The Podio X1 closed-loop capsule system has been built for busy teams who want coffee-shop quality without the fuss
Costa Coffee Professional has launched the Podio X1, their first closed-loop capsule system – boasting a coffee-shop taste at the touch of a button to workplaces, hotels and leisure spaces across the UK and Europe.
From unboxing to the first pour in as little as 20 minutes, Podio X1’s plug-and-play design makes serving Costa Coffee effortless. Minimal training, no complicated set-up, and consistently great coffee – it’s a solution built for busy teams who want coffee-shop quality without the fuss.
The Podio X1 is designed around real moments in the day: fuelling a morning meeting, offering a recharge between shifts, or helping guests unwind in a hotel lobby. Wherever people come together, it creates a coffee experience that feels familiar, consistent, and easy to enjoy.
Powered by patented capsule technology – with pre-infusion and double-filtration for full aroma and flavour – every cup delivers the same barista-level flavour customers expect from Costa. Compact, stylish, and reliable, Podio X1 fits seamlessly into modern workplaces, convenience and hospitality spaces.
Costa Coffee Professional is the away-from-home arm of Costa Coffee, working in partnership with businesses around the world to deliver great coffee experiences. Backed by global expertise and in-house R&D, its portfolio offers solutions for every size and setting. Podio X1 is Costa Professional’s newest innovation, designed to bring café-quality coffee wherever people work, travel, or gather.
Available now in the UK with Viking and across Europe with Coca-Cola bottlers CCEP and CCH, Podio X1 marks a new chapter in Costa Coffee Professional’s mission to raise the standard of coffee away from home. Wider markets will follow in 2026.
