I was given the Dolce Gusto as a gift. I was delighted until I discovered that the pods are only sold online and that there are no other pods that will fit this machine. Bummer.

I too have the Dolce Gusto, and have been searching for other pods that will fit--Does anyone have any suggestions?
750674
Have you found any other pods that will fit this machine--I really don't like the taste of their pods.

I just went on to the Costco website, and they sell 70 pods for $29.99 that are compatible with the Dolce Gusto machine. They are called, Spresso Luxe.

I found on AMAZON a great deal for the refills.. ALL 27 flavors for 29.99... I like the coffee just not the fact that I can

I just called Nesspresso and spoke to a live rep and asked her if the pods w would fit the dolche gusto or any other machine and she said no--but I am still going to go to Williams Sonoma and see for myself---

thanks for the information about Costco, Spresso Luxe substitute pods for Dolce Gusto

Yes! We need to find some pods that fit. The dolce gusto pods are terrible and I'm sad :( Any luck?

Sorry guys, I tried it--but it does not fit it!! Wish they would come out with a filter so we could purchase our own expresso and do it that way!

I know of no other capsules that fit the Dolce Gusto machine. Their capsule style appears proprietary. I suggest you go to their website and recommend they add more products. I have done this several times hoping they might pay attention. I am hopeful they will offer a lactose free milk capsule and a decade cappuccino. It would be really good if they would let people mix and match dairy and expresso capsules.

Unfortunately, the Nescafe Dolce Gusto delivers a cup of coffee on par with instant coffee. The richest (1/2) cup comes from the Cortado. The Cappuccino, the Espresso Macchiato, and Chococino are weak excuses for coffee. Convenience in serving and cleanup are all that you're getting with the Nescafe Dolce Gusto... and stay away from the Matcha Green Tea Latte; it's horrid! The Reusable Capsules are a HUGE mess requiring a funnel.

No the verissmo is a different size. It calls for its own size cups. They are not as popular in the stores, however I do believe that starbucks does carry some.

You have to use the Nespresso's coffee pods! I have to tell you that this is Fabulous machine! I watch for the specials that they have & free shipping from time to time. That's when I stock up. The Nespresso machine & coffee are a real treat for me now that I've found my favorite flavors. I hope this helps! It is also so much easier to clean than older styles of espresso makers! I know some people may be thinking of the Keurig capsules which you can use your own coffee for that machine & they say they would rather buy them already filled.

K-cups won't fit into the Dolce Gusto. If you're buying the DG anyway, you could use it to dispense hot water for loose tea or tea bags.

I think you must buy a Dolce Gusto pods. If there is another brand than Dolce, you tell me.

You can use Starbucks Verismo milk pods directly in the machine, and I recommend using the espresso pump with them. The coffee pods fit, but the Verismo punctures the base of the pod where the CBTL does not so you have to poke a hole in the bottom. My experiments concluded that it isn't worth the hassle to use anything but the milk pods, which do not have to be punctured. The milk pods make fanstastic chai and latte coffee. You should always use a milk pod first so that the tea/coffee pod cleans the head of milk residue.

These pods will only fit the Starbucks Verismo machines. They are a different dimension than the K-cups and the Starbucks K-cups and will not work in any machine other than Starbucks Verismo.

No you can only use Dolce Gusto pods. But the coffee is so much better than K-Cup coffee

I was successfully using Caffitaly pods until today -- when I jammed my machine. It's now completely unusable. I'll be buying another Verismo machine, and I'll only use Starbucks pods from this point on.

Me, too. Got the Ecopods. Don't work. My Cafe makes much better coffee than Keurig. Please let me know what works. It's not easy finding the pre-made single serving pods neither...but I really want refillable pod.

I disagree with first two answers. Just had a CBTL Continental Espresso that i made in my Verismo Machine-worked fine and tasted great. The SB K-Fee pods are same size and form as the CBTL Caffitaly pods. They are made differently inside, the CBTL pods have plastic filters top and bottom, and the SB pods only have paper filter on the bottom. Maybe the different filters, or the way the coffee is packed, would make a difference in the way the water/steam goes through the pod. I haven't seen a noticeable difference yet--just got my verismo machine before Christmas--working on my first box of CBTL pods. Here is a link with more info and a good place to ask more questions. http://www.singleservecoffeeforums.com/new-verismo-single-serve-machine-from-starbucks-t9286-105.html

Not a hundred % sure,I think Starbucks uses a smaller pod than a regular K-cup. If your maker uses the regular sized K-kups then yes. If not sure ask star bucks if their machine uses regular sized K-cups.

Some have said these work with Verisimo Starbucks machines. Ours is new and about half the time the pods stuck inside the machine. I won't be buying more of these.

We had a Keurig previously then went to the Bosch Tassimo, and then discovered the Nescafe' while in Europe this summer. We think the Nescafe' Dolce Gusto coffees, cappuccino,and latte macchiato beats both our previous coffee makers in taste by far. Great coffee!! Enjoy!!
