naval23 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) I just want something simple that will make me a cup of coffee conveniently and I'm not too picky about the quality of my coffee (I love McDonald's coffee and not looking for Starbucks quality) Just wondering any Keurig owners if you think the purchase was worth it?

Revolution Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Nespresso is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadonnasBoyfriend Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Of course dahling. I switched to tea tho. It's what it sounds like fresh cup of coffee ☕. Try French vanilla k cups from dunkin donuts. So good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildAmerican Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 just got one and it's pretty good, still need to experiment with different types of kcups/creamers tho. nice to have coffee at home when i'm working remotely and if it's cold and I don't want to leave my place lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
americanlife Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 The Keurig doesn't make enough coffee and the K-cups are expensive. You're better off using a reusable K-cup with your own coffee grounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lipgloss Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Just use a pourover. Inexpensive and easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makeme Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Keurig coffee is weak and doesn't make a lot per pod. And the reusable pods always leaks coffee grounds into the coffee. I would recommend getting a small traditional drip coffee machine and just getting ground coffee/coffee filters. You will save money on a cheaper machine + Quote If you make three cups a day, 365 days a year, that adds up to around $723 spent on K-Cups, versus $307 for regular coffee brewers. This is the machine I use it was 40$ https://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-DCC-450BK-Coffeemaker-Stainless-Steel-Carafe/dp/B0000A1ZMS/ref=sr_1_6?crid=GGUDBKYLPZKY&keywords=cuisinart+coffee&qid=1668479801&sprefix=cuisinart+coffee+%2Caps%2C200&sr=8-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think a Keurig is better. I use a Keurig for the convenience but have a French press for when I want something high quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMKARDASHIAN Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) I drink too much coffee to only use a Keurig. My bf has one and I have a traditional coffee maker and if I have a casual morning, I’ll make a pot but if we’re going somewhere I’ll use the keurig for a quick cup edit: didn’t even bother reading the title in full before replying Keurig>>>instant all day Edited November 15, 2022 by PMKARDASHIAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinyshimmery Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I have a keurig k-supreme and use it almost daily. I prepare my coffee using donut shop coffee k-cups, a splash of califia vanilla oatmilk creamer, and a splash of chobani zero sugar plain oatmilk. If you don't have super high expectations for how you take your coffee, it's worth it. It's a no hassle way of making fresh coffee daily and it tastes good. I would buy the k cups in bulk at like costco or sams though bc them things are expensive if you get the smaller packs at any grocery store.

Gladiator Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 (edited) If you decide going the Keurig route, I recommend instead just getting an espresso machine. It's more expensive up front, but cheaper in the long term. Those cups get hella expensive over the months/years. My favorite kitchen appliance is a Terra Kaffe.

EriKills Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Idk but my Keurig coffee always tastes too strong, it’s still way better than instant coffee but I think the traditional coffee made from a pot using ground coffee tastes way better.

Sombre Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 McDonalds has one of the best coffee, actually. Their roasts taste better than Starbuck's imo, especially their dark roast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
