Philips Senseo Hd7814/60 Original Coffee Pod System £25 @ Tesco Outlet / Ebay

£29.00 - Looks gorgeous (_;)

These are a great little coffee machine. Managed to pick one up on a car boot sale for £1. Still going today, and with the lidl coffee pods it's even better!

Got mine secondhand many years ago, generally make 5+ cups a day, pretty much every day since then, so I can't fault the reliability. I use EcoPad reusable pods, and coffee beans from Costco, makes a good cup of coffee for less than instant.

Buy a coffeeduck and you can use just about whatever ground coffeebeans you want, without the restrictions of the ground coffee filled "tea bag style" pods.

Postage is £14.01!!!!!!!! no thanks

I would recommend a Dolce Gusto machine for lattes and cappuccinos... they are also on offer at the moment in Tesco

Grabbed one of these when amazon did them stupid cheap before christmas. Forget the pads, get a Duck or Melitta Pad Filter and use whatever coffee floats yer boat.

that is what I use for mine, got one from Amazon (the coffeeduck) and we use Nescafe Alegria ground coffee. Lovely

It looks a bit like a giant black dildo

I'd hate to see your Mrs undercarriage bilaldude if that's your idea of a dild ;-)

By Filtered coffee i take it you mean Ground coffee in which case Yes any kind you choose makes a nice coffee complete with creme!

bought one of these in tesco black friday xmas sale for £19. it was complete waste of money! I've tried various types of senseo coffee pods. in my opinion the coffee tastes awful.

heat added. good find over £30 on Amazon.

meant to add...you can get a cheaper version of the pods, double the quantity (72pk) from Amazon. they're called Rene pods.

I have one and I love it - barely drunk a cup of tea since.

Silly thing to say but im not that clued up on coffee. When i say filtered i mean the type of coffee you have to put through a mesh and let hot steam pour trhough it. You can't use it as regular coffee as it will never dilute.

I've never seen decaf ones in Lidl, but then I personally think decaf coffee is pointless. They do Kenyan, Brazilian and Nicaraguan blends that I've seen - £1.69 for 18.

These are awful. Nespresso is far superior and will make better coffee.

I could, but it would be quicker and more self explanatory to just google search "coffeeduck senseo youtube" where you can clearly see for yourself.

I use both the coffee duck and melitta filter. I use any Espresso grind coffee that I fancy. You basically fill your duck or filter with ground coffee, pop the lid on, pop it in the machine and use the machine as per normal directions.

Currently I am working my way though various Coffee direct coffees I got off Amazon when they were doing 2lb bags for £4 a pop.

It is a very cheap way to have expensive tasting coffee.

I have tried the pads - but found them a bit ....meh.

I had one of these some years ago and intended to car boot it, the coffee bags you can buy in the shops really don't taste good and you only get a small amount of water pumped through. If you are undecided, I would say go for something else.

Seems like a nice machine, I've seen some yt clips where people use the two cup pod + coffee filter paper and ground coffee. The creama this thing produces is amazing. 15 bar is a lot more than my stove top 3/4? At the most I think. I wouldn't use pods as I have my perfect blend of beans. Better taste than illy. Anyway sorry for the ramble heat added.

The machine was delivered early this morning. I've made three cups for far a test, one for me and another for the misses. She likes the machine far more than me. I'm happy with it as it's easier to clean and all that. I use paper coffee filters. If only the double coffee cover was able to hold just a bit more coffee then I'd be happy as pie.
I think this thing runs at 6 or 7 bar and is under extracting the coffee, maybe a little more pressure on the tamper might help. I am using a fairly fine grind but not using espresso beans. For the price this is a fairly decent machine, plus the 2 year warranty is good. If you don't have a machine then in this price range you'd be hard pressed to find better.
PS. The creama surprised me, it not only does it produce a decent amount but also has a lot of cascading.
I think next thing will be either a coffee duck or a similar reusable pod system.
