Boop, I get so many coffees that I never heard of from Big Lots! The latest were Moon Pie k-cups.

Just curious: what was the appeal of a Keurig if you don't drink coffee?

Get your flu shot...because I didn't.

I use my machine for coffee but I have never liked the k cups for hot chocolate! I just use the hot water from the machine and use a packet of hot chocolate like Swiss Miss etc! With some marshmallows of course!

The problem with using tea bags in place of K-cups is that they aren't being steeped. Tea bags need to be steeped for at least five minutes to get the full flavor of the tea.

I do let the tea steep before drinking just as I would if using hot water from a kettle.

For hot chocolate, hot and iced tea and spiced cider.

A very wise choice, boop!

If my Keurig died today, I would have another one tonight.

I have used my Keurig for about 5-6 yrs. I always use the my K-cup. And have been using Starbucks gold, Dunkin Donuts original blend and some of the milder roasts from coffeeam.com.
