And this is why I moved to using a reusable k-cup at home (when I don't have the time/desire to make a full pot)
- Zigurd 13y agoI KNEW someone would say that. How is that more convenient than a one-cup filter cone? I must be missing something that's really attractive about the k-cup machines.
- freehunter 13y ago1) They're well designed. Industrial design is important, as the rise of Ultrabooks and Apple has shown. 2) They have a fairly high end but affordable brand name. You either have a coffee maker or you have a Keurig. 3) It makes it convenient to try new flavors. My drip coffee machine won't make me a chai latte or hot cider at the touch of a button. My Keurig can, while also providing me with good coffee from a reusable k-cup. 4) Marketing makes sure they're everywhere and everyone has access to them.
- bdcravens 13y agoGood variety, virtually no cleanup, no measuring of coffee. Not the cheapest option, or the best tasting coffee, but a great solution for me.
