Q: What is the best K-Cup coffee?
I wish there was some starbucks option, but what is the best one you've tried? Do you still love using k-cups? or has it become a pain?
A: I really like the french roast coffee and the mandarin orange tea. They are so great to use in the morning!!!
Q: What is the BEST tasting coffee- for my K-Cup order?
I am about to order a bunch of k-cups for my new AMAZING Keurig Coffee maker (If you don't have one, you MUST get one immediately!)
Any suggestions on what I type of COFFEE I should order? I liked Coffee People Jet-Fuel but I want to try something new-
Light or Dark, I have no preference, just tell me the ones you think are good...
A: Cafe La Semeuse is the best by far.
In blind tastings this coffee beat both Jamaican Blue Mountain and Kona AA ( 2 of the best coffees on earth).
the good thing about it is, it's less then 1/3rd the price.

Q: Does coffee made in Keurig K-Cup machine, not enough kick than regular brew?
I recently purchased a Keurig K-cup machine with Green Mountain coffee. I think it is the best and my wife was in full agreement... at first... now she is saying it has NO affect on waking her up in the morning, but if she drinks the nasty folgers at work, she claims she is alive and kicking after just drinking a half a cup. I think it is in her mind, any one else have a similar experience?
A: The caffeine content from your Keurig machine should be just as much as the stuff she's drinking at work. The strength or boldness of the coffee is probably different, but not the caffeine content. If you haven't tried them already, make sure you are buying the Extra Bold "EB" K-Cups. They contain more ground coffee and will result in a stronger cup with more caffeine.
Q: One-cup coffee machines at the office? what's the best?
I have a Keurig machine at home and absolutley love it (they use k-cups). We are looking to get a one-cup maker that uses either k-cups or the coffee pods, I just called Kaurig customer service and they were terrible and not helpful at all. are there any other services that rent you the coffee machine and you buy coffee for it every month? I know there are the coffee pods, but what machines do you use it with?
A: we use the flavia system, our vendor is aramark. the service is reliable and the coffee is delicous. they even offer teas and hot chocolates all made with the same easy to use machine. the machines also take creamer "pods."
Q: Starbucks coffee in K cups? Will this ever be?
I have a Keurig coffee brewer and LOVE it. Wonder if Starbucks coffee will ever be made in the K Cup format that this type of coffee machine uses. Are they competitors or not?
A: In time they will all be under one ownership give it time
Q: Where can you buy K cups coffee refills?
thnks
I mean a store you can drive to???
A: Bed, Bath and Beyond has a good variety of these at $9.99/18 ct. Sign up on their website and you will get 20% off coupons that you an print off and copy. Makes the k-cups a pretty good price. Kohls also carries them and at times they have good sales on them

Q: Can I use loose tea leaves with my Breville/Keurig 'My K-cup' brewer?
I have the 'My K-cup' for a Breville Keurig coffee/tea/hot chocolate brewer that I recently purchased, and I was wondering if I can use loose tea leaves in it instead of loose coffee. It doesn't say anything in the instruction manual about it. Have any of you successfully done this?
A: Am not too sure about the Breville, but I thought Keurig usually can only use thier patented K-cups. Your model might comes with pod to brew coffee grounds, if this is the case then you should be able to use tea leaves...
Q: Best website for Keurig Coffee K-Cups?
What is the best website (for reliable shipping and reasonable prices) for Keurig Coffee cups? There are so many of them and I'm getting sick of searching! What is a website you had the best experience with? Thank you!
A: Here are the best companies that sell K-Cups that I know:

Q: Keurig Single Cup Coffee Maker, who owns one?
MY wife is a coffee connoisseur, if you will, and I'd like to get her one for her upcoming B-day. I'm looking at the B60 "Special Edition" or the B70 "Platinum". Anybody have one that really likes it, or hates it? Would you buy a different model? Thanks.
And where's the most economical place to buy the K-cups?
A: I never heard of this item until this past weekend. My niece owns one. She was showing it off in the kitchen then brewed me a cup of Swiss Chocolate Almond in about 45 seconds. It was great coffee! She said she would recommend it to anyone! Hope this helps.
Q: Recommendations on single serve coffee makers? Pods, K-cups, etc?
Our company is switching from Starbucks to a local brewer whose coffee is so weak I cannot even taste it. I want to get a single serve machine to keep in my office. I don't drink coffee every day, but when I do I want it to be tasty.
My last company has Keurig machines, and I never found a coffee that I liked. Any recommendations on other systems? Thanks.
A: Doesn't Folgers make some single serve coffee packet things?
<--- Ready to die
Q: keurig coffee maker--need k-cups?
K, so I bought this keurig single-serve coffee maker, but it needs special coffee things called "k-cups" and I ordered some online, but can I get them in grocery stores, or buy them anywhere in a store?
A: You can get them at Costco or BJ's if you have any in your area. Some supermarkets sell them as well.
I have one of those machines and LOVE it.
Hope that helps :)
Q: El. Ed. Teachers: Ideas for reusing/recycling the little plastic K-cups from the Keurig coffee maker?
The K-cups don't have a number on them, so I don't know if they can be recycled. But we thought that maybe a local school could use them for kids' arts and crafts projects. Any ideas of what the kids could do with them???
In case you haven't seen K-cups... they are little lightweight plastic cups with foil on top and coffee or coco or tea inside. The Keurig machine pokes a hole in the top and bottom and brews your beverage. Then, the cups are disposable, but what a waste!
The good news is that we analyzed the Keurig machine vs. many offices having individual coffee pots or going to a coffee shop for a beverage in a disposable cup, and we determined that we are better off environmentally with the Keurig machine. That said, there is still waste with the K-cups. So... we need your ideas!!!
Thanks!
A: The art class could build a huge statue, get on tv, and beg for funds for the arts in their school.
