How We Discovered the Single Cup Coffee Maker
my family is pretty much just like most other standard American families. We enjoy our youngsters, try hard and attempt to enjoy our time off with family and friends. We’ve always enjoyed a great coffee in the morning and maybe even after dinner. For years we did what everybody else did, buy ground coffee brands, dump the grounds in a filter, stick it in the brewer and wait for 8 cups or so to pour through. Then we started purchasing entire beans, which required the purchase of a grinder. Fun for a bit, but sloppy.
Then one evening my wife and I were at a friend’s house for dinner and they offered us a cup. When asked what I preferred I just pointed to the fact that I would have whatever everyone else wanted. Our buddy opened the cupboard and showed us a variety of small cups, each packed with enough coffee for a single cup… Dark roasts, breakfast mixes, you say it. She then pointed towards the corner of the kitchen and introduced us to the single cup coffee maker. I afterwards learned that this was a Keurig model. One of a few made by folks that invented what’s called the’K Cup’ system.
the subsequent morning when we started the process of brewing another pot of coffee the inescapable conversation started about what we had found the evening before. We both loved coffee. We did not always agree on what variety we wanted on a given morning. We didn’t always drink the whole pot. And we were both a bit tired of the mess and hassle concerned in brewing a bowl of coffee ( yeah… We can be a little lazy in the morning… First one out of bed makes the coffee ). So I cracked open the laptop PC and started doing a little analysis on single cup coffee makers. I guarantee you, I’m taking my time when taking a look at products. After a day or 2 of looking and debating I settled on 1 or 2 brands. You can see the options I considered below. These are all excellent options and took considerable time ( and more than 1 or 2 eye rolls from my bride ) for me to sort through the options. I ultimately ordered the Keurig B70 single cup coffee maker. Feature for feature the best single cup coffee maker I could find.
