Haven't tried with mine our of fear some grounds may come loose and end up in the machines water spout system but the company does have a recycling program that is super easy which is not a common practice for pod companies

You cannot use the reusable pod on this model I believe however when you order the pods through Nespresso they provide a mailable recycle bag to send the pods back to be recycled which we love!!!

Yes, look up "SEALPOD Reuseable Nespresso Capsules". They do have foil tape tops. But foil is recyclable.

I use Peet's capsules. They're single use, but I bought a recycling sleeve from them for $2. Peet's uses foil capsules, so to them it's like recycling an aluminum can after emptying out the used grounds into a compost pile. There's no plastic in their capsules at all.

I may get a SEALPOD eventually, but I'll have to also buy a burr grinder to get really consistent, fine-ground coffee for espresso.

Yes, you have to make or buy your own customizable ones of course, but you definitely can do it.

Not that I know but you can recycle them. Check the Nespresso website for locations
