Just under $10 for kilo coffee beans. Sure it is not fancy fresh roast but it is quite okay taste imo.
Best before date about a year from now.
Enjoy the cheap caffeine rush :)

Its at Epping. Doesn’t look like a clearance item?
.97 cents suggests that it is.
items ending with .97 is usually selected stores only, if not local
Yeah, I've also run into the "manager's specials" at Ipswich. They write the price onto the sign but it's not in the system. You have to take a picture of the price so they know what to put into the register. I really only found that out recently. Wonder how many times I've paid the regular price…
Bought few weeks ago from Costco Marsden Park for the same price
Is it good????
It's alright for the price
i'M IN A RUSH TO get a cup of caffeee
I was in Costco Moorabbin last week and saw this for full price.
can confirm was full price on Saturday
It might just started only today as the new catalogue circle.
Anyone tried this and compare with the ALDI one?
Aldi is better from my experience.
Not very good.. can't recommend
Thank you!
What did you dislike about it?
It might have been a different one, but I found they are so old and stale by the time they go on clearance.
Tropical Punch: Impostor
Good price. Shits me that Aldi increased their medium roast beans from $12 to $15, but left the dark roast at the same price.
Coles still sells beans for $12/kg, but they start with Dark roast and go from there.The Aldi medium roast beans are 100% Arabica, however the dark ones are not (Arabica & Robusta mix), so it makes sense now to reflect in price. I tried the limited edition Brazil beans and found it very nice and fresh for $17.
Weirdly, I prefer the dark. I think the medium is just too fruity. Obviously just my opinion. The dark is such great value for money.
Because Arabica is more mild taste compare to Robusta which has more caffeine and stronger flavour. 100% Arabica does not mean coffee taste better.
According to Google: Arabica tends to have a smoother, sweeter taste, with flavour notes of chocolate and sugar. They often also have hints of fruits or berries. Robusta, on the other hand, has a stronger, harsher and more bitter taste, with grainy or rubbery overtones. All coffee shops use Arabica beans, so must be a reason.
@itstuan: The info of the beans you are posting here states:
Our promise to you is that every single bean is 100% Arabica, 100% organic and 100% fair trade. So may be this is the wrong beans for you?@huntabargain: I didn't buy this haha. Still got some beans at home. Just posted for someone who might be interested.
I’m on the Medium Dark atm.
Started on Coles medium roast - but switched to Lazzio at Aldi because you can get single blend (finding these harder to get at my local) for a few bucks more. And with Aldi you get the roast date stamp.. 2022mmdd so I don’t pick up anything more than 2-3 weeks from roast date.
I thought Australia not going to be republic?
Certainly not with that sense of humour
would it help to get rid off dog/cat digging my backyard?
Yes, if you drink enough coffee. You'll stay awake all day/night to stand guard your backyard from dog/cat digging.
With a use by date in 12 months means these are already a year old.
I love everything Costco except the coffee. Been caught too many times. Aldi beans for the win.
I haven't bean caught yet, giving these a try
About 40% left at 3pm today, I'm assuming mostly gone by tomorrow or the next day.
Which store is that? Clearance items aren't always at every store.
