Must've been old
My son said the coffee didn't taste as good/strong as it usually did. In fact, it tasted weak. When I looked at the pods, I realized the pods must've been old, as the newer ones have the word "Senseo" printed right on each pod. These didn't. Which is really disappointing as they're not cheap and I now have alot of them.

Darker, stronger, please!
I love the convenience of Senseo pods--pop 'em in, fill the water tank, and press the start button. The dark roast is my favorite, but I wish Senseo would come out with a French roast and other darker, richer varieties. I know there's a Senseo espresso now, but it requries purchasing an espresso pod holder, so I haven't tried it yet. Perhaps it would work in my regular two-pod holder if I used one espresso pod and one dark roast pod...haven't tried it yet. That works with other pod brands that I sometimes use with the Senseo pods--one of each in the two-pod holder. I tried Senseo Sumatra, but didn't go back; less satisfying than the dark roast. We go through six to eight Senseo pods daily at my house, so I take advantage of the handy automatic order process through Amazon. I love serving Senseo dark roast coffee to guests. They're always impressed by the foamy head and fresh-made taste and aroma. It's good coffee, but I sure would like more darker, stronger varieties.
