Reusable Dolce Gusto pods

Just started using these reusable pods with ground coffee from Sainsbury at the moment. Made 4 so far and only once did I manage to make it with hardly any leaks. Has anyone else been using these with more success.

It's a much cheaper way of using my Dolce Gusto machine and less waste with reusable pods. Any tips would be appreciated.

    Hmmm. The whole idea behind these pod things is consistency and convenience - so this seems counterproductive. Reusable nespresso pods were briefly a thing but never took off for the same reasoning. Why not just use a simple espresso machine that is designed to use ground coffee? Save a lot of faffing around.

    I was trying to be smart and use what I have. Did another today with a lot less leakage. Still not ideal so maybe back to the drawing board.
