    Nesspresso are tiny coffees, Need about 3 pods to get a normal cup.

    What are the lidl nespresso "copy" pods like?

    Better selection on Tassimo

    Think there's better again on the Dolce one

    I have both ,I got bored with the Tassimo and went and got a Nespresso.
    I use the pods from Lidl and Aldi and find them nice though yeah 2 pods a go for a ok size of cup.

    Tassimo online have a better range but not very strong.
    If I ran out was harder to get a good selection in the shops,while the Nespresso has a better shop range and fairly cheap.

    Nespresso is a nice little machine and sits smaller on the counter.

    But both are good in their own way

    Lidl pods are better than Aldi ones for me - they are individually sealed in foil bags/pockets as well as the seal on the pod, whereas the Aldi one just have the foil on the pod itself.

    I think it preserves the flavour, but then i could just have convinced myself of that....:)

    Fully agree with you there !
    Super value are doing pods also at €1.99 a box 3 types not too bad and packaged like Lidl.

    I've never bought 'real' Nespresso pods

    Normally drink a triple espresso? :rolleyes:

    Nespresso is good if you're 'into' coffee. It's a bit pricey but I love the machine, the pods and cups. It's one of those fancy little things that's a pleasure to use and the coffee is great IMO.

    Have both and prefer the nespresso all day long. Better flavour in the coffees. It does take 2 to make a full cup depending upon the size of the coffee you want and how strong. I don't like either the aldi of lidl ones, but the aldi ones have given trouble in my machine , if I run out of nespresso pods I like the coffee pod once I think they can be got in dunnes or the rob roberts ones.

    Tassimo is a nicer cup of coffee

    Obviously dont have one. You can alter the size to suit what you want.

    I actually have 2 of the Nespresso machines. Got them as gifts 2 years apart.
    I do use 3 pods for my morning cuppa. Use a single pod for coffees throughout the day.

    The Nespresso seems so oh I guess posh would be a word haha
    I feel into the hype of George :rolleyes:

    But having said that I do love them . Machine real easy to use and just popping in a pod for a shot is cool and I get to use my fancy little cups!

    I'll rephase, Nespresso is good if you're into 'a posh coffee experience' :D
