There’s 1g of aluminium waste ……. (13g in a drinks can ) ….. Once coffee grounds are removed then the aluminium is easily recycled .
The recycling element is clearly important , but personally can’t help feeling that it’s a heightened perception of waste by the fact that emptying the machine when full of the capsules looks like a lot.
I”m not saying the consideration is wrong, but thinking about it , most compatible capsules are plastic, and obviously smaller and with much less waste than say yoghurt pots , milk cartons, orange juice cartons , butter containers , plastic food wrappers etc etc.
Mrs G has been laid up a while following an operation so I’ve been head cook and bottle washer and related to this I guess I must admit I noted to myself just the other day how much waste packaging even just two of us generate from food etc……. It certainly is an issue. Perhaps Mr Muller ought to introduce a collection for his empty yoghurt pots too lol
