Default coffee + airport checks

so when i come over to Oz in August, i will be bringing my beloved espresso machine,

am i going to have issues bringing this in? it will have been cleaned to with in an inch of its life, but i will also be bringing 'coffee capsuals' which as you might have guessed contain ground coffee - am i going to get a full cavity search () if i attempt to bring these with me?!

please let me know!

declare it and you will be fine.

What sort of machine do you have? Are the capsuals available in OZ? As a guess, bring plenty, everything in OZ is dearer.

Shouldn't have a problem. We brought our Tassimo machine with us but unfortunately can't get the pods over here. My mum sends them out but the boxes hold both coffee and milk pods (for the cappuccino amd macchiato) and the milk pods get confiscated not the same adding cream but better then nothing x

This will teach you for not drinking black coffee.

The nespresso capsules are around 70 cents a shot here.You should have no problem getting them when your supply has dried up.
