Where can I dispose of compostable coffee capsules?
You can dispose of compostable coffee capsules in several different types of composting facilities, although the exact method of disposal depends on the type of capsule and local regulations. Here are some general options:
- Industrial composting plants:
These facilities are designed to compost organic waste at higher temperatures, which speeds up the decomposition process. Most industrially compostable coffee capsules must be disposed of in such facilities because they require specific conditions that are not achieved in a typical home compost pile. - Home composting:
Some brands offer coffee capsules that you can also compost at home. These capsules break down at lower temperatures, making them suitable for home composting. However, it is important to follow the manufacturer's specific instructions to ensure that the capsules can be composted correctly. - Specialized collection points:
Some companies or municipalities offer special collection points for compostable coffee capsules. These ensure that the capsules are disposed of correctly and transported to suitable composting facilities.
It is advisable to check with your local waste management service or directly with the manufacturer of the capsules to find out what disposal options are available in your area. This will ensure that the capsules are disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner and are actually composted rather than ending up in a landfill.

Enjoy the characteristics of a lungo
An excellent Lungo should provide enjoyment with these characteristics due to the conditions of the brewing process and the raw materials used:
- Look forward to a voluminous pleasure.
- The aroma of a typical lungo will seem milder to you than that of a strong espresso.
- The flavour develops despite the lower intensity because the Lungo is prepared with more water.
The Lungo is traditionally served in slightly larger cups. You can refine it with milk and sugar according to your individual preferences. Discover many tips and wonderful recipes in our blog.
