Smooth and fragrant.Aug 04, 2006
This is great espresso! The flavor is very smooth and the pods are very easy to use. They are intended for E.S.E compatible machines though, which hold a very small pod.

Best Espresso everJun 30, 2006
I bought this after reading many reviews and I am glad that I did, the quality of this Espresso is EXCELLENT, I am almost addicted to it now because it is so good, I constantly want to have another, I also bought the Starbucks Espresso Pods, which I would not recommend, they have a bland taste, but I would recommend the Illy pods to anyone, in fact, I am back for my second purchase.

Wonderful for slow morningsMar 22, 2006
The ESE system is wonderful and the Illy coffee is amazing. I can pull a decent shot of espresso anytime I want, especially during mornings when I can barely get out of bed. Instead of having to blend, grind, pull, taste, wash, scrub, repeat; all I have to do is put the pod in the portafilter, pull the shot and enjoy. The entire process takes less than 40 seconds and allows me the espresso experience without all the barista duties.
Just remember to pull a blank shot before the first shot and after the last!

Perfect Italian Espresso!Dec 14, 2005
If you're looking for a good, and mess free way to enjoy espresso at home, then I highly recommend Illy ESE pods! I use the Illy medium-roast pods with my Briel Multi Pro Espresso machine. The pair produces such good tasting, Italian cafe- style espresso everytime! It is not bitter nor acidic. You get full bodied and velvety espresso consistently.The crema produced is thick and quite beautiful. And of course if you want to make capuccino, all you have to do is froth some milk! How easy is that! For Italian espresso lovers, this is one great buy!

These pods make great espresso in no timeJan 28, 2004
I love these pods! I can get good tasting espresso in five minutes. They are strong, full flavored, and not bitter. I have been using them for a month, and have been very happy.One caveat: I am no coffee expert. I am just as happy with Chock full o' Nuts as I am with Starbucks.
