I see that Amazon sells the bags, too, but, remember that coffee has a limited shelf life. After you buy a 32 oz bag of beans, as we do, 4/box, it sits for awhile until you use it to make a cup/carafe. After 6 months even the beans start to go stale.
Ground coffee Has to be packaged stale. Once you grind the beans they begin to decay and let off gasses, which can explode the packaging. Once stale, they are stable.
Honestly, I don't care to drink a cup from a can of ground.
Even the gas stations that sell coffee to go use a grinder, and some, like Pilot make really good coffee for on the road.

I guess I have no taste. Ground coffee is ok with me. I’ve ground the beans before and it was good. But already ground is ok. I didn’t know that about off gassing and exploding coffee. LOL

I probably saw it on this forum recently but I can identify with the barrista at a coffee shop asking her manager "Do we have a flavor 'cup of coffee'?"

I can’t use pre ground fast enough to enjoy it that way. Fresh ground is so much better than old ground coffee.

I wouldn't know but I'm very much liking the coffee bags and little filtered coffee cup so much that I wouldn't go back to instant again

I noticed the coffee you have is labelled as mild medium and dark, here we have from 1 to 10. I really like the 6, Taylor's coffee bags

Good tea also tends to go stale pretty fast, which is why a lot of the better ones seem to use a LOT of redundant packaging (for example one of mine uses a tin that has a vacuum seal around the lid, a pull tab top under that and under THAT in the nitrogen filled tin, is the actual tea, in individual single serve vacuum sealed packets.

Instant coffee is ok if someone offers it to me while I visit, but I’m brewing fresh, from fresh grind. Haven’t tried the filtered coffee cups.

when i was into coffee i would grind it into super fine powder and pack it in glass jars (about 1pt max capacity each) with a good lid and put those in the freezer. they would keep for years.

I was very pleasantly surprised how good both the filter cups were I buy the combustible, I'm too wary of the plastic but the coffee bags are really yummy too.
