If you like the idea of making fresh espresso every morning, but the thought of measing the right quantity of beans and grinding then yourself sounds like too much hassle, ESE (Easy Serving Espresso) coffee pods could be exactly what you need.
ESE pods aren't like the aluminum capsules used by the best Nespresso machines. Instead, they're paper bags, much like teabags, that contain a carefully measured dose of ground espresso beans. To use an ESE pod, just place it in the basket of your espresso machine's portafilter, where you'd usually put the coffee grounds, twist the handle into place, slip your cup under the spout and start brewing.
