Grinders Coffee Crema Blend

Undrinkable – I have tried many different coffee beans and too often they are disappointing. These are not just disappointing, but the coffee is totally disgusting and undrinkable. Strangely enough the 'rich espresso' variant of Grinders is actually very good. Show details

Crema mellow, I use mix – We purchased a new delonghi dinamica plus automatic coffee machine (left a review for that). After adjustments, love it, nice and hot. That was half the battle, the other half was finding coffee beans from supermarket (to get pricing specials). Tried quite a lot of different brands. Grinders crema is part of what I found best. Coffee is a… Read more

personal taste. If you’re an espresso drinker, or just plain black, I don’t think this may be for you, the Organic or another brand may be better.

To satisfy my wife’s taste of more mellow and my taste for stronger flavour of just coffee, I ended up doing a bean mix of 50/50 grinders organic and grinders crema on a 3 out of 4 coffee strength grind. (3.5 grind on machine), to find a taste we both like.

I found for my taste, crema by itself doesn’t have a strong enough coffee coffee taste, perhaps that’s the point.

Grinders coffee beans "CREMA" – The grinders are just exstremly fresh and lovely smooth creamy coffee mid strength, definitely not super strong never bitter. I've had a few different ones now and this is definitely one to stick with .. thank you grinders Show details

Best Coffee I've had – This coffee is smooth, rich and aromatic and I would highly recommend this coffee. I also bought a grinder and this is the Best store bought coffee I've ever had!  Show details

Have Grinders Downgraded their Cafitaly Coffee Pods – I have been using Grinders Cafitaly pods for many months now (in particular, the double expresso). In July they ran out of stock, so I purchased another Cafitaly compatible brand (absolute rubbish). More recently the Grinders Double expresso returned to the shelves - so I stocked up. HOWEVER I suspect they have changed their coffee supplier as… Read more

the previous excellent number 1 taste has disappeared and downgraded to just a "good" cup of coffee. Previously, it had the taste of a coffee purchased it the best coffee houses - well rounded "cappuccino" flavour. Now its got that burnt bean taste. Grinders, please go back to your former number 1 position - even if we must pay a touch more

Average – Having read so many good reviews I finally tried it. Average aroma, has a taste that has something chemical about it. I drink straight black coffee and it doesn't cut it, if you are a milk and sugar person it would probably be OK and good value, but using filtered pure tank water and just black it's not good. Show details

Grinders compostable Nespresso compatible coffee capsules – Would not advise using this brand in Nespresso Creatista Plus. These capsules are not the same shape as the Nespresso ones and jam when you try to lower the lever. I have used both Double Espresso and Espresso variety in my Caffitaly machine and really enjoyed them. I thought I would try the same variety in my Nespresso Creatista Plus. These are… Read more

definitely not the same strength in the Nespresso compatible version. They have a very weak and watery taste. Would most certainly not buy again.

Avoid Grinders coffee beans mate! – I thought I would sample GRINDERS. It was the freshest of what was available on the shelf … I have a top end grinding machine and coffee machine and know how to make coffee. I’ve tried 2 days in a row, adjusting the grind, but I have reached this conclusion: these beans are tasteless, bitter and amount to a brick in the head without flavour. It… Read more

doesn’t matter what you do to adjust the grind. These beans are now going into the bin.

If you cannot source local freshly ground beans, VITTORIA is now the best. (CAMPOS excellent, but hard to get around here.) Local and fresh even better.

Grinders Crema Caffitaly pods - love them! – Love it! Taste great! Lots of crema - a proper coffee that I enjoy I dont have a proper coffee machine to try their beans/grinds, but pods work well for me Show details

Great to deal with – great service and communication. machine had an issue and they replaced and were extremely good about the whole process and great follow up. couldn't be happier thanks again. Show details

lovely tasting coffee – i bought the beans for my breville barista coffee machine ,couldn't get it right for it to work properly have used the ground coffee no problem .i really like the taste of crema one

Great taste, but the grind in the Ground version is to inconsistent to use – One of our favourite tasting coffees, but as we do not yet own a good grinder we buy the ground version and its all over the place. Mix of course, medium, fine, extra fine. Makes it very hard to use on the stove top. Sadly moved onto something more reliable until we have our own grinder and can buy the beans. Show details

