- serpestrilvith 8y agoYeah, we had them at my last office. They were made of a paper lid, fiber bag like filter for the grounds, and then a small ring of compostable plastic for rigidity. Worked great, but even more expensive than the normal K-cups. We ended up going back to making big pots of coffee because it's easy enough, cheap, and usually tastier.
