Maud's Kona Medium Roast Coffee Pods, 100ct

Excellent medium roast with flavor! We’ve tried several other brands recently, due to weak coffee flavor. Found others weak or bitter. We love this Kona Medium Roast with the ability to choose the strength based on cup size and water amount and the flavor remains consistent. Bonus, it’s $10 a case cheaper than some of the other brands and tastes much better. We’ve added Maud’s to our regular subscribe and save for even more savings! Tips: 1. Changed to using RO water after installing under kitchen sink system and haven’t replaced coffee maker in years instead of buying several per year that despite cleaning, clogged and stopped working. 2. Maud’s has NOT had any issue, however, we no longer have pods that back up because of puncture failure & wasting a pod, because we now make sure the top (lid) is closed securely before dispensing the water. Press a little harder when closing the lid!

Great coffee

Mild great Kona flavor. No aftertaste. Will buy again

Great bold flavor!

This flavor is a bit bitter compared to the others.

We've been buying this for a few years now and thought it was a great value. But last month, we had quite a few pods that I'm guessing were underfilled? Several very weak cups, thought it was the machine at first, but only happening 1 out of 10 times. Was willing to overlook that, but as soon as we got our most recent batch, my partner claimed the taste was off by a lot. I'm not too picky, and could tell they weren't as good as usual, but not a big deal for me. She went and bought some name brand cups at the store, but I kept drinking the Mauds. A couple of days later, I brewed a cup with a sharp, almost chemical flavor. Drank about half of it and started to feel nauseous. Hopefully it was just mold and not straight up poison. Threw the other 90 or so cups in the trash. I'm currently trying to decide whether to give them another chance or cancel my subscription. We were satisfied for years, but not sure I want to keep playing "hope I don't get sick this time."

Smooth, rich flavor with no acid stomach burn. My husband was so happy to find Kona Coffee.

The Kona blend is decent. It is good but in my opinion, is NOT great and the hassle makes it even less great. The problem with this particular Maude branded Kona coffee that many reviewers have complained about is not the flavor of the coffee but the way it brews. There are grounds in their coffee, "explosions" and leaky/messy coffee discharge. However you label it, here is the problem: It happens on 2 different machines that I use and both are HIGH(ER) END, B-150 and the K-3500 direct plumbed machines. But, based on reviews, I suspect it happens in other machines as well. What happens is when you place a pod into the machine and close the lid, the machine is supposed to "punch" a hole in both the top AND the bottom of the K-cup pod. The top is a thin foil like material and is fine, the problem is on the bottom of the Maude pod (LOL) where they have a seemingly thicker more "flexible" plastic than most other pods and the "puncture needle" does NOT puncture the bottom of the pod like it should, it just dents it, therefore forcing the coffee, water and grounds to all come out through the top foil part, making the BIG UGLY MESS that people complain about. There are 3 possible fixes: 1) Use different K-cup pods that do not have this problem which is just about ANY other ones. Read reviews to find out. If it does it, people will be saying it. 2) Fix the Maude pods: How: Before closing the "hatch" on the coffee machine, take precise note of how the pod is oriented (i.e. lettering facing up (exactly 12:00) because you will have to put it back in the same position. Now: while the pod you wish to use is sitting in the tray, before you close the lid, manually push the Maude pod down into place very firmly to force puncture a hole in the bottom, then lift it and move it a hair left and press it down again, then move it a hair right and do it again. Do not worry about punching a hole in the top, the machine handles this part fine and will do it when you close the lid. After force pressing the pod a couple of times, remove pod (noting its position in the cradle and make sure there IS an actual hole (barely smaller than a ball point pen) in the pod. If so, it will now work perfectly. If not, you can use an ice pick, awl, steak knife, fork or whatever to poke a hole, just make sure it lines up with where the machine (normally) does the hole punching for you because that is were the coffee exits the pod. NOTE *** It may not matter whether or not your newly created hole lines up with the machine's "poking mechanism", I don't know for sure. I make sure it lines up but you may be able to just poke a hole and put it in any old way, I'm not certain on this. I just line it up and call it good. 3) Go to Starbucks or dig up your Mr. Coffee Machine.

Really enjoy the Kona roast.

Great flavour and no bitter taste 👅

Really enjoying Maud’s coffee and this is another favourite. Very reasonably priced when buying the 100 box.

The best tasting coffee I've had in ages. Fresh but not bold. No after taste. Will definitely continue purchasing

Maud's Kona coffee taste pretty good, not too strong or weak, makes for a nice smooth cup of coffee
