Europe: Melitta MyCup Single Serve Coffee Machine with Odd Shaped Coffee Pods
When we first reported about the Melitta MyCup coffee maker, we were pretty sure the coffee pods were square. Now our good friend in Europe from Cafepods has sent word of new pictures and info on this new single serve coffee maker.
From these new pictures the coffee pods look to be of an even odder shape that's really more functional. Our first thoughts are - this shape in a coffee pod would most likely get a really good seal because of the larger lip that would seat better in the pod holder. Often times with round pods, you get water that goes right by the any edge that isn't already wet or seated down and the amount of edge varies from pod to pod as well. We like the look of the machine and hope Melitta starts to bring some of this innovation over to the US market.

Looked at the translated website info. and at the very top of the page there is a link. This link sends you to a page with a FAQ about how this machine is being discontinued (or at least that is what it appears to be, the translation isn't perfect). It is a shame because the machine does look pretty cool.
