Not long after our new single serve coffee maker arrived we started brewing up a storm. For the first time ever, my wife and I could just grab whatever flavor we fancied and brew it up in short order. We cleared out the old coffee maker and tried to pack our collection of Green Mountain k cups into the cupboards in some semblance of order. It soon became obvious to us that this was not a very workable solution. We ended up buying a carousel to hold the k cups, a perfect solution for anyone who likes to have a variety of coffees, teas or even cocoa at hand.
Then we got to thinking about other possibly useful accessories for our new single serve coffee maker. We had a pound or two of ground coffee still in the cupboards, a bag of whole beans in the pantry and another in the freezer. We couldn't just throw all of it away! It got us wondering if there was some way we could use all of our remaining coffee with the Keurig. I noticed that one of the most common items sold with the model we bought was the Keurig K Cup reusable coffee filter. This is an obvious, and ingenious necessity for anyone with a single serve brewer. It holds a couple of tablespoons of coffee, and really is pretty easy to take apart and clean. Definitely more hassle than the K Cup, but we feel better that we aren't wasting any of our coffee. One minor issue is that there is a bit of splashing where the coffee comes out the bottom, but it's not too big a deal.
So in a short couple of weeks, we managed to completely change the way we brew coffee and learn about a few accessories as well.
