Glad to hear that I'm not the only one! I'm so klutzy, it just flies everywhere.
Yes probably. But you can get a refillable cup that you can put your own coffee in.
Oh, more than likely. But it would be nice for when you wanted to sample a new blend or flavour.
You never know. But for now I'll be set with my Cafe Mocha, as Amazon had it on sale, so I ordered the deal that comes with 8 containers! Hope I don't get tired of it.Awww, hang around us long enough, we'll fix that.
Agreed. I only buy whole bean coffee and grind it myself. Much better.Or maybe a coffee grinder so you can grind a day or two of beans at a time. That way they stay much fresher and you can really taste the difference instead of buying ground coffee. The grinders are relatively inexpensive and range from $19.00 on up. I bought mine ages ago and it still works great.
I like that idea!
Good point. I didn't know they are hard to clean. I have some Espresso, maybe I'll try that next.
I guess times have changed and now they can be cleaned. I run white vinegar thru my Mr Coffee once a month to de-scale. When they start to sputter and take longer to make a pot, this means they need de-scaling with white vinegar.
I got rid of mine too because I didn't like it. I thought the coffee that came out of it was barely better than instant. The waste produced by the cups is absurd too. Especially if you drink a lot of coffee like I do. I did have the reusable one but IMO the coffee wasn't any better than the prefilled cups.
Although I don't have PKD I am 100% addicted to caffeine and coffee is my guilty pleasure.
I agree!
I never had a Keurig but we had one at work in the teacher's lounge and I only used it if I was desperate.
That's the brand of Espresso I bought! Let me know when you are going to try it, maybe I'll open it on the same day.
I guess I will have to think of all those things if I ever move to town. They probably don't have the best water. We have a well now and it gets filtered before it even comes out of the tap.
You don't use the reusable cup? I think mine came with one but I can't remember. I may have bought it online. I have a Bunn coffee maker. I love that thing. It's unique because it has a water tank that always has hot water ready to go. You can shut the tank off if you're going away and can turn it back on when you return. It takes about 15 minutes to heat up if you do. When you are making coffee, you pour the water in as usual. It pulls the same amount of hot water out of the tank and what it uses to make the coffee. The water you added replaces what was used and is heated. It is faster than a standard drip coffee maker because of this. This is the one I have. Love it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000FFRZ26/?tag=thecatsite
Ok. I am going to make some in a few. I'm about to go to break. You convinced me.That's the brand of Espresso I bought! Let me know when you are going to try it, maybe I'll open it on the same day.

Morning: Gevalia french roast with 3TB Folgers vanilla cappuccino
Afternoon: Gevalia french roast drank black
7pm will be: Gevalia french roast with 2TB Folgers vanilla cappuccino, while cuddling with my Demi-kins.
I am intrigued! And they appear to have a few flavors in decaf, but it doesn't look like they're fair trade or rainforest alliance certified? That's something I look for when buying bagged coffee, which is why I normally get the O Organics brand, because they are and also not too expensive.

Yes, we have the reusable cups for the Keurig. For me, it's a pain, simply because I'm a real klutz and more coffee would be on the floor than in the cup! I just like to turn it on, pop a cup in it and it's ready. I run vinegar through it once a month and it seems OK. But yet....boy, that Ninja looks nice and it's gotten great reviews. We had a Bunn system when I worked in the paper plant. Boy, that thing made good coffee.
I agree about the reusable cups. I used it because I didn't want to use the disposable ones but it is a pain.There's another one, too. Grounds and Hounds. I haven't tried them yet. Grounds & Hounds Coffee Co. Store
