Coffee Pod Machine

A coffee pod maker is very different then your normal coffee machine. Most noticeably a coffee pod machine will take less time to brew you coffee. There will also be a smaller mess to clean up when all the coffee is made.

Coffee pods consist of a plastic rod and a filter that is inserted inside the coffee pod. You set up a coffee pod by inserting it into your coffee machine and then locking it into place. After that all you need to do is turn it on and the hot water will instantly roast your coffee beans.

There are many different types of coffee machines out there that make coffee pods. There are many popular brands such as the Philips SENSEO coffee machine and the Braun – TASSIMO machine. I am going to briefly describe these two coffee pod makers for you to give you a better idea on how these two machines work.

Braun – TASSIMO



The Braun coffee machine is very high tech and is quite unique. It uses a system that is quite different than other normal coffee makers. It can make beverages in about 60 seconds in time, and can make a wide variety of these hot beverages.

It can also hold up to 1 full liter of water. This makes these machine ideal for parties and other get togethers. It can serve many people at a time without you having to change it.

Philips SENSEO

The Philips coffee maker is a nice little machine that makes great coffee. I have talked about this coffee maker before on this blog and I get it a fairly decent review.

Overall I’d have to say that this coffee maker is just great overall. If you would like to read my review about the Philips SENSEO coffee maker you can do so by visiting here:

Senseo Coffee Pods

When it comes to deciding on what coffee pod machine is right for you, you are going to have to look at what you intend on using it for.

If you are a person who loves their coffee and cannot go without it, then it may be worth it to fork out the big bucks for a nice coffee machine. On the other hand, if you are the person who only drinks coffee occasionally then you may want to go with a cheaper machine.

You also need to do your research and read some reviews online that people have put up about certain machines.

You can also try searching around this blog for some more information about coffee machines. Although I mostly talk about coffee pods in these posts, I have mentioned many things about coffee in general as well.

You can always e-mail me or leave a comment on my posts as well. I will get back to you as soon as possible and answer any questions you may have with coffee pods and coffee pod machines.

Espresso Coffee Pods

The following post is going to be about coffee pods and espresso coffee. If you are a coffee drinker or lover then chances are you will love espresso. If you have never tried instant espresso before, this post is going to go over it a little bit in more detail.

Many people complain that instant coffee does not taste the same as regular coffee, and this is completely true. The same can be said about instant espresso. They do taste different but that does not necessarily mean it tastes better or worse.

I have met many people who like and hate instant coffee so I think it is all a personally preference. Some people are going to like it and some people are not going to like it at all.

With the fact that everybody loves things that are fast and quick nowadays, instant coffee has become quite the new standard for everyone. Coffee pods are being introduced as the tea bags equivalent and coffee lovers love it.

Since there is instant coffee being made it was only matter of time before other flavors would come out. You can now get coffee pods in many different kinds of delicious flavors. One of the most popular flavors of coffee pods is chocolate covered coffee beans. Sounds like good stuff doesn’t it?

I have written a post about flavored coffee pods if you want to read it.

Flavored Coffee Pods

I have explained some of the different kinds of flavored coffee pods here.

Espresso Coffee Pods

For those of you who have never experienced the taste of espresso, it is basically a stronger version of coffee. Many people drink it to give them a bigger kick in the morning or at night.

Since you can buy flavored coffee pods, you can also buy espresso coffee pods and instant espresso. This is favored by many people because everyone is on the go these days and no one has time to spare.

Coffee pods are great because they are easy to use, quick, and the cleanup is very easy as well. All you have to do is toss out the pod at the end of its use. They do cost a little bit but it’s not that big of a deal as you will probably be paying only a few cents per coffee.

If you have never tried espresso coffee pods, or just espresso at all then you should give it a go. It’s just like coffee but much stronger. I personally do not drink it all the time, but I do enjoy it every other day as a treat.
Espresso coffee and espresso machines are little bit more expensive than regular coffee but it’s not a huge range.

You are going to have to decide what you like better, coffee or espresso. You can also buy combination machines and coffee pod makers so if you cannot decide you can get both.

Flavored Coffee Pods

Most people are used to the traditional taste of coffee. This is the standard taste of coffee and it has been around for quite some time now. These coffee pods just taste like normal coffee. There are many different brands of this kind of coffee but they generally are not flavored. There are however some other styles of coffee that taste different than the traditional coffee taste.

There are now flavored coffee pods that you can buy for your coffee machine.

I am personally not tried these flavored coffee pods before but I have heard that they do taste fairly good. I am a person who likes the traditional taste of coffee but these new flavored pods do some a bit tempting I must say.

I have heard some pretty good reviews and things said about these new flavors. Apparently the people who try them seem to like them as well.

