Review of Colombian Supremo Coffee Pods -- Box of 14 Pods, Each Pod Makes a Full 8oz Cup -- Specialty Coffee Pods for Senseo, Homecafe, and Other Single Serve Brewers

Colombian Supremo Coffee Pods -- Box of 14 Pods, Each Pod Makes a Full 8oz Cup -- Specialty Coffee Pods for Senseo, Homecafe, and Other Single Serve BrewersThis 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)!


Product Description
World famous 100% Colombian beans are roasted to bring out their rich and nutty flavor. A classic coffee for any time of the day! 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.). Unmatched Quality: The quality of our coffee is unmatched. First, we select only the finest green arabica coffees from around the world. We cup every shipment of beans to ensure consistency. Then, we convection roast our beans (through a proprietary process) to extract the most flavor. Lastly, we grind, "podify", and package our pods in an oxygen-free environment. Our individually wrapped, foil-sealed pods will stay fresh for up to 18 months! The result? Simply the best coffee you can get for Senseo, Home Cafe, and compatible single serve coffee brewers. In 10 varieties!
