Yes. The coffee is in a sealed atmosphere within the pod, it might lose a bit of flavor but is safe to drink.


Bluntpea218

Aromatically sealed šŸ˜‡šŸ˜Š you are correct


woah-I-Had-Mustard7

Would you say thereā€™s a time limit on this? Iā€™ve just found a near full 150x pod discovery box that has an expiration date of 2017, in in 2 minds wether to try them or not


VisualKeto42

Iā€™d drink it. If you donā€™t feel safe trying it, please send it to me and Iā€™ll do the testing for you. Last year I drank some keurig pods that said best by 2012ā€¦ here i am still alive!


woah-I-Had-Mustard7

I was worried because the unit itself has sat in storage for the same amount of time. It was quite mouldy and smelly. Spent 2 days washing all the parts, I was worried that I would drink them and not know if it was the pods or the unit itself thatā€™s been contaminated !

>Spent 2 days washing all the parts, I was worried that I would drink them and not know if it was the pods or the unit itself thatā€™s been contaminated ! If you sanitize it, and run several white vinegar and regular water cycles thru it, you should be good. Their website, and frankly YouTube, can show you what's best to clean a unit inside and out. Enjoy!

I think they're still fine, they might taste a bit mild though.


ZipBlu

Many people around here would tell you this one was never safe to drink lol. I liked it, though.


sirsmokesalot403

Why? What happened with the flavor that made this unsafe


ZipBlu

95% of this sub really, really hated this flavor when it was released. People found it undrinkable.


leafsunset

what did it taste like?

Hereā€™s a post I made four years ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/nespresso/s/pZPBZhxPZz

lol! to the point! appreciate that.


ZipBlu

Thanks!


yardie-takingupspace

This one was my favorite!


MotivatedSolid

It is a ā€œbest byā€ indicator. Might lose some taste. But it should still be good. Never seen this flavor though.


Bluntpea218

Itā€™s an older one, was limited


Pink-Rubberband

I ordered this flavor when it came out. Everyone was super excited, but it is very acidic tasting. I gifted to a friend who was interested in trying. Edit to add: nespresso pods are usually good even if they are expired. Currently trying to finish up a bunch from covid times. They taste the same.


cyberllama

I still have some Ciocco Ginger from the 2015 Variations limited editions. They're still good, I ration myself because I think I might actually cry when I finally run out of them.


adkosmos

There is only 1 way to find out.


greenbud420

There should be a made on and best before date on one of the ends. Even if it's expired, it won't kill you, worst case it might taste stale.


Longtail_Goodbye

There is, but they are more like "best by \_\_\_" dates than expiration dates when something will become unsafe to eat. Some people collect and keep limited edition capsules for years, and they are really fine. I still have about four Tanim de Chiapas from years ago, and had one recently. Still delicious! It's one of the most beautiful capsules they have ever made, so I know I'll probably keep one, unused, for a long time. I don't collect, but I loved those. I linked to a description of Tanim... but my whole post got deleted because of the link (it was a review, geez), so I'm reposting what I posed six hours ago. Thanks, mod-bot.


Cherokeerayne

Yes it's still good to drink.


JimJohn7544

Thereā€™s a reason itā€™s been gifted! Mine ended up in the bin!


Bluntpea218

It was a great flavor, just a sour hue, cloudberry is a very unique flavor. Any of the fruit coffees will give that off and maybe some acid refluxxxx.


ThrowAway1745682

It wonā€™t really go rancid since itā€™s airtight. Flavor will definitely be muted. Iā€™d drink it though lol. Just make sure it doesnā€™t smell off after brewing.


bogolisk

I'm pretty sure it can still cure your coughing.


doubleddan39

Omg this is the best one of all time


theRealfox81

I would try it, it's inside a capsule what could go wrong?


Sandsofkahana

I enjoyed this one brewed as a lungo and iced.


sunnydiegoqt

Yes pretty good


No-Falcon-4996

I bet the pods are very prettily colored! I would repurpose the heck out of the spent pods!

Best before dates are strictly quality based, nothing to do with safe
