It's a lot better than the starbucks filter coffee unless you have an impacted bowel then I would go with Starbucks.

Has anyone taken into account the fact different people like different things/tastes???

Think your in the wrong forum for that here!

Different people like different things, personally I can't stand 3FE, far too bitter. But others will crawl over hot coals to get a shot of it.

I love the Nespresso machine we have in work, people on here would rather drink Maxwell House.

That's whats great about personal taste, it's a personal thing. The problem is when people forget that.....:D

[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]McDonald's Coffee is Fresh
McDonald's locations and franchises brew fresh coffee every 30 minutes. You'll never get coffee that's been sitting out for hours or getting stale.
McDonald's Coffee is Gourmet
Surprisingly, McDonald's coffee is gourmet. Gaviña is the coffee supplier for McDonald's and they use a blend of arabica coffee beans grown in Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, and Costa Rica.[/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]McDonald's Coffee is Medium Roast
McDonald's uses a medium roasted blend rather than dark roasted coffee. The lighter roast brings out the coffee's nutty, chocolaty undertones without causing excessive bitterness or a burnt flavor.

Mr Magnolia

How freshly roasted are the beans?

Old thread but saw McDonald’s coffee mentioned

I like a cappuccino from there now and again. Think it’s quite good. Noticed the price is different each place, I always thought McDonald’s had set price before now. Google says it’s common they charge variable prices in their restaurants

I’m based in Cork

Cost of large cappuccino. €2.55 in Blackpool
€2.60 in Ballincollig
€2.70 in Fermoy

I’d feel 15 cent is a fair difference for exact same product

But 3FE is a roaster not a single type of coffee. They have a large range of different coffees. You can't just make such a blanket statement like that on a forum like this and not be corrected.

Seems like you can, for well over a year or so.

Yes - 3FE; nice image and all that. I've tried several of their coffee.

Result: their blender's choice does not agree with my palate. Different part of the spectrum altogether, whatever they do to it. And I'm a lifelong coffee-head, no beginner.

So, not a fan.
