What kind of coffee pods work with this machine?

I don't use coffee pods. I just use ground coffee. I am not sure it takes ground coffee. I recommend you not buy this model. The steam nozzle has broken several times.

Doesn't really matter what pods work with this machine because this machine itself doesn't work. It's a badly designed total loss of an espresso machine. Don't even consider buying it. If you do you will be sorry you did.

I use the Lavazza Gran Crema single dose pods (coffee inside a filter packet). $51.36 for 150 from Amazon. Cheaper if you subscribe.

We are using them with a Hamilton Beach coffee maker. .. as long as your machine uses pods they should work.

The only coffee pods that'll fit this machine are the ones made for it. Sounds like captain obvious but in other words, there are NO OTHER PODS you can use. Only one kind in all the world will work and it's cuisinart coffee. Bummer for people like me that wanna use their favorite brand of coffee.

The current one only uses pods. The older models could use either loose coffee or a type of pod that's no longer made by Illy.

This machine takes coffee pods only. You can make your own coffee pods or buy senseo pods which work great.

I found a cute device on ebay that is used in place of the pod maker. Small, round metal holder that the pod fits in and then fill with coffee. Cover with lid and press iron on it to seal. Works great. Pods are so much cheaper that the K-cups. I could never figure out why the pods never really took off but the K-cups did. They are both single cup coffee servers but the pods are so much cheaper and don't take up so much space.

Thank you for the info, so far I've decided on Wolfgang Puck Coffee, Chef's Reserve, Medium Roast, 18-Count Pods (Pack of 3) . My machine is still going strong (used 1-3x per day) hopefully you can get yours replaced under warranty!

I really don't know, I am using a Hamilton Beach, if you ask the seller they may be more helpful. I have receved very good answers by doing this. If there is a place that holds coffee pods it should work, I use to use seneo until they became impossible to find

Only the Dolce Gusto pods.. unless it says it fits the nespresso machines... for sure the k-cups are too big.

dannette is right. the melitta pods go with the philips senseo coffee maker, not with the keurig k-cup models.

We have a Senseo Model 7832 and it works fine...but don'r expect the same results as pods. the crema is less and you need to pack the finely ground coffee pretty full (to taste of course).

Have you found any other pods that will fit this machine--I really don't like the taste of their pods.

Yes, the ESE pods are for this type of Espresso machine that says it takes pods.

I believe the current machines are pod only. Older models are combination ground coffee or little bags manufactured by Illy.

I have the Mr Coffee KG5 and it works in it, you just have to close it by pulling the little latch down instead of the top.
