I love love LOVE the Aldi coffee capsules, the flavours are rich, the aromas make my mouth water and despite a problem with the coffee machine (capsules wouldn’t always get pierced properly, resulting in it popping out and sometimes spraying us with hot water and making a mess but replaced by Aldi and no problems since) I highly recommend these to everyone!

A friend of mine will not drink “regular” coffee – has to be specially brewed under a full moon at midnight using fresh water from a himalayan spring type person. So when she came around the other day, she at first refused a coffee, until I convinced her I had something really special.
I kept her out of the kitchen, and made a expressi coffee for her.
She loved it! After she had had 2 cups, I confessed it was Aldi’s. At first she was horrified, but finally admitted she enjoyed it, and would look at getting her own!

I saved so much money over Christmas with this wonderful coffee machine. Its only a bit over the price of one cup of café coffee to buy an entire box of the ADLI coffee pods approx. 16 pods to a box. I had heaps of family visit over Christmas and they are all big coffee drinkers. usually we would all go down town for coffee. instead we stayed home and enjoyed the expressi coffee.

I would like to thank the Mouths of Mums team as well as the team at Aldi Expressi once again for selecting me to be part of this review! It was very exciting to be chosen.
This is the second part of my review, this time for the Aldi Expressi La Spezia.
Before trying Expressi La Spezia, my favourite Aldi Expressi was Torino which is also an intensity number eleven. Both coffees are truly great tasting brews. There definitely is something a little different with the new Expressi La Spezia however, it is a rich, dark roasted coffee with sweet, floral and spicy notes and I must say it is a definite party pleaser.
Over the holiday season I have served it to all of my guests and had nothing but compliments about how delicious it not only smells but tastes.
With one capsule I am able to get four cups of coffee depending on each individuals taste preference. Which means that one box does go a very long way!
At one of my parties my guests were all trying to work out exactly how to pronounce the name of this particular coffee, and if anyone else finds themselves in the same situation I hope you find this link helpful http://youtu.be/AeubOhCHuJg
For those counting calories, you will be pleased to note that the Expressi La Spezia contains only 32 calories which is extremely easy to incorporate into most diets or eating plans.
With Expressi La Spezia you truly do get the café taste experience brought to the comfort of your own home. I will be continuing to purchase these capsules as I know they are perfect not just for myself but also for when I am entertaining.
Thank you once again for this wonderful opportunity to review such a fantastic product!

I loved the aldi trial I received it was beautiful and delicious! I will definitely recommend this product to all of my family and friends, I also brought my boyfriend a coffee machine from aldis because he also loved the samples I received. I have now invested in multiple packs of different flavors and I am enjoying every single one that I try.

I love my Aldi Expressi Machine and I’ve actually recommended it to several friends. The new La Spezia capsules are fantastic, rich and intense with a full flavour that is creamy and luxurious. I usually use the no.5 Perugia while my husband prefers the no.9 Reggio but we were both very impressed with La Spezia, it left no bitter aftertaste as some stronger varieties can and I’ve already purchased more at my local store.

I was so pleasantly surprised how good this product was. I love the range of strengths for the coffee plus the flavour choices. It’s really easy to use and I even taught my technically challenged mother to use it. Compared to similar products on the market,Aldi Expressi is much more affordable without compromising on taste/quality.

A great tasting, quick alternative to instant coffee
The expressi pods are the closest thing you’ll get to a cafe quality coffee in our house. With a new baby time is at a premium So the one touch operation of the machine is awesome. Also I drink decaf now that I’m breastfeeding and the expressi version means I can almost trick myself into thinking I’m drinking real coffee because it’s so tasty.

We previously had a Gaggia espresso machine however it was a hand me down from my dad and broke down after a little while. We had it fixed but it broke again so we decided to dump it and get an Aldi Expressi machine.
This was the best decision we ever made!
The machine is relatively cheap and the capsules are also cheap when compared to buying a takeaway coffee. Aldi have a large range of coffee, latte and hot chocolate pods to cater to all tastes! The coffee is not quite up to the standard of a cafe coffee but it is 100 times better than an instant!
The coffee is tasty and gives you a good caffeine hit! It is quick and easy to use the machine. Highly recommended!

After reading the reviews on Mom’s by the community members that reviewed Aldi Expressi; I have decided to go to Aldi and purchase Aldi Expressi. I love coffee and hot chocolate and this sounds perfect for our household with a good range of flavours and products. Looking forward to shopping. Love coffee and biscuits.

