The machine has a drip plate that is very easy to rinse clean. Most parts can be removed and washed in the dish washer.

Choice of Flavours

With the Senseo one cup coffee maker you will have a variety of choices for flavor.

There are regular blends, as well as flavored, like vanilla and caramel. They also offer decaffeinated blends and flavors. You also get a choice in types of roasts - dark, mild or medium roasts whatever your preference.

One negetive though is, some of the flavours offered by Senseo, for example the Brazilian blend or the columbian blend are only available for ordering online.

The pods are all sold individually or in boxes of 10-20. You can choose to purchase a box that is all the same kind or try out an assortment pack.

The biggest draw back is that you cannot find every coffee flavor on the market in the desired pod size from Senseo.

These adaptors replace the senseo pod holder and allow you to use any of your preferred ground coffee with your Senseo machine. It sells for around $9 usd on amazon.

The Brewing Technique

Senseo uses a specially patented technique to brew their crema coffee. It is very similar to an espresso brew.

Basically, hot water is pushed through 5 small holes in the coffee cup or pod. This process is called extraction. Because the water runs through quickly and it brews the coffee so fast, it makes the coffee feel creamy when you drink it. That makes it distinguishable from a regular brew.
