SAN FRANCISCO BAY SF Coffee OneCUP /Dark Roast Compostable Coffee Pods

I have successfully used other actually compostable k-pods like these (chock full o nuts for example) in my keurig k-supreme and have never had this problem. With san francisco pods, most of the liquid filtering down from the keurig was water because it bypassed the pod. The liquid in the cup was the color of very, very weak tea. Unfortunately, i just wasted $38 because these are non-fundable!

Update: i emailed san francisco coffee and they are sending me an adapter for my keurig-supreme. I’ll have to let you know how that works.

Update 2: the adapter for my keurig k-supreme arrived in only a few days. It is a small ring of plastic but it did the job! I am more than satisfied. I was able to finally taste the coffee. So far i have tried breakfast blend and french roast. I can’t decide which i like more. Thank you san francisco coffee. My only concern is that the adapter is likely to be accidentally thrown out due to its small size. I just sent an email to customer service to see if they will send another.

I used to grind the whole coffee beans, then brew and my husband who grew up in sf loved french roast. He was older than i and recalled the cable car on the golden gate bridge and when it got near to sf he smelled the folgers coffee plant. It is no longer there, but ever since that memory he drank only dark french roast. He introduced me to it upon marriage, and it is all i drink. Now it’s only me and i use the keurig pods and it tastes as if i just ground the beans, and all i need is one cup in the morning. It works perfectly for two people or just one. I have been using it for 28 years or more and will continue to do so. This is the best.

I have been drinking decaf coffee for over 20 years now, and had not been able to find the compostable cups for decaf anywhere. (i wish my favorite brands of coffee would offer 100% compostable!) i have read some reviews stating that these are one-day shelf life. I have an airtight cannister (bought here on amazon) that i use to store these. The coffee has stayed fresh for over a month – even those outside the bag. Btw, even the bag they come in is compostable! Thank you!

Had to buy san francisco coffee french roast from amazon as the local costco, where we moved to, doesn’t carry san francisco coffee. Love the taste of the french roast flavor. Flavorful but not too strong. I run a 6oz cup with a bit of brown sugar and powdered milk–like drinking dark chocolate! I love that the packaging is industrial compostable, so that if your city/county has a composting program, you can just toss this in the composting bin. Unfortunately, i no longer live in a city that does composting, but i don’t feel as bad tossing these cups than the regular k-cups. I keep the coffee in an air-tight container to keep it fresh.

I never had a keurig coffee maker until recently. I didn’t like that i was throwing so many plastic cups into the recycle bin. I found this brand on amazon and i have to say i’m hooked. The espresso pod that comes in this mixed pack is awesome. The flavor that i found i really love though is the donut shop.

Wow. Very disappointed as i have ordered this brand before. The pods do not puncture. I had to push forcefully down on my keurig just to get the pod to get a good seal. If not the water spills all over and you end up with a weak brewed watery coffee, complete with coffee grounds in the cup.

This coffee is my absolute favorite. After a long search through many different brands, i can truly say that sf bay coffee is my top favorite. It’s nicely flavored and has a light after taste. Not acidic or too strong at all. In fact it’s so good, after years and years or taking coffee with sugar, i no longer need the sweetness to mask the bitterness. Oh yeah, there’s no bitterness to the breakfast blend. The columbia supreme is awesome too, but not as well rounded as the breakfast blend. I highly recommend this k cup coffee, you won’t be disappointed! Best of all, no guilt since all the packaging is compostable. Yes! Happy drinking, and wakey wakey!

Use for making latte. Like the flavor even over going to popular coffee chains. Great value. Will definitely buy again.
Only difference i find with these pods over the full cup type is when the keurig blows air at the end of the cycle you don’t hear it.

I’m brazilian, so i like my coffeee srtong and flavorful, with a nice aroma. This coffee reminds me a little of coffee i used to drink in brazil, only a bit smoother. I gave some to my mom and she loves it. She says it smells like home. The only problem is that i’ve become an even worse a coffee snob when i go out! Lol

I would probably give this 4.5 stars instead of 5 stars, only due to after punching the hole from the coffee machine to the coffee pod you do have to widen it so the ground coffee will not spill over into your cup. Love smelling the coffee before putting it in the machine and i do keep in an airtight container.

So i’ll put this out there that this is my favorite coffee and will now be buying the grounds. In the past i had a older keurig. And this worked perfectly with it. It made a nice bold coffee. But beware with new keurigs that this component doesn’t brew coffee efficiently. It causes a lot of water to leak around the sides making the coffee very mild if not just watery. So overall if you have a old keurig this is 5 stars for me. But if you have a new one just buy grounds and use with a reusable k-cup.

I have had this coffee caffeinated and also decaffeinated both are amazing the only thing with the filter it does let a little residue through that will sit at the bottom of your cup but i prefer these over having it filtered through plastic as you don’t get the plastic taste in your cup of coffee with this type of k cup. It is a pretty strong cuppa coffee so i do run it through twice to get more ounces out of one pod. I have tried other brands another types and i always come back to this one

This flavor is not my flavor. I like a strong coffee and i like a mild coffee. The haight flavor has a skunky flavor to it that turns my stomach. It cost a little more than the french roast which is a golden standard for coffee, everyone should try that and only try this if you want to experiment.

This was recommended in my ‘low acid’ search. I didn’t pay attention to see that the product does not claim to be low acid. That said, it seems to be unusually high in acid. It does have a nice bold taste.

Really love the fresh, full flavor! But, a tip to keurig users: as sfb says, this is not a k-cup, and although it does fit into a keurig brewer, it does not always work in one. It may work in the older keurig machines (and i’ve read that it does work in keurig 2.0 designs), but works only sporadically in the multi-port machines. This is due to to things: 1) the sfb pod is very flexible (the top surface bends easily and away from the injector pins), and 2) there is a seal layer just under the pod top surface that tends to resist puncture. My suggestion (and what i do) is to empty the pod coffee grounds into a my k-cup universal reusable filter. Not terribly difficult, easy to clean, and makes a great cup of sfb coffee.

Like the convenience, the flavor and packaging, nothing to recycle. Available at costco but the convenience of delivery is worth the difference of travel time and expense.

I have this product on auto delivery and do enjoy the coffee. In my last shipment i have found 5 empty pods – no coffee. Pictured are 2 of those pods as my husband threw out the others. I am hopeful that once the remaining packages are opened i will not find more empty pods. I was looking for a way to contact the seller but was unable find how to do that.

Great coffee but disappointed to receive empty pods.

Overall love this coffee, but it was a mess because one of the k cups had broke and spilled out so there were grinds everywhere.

I had read other reviews of people having an issue with their machine not being able to puncture the top well enough to get full strength brew. I started having the same issue! So today i was determined to figure this out. Instead of the regular, gentle way i close my lid to my keurig i tried to close it quickly with a bit more force and it worked! So that’s my tip for a perfect cup of this yummy coffee. Now i don’t need to switch to a different type of pod, i love not using so much plastic but still get a quick cup without refillable pods.

Great value
