What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Nespresso is discontinuing its paper-based, home-compostable coffee capsules, which were introduced as an alternative to its aluminum single-use capsules. The Swiss company confirmed the decision in late September, stating that aluminum remains the best material for preserving coffee quality. The initiative, which reached 14 European markets, followed three years of research and development.
