Sledge: The drink was on the weak side and the "grounds" still had a lot of flavor in them after use. I used them as an oatmeal alternative and a stir-in. Still looking for cocoa that works for me.

Diane M.: It doesn’t taste like hot chocolate but more like a coffee. I tried making according to the directions a few times but found that using a saucepan, the water/cacao has to be at just starting to boil, turn off the heat, let it steep a few minutes and the flavor is richer.

Anthony: First of all, Kudo's to Ash for pointing out a bialetti can be used as I don't have a french press and did not want to start buying more equipment I may not use beyond a week. I use my stove top bialetti and my aeropress which was recommended by the manufacturer as well in their A and Q. This helped me make the decision to try this.

Well, after being a coffee addict for many years I think I really am making the switch at this point. Two days in and no heartburn or palpitations and I slept well last night. The trick is you need to take a caffeine pill (at least I did) while you're transitioning so you don't get nasty withdrawal symptoms. If I go 4 hours after waking without caffeine I get eh nastiest migraine so I new I could not risk that so I bought some vivarin. 200 mgs of caffeine. I know, that means I'm still not off caffeine, BUT that's like 40% of the caffeine I was ingesting when I had my 2 mugs of strong Joe. My goal is to ease of the caffeine and cut the vivarin in half in a couple days. Can't go cold turkey, and hey, if I have to take one caffeine pill a day so be it. Still way less then what I was consuming.

I really like the taste with...

Kate: I've been off caffeine and coffee for about two months now. I wanted to try cacao as a possible alternative, but I was skeptical of the price & what I'd do with it if I didn't like the taste. But I miss my warm drink in the morning, dangit! As soon as the product arrived in the mail I immediately brewed a cup following the french press directions on the bag: 2 tablespoons, 8oz of boiling water, stir and let it sit for 8mins, stir again then press. I added frothed vanilla almond milk to my mug, poured the Crio Bru on top and took a sip. I was surprised! It tastes just like a rich cup of hot-coco :) without the overpowering sweetness.
I don't plan on drinking this straight, so I can't speak on that, but I'm now sooooo excited to have a lil cup of this in the morning. Feels like a holiday treat!

Pamela KK: I was always a big coffee drinker.

I wanted to try other items. I had originally purchased the intro set directly from the company; two 10 oz bags and a French press. I tried it immediately upon receiving it.
The first couple of times I tried it, I thought it was just too watery and too boring and really nothing. It was missing fat and sugar for sure I thought. I went ahead and put everything up in the cupboard and ignored it for a few months.

About a month ago, my doctor mentioned something about my blood pressure elevating, and I decided to go off coffee entirely. It really wasn't doing anything for me except making me feel nervous.

So, I pulled the packages out, but I couldn't find the French press, so I decided to try making it with what I had on hand. (using a fine mesh sieve and a bowl)

😳 I shook some of the ground into the sieve, poured hot water over it, and let it kind of sit in its own liquid. I forgot about it for about 20 minutes, but then I came back in and there it was. So, I decided that I would go ahead and give it a try anyway. It's now no longer piping hot, but I'm sure it's pleasant.

Well, was I...

Amazon Customer: Have to get used to the unsweetened taste of cocoa but once you've made it to your liking it's healthy and delicious

Sean Roberts: But not great either. I guess I just had my expectations to high.
If you add the slightest to little cocao or slightly to much water flvour is not there.

Amazon Customer: Great substitute for coffee, with just enough caffeine.

Dawn OConnor: I love Crio bru. I have it daily instead of tea or coffee because I cannot have caffeine. Let this steep for 10-15 min in french press and it creates a rich chocolate flavour - like dark bitter chocolate. I like it plain or with steamed milk, and for a treat I spoon in some caramel sauce occasionally. I also steep it with vanilla pods sometimes for more depth of flavour. Its great made in an instantpot as well - then pour into jars to have ready for the week. Have it hot or cold. And reuse the grounds in recipes like brownies or energy balls. Overall, its more expensive than coffee or tea but I love it and have started buying the largest back which will last me about 3 - 4 weeks of daily drinks.
