... The potential of the bluecup is to massively increase the versatility and enjoyment I get from my Nespresso machine. Of course the Nespresso brand coffee is good and I’m a regular user of Roma and Arpeggio, then a number of others for longer drinks like flat white or latte. They also do limited edition coffees, which are super.. like around christmas time, but what I’ve found is that whilst those are excellent, they are only available for a short time and then you are back to your bog standard. It’s nicer to have a bit of variety all year round. Anyhow, for my purposes here, I had heard that Pact coffee is a great online supplier and they do some interesting and limited blends, so I thought I would give this a try. It’s not cheap, but I’m big into coffee.. I can’t function without it. Say, if I go away on a work trip, the morning coffee served at hotel breakfast just doesn’t cut it for me. I need dimensions and I need a kick. So what are my expectations from Bluecup? they deliver on exactly that. It has to open up that potential and it has to deliver on flavour, moreover I need that feeling that I get from a good coffee. When it arrives, what do you get? Well you get two plastic blue cups and a bunch of foil lids, then you have a holder and a screw top to seal the lids... so it’s really simple. The key to the design is normal nespresso machines have a spike mechanism that punches holes in your capsule. Here you don’t want the spikes making holes in your bluecup, so there is an indented area to allow for those spikes, making the bleucup slightly smaller than your traditional capsule. Once the bluecup is filled, you get your foil lid, stick it into the screw device and when you turn the screw it seal the lid. A good seal is essential, so it is the force and heat from the steam that should help to rupture the foil evenly. You don’t want any gaps as the water will escape without brewing your coffee. Does it work, YES. Very consistent and well sealed bluecups, every time. Something worth noting here. The instructions say to use a plastic scoop to put your coffee in the bluecup, but I use my hands and scoop the coffee in. Prior to buying this, I experimented a lot with other capsules and the key to making a nice re-usable capsule coffee in these nespresso machines is to get a feel for how well pressed the coffee should be. It’s not a science, you just feel it. Not too pressed, not over packed, and not loose. The hot water/steam has to feed through at a rate. Too fast and you get a poor brew, too slow and you get a good brew initially, but you end up with a short shot or over brewed flavour and harsh bitterness. What I do is I first fill to the brim with loose coffee, then I push the coffee into the bluecup firm with my thumb, I might add a little extra but the second time I don’t push down and overpack the coffee. So since buying, what do I think about this...? Well right on, bravo guys.. this thing worked first time, second time and third time, straight out of the box. It takes me 30 seconds to load and 30 seconds to clean. The flavour packs that punch.. I can say I’m very pleased indeed. Now I get to use any espresso blend coffee and the landscape of what I can have for a treat in the morning has been expanded enormously. I only put 4/5 on here instead of 5/5 because 5/5 would signify the perfect coffee... maybe I will get there, I think it also depends largely on the blend, which is not a directly product related thing, but you can’t really separate that from what the product does in reality. I word of warning on here regarding how this is going to work for you, as some people writing reviews seem a little naive. This works great on my nespresso machine and for me it was worth a try for the potential benefits. Mine is the Sage Nespresso machine, with a steaming wand. I love it. There is no connection between myself and sage, or pact, or bluecup, I’m just telling you my experience. Will it work the same on any machine? well maybe not, but then you need to understand the hints and tips I highlighted above. Next is about the coffee you choose. If you try a blend and it doesn't work brilliantly, try a different blend. Some blends don’t brew nicely using this steam mechanism found on nespresso machines. Its a very particular thing.. but look with bluecup your potential has massively increased. My perspective is this, if you like coffee, you want more variety, try it... well worth the money!
Review: Simple, effective alternative to nespresso pods - The starter kit comes with two capsules, a spoon handle, 100 lids and a lid sealing machine, plus a bonus pack of coffee. It is very easy to use. The capsule clicks into the spoon handle to create a spoon which you use to scoop up your ground coffee. You then place the capsule into the bottom part of the lid machine, unclip the handle, pat down the coffee and place a foil lid on top. The top half of the machine is then attached and you twist it to seal the lid on to the capsule. Untwist, press a button to release the capsule and there is your coffee pod ready to use. It takes about 30 seconds and seems relatively foolproof. Once brewing is complete, peel off the lid, empty out the used coffee, rinse and repeat. I have so far tried the included bluecup coffee and a generic supermarket brand. Both make decent cups of coffee, with a bit of a creamy head. Perhaps not as much as some of the nespresso capsules but I have yet to try different coffees which might do so. The recommendation is to use slightly coarser - cafetiere - coffee and not fine espresso grind, and to not compact it too much during capsule production. I chose the Bluecup brand after much research. I was originally looking for a one-piece, no wastage, capsule but apparently you need a bit of pressure to build up in the pod to create the creamy espresso head. Screw-on lid type capsules don't allow sufficient pressure to build up whereas the aluminium lid does this before it gets perforated. The foil lids are thick enough without feeling like a lot of aluminium is getting disposed of at the end. The support from the company was excellent as well. DHL temporarily misplaced my package and Bluecup were very responsive to my concern - even at the weekend - and were prepared to send out a replacement set in case the original didn't show up. In the end it did, and within the stated delivery time. I have ended up ordering extra capsules and lids as I really like the concept and product - these turned up within a few days. I would highly recommend this as a simple, effective and environmentally friendly alternative to nespresso pods.

