Barista Italiano 100 ESE Coffee Paper Pods 44mm (VARIETY PACK, 100 Sachets)

I am a long time customer of Farrers of Kendal, one of the country's oldest coffee roasters (founded in 1789). I have now gone over completely to Black Donkey Neapolitano. It is easily the best coffee I have ever tasted, red for mornings, to wake us up, and gold for dinner to put the day to bed. It is full of flavour, easy to use in the simple paper pods, and easy to clean-up the very minor mess when finished. I still buy some loose beans from Farrers, but largely out of sentiment, and grind them when I need a change. Black Donkey has completely seduced my wife. She has been suffering from cervical cancer and the unpleasant side-effects of chemo and radio therapies. One of her problems is that she needs to bost her immunity (because of the chemo) and doesn't like milk. However, she has taken to having a couple of Black Donkeys every day and is improving rapidly. Now I do not want to make any unproven claims but I think you coffee has undoubtedly helped.Finally, why do you keep asking for recommendations? I have responded positively after each purchase and do not supply misleading reports. We can only acquire Black Donkey on-line, otherwise I would seriously think of finding another supplier!T L Hewitt

Prompt delivery and good value for money. I tries both red and gold in my DeLonghi Micalite as soon as they arrived, both worked well with the ESE filter holder. Both had great tastes and different, I would say the red is more intense. Unfortunately there is no way of telling what coffee is in red or gold pouch, as no identification. Thats the only negative.

Ok

Was having difficulties finding paper coffee pods for my De Longhi 2 in 1 coffee machine. Shops only sell the plastic pods now.Saw these coffee bags on line and thought I would give them a go.They are delicious. Really good Italian coffee and value for money.

Tired this coffee out on my coffee machine and it taste terrible. It’s just flat, no real flavour at all. Tired to return it and Amazon states it’s not eligible for return. I’m sure if I was in a restaurant or coffee house I could send it back.

Nice flavour, but not strong at all. I’ve tried to reduce the water content and use 2 different pods in the attempt of a stronger double espresso with no luck, this just makes it taste worse. If you don’t necessarily like your coffee strong, you can give this a try, as the flavour is nice. My husband likes it, and it’s good value for money.

Easy to use and a nice tasting espresso. The red is stronger and better suited to espresso. It is equally comparible to ground in my machine but may be a bit weak if you like very bitter syrupy coffee. I find the gold one too weak and frothy on top. Tastes more like nespresso pods. The difficulty is getting a double for cappucino/latte/flat whites if you like frothy coffee. You have to use two pods. The beauty is the ease of use, speed and lack of mess.Also the package arrived very quickly

I've bought a few batches of these over the last couple of years. I'd read that some reviewers complained that their machines struggled to push the water though the pods. I always thought this was down to people just having poor coffee machines.....and then I bought these and now I'm saying the same. This is the 4th batch of ese coffee pods I've bought from various sellers and these are the first where my machine just can't push the same quantity of water though . So I'm convinced it must be the quality of the pads. Taste is ok but only 1 in 3 actually delivers a decent drink. Shame...

Die E.S.E. Pads passen hervorragend in meine DeLonghi Maschine und der Espresso ist wirklich sehr, sehr lecker und mit feiner Crema.Stark, klein, schwarz, rund, ob pur oder als CPpuccino/Latte Macchiato, alles ist möglich und schmeckt.Die Pads selbst sind kompostierbar, die Umverpackung schützt das Aroma, ist aber nicht unbedingt Umweltfreundlich. Für das Aroma eben notwendig und wenn man wenigstens korrekte Mülltrennung betreibt, ist die Umverpackung immer noch besser als Aluminiumkapseln für Nespresso, die ja dann den feuchten Kaffeesatz in sich tragen und vor dem Recyceln erst aufwendig gereinigt werden müssen.Insofern guter Kaffee, guter Preis und umweltfreundlicher als Nespresso.

bon café facile d'utilisation , et dosette a composter

Le rapport qualité/prix me semble correct. En contrepartie, il faut accepter quelques inconvénients dont on n'est pas prévenu : livraison en vrac et notice uniquement en italien. En définitive, on ne sait pas ce qu'on boit ! Mais quand on commande un expresso dans un café, c'est aussi généralement le cas.

dosettes arrivées en vrac dans un carton. Il a fallu compter les dosettes une à une soit 100 pour vérifier que le compte y était. Mais bons cafés et rapport qualité/prix

Contrairement aux visuels de l'article, aucune marque n'est mentionnée sur le carton d'emballage, ni sur les dosettes. Seules les couleurs rouge et dorée sont conservées. En ouvrant le carton, on trouve donc en vrac une centaine de dosettes, sans marque, ni traçabilité, ni date de péremption visible (voir photos). La seule mention est une adresse. En vue immersive sur Google Map on découvre un hangar quelconque dans une zone industrielle. En gros, on ne sait pas ce qu'on risque de boire. Décevant pour un produit supposé être élaboré en Italie, le Pays du Café. Aucune hésitation, retour direct demandé. Amazon serait bien inspiré de supprimer cet article, cela ne fait franchement pas sérieux.
