I prefer very strong coffee. Is this coffee either bold or dark roast?

It is a smoother flavor than Fog Chaser or French Roast. I would consider more of a medium roast. I think it is very good.

No. It is watery because they do not brew it in a standard k-cup. The water simple trickles through the grinds from top to bottom. Even the darker brews will be watery (more bitter, but watery).

I also like a full bodied coffee. I switched to decaf for health reasons; what I mostly found was namby pamby weak decaf. I ordered this item because it is organic and because of the word "gorilla," thinking it would be full-bodied...it isn't. It's a tasty medium bodied coffee though. If you prefer strong coffee, try one of the French or Italian roast decaf k-cups (Timothy's & Paul Newman, among others).

this is a very dark french roast. A couple of tablespoons of this ground coffee is enough for an entire pot!!

yes, its a dark roast but not bitter. Some dark roast coffees have a bitter taste but this one is smooth. I suggest that when you make it use a little less than normal because it can be strong in taste.

Use a rich dark roasted coffee. I like Arabica myself. If you use a dark roast and your coffee nectar. if this is too rich for you, youcan always cut it with a bit of water.

It is regular - not bold. I also have The Original House Donut Shop and that is medium roast - extra bold. This is also very good. Enjoy both.

Not really sure what you are asking but I will try to answer. You are able to buy mild coffee like light roast or breakfast blend and then you are able to buy stronger or bolder coffee like starbucks dark roast. If you want it to brew stronger you set it for the smaller cup size and if you want it weaker you set it for the larger cup size. Each Kcup has the same amount of coffee in it but changing the cup size on the brewer tells it how much water you want so more water is weaker and less water is stronger. When I do Iced coffee I put it on the smallest cup because when it brews some of the ice melts and waters it down a little. Hope this helps! I have to say this is the best invention ever!

I don't think the strength of the coffee is determined so much by the brewer as the coffee used. A dark roasted coffee used in the correct ratio to coffee and water should brew a rich, dark cup of coffee. That's my experience. I really like my little coffeemaker! It works very well.

I would say that the Rainforest Blend is more of a medium blend / flavor - If you are looking for a lighter blend, I would choose their Breakfast Blend - or want a little strong, I lLOVE their Espresso Roast. Cheers!

This coffee is a medium roast blend that my wife favors, while I enjoy the dark roast. We have subscribed to both for over a year now and do enjoy them.

I am not sure, because I like it stronger than my husband. All I know is that since I had the first cup in my daughter's home, that is the only coffee we use. It is delicious.

This stuff is a blend. Some blends are fine. This one is not my favorite. To me it is a little harsh and has too dark a roast. (The darker the roast, the harder it is to distinguish different coffees. It just tastes burnt.) My major objection is using the Kona label without specifying a blend. It's a bait and switch.

i love storng coffee and espresso. mine was too strong- but after 3 weeks it is perfect. maybe you are not putting the grind on the correct setting- also- best to use french roast, espresso beans- etc for strong flavors

This model does not have an additional feature to choose light to dark coffee. Your best option is to purchase a coffee that is made to brew strong, or simply add more coffee than normal to boost the strength!

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.

I like coffee with cream but I like this black. It doesn't taste like coffee but is satisfying like coffee/robust and smooth.

Major Dickinson is not Double Black Diamond Bold (Green Mountain), but close. A wonderful coffee though. I am also drinking the San Francisco Bay French Roast. New fave.
