Keurig Single Cup Brewing System
#101
Love it! Easy to use and no wasted coffee. Easy to clean. Tastes great (took a few trys with different brands to find the one I like). You can make tea and hot chocolate.
So far the pot is holding up great! (one year)
And although the pods are expensive, it is actually saving me money. Fewer trips to Starbucks and no wasted coffee.

My 2 dds have the machine and have to admit the coffee is good but I end up adding more grounds to the cup in the machine and run water thru again ... that landfill thing really grates me.
sorry for the soapbox ...

Im rather lucky, an hour away is a spring that was left for the use of the public in perpituity by the last person who owned the land. He felt the water was so healthy everyone should be able to take it. You can go with containers and just take home as much as you want. sharet

" I keep a kettle on the stove, a single serve anything amounts to boiling water. I use a teaball to brew tea, the press to brew coffee. the grounds for tea and coffee go to compost."
Me too and I always make my tea in a tea pot, hate when someone gives me a cup with a tea bag and some and some hot water. We do use a coffee maker as DH is a big coffee drinker and now have been gifted a Keunig. I'm going to look for a filter so we can use our own coffee - decaf Folgers or Maxwell House, and maybe as a once in awhile treat few flavored coffee cups for me.

Speaking of tea,, I should make some in my keurig and then put it in one of my fancy tea pots and then I can say I used my tea pots. I now have about 30 of them. LOL! I don't like a tea bag in a cup either. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

My daughter has one and she loves it. I have used it when I'm there and I think it's great. She buys her coffee on-line and it's cheaper and when you buy a certain amount it's free shipping. Check it out-------www.coffeecow.com

My daughter gave us one for Christmas several years ago and we just recently upgraded. Since she works for the company and gets 72 free pounds of coffee a year, she gets us all the coffee we want. My husband loves the ice tea pods. Fill a plastic tumbler up with ice and put it under there with an ice tea pod (many assorted flavors) and instant ice tea. I drink the hot tea in the winter and we have the hot chocolate for the kids when they visit. Yes the pods can be expensive but use the coupons at the kitchen shops and you can save alot.

Have had one for about 4 years now and wouldn't be without it. I hate warmed over, or coffee that has been brewed hours before. Make one cup, fresh and there are tons of different coffees available. Also K cups come in teas, hot chocolate, and even tea for flavored ice tea.