Only Grinders Coffee clogs my Caffitaly capsule machine – The only brand that can clog my Caffitaly capsule machine is the Grinders brand. And that brand is only marginally better than the Woolworths brand for taste. This fault is a real nuisance. I wish Coca-Cola Amatil would fix the problem. Show details

Converted and Loving it – I've been converted from a more expensive brand. This Grinders Crema blend is a very smooth and tasty coffee. No bitter after taste that you get in some other brands. I'm converted. It's Great. Show details

Wrong picture of product - but amazing beans – The beans are fantastic in my Breville espresso machine, 10/10 for taste. I have been lucky enough to go to many amazing coffee shops and this is a cost-effective high-quality alternative Show details

Delicious – One of the few fair trade but delicious coffees I can get at supermarket. It matters to me that I’m not buying a product that exploits people and I love that it’s local. Love this coffee. Show details

Looks good, smells and tastes of nothing – I first bought coffee from grinders in the 80's, and remember fondly the aroma in the car on the way home, the silky creama and deep rich flavour. I recently tried their Espresso beans and found them without aroma and when brewed produced a reasonable looking almost flavorless coffee. Money wasted. The bag of beans was fresh, had just been opened and ground fine. Never again. Show details

Trial and error – People rubbishing the quality of Grinders coffee are very unfair. İt takes quite a bit of trials and errors before you'll get a decent coffee. To start with, not all coffee machines are the same. Some machines will not have enough pressure and they will clog. Capsules are hopeless as you have no control and they'll never match a shot pulled out… Read more

of an espresso machine. Its best to by the beans to grind your own and adjust the coarseness of your grind. Most beans can produce a decent shot of coffee providing you have a good machine and the right grind. Sorry but those people knocking the brand after only one or two tries don't know what they're doing.

Best capsules so far for me – Have a Nespresso capsule machine but never liked any of their capsules nor the price and postage fees. Tried lots of other compatible ( but unremarkable) capsules. Recently discovered Grinder Expresso capsules at Coles and love the taste. I drink it black with half teaspoon of sugar and feel like I'm back in Rome.

perfect – this coffee is by far the best ive had i have made over 30 cups so far from a bag 1kg coffee beans and have not got bad coffee yet even after grinding coffee letting it sit for a week in the open it is still fresh just perfect

Clogs my machine – Grinders ground coffee tastes OK, but it must be too fine a grind as it clogs up my Breville machine every time I use it, i.e. it reduces the pour to barely a drip feed. Ive resorted to mixing it with a coarser grind to prevent it.

Grinders Coffee - Yuk – I thought i'd try some Grinders Crema pods for my Nespresso machine. They smelt burnt out of the box and tasted burnt also. My wife and adult children all agreed. Don't buy them again. Horrible. Batch No 22488037D 094 Expiry: Apr 18.

My favourite so far! – We're buying the Crema capsules for the Caffitaly machine and they are really nice. I've tried just about all flavours in that range and they are the smoothest. All my friends and Family love them too. Very happy with them

Don't bother – The aroma of brewing coffee is one of the small pleasures in life. These pods had a strange smell I'd disturbingly describe as being vaguely like stale toilet water. The taste was better than I'd imagined, which isn't saying much, but was overly bitter and weak when considering the description on the box. I understand all coffee drinkers have… Read more

different tastes but I fail to see how rich and smooth is an appropriate description. To cap it all off inserting into our Nespresso machine was a task I've not faced with other non-official pods. As way of context, the pods I most often consume are Nespresso Rosabaya and Fortissio Lungo.

Delicious, smooth and not too strong – Having tried many brands of beans in my Gaggia machine over the past 8 years (including boutique brands like Yahava and off the shelf Vittioria etc). I have to say Grinders is probably the best I have tasted, smells great, no bitterness and a lovely smooth flavour. I note some people have commented that it is very weak but I always have my machine turned to strongest setting and it was perfect strength for me.

Very disappointing – I like to support local products whenever I can, so seeing that Grinders was prepared in Melbourne I decided to give it a go. Never again! Very weak, hardly any flavour and only a faint burnt smell on opening the pack.
