I've been hearing about this for a while now.

Just checked my Go-To site for K-cups and the price hasn't changed yet. I normally order 12 boxes at a time and reorder when I open my last box.

Went ahead and ordered early this time, just in case.

No production problems with it.


That’s great but do you understand how supply and demand work? When there’s 1/3 less supply of Brazilian coffee coming into the US, what does that do to all the other supply that now needs to try and fill the gap?

We like Peet's coffee ... lots of locations around Seattle !

Agree with RogueJSK would rather pay a higher price for fresh beans.

I'd rather pay 33% more than drink year-old stale coffee.


Agreed.

It's definitely good. Alongside Cameron's Scandinavian Blend, Peet's Major Dickason (yep, it's Dickason, not Dickinson or Dickerson) is one of my two go-to "everyday/mass-produced" coffees.

I tend to have one of those two on hand most of the time, and then mix it up with a more expensive bag of fancier smaller batch beans from other roasters once a month or so.

Well I'm good to go, frozen beans mean more cold brew coffee will be available, maybe my prices will go down Razz

Been buying Peet's Major Dickason blend for several years and occasionally order a pound of another style from time to time as well. Usually try to time it for one of their 15 or 20% sales and get half dozen pounds at a time. Haven't seen many price changes for a while.

I've been buying Cafe Domingo K-Cups for the office for years.

Great morning coffee and not too much of a jolt with an afternoon cup too.

Another vote for Peet’s.

The wife is big on organic stuff, so I get Peet’s Organic Alameda Morning Blend.

Looks like a lot of support for Peets here... maybe an SF group buy! Big Grin

Big fan of Peet's, and Caribou's Holiday Roasts (aka Reindeer Blend for Caribou) here. I usually get at least four boxes of each when available.

We just received a couple weeks ago several pallets of Caribou fall blend Pumpkin Spice. It sells extremely well and we could always sell more than what they allocate to us. Reindeer holiday blend is usually not far behind. Another extremely good seller. A little inside info. Caribou has about a 9 month shelf date on it. Peet’s is 90 days. No particular reason that I know of they are both packaged and vacuum sealed the same way. I think it’s kind of a calling card marketing thing for Peets. None the less they are both top shelf coffee products. Starbucks use to really give us a run for the money in our area and they made some public gaffes most of us here have heard about that hurt them. I’d say Cameron’s is our biggest competitor now.

I am in total agreement with those who've stated they'd rather pay more than drink stale coffee. Life's too short!

I've never tried Peet's so I guess I should try some Major Dickason's?
