Over the last few years Keurig machines have became so popular that most homes, hotels and businesses all have one. And, the best thing about Keurig coffee makers is that there is a wide variety of k-cup pods to please anyone’s taste buds. “K-cup flavors for Keurig”
To name a few different varieties, I have found coffee pods, hot chocolate ones, teas and much more.
Why is a Keurig a good idea!
I believe that Keurig had a good idea when they developed the single serve k-cups, because not all of us are coffee lovers. There are 6 people in my household and not all of us (including me, lol) like coffee.
I have truly tried to develop taste of coffee, but I can’t get past the bitter taste.
Many ones have I tried, from different flavor profiles like breakfast blends, light roast, medium roast coffee, french vanilla and popular brands, but they all have a coffee taste, LOL. I believe that I’m just destined to never like coffee!
Of course, we all like going to a cute little coffee shop and I’m so grateful that they sell more than coffee drinks. Thankfully, I can order a chai latte, brown sugar chia latte, dark chocolate latte, hot cocoa, green tea, Earl Grey tea, or a black tea.
Today, the options are endless.
However, with our Keurig we can all have our favorite drink and none is wasted, because we can brew one cup at a time. In this post, I will tell you of some best k-cups (coffee) along with non-coffee Keurig k-cups.
First, let’s talk about what a Keurig machine is. Wikipedia describes a Keurig as a beverage brewing system for home and commercial use. The machines are manufactured by the American company Keurig Dr Pepper.
The main Keurig products are: K-Cup pods, which are single-serve coffee containers; other beverage pods; and the proprietary machines that use these pods to make beverages.
How does a Keurig brewer work? I love the convenient way that a Keurig works. This machines pushes water thru a brew process and forces water through a k-cup and this speeds up the brewing process to seconds.
Is Keurig coffee the same as regular coffee? No, Keurig coffee and regular coffee are not the same. Regular coffee is made with a drip coffee maker which is brewed in a pot of many servings.
The Keurig is a great way to make coffee, because it’s a single-serve coffee maker with single-serve pods and so it makes one fresh brewed coffee at a time. Or, of course, teas or hot cocoas.
Can you run Keurig with just water? The Keurig can be used as an instant hot water dispenser for teas or soups. After the hot water has been dispensed just add your tea bag or instant soup to the hot water.
Do you need to add water to a Keurig? Yes, each time that you brew water you will need to add fresh water. Distilled water is the best water for your Keurig, so to give you the great taste of your favorite drink.
