Mine totally shut off after brewing 1 cup. quick flick of the on/off switch fixed it but you had to wait fir it to then heat the water.

just got off the phone with customer service. they are sendingout a replacement, no charge. they dont want the old machine back, just want me to send the little black holder part back to the manufacter to effectively disable the machine. i have a myK attachment, so i dont need it anyway. looks like the old one will go out into my garage"mancave smoking room"

they refered to the problems as "short brew" and "delayed brew"

great customer service, i will say that.

Darn machine is not even 4 months old.

Glad to know we are not the only ones experiencing a problem with it.

Well, I guess the one good thing is it seems this problem has happened enought that Keurig is prepared to replace the machines and stand by their product. However, I can totally see why you would be mad with your machine only being 4 months old.

I saw this on slicke deals.net. I don't have one, but figured I'd pass on the offer.

Question for you fellow Keurig owners. What vinegar/water solution do you normally use to clean your machine?

Here is what I have used, all is well. I use Brita water and then a packet of these every 4-6 months.

The Ice Tea cups are great if you brew them right. I don't use the Ice Bev Button. Instead I fill a 20oz cup with with ice and brew on the second largest size. I also add 1 Splenda and fresh lemon juice. Makes for a great cup of Ice Tea.

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! 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

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.

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.
