Nespresso Vertuo Line Capsule Sleeve Membrane

thingiverse

In 2019, Nespresso ceased shipping the capsule holder cardboard inserts within the Virtuo sleeves. Countless individuals have designed holders to accommodate these columnar membranes at their base, enabling users to create their own custom capsule holders compatible with most bases - including my own Nespresso model, which functions flawlessly. Two crucial aspects of this printable membrane warrant mention: Firstly, due to my printer's limitations, I was only able to print the design up to a height sufficient for four pods per side; however, users with printers capable of printing 12 inches can stretch or pull up the design to accommodate more capsules. Secondly, the 1mm thickness of the center divider is sufficient, even on my printer and likely others, given the width of the capsules. This project marked my first foray into 3D creation, and it turned out remarkably well.
