What is Senseo? Senseo was created through the partnership of two companies from the Netherlands: electronics company Phillips and Douwe Egberts, who is the world's second-largest coffee roaster. Together, they have created the Senseo coffee maker, a brand-new type of coffee-making system that makes the perfect cup of European-style coffee: balanced and flavorful, with a layer of froth on top.

The Senseo coffee maker works together with the unique Senseo coffee pods to make one or two cups of freshly brewed coffee quickly and efficiently. These pods are pre-measured and contain select Douwe Egberts coffees. With the pods, there are no messy filters to throw away and no guesswork about how much coffee to use. Just pop the pod of your choice into the machine, fill the reservoir with water, and voila! The Senseo coffee maker brews one cup in about 30 seconds, or two cups (one mug) in about 60 seconds.

To complement this revolutionary coffee maker, Douwe Egberts has chosen several different coffees for the Senseo pods. The mild roast has a light, clean flavor, while the medium roast is richer and more robust. Choose the dark roast for a full-bodied experience, or decaffeinated for a tasty cup of coffee sans caffeine. This spring Senseo introduces three new coffee pods that reflect their European heritage: Killarney has the flavor of Irish cream with a hint of vanilla, Vienna is a hazelnut blend with an after taste of chocolate, and the Paris blend is rich with vanilla and caramel.

European Flavor and Design Come Together with Senseo

The Senseo coffee maker produces a great cup of coffee every time. With its advanced technology and easy-to-use Senseo coffee pods, it's simple to use and easy to clean up after. Since you can make just one or two cups at a time, there's never any leftover coffee going to waste. It's European expertise in action--right on your countertop.
