My wonderful kid brother and very good and dear friend too got me a Keurig brewer for Christmas this past year (08). Man have I been enjoying it.

I have tried 6 different coffee's and 3 teas so far and like them all. Great for hot chocolate too and rather quick compared to some other brewers or waiting for water to heat on the stove.

I can get the packets at Sears, Target, Macy's or even order them online. QVC has some good prices on the 108 count boxes.

Anyone else here have one? I have the big one shown in the picture there on the page but I have seen a few smaller versions too.

Drinking some Paul Newman blend coffee at this moment. ;)

Hey Skip, I've been looking at these since before the holidays but have not pulled the trigger yet.....do you have to use their pre-packaged coffees and teas are can you use your own....I have a credit at Macy's for like $300 from their charity thing when you uise a Macy's card from the holidays....may just use it for one of these.

There is a adaper unit not sure what it is called maybe on the site there where you can use your own coffee. Also I have used regular tea bags putting them in the cup and letting the hot water just drip over. Seems to seep faster too that way. The adapter came with mine but have not used it yet.

My wife has one at work provided by her employer with pods.  Believe it or not she complains the coffee is too weak for her.  I said how much water you using?  Naturally she says what I am supposed to.  I just gave up at the point.

I think the regular size brewers only have one setting. Mine has 3 and I go with the small cup twice in my mug. :cool:

I really like those Keurig brewers.  We had a huge one at my last office job and they supplied the coffees and I supplied the drinkin'!  :)  It did have 2 or three different buttons you could push to get different strength coffee and it was nice because they had the water line ran right to the back so we never had to refill it. The empty cups were ejected into a trash recepticle right underneath.  It was awesome!  I would like to get one but I won a Senseio about two years ago and since it's not broke...

I wanted to get my wife one of those for Christmas but I didnt realize you could put other coffee in it.  She likes to try  different flavors and at a whole pot at a time.  She them makes iced coffee out of it.  I ended up getting her a pretty cool mr coffee.  I just have to be sure she doesnt drink caffienated 'cause she is so high strung as it is.  She really bounces off the walls if she's hyped up on caffein.subtlelaugh.gif

We have one also. At first I thought it was silly then we used it at our New Years party and it seemed everyone wanted a different flavor of coffee so it turned out fine. The adaptor is called the K cup and I use it all the time as I have a custom blend I prefer.

I tried out the "K cup" last week and yea it works great for both coffee and tea. Very easy to clean. I am drinking some Kona blend right now from one of the specialty packs my brother gave me. :)

We have the Tassimo and love it.  Very similar product.   We've signed up for auto shipments and get our coffee and latte discs delivered every month.  I was unsure about the single-serving coffee thing at first but I have to say that I dig it now!

My brother told me he looked at one of those too. Amazing how far making a cup of coffee or tea has come. :cool:
