Agree with the sentiment, but was wondering about the ESE pods as well, never used them but curious, they are single serving jobbies, so they are packaged in a hermetically sealed foil parcel so, more waste then just grinding and pulling a shot but far more convenient. I kinda like the whole ritual of making an espresso drink. We've stayed away from the aluminium pods for the very reason you've stated and didn't even know about the ESE pods until I bought my machine.

@Bernhard Srsly tho.. fuck pods!
3g of virtually non-recyclable packaging, 90%ish of which ends up incinerated or in landfill, per 6g of coffee. Oooh but it's so convenient!!
