Who has a Keurig Coffee maker?

That is what I will do, when traveling the Kuerig will be in the sink, probably on a towel or two.

I left the Kuerig plug-in so it would be 'ready to brew' 1st thing in the morning but 1 night the DW unplugged it to plug in an electric heater.

I got up and thought -poop, it will be awhile before it will be ready to brew. So I plugged it back in and in no time at all I saw it was Ready To Brew. I bet it was ready in about 60 seconds.

Now I am easy to buy Christmas gifts for. So far I have two wrapped packages that are shaped like a 12 - 14 K-Cup boxes.

What else do I have to do? Pain is relative I guess.

I have 4 of the Keurig Platinum Elite models. 1 in the S&B in Ohio, 1 in the S&B in Alaska, 1 in the RV and 1 in my office.

I even have a single cup Kuerig brewer I travel with when staying in motels. I'm definitely spoiled

I am up north for Christmas and the Keurig is in the 5th.wheel in Florida. Yes - I miss it and can see that we need at least two. One in the trailer and 1 in the S&B.

But 4 - I guess that makes sense if you add an office and a S&B in Alaska.

Talk about easy clean coffee !!! The guy who invented this should be a billionaire for sure !!!

Well said! It is our ritual!

We have both a 12 cup drip coffee maker and a Keurig. We make a full pot in the morning, and use the Keurig other times that we just want a cup or two. You can buy the re-usable "as seen on tv" single cup thingies and use your own coffee out of the big container. You just have to make room somewhere for all of your necessities.

We have one and love, love, love it..... Coffee, Hot Chocolate, tea.... Quick and easy and takes very little counter space.... We have the one with the water reservoir... Didn't want to fool with the one cup at a time thing....

I resisted the Keurigs for the longest time due to the cost of the cups. Then a friend said, you can get one of these and still use your fresh coffee beans. My last regular coffee maker was on its way out so I went and bought two Keurigs, one for home and one for the RV (didn't want to carry it back and forth).

So I can again enjoy my DD coffee beans ground fresh daily and it keeps my per cup price waaaaay down.

What I have found out though is the Keurig unit does NOT like a MSW inverter. The clock goes crazy on it. When I'm on shore power, no problem. I'll be fixing that with a PSW inverter soon, but just didn't see anyone make note of that in the thread yet.

My daughter and hubby have had a Keurig for some years and swear by it. I have yet to get a good cup of coffee from it. ;-)

(Don't tell her I said that!)

Hundreds of cups from a pound? Good Lord! That doesn't even qualify as "coffee".!! ;-)

We have 2. We just put one in storage. I wont drink anything else now.

I just returned the one that I bought back to Costco for a full refund.

I prefer a foamy creamy cup of coffee that my Senseo provides versus the watery cup that the Keurig pours out.

Just my personal preference.

We have one and love it. I am moving it back and forth between the RV and the house but plan to purchase one for the RV soon. Best and most consistent tasting cup of coffee I have ever made.

[Dasmoeturhead]

It makes coffee not lattes. And it makes dang good regular coffee
