My First Keurig

At first I was skeptical when a good friend mentioned that I have to buy a single cup of Coffee Keurig Brewer. Greg, who unfortunately lives out of town, is the same friend that the opinion of most trusted. With a little research online and lots of guarantees by him, I decided to buy the Special Edition B60 Single Cup. Now, with the machine and its many varieties of coffee, tea and cocoa packets in my possession, I was ready to start the preparation.
Since my past consisted of only having multiple cup of Drip Coffee, I was excited to make my days of sludge age chugging hours were over. I have always despised making a jug full of four, eight or twelve cups of coffee a day, only to pour away most hours later. What a waste. At present, my life has changed with the Keurig single cup, brewing a good cup of hot coffee or tea time. It has been 10 years since the introduction of innovative Keurig brewing a single cup system. Sometimes I'm slow in implementing new developments and Keurig is no exception. Since you can not catch up, I'll go ahead with my big variety of coffees, teas and cocoas and start making some delicious sweets.
Let's start first with the type of water to use. Tap water is fine, however I suggest bottled spring water if you want a better tasting coffee. Then you must buy the patented Keurig K-cups. They offer over 190 varieties of coffee, tea and Hot Chocolate. The varieties of Coffee From light to Extra Bold flavored, decaf, half the caffeine, caffeine full mixes all from famous name. Several different varieties of tea are also available, and Ghirardelli Premium Hot Cocoa. My favorites included Emerils Big Easy Bold Coffee with deep smoky flavor crisp, and the Celestial Seasonings Decaffeinated Green Tea with its mild flavor and natural goodness using a compound that occurs naturally in tea leaves. I have found the body of this drink green tea a delight at night, it relaxes me before bedtime.
Now that decision has been made of coffee or tea, all you have to do is turn on the coffee, and fill with desired amount of water. The brewer will be advised of the proper amount of water in the machine. Place cup under a unique service, choose your cup size and hit brew button. Wow, this is simple! In less than a minute and Keurig, when the cup of coffee or tea is ready. After using the Coffee Cup manufacturer recommends, you can rinse the machine of brewing a cup of hot water without a K-cup. This ensures a perfect cup of the next person can choose a different flavor. This is especially useful Keurig Coffee for the office. Speaking of office, now I know where I will put my second Keurig Coffee . If I only had a summer house. Before I forget, I once again thank Greg for another great recommendation.
