Different Types Of Coffee Pods

Coffee pods (or pads in non-English speaking countries) are like tea bags that are used for brewing good coffee fast. They are great for people on the go, as they are easy to use, take about 30 seconds to prepare and are keep everything clean. Making a single cup coffee out of a pod is as easy as filling a coffee maker with water, placing the pod in the receptacle and hitting the button. A few seconds later and you have a fresh coffee ready to be consumed.

Coffee pods come in different strengths and from different makers. How much your pod costs will not only depend on its strength, but also on the flavor and maker too. One of the higher priced pods in the market today is those made by Illy. A box of Illy Medium Roast Espresso pods can cost up to $13.99 which only includes 18 pods. Although it might be a little pricey, fans of this coffee swear how good the taste and strength is, which makes the perfect coffee every time. A more expensive variation of Illy coffee pods are the Illy espresso pods DECAF. A box good cost $44.99, which is good for only eighteen servings.

If you are fond of using pods to make your coffee, but don't really have the budget for it then you can go for the cheaper pods instead. Timothy’s for example, can be purchased for as low as $7.99 which is very affordable compared to Illy’s. Wolfgang Puck’s on the other hand, is also very affordable which only costs about $8 per box. Aside from buying these brands, you can also save on pods by making your own. A pod maker costs about $10 (depending on the brand), which could save you a lot than when buying those that are ready-made.

There are different types of pods for different tastes. One type is the flavored coffee pods, which comes in different varieties. Using these to make your coffee is a sure way to enhance the way your coffee taste. Another type of pod is the E.S.E or Easy Serving Espresso. The espresso pods produce are perfect for making the perfect espresso, making it a favorite among people who likes strong coffee.

Coffee pods are such an easy and convenient way to make coffee that you seriously need to consider using them either for office or at home. Although they can be more expensive than your regular coffee, I don’t think there is a better way to spend your money than a good and relaxing cup of coffee.
