Go to Coffeewhiz.com and go to the PODS section. Any of those would work and they have a great selection. I would buy a Bunn MyCafe over this. it does not brew a fantastic cup, just an ok one...

Go to Google and type in "coffee pods". I buy from Coffe Wiz. Good price and selection.

Yes, the only thing you can use is ground coffee! This is not a pod/k-cup compatible machine.

It looks like EZ Cup Pods are like the K-Cups. This makes the flat, round pods, like Sanseo, Melita, etc.

This model is primarily for use with ground coffee (I buy Starbucks Pike Place whole beans and grind the beans myself) or "E.S.E." (Easy Serving Espresso) pods like those from Illy or Lavazza ESE pods, which are paper pods that meet the ESE specification. You cannot use K-cups or other pods designed for coffee brewing machines.

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.

I stopped using mine as it was just making hot slightly colored water, I also used pods from Douwe Egberts coffee from Belgium.

No. This was a gift. We never use pods nor Keurig coffee makers. Convenience costs way too much.

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

it uses the flat pods - they look like fat tea bags - but do not buy this model - it does not work well.

I have one and it works great. I also buy whole bean coffee and grind it extra fine and don't have to buy the expensive pods...hope this helps you.

Actually your statement is false about having to buy pods. Presto makes a refillable coffee holder for the Senseo machine. I have one of the presto coffee holders and it works great when I want to use my Blue Mountain or Kona fresh ground coffee beans. The model # for the presto refillable coffee holder is 09402 and it comes with 100 filters that go on the bottom of the pod holder and it cost's about $10.00.

I don't know about the specific Nespresso machine, but the ones I know only use the pods manufactured by Nespresso, which is too bad because the Lavazza coffee is great.

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 have actually had success with Starbucks pods (using the single shot filter basket), but now I've been reading various places that the machine doesn't work with very many kinds of pods, and it is definitely not e.s.e. certified. I haven't tried any pods other than starbucks, but I don't think pods are the way to go with this machine. I would be curious if there was a pod adapter filter basket that you could purchase to make it work better with pods. Anyone know of such an attachment or where to purchase it?
