Sorry I haven't done the research but how much do Nespresso pods cost in the USA?
Also, I'm figuring out whether I can order some online and get them delivered to my hotel - got an upcoming trip to Washington DC.
I drink a lot of Nespresso these days. I have a machine in my office and I consume 2 pods a day on average.
0:30 mark of this video, you see my small machine, perfect for individual use.
PS - Oh! I think the nespresso capsules in the USA are about the same price as in Singapore, so no point me getting them in the USA. The capsules are significantly cheaper in Europe.

Refillable Nespresso Pods
Does anyone have a recommendation for a refillable Nespresso Pod? My mom recently retired and would like to travel with her machine (inspired by Swissaire here). She will be going on a few longer trips that may not include larger cities where there is a Nespresso Boutique (or a Nespresso in that country) and carrying a large stack of sleeves might not be the best option for her.
I just bought her a Pixie Clips unit for her travels and am making a carrying case for it as the original Nespresso one is sold out.

I got an Inissia open box for $50 on eBay and found that this Lewis & Clark packing cube is just the right size when expanded for putting in my bag: http://amzn.to/2fBgiQq
I don't travel long enough to worry about a refillable capsule, but it's worth noting that you can buy a sleeve at a time from Amazon for about a 30% markup.

Prices of Nespresso pods were reduced in Singapore by about 30% late last year. We started drinking more. On a recent trip to the UK, we saw a Lattissima machine was on sale at ARGOS and we brought one back to Singapore with us. (Singapore, being an ex-British colony, has the same power supply).
Very happy with my new machine. Those Nespresso Recipe glasses fit nicely too.

Does anyone have an experience with the Nespresso Essenza Mini Piano , for original capsules? It's their newest smallest machine. I had bought my mum a Nespresso Pixie Clips 2 years back for Christmas for her travels. She has requested the newest smallest version for Christmas this year because it's lighter (1.6 lbs) and smaller. The version she is interested in is the rectangular one not the triangular one.
Does anyone have experience with the new model both at home and on the road? I've read some conflicting reviews online.

If anyone is looking for a second machine, Lord & Taylor has the Inissia on sale for US$51.97 It's not as small nor light as the new Piano but it's a sturdy machine.

I apologize if this question is answered in the previous 200+ posts...
We are not coffee drinkers - at all. However, when we moved to Arizona and bought a big house, we were planning on lots of visitors from the great nortth. So, we bought a Nespresso machine for our coffee drinking friends and relatives. We had a few visitors and then the pandemic. Now, however, "reservations" are picking up again.
Here is the question. All that coffee we bought is now past the "best by" date (end of 2020). Is it still good or do we need to buy new stuff?
