Officina 5 Caffè – E.S.E. Pods 44 mm

The Officina 5 E.S.E. pods 44 mm combine the artisan roasting tradition of the Abruzzo region with an uncomplicated portion system. In this collection, you will find four clearly distinct coffee blends as well as a tasting set – ranging from fine 100% Arabica to a strong, creamy bar espresso.

Officina 5 E.S.E. pods in 44 mm format

All pods in this collection correspond to the standardized 44 mm E.S.E. format. They are pre-portioned and intended for coffee machines that explicitly use E.S.E. pods. The regular Officina 5 packs contain 100 pods of 7.4 g each, totaling 740 g of coffee.

The E.S.E. system is particularly practical if you want to prepare a reproducible espresso without grinding or dosing. Insert the pod, brew the coffee, and simply remove the used pod afterwards.

Arabica 100% – fine and aromatic

Officina 5 Arabica 100% consists entirely of Arabica. This blend is balanced, aromatic, and possesses a fine acidity. It is recommended for those who prefer a more elegant espresso and place less value on maximum intensity.

Aroma Classico – balanced with cocoa notes

Officina 5 Aroma Classico combines Arabica and Robusta. The espresso is creamy, pleasantly sweet, and of medium intensity. Fine cocoa notes in the aftertaste are characteristic.

Aroma Bar – strong and full-bodied

Officina 5 Aroma Bar is the most intense blend in the collection. The coffee has a full body, a dense crema, and a distinctive espresso style reminiscent of a classic Italian bar espresso.

Aroma Gentile – harmonious with caramel notes

Officina 5 Aroma Gentile is harmonious, rounded, and of medium intensity. Fine caramel notes give the Arabica-Robusta blend a pleasant sweetness, making it an accessible choice for your daily espresso.

40-piece tasting set for getting to know them

If you are not yet familiar with Officina 5, the tasting set with 40 E.S.E. pods is the easiest way to compare. It contains 10 pods each of Arabica 100%, Aroma Classico, Aroma Bar, and Aroma Gentile. This allows you to test directly with the same machine which intensity and aroma profile you like best.

Slow roasting from Fara San Martino

Officina 5 comes from Fara San Martino in the Abruzzo region, at the foot of the Maiella massif. The roastery relies on selected raw coffees and a slow, artisanal roasting process. Instead of making all varieties taste as similar as possible, the blends are deliberately constructed differently – an advantage if you want to try out various espresso styles within one brand.

You can find more about the roastery and all available products in our Officina 5 Caffè main collection. If you use a capsule machine instead of E.S.E. pods, you can also find the four blends as Officina 5 coffee capsules.
