...pac, as to the question of whether you need to wait between coffee brewings with the keurig, i would say no. ....
Thanks. I wasn't sure if it would be OK to pour cold water into a machine that had just finished brewing a cup.

I'm fascinated by the one cup brewers but it doesn't make a lot of sense for us. I saw a Cuisinart one-cup that has a small coffee holder that you fill with your own coffee and brew one cup so you don't have to buy the expensive single serving containers. Not sure if it also takes the containers.

You guys just need to cut it out. We've been thinking about getting a Keurig, since we don't drink coffee that much, but do like an occasional cup. Now I'm about over the edge. Next stop, Amazon.com.

The only reason the Keurig crossed my mind is because I saw they offer an 18oz cup now. It is for their travel mug. Since I make 8 cups in the morning (at what, 4oz/cup?), sometimes drinking it all, but usually having a cup leftover for midday or the following morning, that seemed to add some practicality to that type of brewer. An 18oz cup would probably suit me fine in the morning and it I want another midday I can use a single serving size.
But the cost... ouch. I haven't read yet if they make a larger 18oz refillable K cup to use your own grounds.

i too thought a case of 100 k cups would last me like, forever. but, the coffee was so phenomenally good that i first doubled, then tripled, my daily intake of coffee. that first case of coffee k cups ended up lasting two of us less than one month!
these days i spend a few pleasurable hours every month or two bidding on keurig coffee k cups on ebay, and am on the lookout for new brands and flavors to try out with my keurig machine....
it would take us 2 years to go through them! Still, added to my Costco list!
.44 cents per cup!
Hot water to make a cup of broth, don't put a K-Cup in. I've even made a "Cup o'Noodles" with the Keurig.
how was your coffee this morning, pac?