## Features

- A PATENTED SEALING SYSTEM — NO GLUE, JUST A CLEAN FOIL SEAL: Bluecup uses a patented design that crimps a clean aluminium foil tightly around the capsule rim — sealed like a real Nespresso pod, without adhesive. The result: an airtight seal that holds under 19 bars of espresso pressure, brew after brew, for rich, full-bodied espresso the way it's meant to taste. Designed and made in the Netherlands since 2016.
- 25% MORE COFFEE — 5.2g VS 4g IN STANDARD REUSABLE PODS: Bluecup capsules hold a full 5.2 grams of ground coffee, giving you a fuller body, richer crema and more aroma than cheaper kits that hold only 4g and produce thin, under-extracted shots. Use any supermarket espresso blend or your favourite speciality roast — Bluecup brings out the full character of whatever you brew.
- ORIGINAL LINE ONLY — CHECK YOUR MACHINE FIRST: Bluecup works with Nespresso Original Line machines: Essenza, Pixie, Citiz, Inissia, Lattissima, Expert, Creatista and most other Original Line models. NOT compatible with Vertuo, VertuoLine or VertuoPlus. If your machine takes round, dome-shaped capsules — that's Vertuo, and Bluecup won't work. Got an Original Line machine? You're sorted.
- THE GRIND MAKES OR BREAKS YOUR SHOT — HERE'S THE FIX: Bluecup works best with a medium-fine grind, slightly coarser than traditional espresso. Most supermarket espresso blends work a treat straight out of the bag. Avoid ultra-fine "Turkish" or "espresso-style" pre-ground coffee — it packs too tightly and stalls the flow. Get this right once and every cup after is effortless.
- BPA-FREE, DISHWASHER-SAFE, BUILT TO LAST YEARS: Made from food-safe, BPA-free heat-resistant material — gentler on your Nespresso machine than stainless steel pods, fully dishwasher-safe and designed for years of daily use. One Bluecup replaces 300+ single-use pods every year. The only thing you'll ever reorder are the foil lids — and every brew keeps another pod out of landfill.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will Bluecup work with my Nespresso machine?**
A: Bluecup works with every Nespresso Original Line machine, including Essenza, Pixie, Citiz, Inissia, Lattissima, Expert and Creatista. Not compatible with Vertuo. If your machine uses flat, capsule-shaped pods, you have an Original.

**Q: Will the coffee taste as good as a real Nespresso pod?**
A: With a decent supermarket espresso grind, the cup is comparable in body and crema. Lavazza Qualità Rossa and Lavazza Crema Gusto both work very well. Avoid very fine grinds, which can pack too tightly and block the flow. The taste is in your hands.

**Q: Could Bluecup leak inside or damage my machine?**
A: No. Thousands of UK customers use Bluecup daily without issues. The patented seal holds firm under the 19 bar brewing pressure, so nothing escapes into the machine. Bluecup has been designed and refined since 2016 with this exact concern in mind.

**Q: How do I fill and clean it, and is it dishwasher safe?**
A: Spoon in ground coffee, level it flat with the back of the spoon, no need to press down. Press the lid on with the Pod Sealer and brew. After use, tip the spent grounds into your food waste and rinse, or place the capsule in the dishwasher.

**Q: How long does a Bluecup last, and how much waste does it save?**
A: A single Bluecup capsule lasts for years of daily use and replaces over 300 disposable pods a year. The only thing you throw away after each cup is a thin aluminium foil, which goes in your household recycling. No more pods piling up.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works a teat, lids are way too expensive
*by L***N on 31 October 2022*

As a long time espresso drinker, I love my morning Fix, even at 39p a capsule, I do get despondent at Nespresso's pricing, although the recycling argument is largely dead in the water when Nespresso pick up your old capsules for free. Overall my first impressions are good, I like strong espresso so tend to use a fine grind; my Nespresso machine struggles a little with a really fine grind and too much tamping in the pods. A little less tamping and a slightly coarser grind, and it works a treat. Price wise you are going to break even after about 100 espressos and then the costs work out at slightly under half a Nespresso capsule and you get to play with your own blends while having the convenience of pods. I marked this down on value for money as Bluecup clearly make a profit on the lids which work out at 5.5p per aluminium cap, sorry that is a rip-off and you need to change it before someone starts peddling aftermarket ones for half the price and still makes a tidy profit.
