Ah, the old razor/blade business model, as perfected in inkjet printers.
Vittoria beans sell for about $20/kg if you stock up on the regular specials.
Capsules $100/kg. (Same as Nespresso - you'd think they'd undercut a little.)
So one double-shot per day, $500/year in capsules vs $100 for the beans.
A couple of hours in time saved.Maybe buy one for the in-laws, so I don't have to drink instant when we visit :)

Yes, there are a few companies selling refillable pods
We bought these ones.

The missus still buys the pods for the convenience factor.
cool, but where can I find something like that for my new Dolce Gusto Genio (from that recent Target deal)??
Is it possible to make my own pods?
Sure, but you'll want a machine to do it, or it defeats the purpose of this device - ie convenience.
Here is one:

I'm still waiting for a consumer version, that will grind and package 1kg of beans at a time.
Not sure about pods included though but also available here.

Free postage for orders over $70 So you'd have to purchase 4 packs of pods to make it worthwhile.
These are the ones that are used by the Peppers Resort chain.
