Stock up on these GHI-approved coffee pods while they're in the Amazon Prime Day sale
Buy in bulk and save
Those who love their coffee will know that it can be tricky to find great quality pods at a great price — but luckily for us, some of our favourite coffee brands are taking part in Amazon Prime Day this week.
The sale is running until midnight tomorrow (17th July) and includes discounts on everything from beauty luxuries to household appliances and essentials, but it's also a great time to stock up on the things we buy all the time and get them in bulk for less.
The best Amazon Prime Day coffee pod deals
There are plenty of coffee capsules on Amazon, so it can be tricky to know which ones to go for — especially when the deals are tempting and you're buying in bulk. So we're sticking to what we know and love; here are the top-rated, best-performing coffee pods according to the GHI.
illy's medium blend scored 81/100 with our testers, earning the vote for best classic espresso. Panellists thought that these pods produced coffee much like that of 'a top-quality professional machine' — and that's not easy to do.
They enjoyed the coffee's creamy caramel taste — not too acidic or bitter — and warming coffee aroma. We'll welcome that into our Sunday mornings, no problem.
These pods are also compostable, so you can pop them into your recycling bin or compost heap.
If you love the taste and smell of coffee but don't need the caffeine — or perhaps limit your intake to just one or two cups of the heavy stuff — these are our favourite decaf pods.
You won't miss out on any flavour here; according to our panel results, "you'd never know [it's] decaf."
Compatible with your Nespresso machine, the capsules are 100% recyclable.
'Ristretto' essentially means a shorter, stronger espresso shot — and if that's your bag, we love these pods for their hazelnut notes.
You'll find a chocolatey, nutty rich blend that packs a real punch for an intense, rich flavour (and caffeine hit!).
Tonight, you can get your hands on 100 capsules for £22.
