## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many capsules in this listing please? There are contradicting details in the description - 18 capsules in each set but 6 sets! Thanks!**
A: Hi, depends on the set you are buying . But in every packet there are 18 capsules, so if it’s a set of 6 packets will be 108 in total.

**Q: With which brand of coffee maker are the capsules compatible?**
A: Francis Francis  machine

**Q: do Illy have pods that fit Dulce Gusto machines?**
A: No. Only iPerespresso pods can be used.

**Q: Is this for 6 packets (x18) as it no longer states this on the description?**
A: This IS NOT for 6 packets. If you look at the unit price it says the 6 pack costs per unit (around £0.40) ,but they ship you only one pack so it is over £2! This is a rip off, buy it so where else, a single pack should be less than £8 elsewhere.

Very nice coffee. Good taste, nice aroma. Feels fresh. Only issue is use of plastic - guess nothing much can be done unless I change my old illy machine.
