I think most of the time I am a person who cares about the environment
Last night before I bought the capsule coffee maker, I also searched the information how they deal with the capsule coffee. Although capsule coffee is small and made from aluminum, but it will be a big waste in a long term. Especially today the capsule coffee maker has become much more popular.
I am glad to find that Nespresso seems to have two capsule coffee maker stores in my city and I can take the capsules there. But I also found that in Taiwan the customers can send the capsules to Nespresso by freight collect. It will be much more convenient. I suggest Nespresso do more to encourage customers to do something good for the environment

I wish something else besides plastic could be found that breaks down naturally.

I find these things terrible for the fact that they are horrible for the environment. Here they are mostly made from plastic, but none of them are really recycled. Not only that but they are horribly expensive. I don't see any value at all in these things.

We have an old drip coffee maker that Pretty used once in a great while. (My first wife made me stop drinking coffee because the smell of it brewing made her throw up. I tried drinking coffee a few times since but no longer like the taste.)
Pretty looked at a capsule coffee maker but doesn't drink enough coffee to make buying it worth while.
I hope you enjoy your new coffee maker.

@youless It smells okay to me. I just don't like the taste anymore.

It seems so but you have to hand in the capsules to the store by yourself. It is a little bit inconvenient. Besides, it seems there are not real benefits for customers to do so. This is why I think Nespresso shall do something to change that. Even if I will be glad to have a little piece of fridge magnet from Nespresso as a reward

My daughters boyfriend has a reusable capsule and sometimes he puts regular coffee in it. Hopefully more stores will start to collect them.
