Introducing The Pod Coffee Maker

September 16, 2009 · Posted in pod coffee makers · Comment 

In under a decade the pod coffee maker has become an astounding success in the java world. The idea of serving a single cup of coffee is perfect for today’s families who are constantly on the move with little time to relax at home. Brewing a single cup of coffee takes less than one minute and cleaning up afterward is as easy as removing the coffee pod and tossing it in the garbage. The coffee pods are packaged in their own filter. Hot water is infused into the pod just enough so that the coffee comes out hot and perfectly brewed.

Making coffee has never been easier.

The coffee pod coffee maker is simple to use, requires a very light cleaning maintenance (most parts are removable and are able to be put in the dishwasher) and brews consistently quality cups of coffee. The single serve coffee pods are sealed in air tight containers so their freshness is guaranteed in every cup. You never have to measure for the right amount because the pods are pre-measured for the amount it takes to make one cup. Plus you will never see grounds in your cup again.

What Does A Pod Coffee Maker Cost?

They can be a little more expensive than your regular coffee pot ringing in at an average of $70, but you will cut down on the amount of water you will use to brew a whole pot, you won’t waste any coffee brewing a whole pot when all you want is one or two cups, and you never have to purchase filters. The savings on those things alone will more than pay for the coffee pod machine.

The more expensive the machine though, the more features it will mostly likely have. Premium pod coffee makers can offer more in the way of customization with your coffee pods than cheaper models.

For example, many have adjustable cup sizes. You will be able to make one or two cups in either a regular sized coffee cup or a travel mug. All with the touch of a button.

They will be able to use several different brands of coffee so that you are not limited to one particular coffee maker which could cost you to spend more on coffee than you want to.

The power supply to the coffee maker should shut off automatically on a quality machine. Most will have timers programmable up to 24 hours in advance so that you can wake up to fresh cup of hot coffee.

You should expect your pod coffee maker to brew a single cup of coffee in under a minute. Quality models will have a high wattage (1400 or more) to allow quick brewing.
