Does this machine use the "K-Fee" Pods? I recently was gifted a "Verismo" and am looking for more coffee options to use other than the SB flavors.

The CBTL machine only uses the CBTL pods, however they have several options between coffee, Chai tea as well as different tea flavors. All of which are delicious! Even the flavored coffee (which I am normally not a fan of ) tastes great. Especially as a latte. I had the CBTL machine, got the starbucks one and ended up with a better espresso out of the CBTL! If you are looking to make regular coffee any of the new machines would be dine, however if You are wanting a mocha ot a latte then I would go with the CBTL, or the Starbucks machine, due to the pressure they put out. The higher the bars of pressure the better the result for the espresso shots. Of course the bean quality matters as well. Good luck hope this helps.

No. This was a gift. We never use pods nor Keurig coffee makers. Convenience costs way too much.

For me this is good news... I have the coffee pot... but, no pods :-) Thanks for letting me know about them coming out with more pods in June. I do like my senseo!!

It uses the standard K-cups that you can get everywhere, NOT the Vue or the new 2.0. It does not, however, use the My K-cup that allows you to use your own coffee. It doesn't fit. I love this brewer. It is much better than the B40.

Not to my knowledge. There are specific Verismo pods for the Verismo machine & directions say to only use those. I buy mine from Starbucks online or Bed,Bath & Beyond- ha! Coupons!

I've been looking at that this morning. It looks like the Keurig models that don't allow you to use the refillable pods are the new machines that are listed as a 2.0 version. 'read that on the Consumer Reports site.

These CBTL pods do work in the Starbucks Verisimo machine. They're a lot cheaper and, in my opinion, better than Starbucks pods.

We had a Keurig previously then went to the Bosch Tassimo, and then discovered the Nescafe' while in Europe this summer. We think the Nescafe' Dolce Gusto coffees, cappuccino,and latte macchiato beats both our previous coffee makers in taste by far. Great coffee!! Enjoy!!

Only the Dolce Gusto pods.. unless it says it fits the nespresso machines... for sure the k-cups are too big.

I have not used anything except the Dolce Gusto pods. The pods are so small I do not want it to run over so I stick to the pods that were designed for the machine.

I ordered a B70 also but got a K75 which I think is a newer model. However, the new models seem not to come with sample coffee; however, I did get not only the three pager, but also a thick instruction book and a book of product offers.

As far as I have experienced, it does accept all brands of regular K-cups, and also reusable refill style cups. I don't like the refill one that Keurig makes, because you have to take out the pod cartridge inside the machine and replace it with the refillable one, which is a hassle. I like the one I bought at Bed Bath and Beyond that is a little plastic pod that fits right in the space where a disposable pod would fit, and comes with tiny little paper filters so you can use your own coffee instead of buying the expensive Keurig pods all the time.

Just brewed three cups of coffee with our new Suncana and with the 10g Baronet pod - a little foam. With the Senseo 7g pod - a little foam. Nothing compared to the old broken Senseo. So how are people raving about "It's like a latte"? "Great crema." Not ours. Called the company and they mentioned another pod holder, an espresso pod holder, thatis on their store site for $9.99. They readily admitted that the standard pod holder produces only a little foam (the one that comes with the machine). So it is disappointing.

I have been searching for one and have not yet found it. It is a beautiful machine but I did not know what to look for when I bought it. It's Cafe "Americano" is terrible. I just got the "Lungo" and it is better but not great. The Cappuccino is good but very expensive. If I had known more I might have bought something else.By the way, Amazon has most of their coffees shipped free if you have Prime.

Hi Angie - Unfortunately you can only use the Starbucks 'Verismo' pods in this machine. The Kerrig K-Cups won't work in. You can order the Verismo pods on Amazon or go to a Starbucks store. I haven't been able to find them in a grocery store yet. However, despite the inconvenience the coffee is so much better then a Kerig I don't mind having to do a bit more. Hope this helps.

The Verissmo is optimized for 1 oz shots of espresso, so it's not comparable to a Keurig for regular coffee cups. Even making an Americano would probably not suffice....

Yes it does. We are completely thrilled with it. The pods are a little harder to find than the Kuerig "K-cups", but we just ordered ours through Amazon. They offer tons of different brands/types/flavors....just watch the shipping. Some of the suppliers are pretty pricey on shipping.
