Do you have a pod-type coffee maker? What are the best pods?

1. I have one of those Home Cafe things.

I don't really care for it, to tell you the truth. The coffee just doesnt' taste fresh to me. I used Maxwell House pods.

I'm a coffee snob, though, so your mileage may vary.

3. I'm hoping to find something really good.

I made a cup w/ the pods that were packed w/ the machine and I really, really, really, REALLY hope that is not the usual cup of coffee that thing makes. I hope it was lousy because the coffee had been in the box forever.

7. I thought the same thing!

So I went and bought fresh pods, and still I wasn't that impressed. But I am really VERY picky about coffee, so it could just be my problem. It doesn't make a BAD cup of coffee, I just expected it to be so much better than it was.

8. I worked at a coffee house for a year, which is when I got my addiction

I don't know how much of a snob I am. I just won't drink it if it's not perfect.

It's GOT to get better... that's probably what you said, too....

9. Heh. I think you've come by your addiction honestly, and I

hope you can find some decent pods! If you do, let me know.

I put my machine away, and bought a new Cuisinart that grinds and then brews the coffee. It's much better tasting, although the steps to getting a pot of coffee from it are so complicated! :silly:

2. We've been invaded!

iPods, coffee pods -- the pods are everywhere.

Why didn't anyone notice?

5. There's a great Dutch company Douwe Egberts that make them

I've used their coffee bags for cups of coffee before and it's good stuff. Amazon sells it.

11. Oh Crap! I feel so out of the loop - what the hell is a Pod Coffeemaker???

[bertha katzenengel]

12. this

Here's one of them, made by Phillips



It makes one 4-oz or one 8-oz serving of coffee at a time. Good for me at home because Mrs. V. doesn't drink coffee much anymore, and I don't drink enough to justify making even half a pot.

14. Oh cool! I'm in the same boat - only coffee drinker in the house

I feel so enlightened now!! Thanks :)
