Folks mention the high cost of a cup of Keurig coffee but don't flinch when drinking their beer, wine, liquor, smoking and even a cup of coffee in a restaurant.
We all have vices and pay for them in some way. :)
I have no qualms with the high cost of the K-cups. If folks want to pay it, then so be it. But for me, I'd at least like to know that I'm getting a good tasting, high quality product for that much money...which is something that Keurig has yet to be able to provide.
Don't get the impression that we're a bunch of hippie tree-huggers...but...we choose FRESH roasted organic beans, and our preference is a Sumatran or Kenyan bean. We grind it daily (usually that's me at about 5:30 AM) and normally only make enough for that day's coffee. We use the Technivorm coffee maker, which I linked too earlier in this thread. There is actually a science behind making coffee, and several factors that make the difference between "great" and "good". There are very few coffee makers on the market that are capable of making "great" coffee. Nothing I've ever had from a Keurig machine (either the high end models or the cheap ones) is hardly worth being called "coffee".
Now that we're WAAAAYYYY off topic, I could launch into a rant about our so-called "disposable culture", but I like using paper plates when I'm camping so I won't self-judge.
