So it’s the semi-annual shite on Keurig thread?

I’ve got one at the house and a single serve in my classroom.

Been using it since 2010. The coffee you buy is much more important than the type of machine.

Trader Joe’s k cups = paradise.
Member’s Mark = good enough.

Pay some money for decent coffee and you’ll be fine with a Keurig.

Also, I have a K-15 single serve and a the older version of a 2.0. No complaints. It isn’t nasty and moldy either. We run vinegar through it every so often.

The quality of coffee is fine it's my keurig machine that always craps out. Works good for less than a year and then really slow and partial cups. I live using k cups but I'd like to go another route on my next purchase.

So is the Ninja coffee bar really a good one? Thinking about throwing my keurig out and ordering one


It’s great for fast, pretty decent coffee. My wife uses it everyday. I’m not an everyday coffee guy, so when I do drink it, I take the 4 minutes and use my fresh press.

Have you tried taking off the nozzle and cleaning it? They get clogged with grounds sometimes.

Yes. Ran vinegar through it like the YouTube videos and friends suggested. Seems to be a trend with keurigs. I like the quick cup/k cup thing but I could have bought a commercial grade Starbucks machine for all the money I've blown on keurigs

I had a Keurig for a few years and it finally gave up the ghost. I got a french press for weekends and a 4 cup Mr Coffee for weekdays and I haven't missed the Keurig.

Microwave setting on beverage settles me for tea drinking.
