Nespresso Sealpod filling station

Description

Since we regularly use Nespresso, we decided to use reusable Sealpod capsules alongside classic pods. When I started using Sealpod, I found filling the capsules to be very impractical and slow, so I decided to design a filling station. The station is divided into several parts.

Bottom section: This serves as the base where empty capsules are placed.

Top holder: After placing the empty capsules, a holder goes on top. The holder is divided into two parts—a lid and a guide rail—which I recommend gluing together. Doors slide int the guide rail, but they should not be glued to the rail!

After assembling the station, I grind the coffee. For me, it works out to 4g per pod, but it always depends on the type of coffee, type of roasting and grind size. The just pour coffee on top

Use a spatula to distribute the coffee evenly so that each pod is filled to the brim.

Hold the entire filling station and gently tap it on a table a few times to help the coffee settle. Afterward, use the spatula again to spread any remaining coffee to ensure the pods are full to the brim. If there is excess coffee on top, simply lift the doors and use the spatula to remove the extra coffee.

Next step, place the top part off and tamp the coffee. You can use a large, chunky tamper for tamp all the pods at once, or tamp each pod individually with a smaller tamper. There are 2 types of small tampers and i prefer lower one

you don’t want to fill all six pods, you can use covers to block the empty slots where there are no pods.

Finally, apply an aluminum seal to each pod, and you’re done!
 

I hope this filling station will also be useful to others! 😊

<<<<UPDATES>>>>

v2 remake pod cover to be more tighter so parts hold better together 

• tighter part - pod cover
  • tighter version hold pretty strong
  • normal version is tighter then original version
• make fillet for pod cover so it will be easier to put it on pod holder when it is tighter, now
