The coffee pads made of filter paper are usually fully compostable.
To use E.S.E. pods, you need an espresso machine compatible with the E.S.E. standard. The technical requirements of each compatible machine, such as temperature and pressure of the water used, are carefully checked. The E.S.E. system guarantees you easy and quick use with minimal, environmentally friendly waste and low cleaning effort. Additionally, it ensures consistently high quality of the coffee and the freedom to choose between different brands of compatible machines and pods.
