Espresso Coffee Club

Found a new way to purchase coffee for my Nespresso machine - from the Espresso Coffee Club. They are a new online retailer of coffee pods that work in Nespresso machines, and they have 6 blends - Decafeinato, Lungo, Aromtico, Italiano, Milano and Forza Roma. Best of all these capsules now sell for £2.50, 50p cheaper than a sleeve of Nespresso Capsules and for each pack you purchase you get 10 points. Once you have 200 points you can get a free pack of capsules!

Received my 2nd order from them today, and along with the 4 boxes of capsules I ordered, I got a sample of each of their capsules to try, which is great as it will help me decide if any of the other coffees, besides the ones I ordered - Lungo and Milano -  are any good.

Hopefully once they start getting loads of customers, they increase the coffee blends they sell, and maybe sell other Nespresso accessories.

Daddy Cool Musical in Mallorca



Great to see that the Daddy Cool Musical is being performed on the holiday island of Mallorca this summer. Perhaps if this is successful it will return to the UK, as it is a great musical with a brilliant story line and some fantastic songs, such as Sunny, One Way Ticket, Be My Lover, I Can't Stand The Rain and Brown Girl In The Ring.

Fairtrade comes to Nespresso

Great to see that the Ethical Coffee Company has developed 2 new Fairtrade coffee for the Nespresso machine - Lungo and Inca Soave. It is about time that Fairtrade certification came to coffee for a coffee machine, as it means the coffee has produced to international Fairtrade standards, and the people growing the coffee have been paid a decent wage.

Only problem with these capsules is that they are not yet on sale throughout the whole of Europe, which is a shame, as I am sure that there are many Nespresso owners who would welcome the chance to purchase an Ethical capsule for their machines.

Hopefully the time will come when Nespresso switches to a more ethical way of obtaining coffee for it's capsules, perhaps even going as far as obtaining Fairtrade certification for them!
