Can I remove the coffee from Kcup & brew as drip coffee?

It seems a lot of us are through with Keurig.   Me too!

 

I still have kcups. 

 

Can I take the grounds out & use in a regular drip coffee maker?

 

I've been making cold brew coffee this summer.

 

I'm still looking for a decent single cup drip maker.    I know as the weather gets colder I'm going to want a wonderful hot cup of coffee.

@Mary Bailey    I have never tried that...but I guess you could.   I have a Keurig but I think it is on it's last leg.  I really prefer a percolator...it makes a better cup of coffee in my opinion.  And it stays hot much longer than the Keurig.  I have the Farberwear brand.

I love my Keurig, I can't relate.

I gave up on my Kurig after a couple of months.  I went back to using my trusty Cuisinart.

Me three.  I drink just one cup of coffee a day, so I have no need for a pot of coffee.  And hot beverages hurt my mouth, so I don't need my coffee any hotter than the Keurig makes it.  Different strokes for different folks.Smiley Wink

I used to love my Keurig. 

 

I was a tester for the mini.  I had one before that.  The tester lasted so many years that I lost count.

 

I had two minis after the tester that didn't last a year. They wouldn't stay on,  wouldn't get hot enough for a good cup of coffee when they would brew.

 

I wish I had confidence to try another one.

@Mary Bailey   I have a very small Mr. Coffee brewer.  I have had it a long time and I like it.  I take it with me when I travel because it is small.   I need coffee when I wake up or I get grumpy.  LOL

yes you can. measure enough K cup contents to equal what you'd use with other ground coffee. 

 

I love my Ninja coffee bar. I only use it for 1/2 pot and it makes a perfect 1 1/2 mug of coffee. I have a mini Keurig and use that for an afternoon single cup. I have a ton of K cups from Costco, so hope the Keurig holds up!

Maybe buy one at Walmart.   They take anything back.
