Every by Amazon coffee we track, priced per cup, and which bag is actually the cheap one.
Coffee is sold by the bag and drunk by the cup, and the two almost never rank in the same order. A by Amazon bag that looks dear on the shelf can turn out to be the cheapest thing here once you divide it out, and the one that looks like a bargain often is not. So here is every by Amazon coffee we track, across whole bean, ground, pods and instant, on one honest unit.

What by Amazon coffee costs
The range runs from 2p to 39p a cup across 19 products. That is a 19.2× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is by Amazon expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Cappuccino Classic in the 200g, and the dearest is House Blend Gold Roast And Strength 3 Medium in the 250g.
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cappuccino Classic | instant | 200g | £0.02 | £10.20 |
| Colombian | pods | 100 pods | £0.19 | — |
| Hazelnut Flavoured | pods | 20 pods | £0.20 | — |
| House Blend | whole bean | 2kg | £0.22 | £12.00 |
| Decaff | whole bean | 1kg | £0.23 | £12.90 |
| House Blend | whole bean | 1kg | £0.23 | £12.90 |
| Espresso Crema | ground | 1kg | £0.23 | £12.94 |
| Intenso | whole bean | 1kg | £0.24 | £13.50 |
| Espresso Crema | whole bean | 1kg | £0.24 | £13.50 |
| Espresso Crema | ground | 500g | £0.25 | £13.92 |
| Espresso Crema | whole bean | 500g | £0.25 | £14.06 |
| House Blend | ground | 1.36kg | £0.26 | £14.70 |
Bags themselves run £2.04 to £23.99. Ignore that column. A bigger bag costs more and almost always costs less per cup, which is the only number that follows you home.
The one to buy
If you buy one thing from by Amazon, buy Cappuccino Classic. At 2p a cup it comes in around 81% under the median for instant coffee, and that is measured against every brand in our catalogue rather than against by Amazon's own list prices. Nothing else in the range gets close on that test.

What that costs over a year
How much coffee do you drink?
- by Amazon£0.22 per cup£158
- Typical whole bean£0.63 per cup, our median£460
At 2 cups a day, by Amazon costs £302 less a year than the typical whole bean coffee we track. That is the same coffee habit, bought better.
How to pay less for it
- Read the per-cup column, not the shelf price. They order differently more often than not.
- Buy the biggest bag you will finish in about six weeks. Pack size moves the per-kilo price further than anything else on this page.
- For pods, price a compatible capsule for your machine first. The brand premium on capsules is usually the largest one going.
- Check again before you reorder. Whoever was cheapest last month frequently is not.
