AMERICA'S FAVORITE COFFEES

America’s Favorite Coffees --- BUT MAYBE NOT YOURS -- 
UNEEK 
Americans love their coffee. Three-quarters of adults drink
coffee and 58% say they drink coffee daily, according to the National Coffee
Association. Like other large consumer products in the U.S., a substantial
number of brands vie for market share — and for profit. And like other food and
beverage products, each brand tries to distinguish itself for consumers based
on taste, price, and in some cases, snob appeal.
Based on 2012 Harris Poll EquiTrend Rankings, 24/7 Wall St.
identified the most popular coffee brands that people make themselves. The
seven coffee companies with scores above the coffee product average measured by
Harris, did well based on familiarity, quality, purchase consideration and the
ability to generate buzz.
Green Mountain coffee brand topped the list. Its parent
company, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, is often viewed as a competitor to
Starbucks, which did not make the list. In fact, the brands that are rated
below average are probably better known than those rated above average.The
losers include Chock Full O’Nuts, Nescafe, Newman’s Own, Seattle’s Best, and
Starbucks.
Because Harris is not the only research firm that polls
people on coffee preferences, we looked at other opinion studies, including one
by Consumer Reports. Oddly enough, its preference ratings put Starbucks’ house
blend as the highest rated brand. The differences in the results show how
unpredictable research is when consumer preferences are considered.
Because of this, 24/7 also looked beyond subjective measures
of preference. We looked at price, based on the assumption that many coffee
drinkers consider value. We also examined annual revenue of each brand, as well
as the number of bags sold last year. We discovered that the most favored
brands are not inexpensive. Folgers Ground Coffee and Green Mountain, two of
the most preferred brands, cost well over $7 per bag. Millstone and Eight
O’Clock, while still popular, are less preferred, and each of these costs
little more than $5 per bag
The relationship of price to quality perception should not
come as a surprise. Starbucks has made a fortune selling expensive coffee at
trendy stores. Its customers are not complaining that their $3 cup of coffee
costs twice as much as it does at the neighborhood deli
24/7 Wall St. reviewed the 2012 Harris Poll EquiTrend
Rankings of coffee brands, which quantifies brand strength among consumers, to
identify the most popular coffees. We included dollar sales, change in dollar
sales from one year ago and unit sales of bagged ground coffee over the latest
52-week period in the United States provided by SymphonyIRI Group, a
Chicago-based market research firm. The group’s data reflects sales at
supermarkets, drugstores, gas/convenience stores and mass market retailers, but
excludes Walmart club stores, and liquor stores.
These are America’s favorite coffees.
7. Caribou
> Parent company: Caribou Coffee Company
> 1-yr. bags sold: 2,134,128
> 1-yr. sales: $16,793,690
> Price per bag: $7.87
Owned by the publicly traded Minneapolis-based Caribou
Coffee Company, the Caribou brand comes in at seventh in the Harris poll.
Founded in 1992, Caribou is the second most expensive coffee on this list at
$7.87 a bag. The brand also has the second-lowest annual dollar sales of any
coffee brand on the list at less than $17 million. In its most recently
reported quarter, Caribou’s parent company sales were $80.5 million for all its
brands, up 11% from the same quarter in the prior year. In its coffee blend
reviews, Consumer Reports gave Caribou’s “daybreak morning” blend especially
poor reviews.
6. Maxwell House
> Parent company: Kraft Foods, Inc.
> 1-yr. bags sold:73,285,570
> 1-yr. sales: $467,080,600
> Price per bag: $6.37
A Kraft Foods product, Maxwell House’s 52-week sales through
April 15 was in excess of $467 million, making it the second best selling
ground coffee in the U.S. Despite strong sales, Maxwell House has performed
poorly in coffee blend ratings issued by Consumer Reports, as none of the four
blends (decaffeinated, breakfast, original roast medium, and master blend mild)
was given a “good” rating. However, at $6.37 a bag, Maxwell House’s brand value
is likely bolstered by a middling price in conjunction with customer
familiarity with both the brand and its parent company.
5. Eight O’Clock
> Parent company: Tata Global Beverages
> 1-yr. bags sold:13,519,080
> 1-yr. sales: $74,800,170
> Price per bag: $5.53
First sold in 1859 by the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea
Company (now A&P), the Eight
O’Clock brand’s longevity is unmatched by any other ground
coffee on this list. The brand has been sold under the present trademark since
1919. In the 1920s through the 1950s, the company claims it was the most
popular ground coffee brand in the U.S. Since then, however, its popularity has
declined. Since 2006, the brand has been
owned by Tata Global Beverages and, as of 2010, was still the best-selling
whole bean coffee, according to the company.
4. Millstone
> Parent company: J.M. Smucker Company
> 1-yr. bags sold: 3,469,959
> 1-yr. sales: $18,187,170
> Price per bag: $5.24
Millstone was started in 1981 by Phil Johnson, who sold
arabica coffee beans to shops in the Seattle area. The brand offers a large
variety of roasts, from espressos to French roasts and appeals to customers
through organic and fair trade offerings. The brand has performed poorly in the
last year, with dollar sales down 10.94% and bag sales down 19.69%. The brand’s
average price per bag has risen 52 cents in this same time span.
3. Dunkin’ Donuts
> Parent company: J.M. Smucker Company
> 1-yr. bags sold: 21,499,550
> 1-yr. sales: $190,710,400
> Price per bag: $8.87
Well known for its restaurants, which offer breakfast, baked
goods and coffee, the Dunkin’ Donuts brand is owned by the Dunkin’ Brands
Group. Dunkin’ Donuts, which has 6,772 franchised restaurants in 35 states, has
licensed J.M. Smucker to sell its ground coffee throughout the U.S. Dunkin’ is
the most expensive coffee on this list. Its offerings have been given mixed
reviews by Consumer Reports — its dark roast is well reviewed and its
decaffeinated blend is poorly reviewed. In the last year, dollar sales have
increased 11.03% as the average price per bag has risen by 83 cents.
2. Folgers
> Parent company: J.M. Smucker Company
> 1-yr. bags sold:114,784,800
> 1-yr. sales: $852,350,800
> Price per bag: $7.43
The best-selling ground coffee brand, Folgers sold over 114
million bags of coffee in the past year. The sales don’t include the “Gourmet
Selections” and “Coffee Singles” products, which account for an additional
$18.6 million and $19 million in sales, respectively. The brand’s offerings
received mixed reviews from Consumer Reports, with its house blend receiving a
“good” rating and its breakfast, classic and decaf blends receiving “fair”
ratings. Though the brand was founded in 1850, it has been part of the J.M.
Smucker Company only since November, 2008.
1. Green Mountain
> Parent company: Green Mountain Coffee Roasters
> 1-yr. bags sold:1,844,802
> 1-yr. sales: $14,422,080
> Price per bag: $7.82
Founded in Waitsfield, Vermont in 1981, Green Mountain has been
manufactured in Waterbury, Vermont, since shortly thereafter. Its parent
company, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters is better-known for its Keurig brands,
which account for much of the revenue at the parent company. In the most
recently reported quarter, revenue at Green Mountain’s parent company rose 37%
to $885 million.
Despite a relatively high price per bag of $7.82, Green
Mountain’s 52 week sales are less than $15 million. This makes Green Mountain
the smallest brand by sales of all brands studied by Harris. The single Green
Mountain blend reviewed by Consumer Reports, its signature Nantucket blend
medium roast, received the third-highest rating.

