BEHIND THE COFFEE
A NOTE FROM DAVE
I’m thrilled to introduce Danger Coffee Compostable Pods—the world’s first plastic-free, mineral rich coffee pods. These pods deliver everything you love about Danger Coffee: clean, mold-free, remineralized, specialty grade coffee. And now, it’s available in a fully compostable single serve design that’s better for both you and the planet.
For years, single serve coffee sacrificed quality for convenience, which left you with watery, bitter brews. I set out to change that. Danger Pods harness cutting edge brewing and grind technology to create a pod that delivers bold, balanced flavor and clean energy. These pods don’t just taste good—they make you feel good, too.
Now you can start even rushed days the right way. Upgrade your mornings with Danger Coffee Compostable Pods.Dave AspreyFounder, Danger Coffee

They’re then aged in tanks for five days before solar drying for up to 45 days—intensifying their complexity. Third party lab testing guarantees each batch is mold-free and ultra-clean for a pure, powerful cup.
