Keurig Coffee Brewers

At the end of June, my wife and I purchased a Keurig B40, single cup coffee brewer. I'm a huge huge fan of coffee and I particularly like a good bold/dark blend. Some people may see these units as a waste of money etc... considering that you can generally get a coffee pot pretty cheap and bulk coffee and filters pretty cheap. The problem is that I am the primary coffee drinker in our house. During the week, I get my fill of coffee at work. On the weekends, in order for me get a cup of coffee I had to make a full pot. Normally I'd drink about half of the pot. The rest was just wasted. There's also the times I wanted a cup after a good meal. Once again, I would have to make a full pot.

So in June we took a vacation to my mom and dad's house. I woke up and my mother fixed me a cup in their Keurig. From that moment, I was in love. My wife and I began looking at all of the options, varieties of K-Cups, and accessories. Once we researched it enough, we bought one. After a month of having one, we love it. Its nice to get up in the mornings, fix a single cup, and go on my way. On the weekends its really nice to have a cup or two and be done. My wife has even gotten into drinking several different flavored coffee varieties. We also purchased the dark chocolate hot chocolate for the occasional hot chocolate fix.

Its been a great experience. If you are on the fence about getting a unit, consider this:
  • No More wasting coffee
  • You can get the 'My K-Cup' unit that allows you to put in your own coffee
  • There are a ton of varieties of coffee so you can definitely find something you like
  • They also have hot-teas available
  • Amazon.com, bigcatcoffees.com, keurig.com all post specials

Believe me, once you get one and taste some of the premium blends that are available, you'll never go back.
