    keurig coffee maker

    I Like a cup of coffee in the morning or with supper. Just one is enough. My drip sucks for small amounts of coffee. The french press is a mess to clean up.

    I have been looking at the keurig coffee makers...with the K-cups you insert for different types of coffee or tea.
    Aunt has one and loves it. Anyone else tried these or have one?

    I only had one cup at a customer's house. Thought it tasted kinda fake. But I drank it.

    Ive got one. I really like it!
    Its fast, the coffee is almost as good as coffee shop coffee. I find myself indulging in a cup in the evening now just because its so easy.
    A few K-Cups I like are: Paul Newmans Blend (bold), Donut Shop, Green Mountain Blends. Go For it, I think you will like.
    Its nice having a few different choices to suit your fancy.

    I have a Tassimo, I would not buy this machine as you can only use their T Discs. They have "my" K cups for the Kureg. Also Bunn has a single cup unit that uses pods, and I believe you can get a refillable pod. My Ten cup Bunn is made in USA, and their customer service is excellent. I got a reconditioned unit and paid under thirty for it.

    I have to have a full pot of steaming coffee to get me going. I've tried other enemas, but only the coffee really does the trick.

    I'm the same way, but really like a good cup in the afternoon........

    I have a Property maintenance boss that has one.......It's great, I like a plain old blend with a little milk....

    Sorta expensive, but whats not?

    We'll have to do coffee together someday. I have hose splitter for up to four insertion tubes from one bag so no one has to wait.

    Got one for Christmas. The whole family is using it and trying all different flavors of coffee. Got the one that makes 3 different sizes of cups. Coffee comes out at 192* nice and hot. Best coffee maker ever.

    Yea I enjoy mine. The biggest cup it makes is 12 oz. THat may be a little bit of a pain depending on the user. I just make a 10oz and a 6oz with the same k cup. I like the taste of the coffee.

    The guys in my area can most likely appreciate my next comment. WAWA coffee is not the same with them damn dispensers. Thats what started this whole thing...

    We bought one for the shop and one for home. No one would ever wash the pot here at work. So now that problem is solved.

    At home my wife doesn't drink coffee. There was always a waste unless I drank the whole pot. Not a good idea. Now there is no waste.

    When we went to Ireland a few years ago all the gas stations and convenience stores had these K cups. That was the only way you could buy a cup of coffee.

    Like mine although I still brew a full pot if I'm Jones-n for the caf fix. If you use the hot chocolate K cups, always run a small cup of just water to rinse the piercing needle otherwise it will plug up and drive you buggy trying to figure it out.

    Neve though about that. Good point tho. I'm no a fan of the hot chocolate from the keurig. I use the correct cup size so I know it's not that lol ( I knew someone would mention that)

    Got one as a x-mas gift a year ago... all I ever buy these days is the Newman's own bold and Donut shop k-cups. It's very convenient, but more expensive than regular coffee at 50 cents a cup. Good if only a few people drink coffee, so you don't need to make a full pot.
    Also, you have to de-scale it every 3-4 months - depending on how purified the water you use is. Otherwise it'll really piss you off when you're trying to get out the door in the morning and the damn thing won't spit out a cup!

    Like the Newman's bold and Emeril's as well. Actually can get two small cups out of one K cup when using either of those two.

    I had been going thru a couple regular coffee pots a year due to hard water when I wanteded to go K-Cup. We began to use bottle water and it works great now. It probably costs a tad more, but hey........
