We've had a Keurig since X-Mas '08, was a gift for the wife. We LOVE it, the thing is cool! The only downside is I pay a heck of a lot more for coffee now, those K-Cups aren't cheap (about 10 bucks for a box of 24 K-cups).

I have that $15 accessory, but have yet to give it a try...

Tassimo is much better.

Starbucks Coffee for me. Lattes, Capachionos, and Teas for my fiancee. And I never have to do anything more than press a button.

I like green tea because my wrist is a bit limp. the only coffee I drink is from the cold drip system my wife uses.

I drink Earl Grey tea mostly, but I have been trying the different flavors at World Market whenever I get the chance.

If I drink tea, it's generally Irish Breakfast tea.... My wife likes English Breakfast tea....

jkwest · 03-23-2009, 10:27 PM

the only tea I like is Yerba Mate.

So you can put any type of ground coffee in the empty k-cup accessory and you're good to go? I might have to check that out.

Anybody have a favorite site other than amazon for ordering k-cups?

Yes. My wife uses coupons and gets them at BB&B, but apparently their selection has been reduced after the holidays.

AppleCrumbDlite · 03-24-2009, 02:42 AM

aaaaaaaaah, I've always wanted one of these. Just never had the 200 to drop on it.

I just placed an order with shoffee.com. Good selection and their prices seem pretty on par with Amazon, with the advantage being Amazon sells in 2-box packages for about $23, while shoffee ships by the box at $11, so if you're just trying out a box for the first time you're not obligated to get nearly 50 cups of it.

Their shipping (UPS ground) is free if you drop $60 or more. I placed the order today, and UPS says it'll get delivered tomorrow (I believe they ship from Jersey, I'm in CT.)

check out Amazon for the coffee/tea - they usually sell a larger pack (50 k-cups) for $20

My favorite is Coffee People Donut Shop - kinda tastes like Dunkin Donut's coffee

There is an Emeril's coffee too that is very strong as well.

There are other sites out there (and even a forum or 2 with a deals section) to get a good variety.

Just be warned - there is no really good way of cleaning out the water completely from it - if you store it for a while, the water will get funky and you will go through a LOT of vinegar to flush the thing out. The water still has a slight smell (but no taste) when using hot water only option after that little mistake
