With the help of Starbucks® coffee pods, it's easy to create your favorite espresso beverage at home.

Each pod is filled with ground and tamped Starbucks® Espresso Roast, so there's no measuring, no grinding, no mess. Just a consistently delicious shot of espresso, every time.

Starbucks® espresso pods measure 54 mm across from the edge of the filter paper to the other. It is 43 mm across the section containing the coffee and 9 mm thick. Each pod contains 7 grams of coffee, enough for one shot of espresso. Starbucks® Espresso Roast pods can be used with most home espresso machines; they will fit in all espresso machines accepting E.S.E. (Easy Serving Espresso) pods.

Espresso pods are not compatible with single-serve pod coffee makers or the Verismo® System.

Each coffee requires slightly different amounts of time and temperature during the roasting process to create a cup at its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor. We classify our coffees in three roast profiles so you can easily find your desired flavor and intensity.

  • Blonde: Blonde-roasted coffees have a shorter roast time, lighter body and mellow flavors.
  • Medium: Medium-roasted coffees are balanced with smooth and rich flavors.
  • Dark: Dark-roasted coffees feature a fuller body and robust, bold flavors.

We’re committed to ethically sourcing and roasting the highest-quality arabica coffee in the world. When we buy coffee this way, it fosters a better future for farmers, and a more stable climate for the planet. It also helps create a long-term supply of the high-quality beans we’ve been carefully blending, roasting and packing fresh for more than 40 years.

Espresso Roast Pods

This espresso is part of our history—the same beloved blend we’ve been serving in our stores since we handcrafted the very first Starbucks latte. Much has changed since then, but we still feel that nothing beats this rich blend of high-grown beans. It reaches its flavorful zenith through a longer roast to achieve a dark, caramelly sweetness. Great for the office, each of the 12 pods is filled with fresh-roasted, ground and tamped coffee for a mess-free, delicious shot of espresso, every time.

A fabulous product I am crushed that I can no longer buy this product as it was amazing. Had I known that it would fall out of favor to those ridiculously wasteful "K cups," I would have had hoarded them. I love Starbucks coffee... make it at home every day... but I'm now forced to look elsewhere for E.S.E. espresso pods as I will not be replacing my Breville espresso maker with a Keurig or Verismo system. Please, please, PLEASE reconsider offering this product once more! May 17, 2013
WHY IN GODS NAME DID YOU DISCONTINUE THIS?!?! I cannot believe that the ESE Pods have been discontinued in favor of a system that doesn't have the same quality and creates more waste than anything. the ESE pods produced quality espresso with great flavor and after i was done with the pods i could toss them in my compost because they were completely biodegradable. This is really disappointing from a customer that has in the past really valued the quality and service of Starbucks. To suddenly discontinue a product just to try and "force" it's customer base to use a newer system is despicable. May 9, 2013
Love the coffee and the products The pods are great as is the original expresso machine sold by Starbucks. I have two - one in each house. One is twelve years old. Why cannot I get pods? I want to be able to steam the milk, as is done with any expresso machine. The new machines have not improved your image. Please make the pods available!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! April 25, 2013
ugh! Heartbroken! Please bring back the pods!!!!!!!!! I can't have my coffee at home anymore. April 24, 2013
Please Bring Back Espresso Roast Pods I have had a Starbucks Barista espresso/cappuccino maker for about 20 years now and have used your pods for about that long, making a doppio espresso con panna at home each morning and afternoon. I was so sad and disappointed to find out that my favorite espresso roast pods were being discontinued in favor of the Verismo system (I've tried the samples, but they just don't compare). I have sampled and ordered espresso pods from Italy but, surprisingly, they are not as strong or as tasty as your pods. I've just submitted an order for some other pods again, reluctantly, and am hoping that if enough long-time customers reach out to you, you might reconsider bringing back your espresso roast pods. It would definitely make my year! April 9, 2013