One of the more popular flavors is coffee covered coffee beans. This does sound pretty delicious to me. It is not something I would drink every morning but maybe a treat that I could have every now and then. There are a lot of chocolate lovers out there, so I can see how this is a crowd favorite so far. Not to mention the fact that coffee and chocolate are two both very addicting things to consume.

Many people have made their own recipes and for these homemade styles you will need to do a little bit of searching online. If you do not have the time to make your own or you just do not really care to much I would recommend just buying the flavored coffee pods. This will save you a lot of effort and time, which is basically the whole purpose and reason that coffee pods were made in the first place.

If you have never tried coffee beans before then it would probably be a good time to do so. All you need to buy is one pack and give it a go. If you do not like it you can simply throw it out and never have to deal with it again.

If you need more information on coffee pods and coffee machines then try reading some of the other posts on this blog. There is everything you need to know here, all you have to do is search around a little bit for it.

What Is a Coffee Pod?

Have you seen the word “coffee pods” around before but never quite wondered what it means? Well, this site is all about coffee pods, coffee machines and anything having to do with coffee. If you are trying to find information about coffee pods than you have come to the right place.

This page is going to give you a quick little run-down on what exactly a coffee pod is. Hopefully once you are done reading it you will understand how they are used in coffee machines a little bit better.

There is also a video that will go about showing you how to install and use coffee pods with your home coffee machines.

K-Cup

First of all, not all coffee machines take or even use coffee pods. Only certain styles and brands use coffee pods. An example of a brand that uses coffee pods is a Keurig coffee machine. These machines use little K-cups.

These little cups are designed to increase the speed at which coffee is made.

The first part that you will probably notice is the foil. This foil is supposed to sit at the top of the coffee pod. You are supposed to puncture it with the needle of the coffee brewer and let it sit there afterwords.

Filter

Underneath the foil is the coffee itself and the filter. This is where the little nozzle dumps the hot water into the coffee pod and filters it out. This is where your coffee is made to perfection.

The high pressure and hot water is supposed to brew your coffee much more faster and almost instantly then other styles of coffee makers.

After you are done with your coffee pod you are supposed to recycle it as they are not reusable at all. Coffee pods are very simple and very effective if used properly.

If you would like to see a video or watch a guide I have included one at the end of this post to help you out a little bit more.

Although coffee pods are fairly quick at making coffee, many people complain that they do not give you coffee that tastes as good as slower coffee makers. I have found that coffee pods work just as great.

It all really depends on what you intend on using it for. If you need coffee right away then a coffee pod is right for you. If you do not mind waiting a bit then you do not really need a coffee pod and you can save yourself a little bit of money as well.

Overall it all depends on how exactly intend on using your coffee machine and for what purposes. Here is a video that will show you how to install a coffee pod on a standard coffee machine.

Senseo Coffee Pods

This article is going to be about Philip Senseo coffee pods. Senseo is a very popular brand of coffee makers that many people use every day to make their coffee in the morning. Here is some information that I managed to gather about Senseo coffee pod makers.

Some of this information will be from my own personal experience and some of it is from other websites that I have gathered online. If you are looking up information about coffee pods then this page will help you out.




The Design

First of all, when you order these coffee makers they come in all sizes and colors. If you wanted to you could get a black, blue, white and many more colors.

This particular design features a double pod holder, and a single pod holder, the water holder, and some sample coffee and the instruction booklet. This is what you can expect to get in a usual coffee pod pack. The only difference is the double pod holder, as not all coffee pods will feature this.

When you first turn on your Philips coffee maker you will notice that it will start make some noise. This is when the machine is going through the initial cleaning process. Do not worry as it only takes about a minute for it to finish. After it is done cleaning you are ready for some coffee to be made.

How Is The Coffee?

The first thing that you will probably notice is that this coffee machine is a lot less nosier while making coffee then it is cleaning itself. During testing the machine was proven to make coffee at a fairly hot temperature. This means that if you like your coffee a little bit cool then you might want to wait a bit before you drink it.

This is great though because if you’re on the go, you probably won’t have time to completely sit down and drink your coffee. The hotter it comes out the hotter it stays afterwards. I personally find that the hotter the coffee the longer I can enjoy it without it going cold.

In my own personal opinion I love the coffee that this coffee maker produces. It is by far better than most other brands. The coffee comes out nice and smooth, hot, and full of flavor.

The Price

If you are a big coffee drinker then this might be a purchase that could be right for you. The only problem with this coffee pod is that it is fairly expensive to buy one. The current retail price for this coffee machine comes in at about $80.

That may be expensive for some and most people but the results that you are going to get out of it will be well worth it.

If you drink coffee almost daily and it is part of your morning ritual then I recommend that you purchase this product. This way you will be putting it to good use and the money you invest will be worth it.
