ILLY Espresso pods, I'm confused about how many seconds to brew it!?

Question

should i let it brew until it fills a 6 oz cup, or stop after 1 oz (a "shot"), then am I wasting the rest or do I not want that extra 5oz?

also, what's the diff. between running the brew for 6oz, and making an "americano" but adding hot water to 1oz of espresso?

Answer 1

Is this some weird new coffee that costs $$$$$???? I suggest you read the label.


PS, Americano is almost reg coffee with a fancy name.....name makes it worth $3.00 instead of 99c!

With this fancy new name, I expect this will be $4.50 a serving?
