Keurig K-Cup

The advantages of K-cups include an airtight seal and cup which locks out light, oxygen, and humidity (all of which adversely affect coffee flavor), a pure paper filter, as well as the ideal grind and measure for that variety of coffee or tea. In fact the patented Keurig K-cup is actually a highly engineered, technologically advanced mini-brewer. Timothy's sources pure origin coffee from countries around the world who grow specialty grade Arabica beans. Only, the top 1-5% of any harvest will meet their strict standards for quality. This light roasted blend owns a smooth, easy-going flavor, made complex with the sweet, aromatic Costa Rican and smoky Guatemalan coffee beans.

Single cup coffee brewing systems are growing in popularity and there are several reasons why they are attracting coffee lovers. There is quite a variety of machines available now and making a choice will take thought and evaluation. Some machines use coffee packaged in paper 'pods'. The freshness of the pods can not always be assured and the available blends will vary from machine to machine. A few can use interchangeable pods but the Tassimo Single Cup system can only brew coffee using a T-Disc. All Keurig One Cup brewing systems use K-Cups, which are small containers of vacuum packed coffee, available in a variety of blends and flavors.

• Every cup is served hot and fresh.

• It's ideal for coffee drinkers who each like different types of coffee.

• Compare the cost of K-cups and pods.
• Compare the cost of using pods or K-Cups with the money wasted when you dump undrinkable, stale coffee.
• Compare the cost of purchasing bags of coffee beans for variety vs. the cost of the variety you can get with K-Cups or pods.
