Do ESE pods make good espresso?
ESE pods offer a robust and authentic espresso experience that’s comparable to what you would expect from a coffee made in the traditional way.

Are ESE pods better than Nespresso?
There are many different types of coffee capsules available on the market other than ESE & Senseo pods, such as Nespresso, Tassimo, and Dolce Gusta. In terms of price and taste, there is a premium price to be paid on most capsule systems, and we consider the flavour of coffee produced from an ESE pod to be far better. ESE pods are typically 44mm in diameter and contain seven grams of coffee.ESE stands for Easy Serving Espresso. Developed in the 1970s, these pods were designed to simplify the espresso-making process. Unlike Nespresso® or Keurig® pods, ESE pods are made from natural paper filters and filled with fresh ground coffee—no plastic, no foil, and no wasteful packaging.ESE pods are not for coffee pod machines This does cause some confusion among people who own Nespresso, Dolce Gusto, or Tassimo machines, for example, and it does seem a bit odd that these things are referred to as pods, given they’re not for coffee pod machines.ESE pods can be purchased from larger supermarkets, specialist coffee shops, and at various online retailers.Our Easy Serving Espresso (ESE) pods are packaged in an oxygen-free environment ensuring each cup is as fresh as possible for your drinking pleasure!

What coffee works best for espresso?
While dark roasts are traditional for espresso, offering bold and robust flavors, medium roasts are also popular. They provide a balanced profile that highlights both the coffee’s inherent flavors and the roasting process. Light roasts, though less common, can produce unique espressos with more complex flavor notes. Any coffee from any origin can, and is, used to make espresso. Differences of origin, species, and roast level, are all factors that affect the quality of espresso. IMO, the best coffee for espresso is 100% Arabica, freshly roasted (within 24 hours), with a medium to medium/dark roast level.You can achieve almost identical flavor profiles to an espresso in a Nespresso. They won’t be as rich and deep as a fresh espresso would be, but they’ll come close. Plus, you can treat an ‘espresso’ made in a Nespresso like you would a shot.Starbucks® by Nespresso® Original Line For those seeking delicious Starbucks® espresso breaks at home, the Original Line collection features eight popular roasts and blends.