I am not much of a coffee drinker -- my mom would would only give us coffee to wash down castor oil -- so I could never stomach the stuff after that until many many years later -- and I am talking 40+ ha ha
I love the smell of coffee and can only drink the decaf with lots of sugar and the amaretto flavored cream - so as unhealthy as that is I am glad that I can "refrain" for the most part -- lol
I am a little surprised by the statistics and that Starbucks and Gevalia did not make the grade
Now I do love me some Hot Chocolate though !! UNEEK

Terbo -- darn I just lost my post by a "click" with no recovery success - that is such a bummer !!
Hot Chocolate has evolved to new heights Terbo -- oh my - there is Dark Chocolate - Rich Chocolate - Mini Marshmallows - and more -- I love mine rich with cool whip and a little half & half --
I have noticed - and you might want to also when you go shopping that the marketing folks are really on top of their game -- Pay attention and compare the brands as well at the "net contents" per package -- it is a shocker
They are getting shrewder every day - less contents and increased prices --
I remember making hot chocolate from scratch as a child -- there was not much "instant" anything that I remember but that horrible Carnation Instant Dry Milk -- oh that was some nasty stuff -- lol
I am having so much fun - darn shame it is going to end - duty is calling my name -- will be back later -- UNEEK

A true New Englander, I love my Vermont Coffee Roasters coffee. I am especially fond of their Black Magic, my current favorite. It makes great iced coffee.

