1. Real opinion

   Posted by Unknown

   So being a lover of real tasting coffee and not starbucks that tastes like ash trays and the worst coffee besides a typical restaurant house coffee swill that is acid in a cup, I get my coffee beans from small roasters with organic beans, small batch that actually care about coffee unlike the places I listed above. this coffee substitute is ok. But you definitely can not brew it like regular coffee, not in a coffee pot, not in a french press, and definitely not in a commercial grade espresso machine of which I own and use. With that being said, you must bring this to a boil then turn the heat down and let it simmer for at the least 15 minutes (10-20 minutes works well too) then use your french press to get rid of the grounds.
   then it is ok, I drink my coffee black when it tastes good, if it is sub par then I find that I have to add cream, or make it very milky.
   So I discovered through many trial and errors that this is the best way to make it taste good. I still can't drink it plain, I need to add cream, or in this case make it a latte.
   If you don't make it the way I have learned in my opinion it tastes very much like what an ash tray smells like, or someone who smokes and their stench just lingers around them, that is my opinion of this product, but if you boil it that horrible scent and taste will go away.
   But If you are a smoker then by all means you might totally love this product brewed.
   It does make your kitchen stink, there is just something about it... but doing my cleanse for the next 3 months this will be there if I need a coffee like taste.
   
   I also found that adding cocoa nibs and cinnamon to the pot when boiling gives it an even better flavor, but I still need to make it creamy.
   
   Due to its healthy antioxidants I give this 4 stars

2. Won me over

   Posted by anon

   I'm a die hard espresso drinker that's lived all over the coffee world drinking 'the hard stuff', the blacker and hotter the better. I was skeptical this was going to deliver the bitter taste I love and that satisfying punch.
   I thought a simple simmer in a pan would give me the rawest first taste and we'd go up from there. First sip I was thinking nope - too watery, next! - but then the after-notes kicked in and I quickly took another sip. Hmmmm, yes, bitter, slightly cinnamon without sickly sweet taste, interesting almost chocolate-like notes. Added a bit more heated up much hotter and the flavor definitely opened up.
   If you need to jump and jive for work this might not do the trick but it defnitely grows on you and you could always do a half/half blend with real caffeine. I like chewing on the nutty grains, it does give a more 'sustainable' energy than coffee, feels as if it is actually a nourishing beverage as part of your breakfast meal. I found adding a bit more to my brew gives me the murky darkness I like and there's also a thicker texture much closer to an espresso grind. This is good stuff, I'll keep drinking it.*

3. the only coffee subsititute that tastes like coffee

   Posted by Calvin Moon

   I ca not drink coffee for several reasons. Caffeine was not the problen, coffee was. Tried ovaltine, cocoa and the others, they put sugar in each. Finally found Maya Bean, costs more, doesnt smell like coffee, but brewed, some cream and splends and its impossible to tell the difference.
   
   Youcc people with unexplained daily runs, it may be your coffee caffeine fee or not. MAYA BEAN is the answer.*

   I recommend trying this product if you're interested in a coffee substitute that has a somewhat coffee like taste (but of course not completely like it). *

I use faithfully every morning Twelve rivers a mushroom formula from Raw Forest foods...this formula with Capomo is a marriage made in heaven....it gives dimension to this beverage....just a little honey...and enjoy... *

8. You can drink this at midnight!

   Posted by Unknown

   This is a real coffee substitute, without the jitters of caffeine. It is strong and somewhat bitter like coffee, and so has a cleansing effect on the liver, that tea does not do. It feels strongly anti-oxidant. It is good hot or at room temperature. **

9. Better Than Coffee for Me !

   Posted by terry

   Delicious coffee alternative. Rich tasking and satisfying with after notes. I have tried other substitutes but none satisfy like this. I believe it also helps with digestion and intestinal problems as well as has been my experience. I am permanently switched over and am a fan although I do find it a tad bit expensive.
   This one is a winner.**

10. coffee Replacement

    Posted by Tamera

    I love Capomo! My doctor tested me for food sensitivities where it was found that Coffee was high on the list. She recommended Capomo which has helped my transition to stop drinking coffee. Now I just love drinking Capomo as much as I did coffee if not more so there is no going back for me. **
