The TEN pods: espresso, just like from the barista, but in your own home.

TEN: It is called like that because each portion contains about 10 grams of coffee powder. So there is about 40 % more coffee in each pad.

TEN is an extremely is rich in structure and body. Rich in aromas. Rich in the length of taste (more than two hours if you drink it without sugar). Balanced and harmonious. Very sweet. Just like the coffee in the best Italian bars (which often choose it for that reason).

The TEN system coffee pods are available with the Amici blend of nine pure Arabica varieties from the world's best growing regions or as single origins from selected micro-roasters that have been personally selected. This allows you to experience the individuality of each coffee variety. Discover our TEN range.

The TEN pads cannot be used with E.S.E. system machines.

As with wine, the production components also influence the flavour of coffee, refining the consumer goodv into an aromatic product and turning the drink into a new taste experience. Coffee can also be tasted, sampled, assigned to certain flavours and combined with other types of coffee, which leads to innovations in restaurants and cafés and ultimately raises the awareness of coffee connoisseurs who are also looking for variety at home or at work.

Coffee machines for E.S.E. pods

Small and compact or as a stylish eye-catcher: our machines for a complete coffee experience.

TEN is a system consisting of special machines and special pods created to make the best possible coffee in Italian restaurants and cafés.
It is, of course, a system with pods made of filter paper like the ones we have been familiar with for more than 100 years, but it has extraction parameters that are far superior to any other pod or capsule of the past.

The TEN Professional Espresso System in your home.

The appropriate care guarantees coffee of the highest quality and also prolongs the life of your coffee machine.

In fact, the cleanness of the machine and hygiene in handling the coffee and water play an equally important role as the technical subtleties to ensure that the machine works well and that you end up with the perfect coffee experience.

Our recommendations:

"Poi ti spiego..." (I'll explain later) was his shtick. We were boys, except Saverio, who was still in his infancy. If he was caught in the act, he would get out of the affair in a flash with a disarming "Poi ti spiego...".

Even today, when I have to save myself from "one of those" situations, I say as innocently as possible: "Poi ti spiego...".

It always works!

We have brought it back to life, the collection from the 90s by Francesco Illy and Paolo Rossetti: so elegant, smooth and fine, sensual and mature.

MOU Collection

The cups without handles! An unusual elegance for these cups, whose collection was born thanks to the work of 2 artists: Karl Kreger, who with his raised coffee beans on the china has created the illusion that the cup is already releasing the intense flavour of coffee — even when it’s empty — and Ron Anderson, who has used a colourful language with four subjects. Since then, new artists have joined the project to enrich this collection. Click on the box of the cup you prefer and discover all its characteristics.

Anniversary Collection - Thank you Lucerne for your ideas.

The well-known cup collections - Amici Collection and MOU Collection - are a characteristic feature of our company. The idea of collaborating with famous designers and artists came from our company founder, Francesco Illy.

Artists of the most various directions create the most diverse and imaginative themes on the porcelain cups in an impressive way. To mark its 40th anniversary, Amici Caffè is launching a new collection of cups in exclusive collaboration with the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, Design & Arts. Previously, the students submitted their creations to us and we put them on our website. The community had the possibility to choose their favourites. The four subjects of this MOU anniversary collection were chosen as winners.

The story of Dammann Frères

In 1692, King Louis XIV granted "Sieur Damame" the exclusive privilege of selling tea in France. A good 230 years later, the brothers Robert and Pierre Dammann founded the company Dammann Frères. The tea lover Jean Jumeau-Lafond, who had a lasting influence on the history of Dammann Frères, greatly changed the previously weak French tea market in the 1940s. The beginning of a success story, because within 5 years tea from Dammann was sold in more than 1000 shops.
