Just because using coffee pods is convenient does not mean that making a perfect cup of coffee is. Though the process is simple, still simple things like boiling water to the correct temperature is necessary.
In this blog, we will learn about various methods of brewing coffee pods. These methods are helpful even if you do not have a single-serve coffee machine. So, do keep reading.
Brewing coffee using pods machine
If you have a Nespresso machine and Nespresso compatible pod (or any pod and machine which are compatible with each other), follow these steps:
Warm up the machine and let it drain to ensure every dirt comes out. If you don’t, the coffee will not taste its best.
Now, use cold and filtered water to fill up the machine. Measure the water before putting it.
Remove the coffee from its package
Pop the pod into the machine without forcing it to do so. You might have to press a button to access it, or you may not have to. Be sure to read the manual of the machine thoroughly.
Change the settings on the machine to your preference. Most pod coffee making appliances have three options-medium, light, and strong. Select the one according to your taste.
Brewing coffee using pod machine not compatible with your pods
If you do not have a pod that is compatible with your machine, follow these steps:
Have a holster that is compatible with the pod for this. Pop your coffee pod in the holster and put it in the machine. Again, never force the pod to fit into the machine.
Now place the mug under the coffee dispensing area and choose from the three options- light, medium, or strong.
Brewing coffee without a machine
If you do not have a pod machine but want to try pod coffee, you can with these steps.
First, open your pods coffee completely to get ground beans. You can do this with your hands or any sharp gadget like a pair of scissors.
Dispense the coffee into a mug of your choice. Use every last coffee if you want a delicious cup of coffee. If you reduce it, the coffee will not be as strong as individual pods that have enough coffee for one cup only.
Put the pod on top of the glass (you would need a narrow glass for brewing this)
Pour boiling water on it and let it brew for a few minutes.
