Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy serve espresso' produces excellent caramel-y crema. Can't seem to find these available anywhere in general, but maybe that just requires more sleuthing on my part. Produces a terrific crema!
Lavazza gran crema ese pods are a great way to go, especially for something like a cappuccino or americano. The pods provide the convenience of not having to grind and tamp our own beans. Around 50 cents a pod, the cost is worth the convenience.
Great aroma and always fresh since individually packaged. The body is fuller than i thought it'd be.
Lavazza brand is my preferred coffee. My favorite lava a coffee is lucaffe.
Cons
The pods produce a watery and bitter cup of espresso. There's no controlling the tamp when using a pod, so it's impossible to adjust the flavor of the finished shot.
Highlights
Quality
Great product, simple transaction and super high quality.
I used these with the handpresso hybrid for a quick on the go espresso.
Vendor (jf distributions) did not deliver the product as advertised.
Price
Around 50 cents a pod, the cost is worth the convenience.
Shipping
The seller was terrific, fast and organized.
Packaging/appearance
Clearly a packaging defect by the distributor.
Simply put the pod onto the portafilter, extract the espresso, remove pod and insert a new one!

The grind is not as small as most espresso brands which is great because my machine doesn’t work well if the espresso is too finely ground

All that being said it is kind of weird that like some of the other reviewers have said the pods themselves are clearly labeled not for individual sale and just come in a plain tied plastic bag

Maybe my delonghi ec155 is not the right machine for this pod but it is a ese machine so it should work

I tried several times to get a good cup of espresso from the lavazza gran crema but all were disappointing
