Nespresso Pod Carry, Travel, Protector

thingiverse

I travel a lot and like a good coffee. We have a Nespresso at home, and we really like their coffees. There's a lot of ways to have "fancy" coffee on the road, including spending $4-5 at a coffee shop, but to keep costs down I have amassed a few things to make coffee myself in my hotel room using Nespesso pods so I don't have to carry other specialized gear. One of the issues with bringing Nespresso pods is that they're pretty lightweight and easily damaged, so I'd wind up with a couple crushed/bent pods in my bags no matter how careful I was, so I designed this portable pod case. It holds a dozen pods, three rows of four, with a flip-down lid. Notes: I printed in ABS, and the lid shrank a little and didn't fit properly in my original design so it's made oversized by about 1.5mm here and is slightly loose. Please consider printing the lid separately and fitting it properly for the material you're printing with. If you're interested in portable Nespresso making - I recommend a Nanopresso from Wacaco, and a Travel Foldable Electric Kettle from Amazon or wherever you prefer. Please don't forget to recycle your pods!
