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.

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.