I do remember the 'Carnation Instant Powdered Milk- Reminded me of chalk and water- When we were younger, around 6-7 years old, my folks would get a large box of that stuff, and I still remember the mix ratio of one and a third cups of dry milk, to two quarts of water,and one quart of real milk, mixed up in a gallon jug- My dad got tired of paying the 'High' price for real milk back then- Nasty stuff it was-The cat would smell it, and then turn sideways,and then proceed to try to 'Bury' it-Smart cat-That was the only thing that was funny about 'Carnation Instant Powdered Milk'-

Not much of a coffee drinker myself but when I do need a boost in the morning I swing by McYuks and get a Large Hot Vanilla Latte with Whole Milk!
Super yummy and I get tons of work done that day.

I had my first experience with Postum about a year ago and fell in love with it - left the friends house and went to just about every grocery store for the 125 mile trip home and never found it --
When I got home on got on line I found out it had been discontinued -- what a bummer that was !!!!!
I had a recipe somewhere but cant remember where that "somewhere" is -- does anyone remember postum? It tasted just like coffee but was healthy - ok back to the salt mines --

HOMEMADE "POSTUM"
Printed from COOKS.COM
1 qt. fine ground wheat
1 pt. coarse ground corn meal
1/2 c. molasses or dark syrup
Mix
the wheat, corn-meal, and syrup. Rub them in the palms of the hand
until it is well mixed. Put it into shallow baking pans and brown in a
slow oven until it is a rich dark brown. It must be stirred often for
even browning. Don't try to hurry the process or it will burn. When it
is done, cool and store in a sealed jar or canister. Use like any cereal
coffee. I use 2 tablespoons coffee for each cup and a half of water. It
may be boiled or it can be made in an electric coffee-maker.With hot milk this makes a nice evening drink.
If
you can't buy ground wheat, you can sort whole grains of wheat and
grind them in your blender. However, take them out before it grinds them
into a flour.

Gluten Free Explained by Dr. Peter Gail, President of Dandy Blend:
"Dandy
Blend contains Barley & Rye but is Gluten FREE. Gluten is made up
primarily of two proteins that are not water soluble. Dandy Blend is
made my roasting the roots and grains and then steeping them in hot
water to remove all the water-soluble components, draining off the
water, and spray-drying it in special chambers. The
fine brown powder that is left after the drying process is the Dandy
Blend. Gluten and any other substances that are not water soluble are
left in the "grounds" and tossed away."

"COMPARE OUR PRICES & SAVE!!"
FACTS ABOUT CAFFEINE AND COFFEE
"The
health problems which caffeine can cause fill entire books! Included
are such problems as accelerating aging, weakening the immune system,
impairing digestion, and causing blood sugar fluctuations which
contribute to weight gain and mood disorders.
There
are more than 208 acids in coffee that contribute to indigestion and
acid imbalance. These result in buildup of toxic waste, cardiovascular
disease, immune disorders, arthritis and rheumatism. Uric acid produced
by the breakdown of caffeine can cause kidney stones and gout, and can
aggravate prostate conditions.
Caffeine
and the acids in coffee also inhibit absorption of B vitamins. Women
who drink coffee are more subject to osteoporosis and anemia, leading to
fatigue and illness...WHETHER IT BE IN COFFEE OR COLA, CAFFEINE IS
HARDLY SOMETHING YOU WOULD WANT TO BE POURING INTO YOUR BODY EACH
DAY..."

A company has acquired the rights to Postum and are working on bringing it to market once again. It's not available yet, but if you go to http://postum.com/ and send a contact form they will let you know when it becomes available.

I also remember instant powdered disGUSTING milk as a kid...yuck!!! 
I am surprised Starbucks didn't have a higher ranking, Uneek, but it looks like the poll was about people's favorites to make at home. The last time I went to Starbucks apparently it had been a LONG time since I was there last...it was $6.00 just for me!
Dunkin' Donuts does have good coffee that can be brewed from home. Yum. I tend to buy Folgers or Maxwell house in the can~reasonably priced and not too shabbie. SHABBIE get it?! SHABS...ok...tough crowd!
