My S-I-L has a Keurig. She got it about a year ago. Both her and her husband love it for a quick cup in the morning before work.

Got one of the office. I really like it. Tully's evergreen blend is a good k-cup.

Saw this thread and had to jump in... this machine is the greatest device ever devised by the mind of man!:banger I have one at home and one at the office. It's a real blessing to have a cup first thing in the morning, right away. I still grind and use a french press occasionally, but it's mostly a weekend thing. The drip machine has gone away though. Green Mountain Sumatra Reserve and Van Houtte Kenya are regulars for me.

Cheers,
G

Replacement number 2 on the way. :sh

Bummer that they keep crapping out but they do stand behind their products which is refreshing.

That's good to hear. I"m thinking of heading out to pick one up tonight. I want to cut down on my pop intake and do enjoy a cup of coffee every now and then. The Keurig's seem like the perfect thing for me.

They are good with the customer service, which is nice.

All the issues I've had have been with my Platinum brewer.

My single cup B30 has been great, no issues there.

Re: Who has a Keurig coffee pot?
 
I bought the B40 last night, along with a couple 12 packs to get started on seeing what blends I like. Of course i had to break it in last night, so I was wired come 11:30pm when I should've been in bed.

Been having an issue for a couple weeks with my B40. Finally called today and got a tremendous run around. Had to talk to 2 different people. Was told do this, do that, do this again. Then try this and try that. Finally told them screw it how about I just throw the dam thing out.

Might call one more time, might just go back to my french press and be done with it. :mad:

Ask to be elevated to the next level of support. Tell them that you have tried descaling and all the other trouble shooting procedures. After that tell them that you are almost out of K-cups and if they won't send you a replacement you are going to just go with a different manufacturer.

I used a Senseo Pod coffee maker for quite a while, but it became hard to find pods besides the ones from Senseo locally (which made weak brew).

I finally broke down and bought a Keurig B-60. That I use quite a bit. :tu


:dance:

I just got the B40 on Monday. I also got the my K cup. So far the my k cup has been making some great coffee. I wonder if there is enough of us to do a k-cup pass??

Amazon has 50-count packs from Coffee People for $22. These come with minimal packaging. They are loose inside the cardboard box. The blends offered in this format are Kona, Donut Shop, Jet Fuel, Organic, Black Tiger and Wake Up Call. I have personally tried the Kona, Donut Shop and Jet Fuel. The Kona and Donut Shop make a decent cup of coffee. Which is what you normally get from these machines. Can't ask for much more than just a decent cup of coffee from them. The Jet Fuel is the least palatable of the three I have tried.

Good price on those!

I have had all of them and there is not a Coffee People blend I haven't liked. The Jet Fuel, Black Tiger and Kona are staples for me.

Re: Who has a Keurig coffee pot?
 
My staple is the Tully's Kona blend. Also the Green Mountain Sumatran Reserve and Dark Magic are really good too. I got the 24 count boxes from Kuerig when I registered my B40. It was the buy 2, get 2 free so with shipping was less than $30.

I'd be up for a k-cup pass if someone wants to put it together.

We did that one time...I'd be in for another go around.

I'd be up for some Coffee passing. I love my Keurig. Our usual is the Caribou Coffee Morning Blend, my wife loves it, and I get a box of 90 cupsfor 35 bucks at Costco.

Having mine now for nearly 2 years, I can start to notice that it's brewing a little longer. I was just thinking I may need to descale mine.

I had one of the Keurigs that have a reservior and had troubles with the pump as I've seen others have. I got it warrantied then sold it on fleabay and proceeded to buy one of the mine Keurigs. I use it at the office and it works great. I think my favorite k-cup is Caribou Coffee Daybreak ;)

Let me look at getting together a nice selection of cigars, and I might start one up. Should be fun!

I picked up one of these as an X-mas gift for my mother. I've been thinking about getting one for myself, too. I've heard lots of good things!!
