For the storage of Dolce Gusto capsules. Capacity: 3 x 12 capsules. Individually packaged coffee portions. Capsules have been manufactured by Nestlé since 1970 and were patented in 1976. Today, there are many different capsule systems, each more or less widespread and mostly limited to a specific brand of coffee machines. They typically contain the amount of coffee grounds for one cup and are therefore considered single-use products. To use capsules, you need a special machine. Aside from the additional waste and packaging material, capsules offer many advantages, especially for occasional coffee drinkers. You can store your capsules for a long time and prepare your coffee quickly and easily.
