    Best whole bean coffee for a percolator

    I love the Whole Bean Breakfast Blend by Olde Brooklyn Coffee. I purchased a 5 lb sack because like most folks these days I find myself working from home and now that I am not in the office I needed a new coffee delivery system.

    Great taste and love the big bag.

    I drink a lot of coffee. I also prefer to grind whole beans myself, as I believe the flavor is fresher. Since the retail prices for most coffee in stores have risen considerably, finding a lower-cost option was welcome. I found this Olde Brooklyn item while searching here and I'm happy I did.

  • Grackal Verified purchase ★★★★★

    Great taste and low acidity means it won't cause GERD distress. Delighted I found this coffee!

    I love this coffee! I have acid reflux issues, so the low acid content of this coffee means I can drink it without gastric distress. The flavor is perfectly balanced, a genuine delight. I had some trepidation ordering a 5 lb. bag on my first purchase, in case I didn't like it, but the PR doesn't lie.

    Drinkable

    I’ve been buying this for over a year. It’s a decent value for the money and the flavor is good. It gives me some early caffeine jitters more than other coffee so I might be mixing up my order a little bit in the future.
