    I can't wait to try the cinnamon pastry too!!! I order bulk boxes for our office and always try a 'new' flavor....and then I have fun trying them all when the shipment arrives....speaking of which..I should probably go start another order..:)
    I LOVE the wild blueberry!! I was SO hesitant at first...but its SO delish

    I just got a keurig for christmas, and I do like it. I am a tea drinker but I like an occasional cup of coffee. This is perfect for me, one cup at a time. I prefer the flavored coffee over regular strong type. Where can I get this type of coffee with out spending a lot of money. Right now I am drinking Donut shop from Costco. But I don't want to buy 80 per box, in case I do not like it.

    CURRENTLY I am sipping on a DELISH mug of CHOCOLATE VELVET coffee.....freshly brewed from my keurig here at work..:) And the best part is...the coffee is so delish, i'm drinking it 'NAKED'...no sweetener or cream needed...:D
    Ok...that ends my random random post

    How ironic. I'm sippinmg a cup of Lake Lodge that I had to battle the Keurig to brew. The thing gets used 1,000,000x a day. the thing is filthy so it's totally clogged.

    I believe the Keurig makes people forget that there is an actual art to brew coffee.

    I love it for tea - regular old tea :).....I can get 2 LARGE cups out of one teabag......saves all the hassle of the kettle. But my husband loves it for the Chai Latte :)

    I love my Keurig too! My favorite is the Cinamon Pastry coffee or Chai tea!

    both my faves!! I :heart: my Keurig!!


    I bought myself a Keurig after purchasing one for our office. I've had it about a week. I love the Cinnamon Pastry and Chai Latte flavors. Just bought some Hawaiian Hazelnut I have yet to try.

    Hawaiian hazelnut is awesome, but if you like really strong coffee, brew it on the small cup setting--its pretty light. I'm new to coffee drinking but I like it alot!

    Do you have to clean it? Like run a empty cup through? I just got mine and want to keep it in top performance. ETA Keurig, not the french press ;-)

    I have a Nespresso Essenza which is similar...I've been wondering if the Kuerig pods would work since I always walk by the boxes in Target and the flavors look so good!

    Have thought about getting one. Not sure if the investment is worth it. How does it "perform" when you have a large group of people drinking coffee? Say 8-12 for a Bible study?

    We've never had a problem with several people who are drinking coffee; heating time is minimal even when the tank is refilled. I love my Keurig.

    Get the smaller boxes to try. Lots of places sell them. The Hot Apple Cider is awesome!

    I don't mean to be a hater....but really...if you are having a bunch of people over, can you not just use a regular coffee machine? and really, making tea...is not hard. you place a teabag in a mug and boil water. voila- done.

    i think my main issue with these new things is the amount of waste that is generated from them....seems very backwards (shouldn't we be moving towards more sustainable ways of eating/living? not adding even more waste to the landfills?)

    Also Walmart and Targets tend to carry the 12-24ish size boxes. (Walmart has a great sugar free cider Mmmm!) Or get the My K-cup reusable coffee filter thingy and you can use whatever coffee you want.

    MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Chai Latte!!!!!! I just got my Keurig this past weekend. I LOVE it! It's supposed to come into work with me, but I don't think hubby will let it out of the house. The Caramel Cappuchino is amazing too!!!!

    My husband is addicted to the caramel cappuccino!!!

    I have a few friends with them so we all buy a differant kind then split up boxes so we all have a variety without having to buy 3 kinds ourselves.

    Running hot water through it will help keep it clean for a while. I doubt you'll ever have 20 people using it 5x a day like we do here at work. For home use I dont see it ever becoming a problem.

    I have one and love it. I not only have coffee, but I use it for just hot water when recipe calls for a cup or two.

    It depends... Each cup can take up to 2 minutes to make... but it's nice if everyone wants to try something different.

    Do you put the tea bag in the resuseable cup, or do you use a tea flavored k-cup? I was wondering about this!

    good point. It does create a lot of waste

    I had a keurig, but found it was too hard to get a good variety of decafs that I liked, so I switched to the Aeropress on the advice of a co-worker. It makes the best cup of coffee I've ever had, and I can buy whatever whole bean decaf varieties I like and grind them myself.

    If anybody likes the idea of brewing a single cup of coffee but doesn't want to shell out for a Keurig machine, look into the aeropress. You can get them on Amazon and at some specialty coffee stores.
