Will PodMerchant Pods Fit my Machine?

PodMerchant sells pods conforming to the "Easy Serving Espresso" standard. They work in the great majority of espresso machines. They are sometimes known as "45 mm" pods or "hard" pods. Espresso pods are specifically made for espresso machines — i.e., machines that use pressure to force hot water through ground coffee in 30 seconds or less. If your coffee maker does not produce a shot of 1 ounce in 20 to 30 seconds (probably accompanied by a lot of buzzing or humming), it is not an espresso machine and our pods will not work in it.

PodMerchant espresso pods are not compatible with Senseo, Melitta One, Black & Decker, Keurig or any other single-cup coffee brewers. Those machines do not make espresso. Our pods also cannot be used with Nespresso, Bennoti, or Comobar 2000 machines which use proprietary espresso capsules. Only the Lavazza Capsules can be used with the Lavazza Espresso Point machine.
