K-cup pods

I just purchased a Keriug K-Express ( Walmart Black Friday deal). I would love recommendations for good pods- light-medium- without high sugar content. Thanks in advance!

@lovesfootball I have tried many K cup pods, but always come back to the Krispy Kreme brand. The regular and the decaf are very good and mild. I prefer to add my own coffee creamer if I want a flavor or a sweetener.

My favorite k cup flavor is Dunkin Chocolate Covered Strawberry.

I find mine at Walmart also and only like light to medium roast.

Another delicous flavor is McCafe Irish Mocha.

The scent makes my kitchen smell so good.

I don't add any additional sugar, just a little creamer but can't help you any

I order from Amazon - so many flavors. I love the Christmas blends from Door County Coffee.

@lovesfootball I like the McCafe and I order from Amazon. My DD and DGD love the Green Mountain (Keurig K-cup) Blueberry.

I use Wegman's store brand Donut Shop Blend, light roast. I use coffee mate, but no sugar. It's around $30.00 for 100 pods.

We drink dark roast so I can't give you particulars in the flavor profiles you like but just an idea to check out Angelino's coffee, we have dealt with the company for years and love the different flavors they have as well. Especially the Butter Pecan!

I drink unflavored unsweetened coffee with half and half. My fave brands for medium roast are Tim Hortons, Tullys Hawaiian blend, Krispy Kreme. For light roast, Caribou breakfast blend.
i recently bought the same model Keurig that you did. Love it! You made a good choice.

The absolute best coffee pod that tastes strong and just like brewed coffee is San Francisco Bay. Also water is strained through a fiber filter not plastic. Amazing coffee! We will never drink another brand.....

@GingerHead We drink strong coffee and I have seen these on Amazon. I have been tempted to buy the 100 count. Only thing I wonder about is if they can be used with the keurig supreme machine. It pokes 5 holes in the pod for super rich flavor instead of the traditional 3. I may try a small box first. Thanks for the recommendation...

I don't drink hot coffee only iced coffee. I would check out Keurig website. They have tons of flavors, teas and hot chocolate.

We have the K-mini plus machine and these pods work great. I would think if they work in my small machine they should work in the bigger ones.

If you like strong coffee do yourself a favor and try them (I'm begging you! haha). They really are amazing (best we've and guests have ever had). I also love the fact that the hot water isn't filtered through plastic like it is through all other pods.

But just to be safe I'd try the small pack to make sure they are for you but I'd be surprised if anyone didn't like them.

When I had a keurig this was my absolute favorite and there is less waste. I now have a nespresso espresso machine.

@GingerHead OK yeah I'm gonna definitely try the small box first! My mom always said my coffee was too strong "like drinking asphalt" 😆. She was just so funny - miss ya mom 💜

I agree with Tim Horton and McCafe k-cups.

Folger's makes Black Silk k-cups, which is so smooth. Hate to admit that as I worked for their #1 competitor for 30 years.

I also agree with Wegman's k-cups. I prefer flavored so I lean towards the coconut flavor and chocolate cream. I do not like flavored creamers, just plain old 1/2 & 1/2 or light cream.

I also have a Farberware foamer (about $20 @ Walmart). Use skim milk & heat to foam. Delish in my coffee.

forgot to mention Peets Big Bang medium roast, although a tad more expensive it has a rich flavor. And Newmans Own Special Blend medium roast. What I've done over the past few months is to buy variety boxes of k cups on Amazon. Then I nail down the ones I like the best and buy them separately.
