K-cup top says: Dark Roast Extra Bold but is it really? Or just reg French Roast? No 'extra bold' mentioned in description.

I think it has a extra bold taste I like the strong flavor especially in morning

It is extra bold -- very nice French Roast -- I have it for breakfast every day. If you buy a new Keurig 500 series brewer, beware -- these cups don't work in them, even those with the Keurig logo on them!

I would say "bold" but not "extra bold". As an example, I drink it when I want something a more potent than Donut Shop, but not as strong as typical extra bolds.

Dunno if you're still monitoring this, but if four cups will do it for you in the mornings this may be your machine. Experiment with different roasts to get the flavor you like. I've found going to a darker roast gives me the strength I like even less than a full carafe. It'll brew those four cups faster than the Keurig does one with no noise.

FYI: The darker the roast, the less caffeine the coffee has. So, if you are looking for the greatest caffeine boost, opt for lighter roasts. Medium roasts have the best caffeine to flavor ratio, for me anyways.

Yes - there is an unflavored decaf and about 1/2 the coffee is flavored and 1/2 is unflavored. The unflavored has a range of light roast, medium, French,bold & extra bold. It's a good sampler -

We recommend that for a strong, intense cup, you should select an Extra Bold K-Cup® Pack, as they have up to 30% more ground coffee than regular varieties.

Thanks for the info. I contact Keurig customer service and they confirmed it is the same machine. They just changed the B to a K to stand for Keurig (marketing purposes).

The matter of caffeine content by roast isn't as simple as darker coffees having less caffeine, depending on how you brew, grind, and measure, either can be said to have more but the difference is so negligible that it's not really a factor worth much note. The choice of dark roast for this coffee was probably a decision made for taste, since this coffee is almost certainly artificially enhanced the dark roast makes for a stronger coffee taste to mask any additions to the grounds.

It's a rich dark roast and slightly less expensive alternative to French roast. We have been buying it for over a year now and actually prefer it to French roast.

No, not really. The older style green labels have been replaced by the way. In any case, "DeCaf" will be listed on the top and is noticed easily. I love the coffee and I have tried all French Roast K-Cups on Amazon. Tully's works for me.

No, I really like the coffee. The only thing I can tell you is set it on the bold setting and see if you like it better.

It doesn't say on the product description but based on taste I would say it is a light roast.

I usually drink French roast until I tried Peet's. Definitely dark roast, maybe middle of extra-bold range.

Yes. It says "medium roast" on the ones that I purchased. The full description is Caribou Blend, medium roast. If you like full flavor (like French Roast) this is not it. This is weaker than I like, but certainly not "light roast."

No - they are k-cups ready to put in the machine. The regular is like half filled with ground coffee -a normal cup of coffee, not too weak and not too strong. Bold and extra bold are nearly full k-cups and they are stronger in taste. I can handle the bold but not the extra bold which is too strong for me. I hope this helps.

I am receiving my new coffee maker today, and i was wondering what kind of coffee beans to use, I came accross Kirkland Signature beans at outlet store for $3 for 2 lbs. and they are def. I mix with French Roast, and this makes a good cup, but the good buy at $3 is no more.

Dear "L", I do not know the percentage of coffee to the sweet cream added to the pumpkin spice, the base coffee is 100% Arabica coffee. How that rates as medium or strong or dark roast I have no idea, however there is a phone #for more information at Green Mountain Coffee 1-888-879-4627, or you can continue on-line @ GreenMountainCoffee.comLuck to you and let me know what you find out in your comparisons...I've already finished off the cocoa so I don't have the box to gain any information for you there. Sincerely, B Seawright
