The following Passover alert is from the OU for Passover, 2005.

There has been a change in the OU policy regarding Instant Coffee. Because of the presence of maltodextrins, only coffee bearing an OU-P symbol or brands below should be used. Both Folger’s and Taster’s Choice instant coffee remain acceptable. Other brands should be checked in the Directory. Ground coffee remains acceptable from any source as long as it is unflavored and not decaffeinated. The following brands do not need an OU-P to be usable for Passover:
CLOVER VALLEY, Regular Coffee
FOLGERS, Regular Coffee
GLENCOURT, Regular Coffee
Safeway Canada
KEY FOOD, Regular Coffee
MCDANIELS, Regular Coffee
Save-A-Lot
TASTER’S CHOICE

Ed. note: The OK certifies decaf coffee for Passover (OK-P) some brands inclue Maxwell House and Sanka. See the OK website that I link to at http://www.kashrut.com/Passover/ for the entire list.
