The Senseo coffee maker has been described as a true work of art. Customer who had previously depended on a coffee grinder pot find the Senseo meets all of there expectations and more when it comes to getting the prefect coffee percolator. Within a matter of seconds you can have the coffee grinds ready to start brewing. All you have to do is place the coffee grinds in the paper filter and you can set this percolator for one or two cups. When you buy the machine you get packages of Douse Egbert pods in both one and two cup varieties so you know exactly how much to place in the filter.
You do have to wait about a minute and a half for the coffee to brew. Once the light stays on, then you know its time for your cup of java. You simply place your cup under the spout and press the button to pour out the best tasting cuppa you'll ever have. You get a cup of foam topped coffee, just like the espresso that you buy at Starbucks. Once you have the water boiled, it won't take you as long to get the next one or two cups of French Roast coffee.
In order to keep your Senseo in good working order, make sure you have it turned off and unplugged before you start cleaning it. The filter basket can come out and is dishwasher safe. You only need to wash the outside of it down with a damp cloth.
Once you have a Senseo in your kitchen, you can put away your espresso and cappuccino machines for good. This has been called the ideal coffee pot because it makes whatever kind of coffee you like to have. Although it may cost a little extra to buy the Douse Egberts coffee grinds, you can get them in different flavours and you will find that they are worth the extra cost. While you may not be able to find them in your local supermarket, you won't have any difficulty buying them online and have them sent directly to your mailbox.
Of course, if you really like making your own coffee grinds from coffee beans, you can continue to do so. The Senseo will add to your coffee drinking experience. You will have a few cups in the morning when you get up and then you can fill up the filter for another brew to take with you in your travel mug. You don't need to leave early to manage a stop at Starbucks on the way along.
