Are there any drawbacks to using refillable pods?
But what about the cons? Some DIY pods can take a little work when it comes to perfecting your brew, so dependant on which brand you go for, it may require a little experimentation to get your new morning cuppa down pat. But when it comes to pre-packaged coffee pods and capsules, there’s no getting past it: you simply can’t use them more than once.We don’t recommend multiple uses of the same pod as each pod has been optimized to be used exactly once. Not doing so could result in a disappointing experience as the drink will not meet the quality taste profile for which it was designed. Thanks for your question, we hope this helps!The good thing is that with reusable K-cups, you won’t be limited to flavors from the pods. As we mentioned, you can brew any coffee you want.
