Vittoria Capsules

This brand has a issue with not piercing the top for brewing (seems the issue is fixed) – I have had several issues with these, mainly the top aluminium cover does not get pierced properly, so you get mostly water in the cup, and the coffee comes out of the BACK of the capsule, making a mess inside your machine. The secondary issue, is even when you get a batch that DOES work, the coffee is weak, nowhere near a 14 strength. UPDATE: We… Read more

have avoided the Gold Espresso problematic ones, and recently we tried the Black Valley 15, and the Valentina 13, as a double-shot, and these new ones DO pierce just fine, AND give a nice strong brew. I like a double espresso, wife likes an espresso + ristretto, with frothed milk.

How is this product even sold as 'coffee' – This is my first ever product review as I'm usually too lazy to complain if a product doesn't meet expectations or if its good value, I just simply keep buying it. But these muddy-water Vittoria pods are so terrible and a rip off that I felt I had to get off my freckle and warn others (if you like actual coffee) to steer clear. Usually use D'or… Read more

pods but the local supermarket had run out. Bought these Vittoria 'Italian' capsules, never been more disappointed or caffeine-deprived. Almost nothing but water flows out of them.

New Vittoria Coffee Capsules – I bought the Vittoria Zimbabwe capsules and some of their other new ones for my Nespresso machine. I put a Zimbabwe capsule in but only a few drips came out so I used a L'Or capsule and it worked fine. The same thing happened when I tried a Vittoria Zimbabwe capsule - again only one or two drips. I really like Vittoria coffee but I will not be… Read more

buying any more of their capsules. They are hopeless. A waste of money. I would give it no star if I could. They just do not work.

new Vittoria coffee pod range is not compatible with the Breville Nespresso machines – My husband and I have been using Vittoria Mountain Grown coffee pods in our Breville Nespresso machine for a couple of years now with no problems whatsoever. Last week I saw the new range at Woolworths and bought the Zimbabwe and Italian pods to try. Neither work. They fit the machine but the grind must be different as only a few drops comes out… Read more

of the machine. We tried 4 pods from each box with the same result. I must stress we are using the same machine we have always used and the Vittoria Mountain Grown individually wrapped pods in the old style packaging large square box work well in the machine as do L'or pods. So it is definitely a problem with the new Vittoria pods which unfortunately appear no longer compatible with the Nespresso machine.

These should be a crime – I am so offended by the taste of this coffee. One pod made with only 40mls of milk still produced a watery dirty coffee taste. They taste like you have tried to use a coffee pod twice. Out of all coffee pods on the market, these are the worst I've tried. Even instant coffee is better. I don't understand how they are justified to be selling on… Read more

our supermarket shelves. They are truly horrible with no coffee taste. Dont waste your money, you will be mortified. I would give no stars if there was an option to.
