However, coffee is a natural product and its flavour changes according to its origin and blend; it is therefore a good idea to try different types of coffee in order to find the most suited to your personal taste. For optimal results, we recommend using espresso machine blends. As a rule, coffee should always come out of the pressurized filter holder, without dripping. The coffee brewing speed can be modified by slightly changing the amount of coffee in the filter and/or using a different coffee grind. Saeco recommends using ESE single-dose coffee pods for a tasty coffee and easier cleaning and preparing.
