Maxwell House Original Roast Ground Coffee — 33.1 oz Canister

Customer reviews

1. I I Love Labs 5/5

   Our daily choice for decades

   My husband and I brew several pots every day and this has been our steady go-to for about 40 years. We usually stick to classics rather than flavored blends, though a seasonal sweet flavor now and then is nice. Maxwell House has stayed reliable in taste and quality through the years. We measure each 14-cup pot with roughly a one-third cup scoop of grounds. Long ago I learned from a restaurant job to add a tiny pinch of salt to the grounds — it seems to take the edge off bitterness, and I’ve kept doing it. The morning aroma is wonderful, and I enjoy it black or with a splash of cream. The medium roast is our favorite.

2. K K.E. Kraus 5/5

   My go-to roast for delivery orders

   I’ve favored this roast for years and my shipped orders arrive reliably. It’s exactly the familiar flavor I look for in a daily coffee.

3. J Jennfier Leleux 5/5

   Dependable, everyday medium roast

   This roast is a steady, everyday option with a smooth, traditional coffee flavor that isn’t overly bitter. The large can lasts a long time for daily drinkers and it brews consistently, delivering the familiar Maxwell House profile I expect. Good value overall.

4. E EMP 5/5

   Generous amount with expected aroma

   The amount and taste are exactly what I wanted. The can gives off a pleasant smell when opened, and the blend hits the note I expect. I’ll buy it again.

5. E Eileen M. Myers 5/5

   Great flavor and sensible quantity

   I enjoy this coffee and find the medium blend suits my preference for black coffee. The product delivers consistent taste and the can’s size stretches further than many alternatives, offering strong everyday value compared with other options.

6. T Theresa C. 4/5

   Solid, repeat purchase

   Satisfying all the way to the last cup. I’ll pick it up again when I need more.

7. J Jamie Staley 5/5

   Rich, smooth, and versatile

   This exceeded my expectations. It brews into a rich, smooth cup without bitterness and smells great while brewing. It balances strength well — not overpowering, not weak — and works equally well black or with cream. No burnt or acidic aftertaste, and it holds up for iced coffee too. A reliable, high-quality everyday coffee that I’ll order again.

8. J Jim in SoDak 5/5

   A loud, playful endorsement (and a confession)

   I’ll be dramatic: this coffee is terrific and feels very American in spirit. People joke that it tastes like freedom — and it does have a bold, straightforward character. Full disclosure: I don’t personally rely on coffee for energy; I run on bottled soda. But for those who drink coffee, this one is smooth, robust, and comes in a generous 33.1 oz canister that keeps you supplied for a while.
