beaniac Organic Bean Me Up Coffeehouse Blend, Medium Roast, Single Serve Compostable K Cup Coffee Pods, Organic Arabica Coffee, Keurig Brewer Compatible, 30 Count

I really like these coffee pods! I was gifted a keurig and loved how convenient my morning coffee became since I'm always running late. I was using the bulk Costco k-cups but felt horrible about the amount of plastic being used everyday. I debated trying metal k-cups that you fill or reusing the plastic cup with a new seal, but that negates the convenience of a keurig and I didn't want to have to prep 7 reusable cups each week. I have adhd and know I would forget until I went to make my coffee in the morning and would then run more late lol. Finding compostable and affordable k-cups can be hard since most are super expensive. These are great! I've had no problems with them exploding like other have had and even put my keurig heat to high. I use these mostly during the week since I have a nespresso that I use on the weekends, but will still use these if I want hot coffee, and these make great tasting coffee! They're probably not blow your mind good but are perfect for your daily coffee boost. The only down side is the 72 pack comes individually packaged in plastic, which is such a bummer. Because of this I buy the 30 pack, which is more expensive. I wish they would reconsider their packaging (hoping they read this - put the packs of 15 in better sealed packaging instead individually). The 30 pack comes in 2 packages of 15. I put one pack at a time in a vacuum sealed container and take one pod out each day to use. This works great for keeping the pods fresh! I put the used pods in a compostable bag in a small compost bin and take it out to my yard waste bin at the end of the week. This system works perfect for me! Overall, I really like these pods and no longer feel guilty about the amount of plastic I'm using everyday!! Definitely recommend!

UPDATED REVIEW: Well, I made my second cup of coffee and this time it came out smelling and looking like a great cup of coffee. I brewed it differently this time. Even though it technically is a coffee pod and I still used the coffee pods adapter, I used my coffee brew button that said it was ground coffee to trick my coffee pot into brewing the lid differently. (don’t ask me how the coffee pot is smart enough to know the difference…hahaha!). Anyhoo, this coffee tastes GREAT! Medium Roast, and smooth taste. I love it and I will be purchasing more. Oh, and I had NO problems with the coffee pod opening when brewing. FIRST REVIEW: I received this medium roast coffee today, 3/4/2025, and I was so excited to try it that I made a cup of coffee right away. After the brewing process the coffee brewed very weak. It almost looked like a cup of tea, as I could see through the coffee to the bottom of my white mug. I was SO disappointed. I added 1/2 & 1/2 cream, as I usually do for my coffee and it was so light it actually looked like I just made hot water and cream. So I poured it out and made a different cup of coffee. I am going to make another cup of coffee now, and I will give this “beaniac, beam me up” coffee pod a second chance. I will be back with an update.

Not too weak not too strong. Pairs really well with various creamers and sweeteners. Very cost effective. I will purchase it again.

Not much to say on this one. This is a great tasting coffee. For organiz, its a great value and plenty of pods that should last you for sometime if you are a "cup of day" person. he pods come sealed in a single large bag rather than individually wrapped or stored in a more protective container. Once the original seal is broken, the coffee is exposed to air, and as with any coffee, prolonged exposure leads to a decline in flavor and freshness. Coffee is highly sensitive to air, moisture, and light — and without proper storage, it quickly loses its aromatic oils and vibrant taste. In this case, the first few pods taste rich and full-bodied, but by the time you reach the last few, the flavor noticeably fades. If the packaging better protected each pod or offered resealable options, this would easily be a five-star product. As it stands, it’s a great-tasting coffee with room for improvement in maintaining freshness over time.

Will be honest, I originally Podcaster this for the clever name of "Bean Me Up." Being a nerd, this caught my eye. And at the time I was desperate for coffee and it could be here tomorrow morning before I woke up so I could crawl out of bed, sick my hand out the door and grab. I managed to shuffle to my kitchen and make a glorious cup of life juice. Once I internalized my life blood and could open my eyes, I made a second cup and really tasted it. It was pretty good. Nice flavor and brewed easily. I've kept ordering this because it gets here quick, tastes good, and the compostable less-waste pods are easy to use and I don't hate myself for enjoying them. I would say to store them in an air tight container instead of the silver bags for freshness, but other than that I think they are a good value.

I like the flavor a lot. I like the compostable pods. The only downside is that about every third pod is wasted because the top won’t puncture properly and I only get hot water. I’ve tried to re-use it but it doesn’t work. This is a relatively new problem. I’ve bought them in the past without issue. I may have to switch brands. I don’t like waste.
