How to compost pods
Our pods are certified for commercial composting, where they'll take six weeks to break down in a standardised certified system. Whilst they will break down in home compost, this will take longer, depending on factors like the size and makeup of your compost heap, the temperature and other conditions. Our pods will still break down if they end up in a land-fill system but will take a bit longer.
Check with your local council for their compost guidelines.

World Barista Champion and Ozone Coffee’s Head of Research and Development, Dale Harris, wanted to create an at-home coffee capsule experience that is as close as possible to a fresh morning coffee from one of our eateries. After months of testing, development and tweaks, Dale and the team have done it. We took some time to chat to him and learn more about the journey to pods, read the full story here
Flavio Paulino de Costa is the 5th generation of his family to be involved in coffee production and is a superb agronomist. We met him through his work with other farms but were very excited to be able to get coffee from his farm Nova Aliança, located in the well renowned coffee growing region of Minas Gerais, Brazil.
With a devotion to long-term sustainability, Flavio has carefully organised the farm with planted native trees and fruit trees to promote biodiversity, as well as producing fertilisers from the farm waste. This attention to detail carries through in the care of their plants, with careful measuring of many variables to assess plant health used to guide pruning, planting and harvesting.
FAQs
Can I use Ozone Coffee Pods in my machine?
Yes, Ozone Coffee Pods are compatible with any machine that accepts the Original style Nespresso® capsules. Please note; they are not compatible with the Vertuo-style machines.
What do I do with the used coffee capsules?
Our coffee pods are 100% plastic-free capsules and can be added to your food-waste for composting in commercial facilities. Check with your local council on their food-waste compost and collection guidelines. If your local council does not accept in your food waste collection, they will break down naturally as compost in your usual waste collection.
Can I recycle the coffee pod packaging?
Yes - our pod packaging is FSC accredited paper that is certified recyclable.
How long do the coffee pods last?
Our pods will taste great if stored in a cool dry place for 12 months from their packing date.
How do I brew these coffee pods best?
Most Nespresso® machines come with two brew settings, one for a short/intense shot, and one for a longer brew.
Whilst our pods can make good coffee drinks with these two options, they can be made even better with a small adjustment to the water quantity, which you can program by following instructions within your machine’s manual.
Most machines are programmable by holding the brew button down whilst brewing and releasing when your desired quantity is achieved. To be super geeky (and match how we refine our pod machines), you can do this with scales. We aim for a 28-30g pod weight for a great textured and intense espresso. A more traditional filter style coffee can be achieved by brewing to a 100g weight with your long brew button.
How do these differ from supermarket brands?
Unlike some supermarket brands, we use premium, single origin specialty coffee, roasted in London to Ozone Coffee’s high quality assessment standards.
Our pods will be more expensive than many others available on the market because of the investment in a quality ingredient that has been responsibly sourced.
