This light, sweet blend is roasted to perfection from world famous Hawaiian Kona coffee. A nice change — and a special treat — for anyone who enjoys flavorful coffees but prefers a lighter roast. Twice the Coffee per Pod! Each Betterpods coffee pod makes a full 8oz cup (unlike the pods you buy at the grocer which make only 4oz.). Each box of Kona blend contains 12 pods. Unmatched Quality: The quality of our coffee is unmatched. First, we select only the finest green arabica coffees from around
This coffee is infinitely better than the Douwe Egberts coffee that comes with the Senseo. I like my coffee black – no cream, sugar, or anything else, so I like to really taste my coffee and can spot bad coffee right away.
No bitterness, much smoother, and stronger than Douwe Egberts coffee. Also, each pod makes an 8 ounce cup versus 4 ounce per Douwe Egberts pod. The pods are individually wrapped, and you can smell the freshness when you tear open a pod packet; when I opened a Douwe Egberts packet – there was only a faint smell versus the strong, fresh smell from these packets.
I have even – accidently – made 2-8oz cups of coffee with ONE of these pods – and the second cup wasn’t bad (a little weak, but not bad – some folks that prefer weaker coffee would have thought it was great).
I have tried four of BetterPods’ varieties, Kona, French Roast, Columbian, and Sumatra Mandheling – with the French Roast being my favorite due to my preference for a darker roasted coffee – but all being equally great otherwise. I think I am going to throw away the Douwe Egberts pods that came with my Senseo, or find some other non-beverage use for them.
I have also made espresso using Ecopads and the Senseo’s 1-cup mode with some Starbuck’s Espresso Roast… not quite as strong as a true coffee house espresso, but very good nonetheless, and much easier to setup than my old home-brew espresso machine… Now if BetterPods would only come out with an espresso roast (hint-hint)!
As with most SENSEO owners; you quickly look for other options as the coffee of D.E’s is not great. This is the first Kona type I’ve tried and it’s GREAT! I have it’s competitor to try but for the money and occasional cup o’ joe I am very satified with this brand.
I tried most of this brand’s flavors, and this is my favorite. OH! and decaf columbian is also my favorite. What can I say?? They were all good, just some better than others. Also these are good for one 8 oz cup, where other brands recomend one pod for a 4 oz cup.(so twice the cost). Thank’s Ron
