Guatemala Organic Coffee Pods 30-pack
Guatemalan coffee is famous for its intense flavours, sweetness and delicious dark chocolate finish.
So it's a no-brainer to use one of the best-tasting Arabica coffees on the planet as a pod.
Here, we have a premium quality, specialty-grade, high-grown, single-origin, fully-traceable arabica lot from the esteemed region of Huehuetenango in Guatemala (that's a mouthful to explain).
It's the same coffee we sell to premium cafes for their "feature menu".
Up in those remote highlands of Huehuetenange, you won't find a Bunnings or Ag supply shop, so farmers don't buy nasty chemicals, pesticides or fertilizers. They don't need it. The air is thin, the altitude is high, and pests are essentially non-existent.
Fresh roasted at our Melbourne facility, the coffee beans are carefully de-gassed, ground and then converted at our in-house pod plant - one of only a few in Australia.
For 16 years, we have been roasting this sensational Guatemala fully certified Organic coffee to a delicious balance for optimal flavour, sweetness and body.
- Beautiful freshness - packed into a high-performance pod system that protects flavours and aromas. Superior to all types of compostable or recyclable pods.
- Always only 100% arabica, certified Specialty grade Organic coffees.
- A delicious coffee with sweet red cherry and dark chocolate - does it get any better?
- Buy direct from the manufacturer and save.
Do fresh roasted pods make a real difference?
Freshly roasted coffee is the only way to enjoy your brew. Stale coffee is awful, and you may be surprised to learn that most other coffee pod brands mass-produce their pods and hold them for six or more months.
Customers tell us you can drink our pod coffee black.
It's super sweet.
We think red cherry and dark chocolate make a perfect coffee experience.
An important note regarding the use of images on our website.
There are various types of pods and capsules used in Australia. Still, not all are interchangeable or compatible with every brewing equipment.
Some pods and capsules significantly differ in physical size, shape, usage and performance.
We display pictures and images of coffee pods and capsules on our product pages and throughout our website to represent the physical attributes of the Nespresso-compatible original or classic systems.
We intend to use generic images to assist buyers in obtaining similar visual cues of the product's intended purpose, e.g., a coffee pod. For example, a buyer may use a pod that looks identical to an image on our website.
Some of our pictures contain images of aluminium pods, compostable pods, recyclable pods and polymer pods. There are also a wide variety of styles, colours and shapes.
All images on our website are generic.
Pictures represent the purpose of the product as a Nespresso-compatible pod or capsule suitable for the original or classic systems.
Our pods may appear different to the images shown on our website. Such differences include colours and shape or design. The differences between the images shown on our website pages and the product you receive do not affect the product performance, taste or function.
We reserve the right to change our capsule base, lid material, and colours based on the availability of our raw materials sourced from Europe.

Arabica versus Robusta
Most coffee pods in the market contain a little or a lot of robusta (even if brands won't admit it).
Robusta generates higher levels of caffeine, but that does not also mean more flavour (caffeine is tasteless). Plain and simple - robusta is never going to taste sweet or delicious.
Instead, robusta tastes like wood, tar, leather, rubber or spice and not that's not so tasty for coffee.
Arabica generates more sweetness and delicious acidity. Indeed, this sweetness and acidity is critical for Australian coffee drinkers adding milk or dairy alternatives to their coffees.
Robusta is grown at lower altitudes where pests are rampant and wider ranges of temperature impact growing conditions. Robusta coffee farmers drown their crops in chemicals to fight off pests.
It's for this critical reason that robusta is never certified as organic.
Our pods are sweet, clean and delicious because we use 100% high-grown, certified organic arabica coffees. And the best part is you can drink them black without sugar.
Organic - a healthier option
Healthy choices should not mean paying a price premium. There is a growing market for customers who appreciate quality and purity over "mass-produced rubbish made with the lowest-cost ingredients".
Commodity-grade coffees are used extensively throughout the coffee pod industry to save costs. Unsurprisingly, those low-grade, cheap coffees also come with real health risks from farming practices relying upon high levels of chemicals - drowning in fertilizers and pesticides.
Our mission has always been to use the best quality and healthiest choices for Australian coffee pod drinkers.
myCoffeePods uses only certified Organic, high-grown specialty-grade arabica coffees that we roast with extreme precision for the best-tasting coffee pod experience.
These coffees also come with the added benefit of being much healthier.
So be kind to your body and consider organic products created with the utmost care and respect.
As one of a small handful of pod makers in Australia, we are also fully integrated - raw ingredients, roasting, grinding, packing, selling and shipping - all in-house. That means we can create a better quality pod at a more competitive price.
Why we do everything in-house
Producing coffee pods is complex and expensive. It's also why there are less than a dozen coffee pod plants in Australia - we are one of them.
At myCoffeePods, we source excellent organic raw coffees roasted on the world's most advanced platform, ensuring accurate taste and quality are consistently maintained. Our specially designed de-gas chambers preserve freshness without losing flavour, precision grinding, filling, sealing, packing, selling and shipping your order fast directly to your door, Australia-wide.
It's an entire lifecycle managed by us with nothing outsourced. It is the only way to control coffee pod quality.
Join us on a journey to better-tasting and healthier coffee pods that are also excellent value.
for perfect taste and aroma
Freshly roasted coffee is a highly volatile food ingredient. It is also challenging to keep stable at ideal or peak conditions for extended periods. When ground, fresh-roasted coffees lose vitality rapidly within 15 minutes. This deterioration or degradation begins when raw coffee is roasted and accelerates quickly after grinding.
The choice of ingredients, style of roasting, de-gassed, stored, ground, packed and sealed is only part of the solution. The physical properties of the pod or capsule base and lid materials (packaging) significantly impact the performance in protecting and preserving delicate flavours and aromas of fresh roasted and ground coffee.
Our patented flavour-lock system can achieve equivalent results to full aluminium, yet with a far lower carbon footprint. Our European-engineered and manufactured packaging materials deliver the highest barrier protection that seals in all the delicious goodness and enjoyment of great-tasting coffee.
Did you know that compostable and recyclable materials used for coffee pods don't fully protect the ground coffee inside the pod from staling? Eco-friendly materials allow aromas to "leech" out via effusion, causing rapid degradation of taste and quality.
Coffee pods have such a small dosage (around 5g) that it is fundamentally essential that every element of the process, including the pod materials, is the best available solution.
We buy the best Organic coffees roasted to perfection, and it's only logical that we should also use the best technology for our pod materials so you can enjoy the sweetest-tasting coffee pods available in Australia.