It’s an average product and well priced. I still prefer Nespresso as the flavours are more bold and it has a better crema. I have tried the flavoured Hot White Choc macadamia and will never touch that again. It’s horrible on it’s own and with coffee. The normal coffee comes in a great range and definitely taste better than instant coffee.

I am not a coffee drinker but friends who are have enjoyed the Aldi expression coffees that I have made for them. Quick and very easy to use and can be paired up nicely with an Aldi milk frothed to turn your coffee into a flat white or latte. I love the wide range of hot chocolate flavours, with chocolate orange being my favourite. I also love the chai latte. I highly recommend the Aldi Expressi, so easy to use and to clean. The shape is quite slim line, chic and stylish and should fit nicely on your kitchen bench.
Aldi express capsules is one of the regular capsules which i buy and Used it when I require really good quality of coffee at home and serve it for my friends and they also love it.I love this Expressi Hot chocolate one as I am a chocolate lover, Great value for money and quality of the coffee is un beatable, I have recommended to some of my friends and they really love it too. I purchase it on regular basis and store it in my pantry. The strength of the coffee is perfect for my taste buds

I can only really comment on the chocolate ones as I am not a coffee drinker. I think they are nice but they are not near the same as getting a nice coffee shop hot chocolate. My husband has tried the coffee ones and whilst he is not particularly keen to have one of these at home (he is particularly fussy with his coffee) he thinks they are fine for when you are visiting.

Aldi expressi is a great value for money for people who need their coffee hit everyday but can’t afford to splurge $4 per coffee everyday. It’s great quality for capsule coffee at home and the hot chocolate is surprisingly good as well!

I’m a big hot chocolate fan and my partner’s a daily coffee drinker, but we didn’t want to spend lots of money on the expensive brand coffee machines. The Aldi model was a good option because it’s cheap, plus the pods are cheap, and easy to get. We’d held off until several relatives bought one and recommended it!
My partner really liked the La Spezia, and I could drink the rich hot chocolate all day long!

This was the first pod machine I have actually brought although I have tried several different brands at the homes of friends and family. I’m not a coffee drinker but hubby really wanted so I brought one from ALDI for his birthday after good reviews from some friends. The price is a great starting point and the quality of the machine is excellent for an entry level machine like this. I like that it does hot chocolate for me – I refused to buy a Nespresso when I was told you can’t get chocolate pods. The pods are good value and I don’t have to worry about voiding a warranty with cheap pods because these are the ones it was designed for. So many flavours everyone is bound to find a strength that suits them. Highly recommend this machine to anyone.

We have the Aldi coffee machine at our office & I think its great ! Perfcet for when you don’t want to brew a whole pot of coffee – just a single serve ! The range of coffees available it also fabulous – I especially like the “Chai” ! They are also very reasonably priced compared to other coffee maker capsules – I would highly recommend this product to anyone !

EXPRESSI RICH HOT CHOCOLATE is divine! It tastes just like the hot chocolate you buy at cafes with its rich, chocolatey flavour. It is a bit strong but I guess you can add more water or milk to lessen it. I am quite amazed that Aldi continues to come out with really nice products that are affordable. Definately a fan of this one and will buy again.

Convenient and compact. I especially love the fact that I can now make a tasty cafe style hot chocolate and coffee at home at a fraction of the price sold in cafés. It’s mildly rich but definitely tasty and doesn’t leave a grainy tasty in your mouth. It’s smooth and not over hot to the point the chocolate tastes burnt. Aldi’s you never cease to amaze me with your products.

Having tried a few of Aldi’s lines I thought I’d try the coffee capsules, they were delicious although the problem with using pods is that you are resulting in more rubbish but I found a company that recycles the pods,Awesome! They were yummy, and much more cheaper then a cafe coffee but taste better at home,

I found it to be good but honestly, it isn’t much better than instant and because every pod is single use it creates a lot of rubbish. Ended up sending it to hubby’s work as we weren’t really using it.

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know
Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!
But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier).
You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!
Pack Smart, Not Big
Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?
Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and
A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
A dry bag for clothes
A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
A pop-up tent for changing
Waterproof phone case
Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!
“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member
Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts
It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:
Swimming between the flags at the beach
Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel.
Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.
That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!
Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier
The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.
Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.
Prep & Time It Perfectly
There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.
“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member
Pack Smart Snacks
Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:
Chopped fruit
Crackers
Boiled eggs
Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight
“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member
A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!
You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!
Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
