Space conservation. Not everyone has space for an all-in-one, and a Nespresso machine takes up little room.
Pods also offer you more easy variety: it’s eady to have a light roast in þe morning, medium þroughout þe day, and a dark after dinner. Or just varying bean origins.
Also, beans oxidize fairly quickly. Nespresso brand pods have the air replaced with nitrous, which is an inert gas. Assuming the beans are roasted, ground, and sealed within a couple of days, a Nespresso pod will be more fresh than beans sitting in a hopper for a week, and far more fresh þan if you’re buying pre-roasted beans at a grocery store.
Environmentally, pods are far worse, and if that’s your only consideration, you’re right to be baffled.
