CoffeeB is a capsule-free coffee system that uses compostable coffee balls wrapped in a plant-based film, helping to eliminate the 100,000 tonnes of plastic and aluminium capsule waste generated by the capsule coffee industry every year. Launched in September 2022, the machine's modular design facilitates repairs, ensuring its longevity. Migros, the Swiss company behind the revolutionary system, says CoffeeB is "the greatest product innovation" in its history – a bold statement, and one we'd be inclined to agree with if it wasn't for the plastic-coated secondary packaging. Despite this, Migros' novel solution is the perfect blend of functional, disruptive, and sustainable, delivering the ultimate zero-waste coffee experience that even true coffee aficionados wouldn't snub.
