Then put in the My K-Cup, close the top of the unit and it will push it back up into the proper place.

Thanks! I will try that this weekend.

I tried it this weekend and it works fine now. Now if I use a regular K-cup with the O-ring being pulled down a bit, will it puncture the foil at all or should I push it up when I use one of those?

Thanks for your help

By using it with the 'My K-cup' it basically just aligned the o-ring to the proper height. It will now work fine for regular k-cups and may actually improve the extraction of them. You won't need to re-adjust anything.

Has any company made a delicious and pocket friendly hot chocolate for them yet?

I believe so. Check their website. I think I recall seeing it @ Christmas time

Finally ordered two of the Solofill reuseable k-cups. Decided to give them a try this past weekend and brew up some coffee for iced coffee. Bought a bag of Starbuck's Italian Roast and followed the instructions for filling the cup. Couldn't have been easier to use. And WOW! What great tasting coffee. Seems to have way more body than what you get out of a regular k-cup. Cleanup is a breeze too.

I too use the Kuerig with the reusable screen.
I find the more course the coffee is ground the better it works.
The really fine coffee seems to get pushed out of the way by the water flow allowing the water to almost pass by the grinds.
I do love my Keurig!

Has anyone seen the Tulley's Kona K-Cups online anywhere. I have not been able to find them recently.

Thanks for the heads up, but those prices are insane!!!

I will not pay more than .50/.55 ea for K-Cups and that's not too hard to do. The Keurig Site almost always has them in that price range, with free shipping if you spend over $50

Well... you didn't say you wanted them at a certain price...

However, with commodities going up everyday in price, it is going to be harder and harder to find at a "decent" price.

WOW! That's interesting news and sad news at that!

I'm not a huge coffee drinker and haven't bought any k-cups in a while, but have coffee prices risen that much lately? Seems the average per price k-cup is $.60 and going up. Looking at the links that Wayne posted, the one on Amazon is nearly $1.00/cup. the Walmart deal isn't much better at $.66/cup.

I loved my Keurig at first, but I live in an area with hard water, so the maintenance required to keep it from getting clogged is annoying. It got to the point where hitting the large mug button resulted in about 1/3 cup of coffee coming out. It got better after some scouring, but it's already starting to get bad again. I've owned it less than a year.

I went to Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins yesterday to treat my son to some ice cream. And low and behold they are selling their own K Cups. Not like I can drink the stuff being preggers. However, I bought a box of their Dunkin Dark Roast. Pretty pricey though. 14 K Cups for $11.00. Hubby better enjoy those!

They have 5 different ones. French Vanilla, Hazelnut, Original, Dark Roast, and a plain Decaf.
