Review of EZ-Cup By Perfect Pod for Keurig Coffee Machines

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)i had received a keurig coffee maker for christmas. i was tickled because i really love drinking coffee one fresh cup at a time. and being the only coffee drinker in the house, making a whole pot was just wasteful. up until now, i'd been using a french press and tea kettle, which made a great cup of coffee, but took forever. long story short, i really like this machine.

of course though, it's great flaw is the ridiculous amount of WASTE. as great a cup of coffee those little k-cups make, i just can't bring myself to throwing out one of those little bits of landfill fodder every time i want a cup of joe. i had received that official reusable mesh filter device with the coffee maker, to use my own coffee, but that device isn't worth the cardboard it came in. its design is terribly flawed and not once could i get a decent cup from it. we even tried some diy hacks, trying to make something or retrofit something that would give a comparable brew to the k-cups. no go. frustrated, i searched for something that would work.

this is it. i was apprehensive about buying it, not wanting to shell out more money on a device that just wouldn't work, but luckily it gave me a great cup right out of the gate. while i wish i could have found something that created zero waste (besides the coffee grounds) for this machine, i can live with composting these paper filters with the grounds. it's a little more complicated (a few more steps) than just sticking a cup in the holster, but this is the design that works and it's not hard to use. i get to drink the coffee i love using this fast and easy machine, one cup at a time without throwing out those awful plastic cups.

what's great is that it works just fine with "drip brew" coffee grounds, which is what you usually find in the pre-ground packs at the grocery store. freshly ground coffee is always better, but i don't have a grinder of my own yet, and i hate using the machines at the store (they have no finesse and pulverize the beans regardless of ground setting.)

Review of Perfect Pod EZ-Cup Filter Papers

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a godsend! I adore my Keurig but was looking to use my own coffee grounds since I can't find a K-cup that matches Dunkin Donut's coffee. I was extremely disappointed in Keurig's reusable K-cup. Sure it's easy but removing the coffee grounds was a huge aggravation, not to mention messy. These filters along with the EZ-cup eliminates the mess of removing used grounds. This is a must have if you enjoy using your own grounds with your Keurig.
***UPDATE:I'm still loving the E-Z cup and filters. However, I just got a bad batch of filters. Every filter in the pack would bust and leak grounds all in the cup. I would then have to disassemble the Keurig to rinse away all the stray grounds. I eventually doubled the filters for the remainder of the pack. I am about to order several more packs. Hopefully, this won't be something I run across frequently.

Review of Keurig My K-Cup 2-Pack Reusable Coffee Filter Basket Replacement

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Something that is important to be aware of is that you can't use just any ground coffee in this filter.I have a Kuerig Elite and bought a standard bag of Dunkin Donuts ground coffee and when I first tried to use it, the water going into the cup overflowed and came out of the overflow which essentially watered down the coffee considerably and had water pouring everywhere.I tried it again, this time with a little less coffee in the filter and had the same result.I contacted Kuerig customer support and they replied and told me to make sure I didn't pack the coffee, the filter was clean, and that the grind wasn't too fine because a fine grind would clog the filter.I cleaned the filter very carefully and even stirred the coffee grounds with the end of the spoon to ensure that it wasn't packed.The results were the same.I haven't tried using a different brand but I will.As for now though, the idea is great but I'm not convinced that there isn't a possible design flaw with this.Once I try a different ground coffee I will update further.

Review of Keurig My K-Cup Reusable Coffee Filter

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Being frugal (all right, cheap) by nature, I held off on buying a single-serve coffeemaker until I could find one I liked that offered a reusable filter. When Keurig came out with the B-40 Elite, a handsome, reasonably priced unit, and announced that it would be releasing its "My K-Cup" reusable filter for separate sale early in 2006, I was primed. As soon as I saw this product on Keurig's website, I was ready to buy my new coffeemaker from Amazon.com and the filter from Keurig's web site. My only wish was that Amazon.com would stock the reusable filter so buyers could purchase the coffeemaker and filter in one fell swoop, and here my wish is about to come to pass!

I have had my Keurig B-40 Elite for about a month now, and I've had great success with it. Bear in mind that if you're using the reusable filter, you must first remove the black plastic K-Cup holder from the unit's filter assembly (instructions on how to do this are included with "My K-Cup"; the black piece in the coffeemaker's filter basket doesn't act like it's supposed to come out, but it is, and it does).

Also, I've read elsewhere that some people don't like having to remove the reusable filter and clean it out after every use. However, I've found it to be a relatively simple affair: the reusable filter doesn't drip when you remove it, and takes about 30 seconds to rinse out after each use. You can use it again right away to brew successive cups.

One caveat is that the output splashes a bit when using the My K-Cup filter, so I always have a damp paper towel at the ready when I brew a cup. That having been said, I'm really happy to be using my own coffee and saving lots of money in the process. Those who are, like me, loathe to shell out 55 cents a cup for K-Cups will probably really like the new My K-Cup.

Review of Toastess TFC-326 Personal-Size 1-Cup Coffeemaker, Black

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love coffee. And, I'm kind of an elitist when it comes to coffee. I can only use really good beans-- right now I'm using Lavazza, but my every day coffee is starbucks brand.The problem is, I cannot produce a good POT of coffee for the life of me. I don't know why. I use filtered water. I clean out the carafe. My regular every day machine has a water filter. I don't know why my pots of coffee are horrid compared to my husband's pots of coffee, which taste as if they came from the local coffeehouse/espresso bar.

So, after getting a free senseo (YUCK!), and giving it to a friend, I bought this little coffee maker.IT makes a really good cup of coffee I have not messed up even one time.And, I use it 5-10 times per day.It is just excellent.I've been looking at the higher priced one cup makers, such as the Tassimo, but I'm not sure I need it. With freshly ground good beans, this little coffee maker does the job.

This coffee maker, by the way, makes a hot cup of coffee-- definitely as hot as every full-size coffeemaker I've ever had. I'm wondering if the other reviewer just got a machine that didn't work too well.Or, maybe he just likes it from boiled water.Whatever the case, if you're used to drinking coffee made from regular drip machines, this one is fine.

I've had this coffeemaker for at least two months now, and I literally use it 5 to 10 times per day.I keep expecting it to break, because it's definitely not made expensively, but it keeps going.I think it's a great choice for someone like me or someone in an office.

This comes with a durable reusable gold-colored metal filter.
